NovelEnglishMore importantly, without Zachary’s approval, she would never be an official partner in the project.
From Charlotte’s perspective, she felt that Zachary was raising such an unreasonable request at this
point to make her quit.
“Fine, I accept the condition.” Charlotte glared at him coldly. “I’ll be back in Erihal tomorrow to get it
done.”
“Good.” Zachary pursed his lips into a sly smile. “I hope to receive good news from you!”
With that, he got to his feet and began walking off, saying, “We shall sign the papers for our business
partnership once you get the authorization documents from the Ministry of Youth and Sports in Erihal.”
As Charlotte watched him leave the place, she could not help but clench her teeth in annoyance. The
cunning businessman she had just conversed with was nothing like the gentle, affectionate man from
the night before.
He can’t be the same person as Gigolo! That’s simply not possible!
“Charlotte, are you mad?” Louis carefully tried to pacify her. “I prepared a banquet tonight for Mr.
Lorenzo and Mr. Morgana. Will you join us?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Of course. I won’t get distressed just because of something this small.” Charlotte smirked.
“That’s good to hear. Alright, I’ll be going off to do some horse-riding with them now…” Louis heaved a
sigh of relief.
“Okay, I’ll be going to the South Sea. I’ll see you tonight.” Charlotte got up and strode off.
…
Meanwhile, in Zachary’s car, Ben asked, “Mr. Nacht, are you sending Ms. Lindberg away on purpose?”
After all the years he had spent working for Zachary, Ben knew his employer well enough to confidently
say that he always drew a line between work and personal affairs, and he would not sabotage
Charlotte with a request like that.
If he really felt that it was unfair for Charlotte to hold so many shares, he could have negotiated with her
to reduce the number of shares she held or even asked her to invest more money in the project.
His seemingly unreasonable request for Charlotte to get support from the Ministry of Youth and Sports
of Erihal was more likely a tactic to get her to leave H City for the short term.
“I guess you saw through my plans, huh?”
Zachary was reading some documents that Johann had sent him. It seemed like some issues had
arisen yet again regarding the launch of the latest products.
“There are thirteen more days till the opening day of the territorial waters of the South Sea. Mr. Nacht
probably won’t return to M Nation anytime soon. Are you sending Ms. Lindberg away for the time being
so that you can deal with Mr. Nacht first and prevent the two from meeting each other?” Ben asked.
“Yeah.” Zachary nodded. “In the past few days, there have been multiple instances where the two of
them almost met each other in person. If they do, all hell will break loose, and I’m not taking any
chances!”
“That’s true.” As Ben recalled those stressful times, he felt a chill run down his spine.
“When Charlotte goes to Erihal, I’ll take care of the matters regarding Henry and pay a visit to Phoenix
City.” Zachary had it all planned out. “I need you to check on what happened to Dr. Felch for me.”
“Understood.”
Two years ago, when Charlotte had gone missing, Hayley and Sam desperately wanted to bring Dr.
Felch back to Phoenix City despite the fact that he had not even woken up from his coma back then.
Zachary did not force them to stay and simply gave them some money before they left.
He knew that they had lost all their trust in him after Charlotte’s disappearance. Just like Olivia, the two
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmof them even began suspecting him for plotting the deaths of Charlotte and Mrs. Berry for the sake of
keeping her children.
As he had expected, when Hayley and Sam left H City, they immediately cut off all connections with the
Nacht family.
Olivia had also left with her mother and never returned.
When he saw for himself how horrendous Charlotte’s relapses were the night before, he was extremely
shocked. In his head, he swore to himself that he would not let her suffer any longer from her illness,
nor would he let her shun him for what he had done.
He needed to find Dr. Felch as soon as possible so that the poison lingering in her body could be
removed.
Hayley and Sam would never help him with that because of the huge misunderstanding between them
and the incidents in the past that had severely wounded Dr. Felch. As such, he decided that he had to
take care of the matter personally to ensure that everything would unfold as planned.
The only catch about it was that in his absence, Henry might encounter Charlotte. In order to prevent
that, he had to convince Charlotte to leave H City. At the same time, he needed to get Henry to return
to M Nation as quickly as possible.
That way, he would be able to focus on the urgent matters at hand.
