Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby novel Chapter 1393

Louis, unfortunately, was adamant. “I don't see anything wrong with this. If it weren't for Zachary, we'd be happy together.”

Charlotte was both speechless and exasperated. She knew that no matter what she said, Louis would never listen.

She had spent three days running herself ragged, trying to talk some sense into Louis but to no avail. He was just way too stubborn.

“Charlotte, you have to believe me. I'm the only one whose feelings for you will never change.”

“Charade? This is the furthest thing from a charade! Everything that I've done and said, I meant them from the bottom of my heart.”

Charlotte sighed in resignation. “Okay, that's enough. Louis, are you going to let them go or not?”

“I can let them go, but not you,” Louis said as he gripped Charlotte's shoulders. “Please, Charlotte, give me one more chance. I promise to love you and only you. You have to trust me—”
