Chapter 1193


    At these words, Sherlyn paused her action of cutting her steak and her expression froze. Nevertheless,


    she recovered instantly and smiled. “You must spend more time together now that you will married


    soon.”


    “Yes, of course.” Charlotte smiled. “Louis and I have been friends for many years. We had always spent


    time together.”


    “That''s right,” Louis confirmed. “Mom, we...”


    “What''s right?” Sherlyn interrupted her son and spoke in a disapproving manner, “The time together I

    meant is not the same as friendship. You are so grown up now. You should know.”


    She pretended to scold her son but those words were meant for Charlotte.


    Louis was dumbfounded not knowing why his mom seemed mad at him.


    “In matters of the heart, it is better to let feelings grow naturally,” Charlotte exined inly.


    “Doing things in haste could have negative effects.”


    Charlotte emphasized the meaning of doing things in haste.


    Sherlyn quickly understood what she meant. She thought she was being discreet but Charlotte had


    seen through her veiled message without embarrassing her.


    “To you, Lady Sherlyn” Charlotte raised her ss to Sherlyn with a graceful smile.


    Sherlyn quickly pulled herself together and raised her ss to her. “Charlotte, as his mother, I wish you


    both well. After all, your marriage is not just between two people but rather involves two ns.”


    These words were meant as a hint to remind Charlotte that her responsibilities were heavy.


    “Lady Sherlyn, you are right.” Charlotte drained her ss and continued with a smile, “My elder cousin,


    Danrique is also in favor of this marriage because he believes Louis is a straightforward and honest


    man whom I can trust.”


    “That is absolutely true.” Sherlyn smiled in contentment.


    “For our safety, he has sent his trusted man over to us.” Charlotte continued to say, “Don''t you know?


    Gordon is Danrique''s bodyguard.”


    Sherlyn was shocked by this revtion. This would mean that everything that happened here would be


    known by Danrique.


    “Danrique has been busytely so I dare not bother him. I shall seek his forgiveness in a few days,”


    Charlotte spoke with a voice full of guilt. “I have promised to take care of his three children. We have


    been here only a few days and Alpha actually went missing. If he knew about this, I''m afraid he would


    be furious.”


    “This... I am also responsible for this.”


    Sherlyn was a little wary. Charlotte was telling her that not only did she know whatever tricks she was


    up to, but Danrique was aware too.


    “It was not your fault, but rather, my staff did not do her duty well,” Charlotte quickly replied. “Anyway,


    that was an ident. Fortunately, nothing bad happened. Just make sure it does not happen again in


    the future.”


    “No, it won''t happen again. I have improved the security measures and installed surveince cameras


    so that it will not happen again,” Louis exined quickly.


    “Louis is absolutely right,” Sherlyn added, “I have instructed my maids to be careful and vignt about


    the children''s safety whenever they are around them.”


    “Thank you.” Charlotte smiled.


    “I''m done. Now, I''ll go and get ready for my treatment,” Charlotte put down her cutlery and said to


    Louis. “Louis, remember to take your medicine and then rest well.”


    “Yeah.” Louis nodded.


    Charlotte curtsied to Sherlyn and then got up and left...


    Sherlyn gazed at her with an expression that was tooplicated to describe...


    “Mommy, I''m taking my leave too.” Louis left the table too.


    Sherlyn finally released her anger, mmed her wine ss on the table and left in a fury...


    Back in her room, Diana muttered softly, “Isn''t it true that we can''t judge a book by its cover. Ms.


    Lindberg looks so young but she is unexpectedly a master of words, warning us with every word she


    uttered.”
