Chapter 1259
After exiting the bathroom, Charlotte quickly changed into a set of champagne-colored clothes before leading
Lupine and Morgan to the study room.
There were many people waiting outside the study room as well as on the staircase. It seemed like they were going
out in a while.
Louis walked over from the opposite end of the corridor. When he saw Charlotte, he grabbed her hand and
murmured, “Charlotte, I know that they've told Dad and Mom about what happened that day. Don't be scared if
they try to make things difficult for you. I'll protect you.”
Charlotte stared at Louis as complicated emotions swirled in her heart. He still did not know that his parents had
already confronted her the day before, and she had dealt with them all by herself.
Until now, he's still worried about me and is afraid that I'll be wronged by his own parents.
Charlotte was grateful for his love and protection. The more he acted that way, the harder it was for her to tell him
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe truth.
“Also, there are many important guests today. Dad, Mom, and I will be greeting them later, and they might be
discussing with you about tomorrow's wedding. If they say anything upsetting, don't take it to heart. I'll deal with it,
okay?”
Louis was worried on behalf of Charlotte; he was worried that Danrique might not be able to make it and that his
parents would say cruel things to her. That was why he was hoping to prepare her for the worst.
His kindness only made the guilt in Charlotte grow. The longer she was in the situation, the more she felt that her
choice had hurt him.
At the same time, she felt that she could not let things continue going down the wrong path.
“Louis, actually-” Just as Charlotte was about to say something, the door to the room opened, and they heard Avril's
voice. “Sir Louis, Ms. Lindberg, Sir Robert has asked you both to enter.”
Charlotte swallowed the words that had been at the tip of her tongue before entering the room.
Meanwhile, Louis had an arm around her waist as if he was protecting her from all danger.
In the study room, both Robert and Sherlyn were already seated on the couch, dressed to their nines.
The two had similar furrowed brows, and they looked grim. They had been whispering to each other but stopped
when Charlotte and Louis entered.
“Dad, Mom,” Louis greeted.
“Sir Robert. Lady Sherlyn.” Charlotte bowed.
“Have a seat,” Robert said in a relatively light-hearted tone.
“Louis, you'll sit here.” Sherlyn pointed at the couch beside her.
“Mom,” Louis started, wanting to say something else. However, Robert shot him a look, and he had no choice but to
sit by his mother.
In the meantime, Charlotte sat down on the couch opposite them. When she looked at the Laurents in front of her,
she felt as if she was a criminal, waiting to be interrogated.
“Have you contacted your brother?” Robert asked instantly.
“No,” Charlotte replied. “Sir Robert, please speak your mind.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBehind her, Lupine tightened her hold on the bag. If Robert and Sherlyn were to force Charlotte to continue with the
wedding, or if they tried to make things tough for Charlotte because of Zachary's matter, they would launch a
counterattack with the video they had.
Instead of replying immediately, Robert raised the cup of coffee in front of him and sipped it.
“This marriage isn't just between you and Louis. It's between the Lindbergs and the Laurents,” Sherlyn uttered
arrogantly. “Mr. Lindberg plays an important role in this. If he's not here, then we cannot continue with the
wedding.”
After a pause, she continued, “Therefore, we've decided to postpone the wedding until we get into contact with Mr.
Lindberg again. Only then will we redecide on a date.”
Both Lupine and Morgan were flummoxed by Sherlyn's announcement.
Even Charlotte was surprised. She thought they were going to force her to continue with the wedding. Lo and
behold, to her surprise, they were actually suggesting postponing the wedding.
Nevertheless, Charlotte knew that it was because Robert and Sherlyn did not want to take the risk. After all, the
marriage of a member of the royal family would have to be a grand one.
If Danrique had fallen from grace, then there was no way they would still want Charlotte as their daughter-in-law.
