Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort

“What do you mean?” Charlotte glared at him.

“After doing all you can to escape from the Laurent family, now you want to go back to him?” Zachary demanded irritably. “Did you forget what he did to you just after a few weeks? What is inside that heart of yours? It must be filthy and foolish.”

“You’re nuts.” Charlotte didn’t want to waste time arguing with him. “It’s none of your business,” she declared heatedly.

You’re a down-and-out socialite from the Lindberg family, so the Laurent family won’t be nice to you. You’ll merely invite death if this goes on.”

“She’s my fiancée! Let her go now!” Louis roared like a ferocious beast.
