Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1387

Zachary continued to be in and out of sleep for the rest of the day. Whenever he woke up, he’d only ask for the time and the well-being of his children and Charlotte before going back to sleep again.

Because of that, he hadn’t eaten anything except for the sips of water when he took his medicine.

It was past nine at night when Zachary roused from his sleep and once again asked if Charlotte had returned.

Ben remained calm and collected as he replied, “Lupine informed me that they’d be staying at Mount Phoenix for a couple more days. Ms. Lindberg was very worried about your injuries and even asked me how you were doing. I assured her that you’re all right and recovering well—”

“No. Don’t tell her about my condition,” Zachary firmly instructed.

“Okay, okay, I got it.”

Fortunately, Ben knew the right words to say so it wouldn’t arouse Zachary’s suspicions. It also helped that Zachary was too out of sorts to detect Ben’s lies.

“Don’t call too much either, or Charlotte will suspect something…” Zachary mumbled, his eyes getting heavier by the second. “Remember to inform me when she’s back.”

“I know. Stop worrying and go to sleep,” Ben said as he adjusted the blanket.
