Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort

Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie talked on and on, trying to persuade Charlotte to return to Northridge.

Charlotte could not bring herself to turn them down, but she knew it was not a good idea to go back now. She was afraid she would fall for Zachary again. She would be in for huge trouble if that happened.

She was fine with how things were at the moment. She kept her distance and they were on good terms.

“Do you guys know this is where Grandpa used to live?” Charlotte told the children, trying to change the topic.

“Mommy and Mrs. Berry used to live here as well. We took a lot of photos together. Do y’all want to have a look?”

“Yes!” Charlotte managed to spark the children’s interest. “We want to see it, Mommy.”

“Great, but we’ll do that later. I need to run some errands now. Why not y’all play with Alpha, Beta, and Gamma first? I’ll show you guys the photos in a bit.”

“But…” The children stopped, looking at Zachary.

“Daddy said y’all can stay for the weekend and leave tomorrow night,” Charlotte assured the children.

“Yay!” The three kids leaped in joy when they knew they could stay over.
