Nevertheless, Zachary ignored Charlotte and quietly stared outside the window. It was as though what
she thought meant nothing to him.
Nevertheless, Zachary ignored Charlotte and quietly stared outside the window. It was as though what
she thought meant nothing to him.
His disinterest in what she said made Charlotte even more agitated. Her brows knitted as she figured
that it was a bad idea to get into an all-out argument with the man in front of her.
Charlotte took a deep breath. “A lot has happened in my family,” she explained in a calm and gentle
manner. “The kids lack a sense of security. It is imperative that I be home right now. I'll keep you
company when Mrs. Berry comes back, okay?”
“And when will that be?” Zachary finally said something. Even though he sounded cold, he was still
giving Charlotte a chance to communicate with him.
“It won't be long. I'll have to ask Dr. Langhan for the specifics.” Charlotte was observing Zachary's
reaction. “Besides, I'm finally working tomorrow. We can still see each other at the office.”
“The office?” Zachary slowly eased closer to her, his hand slipping under the dress to explore about.

Charlotte knew what he was thinking about and quickly explained, “I said see each other. Not, that...”
“Don't lie.” Zachary bit her earlobe. His warm breath was fanning the smoldering fire within her. “Your
body is more honest than your mouth.”
“Zachary... “
Before Charlotte could say anything, Zachary stopped her.
His cold lips exerted full dominance as they pried her lips apart, infiltrating and invading every available
space there was between her lips.
Charlotte was helpless against his kiss. She could do nothing but let him have his ways with her.
Because of her nerves, Charlotte's petite body was shivering in Zachary's arms.
Sitting at the front of the car, Ben could sense that something was going on at the back, so he quietly
pulled the curtains shut.
The bodyguard that was driving was Marino, which was the same as last time. Like what happened last
time, his hands were trembling on the steering wheel, and his face was flushed.
“Ahem!” Ben cleared his throat and quietly scolded. “Focus on driving.”
“Yes!” Marino responded and quietly said, “Mr. Nacht seems to like to do this in the car.”
“It's exciting I guess.” Ben answered casually.
“Huh?” Marino did not get it.
“Don't ask. Just keep your eyes on the road,” Ben replied coldly.
“Okay!”
“Fine. I'll let you off the hook this time.”
Zachary did not go any further, reluctantly letting Charlotte go at the crucial moment. He placed his
forehead on hers and held her face with one hand, quietly calming himself down.
Meanwhile, Charlotte panted heavily like a fish out of water.
“You need to follow orders. Got it?” Zachary bit her ear.
“Got it.” Charlotte nodded obediently. She knew that she needed to listen to everything Zachary said so
that she and the kids could live peacefully.
With his personality, he'll get bored soon enough. When that time comes, I'll bring Mrs. Berry and the
kids to another city and start over.
“Head over to Happy Avenue!” Zachary demanded all of a sudden.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yes, sir.” The two men in the front looked at each other and let out a sigh of relief.
Marino immediately turned the car around and headed to Happy Avenue.
The two locations were not that far apart. It only took a little over ten minutes before they reached
Happy Avenue.
Ben then got out of the car and opened the door for Charlotte while Marino opened the trunk and took
out all the shopping bags. “Ms. Windt!” He handed it to her respectfully.
“Do you need me to go up with you?” Ben asked.
“It's fine. I can take it from here.” Charlotte turned towards Zachary. “Thank you for sending me home.
Good night!”
Somehow, Zachary was caught off guard by Charlotte's courtesy as he looked at her. “Sure. Get going
now!” He replied casually.
Charlotte immediately hurried away as though she just received an order, quickening into a run shortly
after. She was eager to see her children.
At the same time, Zachary kept his eyes on her through the rearview mirror. When will she act the
same way and run towards me this way...
