Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 1534

The Young Man

“Of course.” Lupine bobbed her head. “I’ll report back to you when the results are in.”

“Mm. It’s late. You should go to bed,” Charlotte reminded her.

“What about you?” Lupine asked with concern. “It’s almost two in the morning. Aren’t you going to bed?
You need to go to the company early tomorrow morning.”

“I’ll just read a few more documents…”

Charlotte’s sentence was cut short when her phone began vibrating. She glanced at the screen and
shot a look at Lupine.

Lupine immediately shut the door to prevent someone from eavesdropping on the conversation.

After answering the call, Charlotte greeted, “Ms. Gold.”

“Ms. Lindberg, I hope I didn’t disturb you.” Nancy’s careful voice sounded over the line.

“No.” Charlotte hadn’t expected her call. “What is this about, Ms. Gold?”

“I have some questions,” Nancy stated hesitantly. “I don’t know if I should pose them to you.”

“Go ahead,” Charlotte answered.

“I—” Nancy was about to speak when the line got cut off.

“Hello? Hello!” Charlotte said, but the call was hung up. Frowning, she wondered if she should call
Nancy back but thought the better of it.

If something happened to Nancy, I might make things worse by calling her back.



“Why did the call end?”

Lupine was waiting to hear what it was, but before they could start talking, the call was ended.

“Perhaps something cropped up.” Charlotte narrowed her eyes. “But Nancy must’ve called me because
she realized something was up. That’s a good thing.”

“What should we do next?” Lupine asked softly.

“What else?” came Charlotte’s calm reply. “The enemy is in hiding, and we’re in the open. We have no
choice but to wait until they take action and act accordingly!”

“All right…” Lupine was about to go on when her phone rang. She answered it hastily and demanded,
“Hello, Jade. What is it?”

“We confirmed it was the van of the restaurant that was transporting some fresh beef. The packaging
was torn, causing the blood to splatter on our car.”

“All right.” Lupine heaved a sigh of relief. “I’m glad it’s nothing. You guys should return and have a good
rest.”

“Okay, Lupine.”

After hanging up, Jade turned to the buyer. “You should drive safe instead of driving recklessly. The
winding road is narrow. It’s dangerous if we were to bump into each other.”

“Yes, we understand.” The restaurant manager nodded. He turned to the buyer and yelled, “Hear that,
young man?”

“You should drive carefully, not me.” The short-haired buyer was wearing a black mask and black cap.
His voice was dripping with disdain as he said, “Are you in a hurry to seek death? Why did you drive so



fast on a winding road?”

“Hey!” Jade flushed red in anger. She nearly gave him a slap, but Emma stopped her and frowned at
the buyer. “Don’t be rude.”

“That’s right!” Afraid of offending Jade, the manager slapped the shorty’s head. “Just be careful! Don’t
talk back to them…”

Before he could finish, the young man pinned him onto the chopping block. The huge and sharp
cleaver was right next to his neck.

The manager’s eyes widened in fear.

“I’m a part-time employee, not your servant,” the young man said, glaring at him. “Don’t order me
around!”

The manager’s jaw hung wide as he trembled profusely without saying a word.

Both Jade and Emma were stunned by the sudden turn of events. They finally snapped to their senses
after a moment and stepped forward to stop him. “Hey, you…”

Before they could take action, the man pushed the manager away and used the cleaver to pick his
nails. “You can leave now. Remember to drive carefully!”
