Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 1254

“I used to think that we can be really good friends, so living together would be a relaxing and fun
experience. However, I now realize this isn’t the case. Being friends and being a married couple are two
vastly different matters. The moment we change roles, all sorts of problems would start popping up-”

“Stop! I don’t want to hear them,” Louis interrupted with a roar. “You’re breaking up with me because of
Zachary, aren’t you? It’s because you still love him, that’s why you want to go back to his side. That’s
why you want to break up with me. Am I wrong?”

“I’m not getting back together with him,” Charlotte started, her brows knitted. “I’m breaking up with you
because I’ve simply realized that the two of us aren’t suitable for married life. Being together will only
make us both unhappy. This has nothing to do with anyone else.”

“Then why did you and him… Why did you…”

Louis was distraught. He could not even finish his sentence. Every time he thought about what he saw
back at the hotel room, rage would try to consume him.

“Actually…”



Charlotte thought of telling him the truth. However, she realized that he might not agree to break off the
engagement if he were to find out that nothing had happened between her and Zachary.

With that thought in mind, Charlotte said, “Since that’s something that bugs you a lot, let’s break off the
engagement and be friends again.”



“No,” Louis growled out stubbornly. “I won’t agree to break off the engagement.”



“Louis…”

“Promise me. Promise me that you won’t meet him ever again.” Louis leaped up from his bed and
grabbed Charlotte’s hands. “As long as you promise me that, I won’t hold you accountable anymore.”

“Louis, don’t you know that you’re just lying to yourself like this?” Charlotte was at a loss for words. “You
know that we’re not compatible with each other, so why are you insisting on us to stay together?”

“We’re not compatible with each other? How can you say that?” Louis hissed out. “Aren’t we happy
together? I doted on you, and I did everything you want me to. Which part have I not done right by you?
Tell me, and I’ll change it.”

Charlotte was truly speechless at his stubbornness. The issue with them did not lie in how well he had
treated her, but that love could not be forced. No happiness would stem from forcing a relationship when
she did not love him.

Nevertheless, Louis clearly did not realize that. More accurately, he did not want to confront that truth.

“Charlotte, don’t leave me,” Louis cried out by her ears as he hugged her.

“I really, really love you. Even if you made a mistake, or even if you were forced, I don’t mind. Let the
past stay in the past. I won’t hold you accountable for it. As long as you promise not to see him again, I’ll
still be as nice to you as ever.”

“Louis…” There were more things Charlotte wanted to say to him, but she did not know where to start.

“Charlotte, please, don’t leave me.”

Louis tightened his grip around her like an insecure child. He was afraid that once he let her go, she
would disappear in the next blink of his eyes.



“Louis, you’re hurt. You should be resting.” Charlotte gently pushed him away, only to realize that he was
burning up. She quickly helped him lie down on the bed as she muttered, “Louis, stay down. I’ll get the
doctor for you now.”

“No! Don’t go.” Louis wrapped his hand around her wrist in a tight grip. “Don’t leave me.”

A pang of pain struck Charlotte’s heart to see him in that state, so she grabbed his hand and whispered,
“All right, Louis. I’ll stay here and keep you company. I won’t go. Rest now.”

With Charlotte’s hands firmly in his, Louis slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep.

He was born with a golden spoon, and that meant that there were few rough patches in his life. After the
beating, both his body and his mind had turned fragile.

Charlotte sat by his side, quietly watching him as various emotions swirled in her heart. She regretted
her decision. Why did I agree to marry Louis because of some external factors back then?

Now, the three of us are in pain.
