Lupine and Morgan blushed as their charade fell apart while Marino gave an uncomfortable grin.
Ben was the most outspoken. “Yes, there was that idea. I must thank you and Mr. Nacht for the help you gave me.”
“Don’t worry, I will make sure Danrique is aware of this.”
Everything is coming together at last! I’m so happy for my girls.
As Charlotte boarded the private jet headed for Erihal, Zachary busied himself with the wedding preparations.
This time, to avoid unsolicited attention, he did not make the announcement. All he wanted was to get married in
peace.
News of Spencer’s death arrived from the hospital just as Charlotte boarded.
Zachary made frequent visits throughout the butler’s stay in the hospital. He had even brought the children along
during the most recent visit which was on the night before.
Spencer had smiled in contentment at the sight of the children, aware that it might be his last.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZachary was devastated. He had hoped that Spencer would have been able to hold on at least until his wedding.
After notifying Charlotte of the news, he made arrangements for a quiet funeral.
Aside from members of the Nacht family, only the inner circle of Nacht Group executives was present.
Johann lamented Spencer’s untimely death during the service, feeling particularly morose as they were of a similar
age with him being in his twilight years as well. The numerous upheavals within the company had severely
weakened him. Under Zachary’s strict orders, he had been forced to take a step back from company affairs to
recuperate.
Johann had expressed a wish to spend his last years with his daughter’s family after attending Zachary’s wedding, a
decision that had earned the respect and blessing of the groom.
During the period of his recuperation, Johann managed to regain his strength from his mandatory vacation. He had
even developed the habit of seeing Robbie at least once a day to engage in conversations regarding technological
research and passed on everything he knew to the child.
Zachary was deeply appreciative to Johann for that.
Robbie was a fast learner. Despite being only seven years of age, he kept up with the company’s progress easily.
Harder problems were generally referred to him by employees who were unable to solve them on their own.
With everything progressing according to plan, it did not look as if anything could go wrong.
That morning, Lucy came over with a report as soon as Zachary arrived at his office. “Mr. Nacht, the cops have
some news.”
Zachary took a closer look at the contents of the file to discover that Jesse had been formally charged. His
involvement in a large number of criminal activities including the kidnapping of Ellie by Sharon to T Nation had been
proven.
Zachary had been under the impression that Chris was Sharon’s secret benefactor. He did not expect it to be Jesse
and was shocked to learn how early the plot had been put in motion.
After a thorough investigation by the cops, other crimes committed by Jesse were beginning to come to light. As of
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat morning, the list of his crimes with solid evidence had filled an entire page with more under investigation.
With sufficient proof to detain him, he had been handed over to the court to await trial.
Nancy too had been charged with a multitude of crimes. Due to the high possibility of her contracting AIDS, she was
subjected to medical treatment. Her trial had been postponed by three months until she recovered.
Zachary’s brows creased with worry after scanning through the documents. “Send a softcopy of everything to Mrs.
Nacht,” he instructed Lucy.
“Already did, Mr. Nacht,” replied Lucy briskly before handing him another folder. “This contains the information
regarding all of Gold Group’s partners.”
“There’s no need to look at those.” Zachary did not even glance up.
“There is a page that might be of interest to you,” Lucy prompted gently. “It pertains to the Brown family.”
Zachary started in surprise before examining the folder more closely. Indeed, Michael did work together with the
Golds once. Because of Gold Group’s bankruptcy, the Brown family suffered great losses as well.
Zachary read the document intently and discovered that the Browns and Golds had a legitimate partnership. It
appeared that their project had been picking up steam, scheduled to begin two months ago.
Michael does have connections to the Gold family! He must have been working with them as early as my first
encounter with Nancy at South Sea Hotel where I was attacked.q
