Lupine got home and reported everything about Ben to Charlotte.
Charlotte knitted her brows and responded in disbelief. “Are you sure? You mean I was wrong?”
“I don't think he lied.” Lupine thought about it. “But before they left, I did feel there was something weird
about Mr. Nacht...”
“Continue to monitor and test them,” Charlotte ordered. “Try asking him out again tomorrow.”
Lupine nodded and consoled Charlotte. “Don't worry, Ms. Lindberg. No news is good news. Perhaps
there's nothing wrong with Mr. Nacht?”
“I hope so.” Charlotte let out a sigh. “I'm afraid he's keeping things from me.”
“You still care for him.” Lupine could tell. “And I think he cares for you too. Why don't you two get back
together?”
“It's easier said than done.” Charlotte sighed. “Besides, there are still many obstacles that get in our
way...”
“What obstacles?” Lupine was puzzled. “Since Mr. Henry is not around anymore, no one can stop the
two of you from getting back together anymore.”
“Whatever that has happened in the past, I can't just let them be bygones,” Charlotte uttered with a
bitter smile. “Our feuds may be in the past, but the pain remains.”
Besides, it's not just a relationship problem but a feud between the Nachts and Linbergs. I'm in no
position to say or do anything at this point. What would others think of me if I return to the Nacht familywhen Danrique is still missing? And what if Danrique returns?
“You're right.” Lupine did not know what else to say anymore.
“It's getting late. Go and get some rest.” Charlotte gently patted her shoulder.
Lupine nodded. “You too. Remember don't wet your injured hand. Call us if you need any help.”
“Got it.”
The room quietened down once again after Lupine had left.
Charlotte lay on the bed and could not sleep.
Everything that had happened today flashed across her mind, and she remembered how agitated
Zachary was when she got injured. The way he looked her in the eyes had stirred her emotions.
Charlotte could feel the love he had for her, but she did not have the courage to start afresh with him.
Despite not being able to get back together with him, she still wanted the best for him.

Zachary, who also had trouble falling asleep, sat alone in the dark. The room was so quiet that the only
sound in it was his breathing.
The hours gradually ticked away yet he was still wide awake.
He was afraid that he might not wake up had he fallen asleep.
It was the first time Zachary's vision was lost entirely ever since he fell ill three months ago. Though he
had regained his vision, he felt his time on earth was running out.He was worried.
Before I die, I must make all the arrangements properly. I must make sure my family, career, children,
and Charlotte are all taken care of even when I'm gone!
He believed everything was under his control, but not Charlotte. He did not know what to do with her.
Just when he was deep in thoughts, Ben knocked on the door. “I'm back.”
“Come in,” Zachary responded.
Ben apologized and entered the room slowly. He then reported the conversation he had with Lupine to
him. “It was clear that she was testing me, but I didn't say anything.”
“You would have told her had I not reminded you, wouldn't you?” Zachary questioned him.
Ben lowered his head and kept mum. He dared not lie as he knew Zachary could read his mind.
