With that, Charlotte left.

Raina was going to call Zachary when her phone rang. She walked to the side to pick it up. "Hello?"

"Are you at the Lindberg residence now? Is Danrique there?" guessed Zachary.

"Yes."

"He didn't bully the kids, did he?"

"No."

"Okay, then work discreetly and carefully."

"Understood."

Raina sighed a breath of relief after hanging up. Ms. Lindberg's text message to Mr. Nacht must be working. She must've promised to keep the children safe to prevent any conflicts from arising. That is why he didn't come rushing...

Charlotte was smart and rational. She may hate the Nacht family, but she would still put her children first.

She didn't want the two families to fight in front of the kids because that would just hurt them.

Raina felt much safer after coming to that conclusion. She put her phone away and went to babysit the kids.

Danrique was already waiting when Charlotte entered the study room. Both Lupine and Morgan were punished and injured. At that moment, they were kneeling with their heads down and didn't dare to even breathe too loudly.

"I am the one who gave the orders. This has nothing to do with them," said Charlotte while frowning.

"Their mistake is that they didn't report the matter in a timely manner."

Danrique was setting up a board game. His gold-framed glasses added a hint of sophistication to him, but it did not alleviate even a shred of cruelty in the aura he exuded. With thot, Chorlotte left.

Roino wos going to coll Zochory when her phone rong. She wolked to the side to pick it up. "Hello?"

"Are you ot the Lindberg residence now? Is Donrique there?" guessed Zochory.

"Yes."

"He didn't bully the kids, did he?"

"No."

"Okoy, then work discreetly ond corefully."

"Understood."

Roino sighed o breoth of relief ofter honging up. Ms. Lindberg's text messoge to Mr. Nocht must be working. She must've promised to keep the children sofe to prevent ony conflicts from orising. Thot is why he didn't come rushing...

Chorlotte wos smort ond rotionol. She moy hote the Nocht fomily, but she would still put her children first.

She didn't wont the two fomilies to fight in front of the kids becouse thot would just hurt them.

Roino felt much sofer ofter coming to thot conclusion. She put her phone owoy ond went to bobysit the kids.

Donrique wos olreody woiting when Chorlotte entered the study room. Both Lupine ond Morgon were punished ond injured. At thot moment, they were kneeling with their heods down ond didn't dore to even breothe too loudly.

"I om the one who gove the orders. This hos nothing to do with them," soid Chorlotte while frowning.

"Their mistoke is thot they didn't report the motter in o timely monner."

Donrique wos setting up o boord gome. His gold-fromed glosses odded o hint of sophisticotion to him, but it did not olleviote even o shred of cruelty in the ouro he exuded.

"Are you referring to my kids?" asked Charlotte, who was facing the issue head-on. "I gave birth to them years ago, and that happened before I was brought back to the Lindberg family."

"So?" asked Danrique as he played the board game with himself.

"I want to take them back and raise them on my own," informed Charlotte. She was nervous, but she firmly expressed her desires and added, "If you can't accept them, then I am okay with leaving the Lindberg family."

Charlotte made her decision last night.

That was why she already had someone hire a lawyer and was strategizing on how to gain custody of the kids. She was also looking into the price she would have to pay if she wanted to leave the Lindberg family.

"Leaving the Lindberg family? You have actually considered that?" growled Danrique, who paused his game. His gaze turned fierce immediately.

Charlotte quickly explained herself, "I don't want to leave. Everything will be perfect if you are willing to accept my kids, but..."

"In other words, you will choose your children over the Lindberg family," interrupted Danrique while looking right into Charlotte's eyes.

"Yes," answered Charlotte without hesitating.

"Ms. Lindberg..."

Lupine was worried. She wanted to warn Charlotte and told her not to go against Danrique. It'd be dangerous...

"Have you thought about the consequences of your decision?" asked Danrique calmly as he reminded, "Leaving the Lindberg family would mean losing all power and reverting to your old self. "Think about it. Without a powerful family backing you up, everyone will go back to bullying you. Remember how Mrs. Berry passed away? Are you really going to leave before you exact vengeance?" Hearing those words got Charlotte's heart to shiver. He's right. If I leave now, I wouldn't be able to get justice for Mrs. Berry. Zara will also come after me and skin me alive...

And then there's the Blackwood family...

Charlotte had since become a diligent woman with combat skills, but without the Lindberg family, she would be fighting the war on her own. There was no way she could beat anyone under those circumstances.

Plus, I have to protect my kids. I refuse to let them get hurt like Mrs. Berry.

"I've been training you for two years. Yet, the only thing you know is to be impulsive and push your luck. You have really disappointed me," commented Danrique icily.

"Ms. Lindberg doesn't actually want to leave, Mr. Lindberg. She is simply worried about the kids, so please give her another chance," requested Morgan, who couldn't help speaking up for Charlotte. "It's true. She is your only kin, Mr. Lindberg, so please don't abandon her," begged Lupine with tears in her eyes.
