Chapter 1130

The room was suddenly filled with tension.

This was the first time Danrique flared his temper at Charlotte.

All this while, he had only corrected her whenever she made a mistake.

Even in H City, he would make short criticisms of her.

In fact, he had never had so much to say in the last twenty years.

He was one to do things decisively.



If it was anyone else, he would have cast them aside a long time ago.

Only Charlotte had managed to challenge his threshold which he had long tolerated.



However, he was furious when he realized that she was being indecisive.

Therefore, he put his foot down and gave her a final warning.

“The only reason I allowed you to bring the children back to the Lindberg residence is on the account of
Aunt Isabella.” Danrique added, “Or else, given how incompetent you are, I would have kicked you out
long ago even if you’re my own sister.”

“I am sorry…”

Other than those three words, Charlotte didn’t know what else to say.



“I’ll give you three days’ time to consider your answer to the Laurent family,” Danrique ordered in an
intimidating manner. “Do you hear me?”

“Yes, I did.” Charlotte nodded.

Collecting his gaze, Danrique dismissed her with a wave.

With than Sean escorted her out.

As they walked down the spiral staircase, Sean muttered softly, “Ms. Lindberg, actually, Mr. Lindberg’s
actions have your best interests at heart.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Charlotte nodded dejectedly. “I know. He has tried to find me-”

“Not just that.” Sean looked behind him before leaning over. “He wants you to marry Sir Louis because
Lindberg Corporation is in a crisis. He is worried that you will be dragged along with it…”

“What?” Charlotte was stunned. “What happened?”

“Shh…” Sean raised his finger to his lips to signal her not to alert the others.

“What happened?” Lowering her voice, Charlotte inquired further.

“There are some matters you are better off not knowing.” Sean furrowed his eyebrows and explained, “All
this while, Mr. Lindberg has kept you away from the politics of the company and family because he
doesn’t want you to be embroiled in it.

“Over the last two years, he has sent you to manage the businesses overseas and even opened the
doors to F Nation’s market for you. Even if the project at H City’s South Sea fails, the Gymnasium Project
at F Nation can still continue smoothly.



“If you and Sir Louis get married, that would be for the best. You will have a home, and he will not have
to worry anymore. However, if you’re unwilling to do so, he will still have a backup plan for you.

“He is cold and heartless to everyone else other than you, whom he treats as his own sister. Therefore,
please don’t disappoint him…”

Charlotte was overwhelmed with emotions when she heard those words. She had always assumed
Danrique to be cold and unpredictable. All she felt for him was fear and respect, and never the familial
feelings siblings were supposed to have.

But now, she knew that Danrique had done a lot for her without her knowledge.

“There’s one more thing you need to know,” Sean reminded. “Mr. Lindberg hates Zachary to the core.
The next time he sees him, he might even kill him. Therefore, it’s best that you don’t allow him to show
up in Erihal. Or else, the consequences will be dire.”

“I understand. Thank you for the advice.” Charlotte was grateful. “With regards to Danrique’s problems…”

“If he doesn’t want to involve you, you had better stay out of it.” Sean was firm. “Anyway, it’s not like you
can do anything about it. So, you’re better off minding your own matters.”

“All right.” Charlotte nodded helplessly before leaving.

“Ms. Lindberg,” Sean called out to her sternly.

“Hmm?” Stopping in her tracks, she turned around.

“Do you know that the day Isabella brought Mr. Lindberg back to the Lindberg residence, it was snowing
heavily too? Just like how you brought Robbie back here…”
