Robbie was slightly startled by the snake Danrique had with him. Subconsciously, he ran over in Zachary’s direction.
Zachary was about to bring Robbie away with him, but Danrique yelled, “Hold it right there!”
Danrique’s men got themselves ready and pulled the trigger, aiming at the defenseless Zachary, who was there
without his subordinates since he was in a hurry.
In spite of being defenseless, Zachary wasn’t intimidated at all. Instead, he asked in return, “Why don’t you go
ahead and give it a try?”
“Are you trying to challenge me? Aren’t you aware it’s merely a piece of cake to take you out? In fact, once you’re
gone, I won’t have others coming after me!”
Charlotte started perspiring in fear as she knew Danrique might get someone to be his scapegoat after taking
Zachary out. That was precisely the reason she had been urging Zachary to leave the place.

one could stop Lindberg Corporation from asserting influences in the corporate world.
“You don’t think the Nacht family is an easy target, do you? Aren’t you aware H City is my domain? You have less
than fifty men with you! If I fail to make it out in ten minutes, my men will rush into the compound and wipe you
and your men out of existence! Shall we wait and see who’s the one triumphing at the end?”
Danrique asked with a vicious smirk, “Is that any of your business when you’re about to die? It’s such a shame no
one is around to keep your ninety-eight-year-old grandfather company by his death bed!”
Zachary returned the favor and remarked sarcastically, “Who are you to pick on me when your family was almost
wiped out over the night?”
Danrique’s wrath and intention to take out Zachary was written all over his deadpan face. He seemed to have
morphed into a merciless murderer within a few seconds.
Aware of the things awaiting Zachary, Charlotte pulled the trigger and aimed at the man she once held dear in
mind. “Zachary, you need to mind your words!”
“Mommy, no! Don’t kill Daddy!” Robbie got in front of his father and begged his mother with a pair of teary eyes.
“Robbie…” Charlotte couldn’t bear to show her son the inhumane side of hers.
“Uncle Dan, can you stop getting mad at Daddy?”
The little boy was aware Danrique was the one making the calls. He thought there must be some sort of
misunderstanding going on.
Therefore, he asserted in a serious tone, “I’m sure Daddy’s here merely because he’s worried about me! It was
never his intention to pick on you!”
Ironically, Danrique found Robbie resembling himself in the past. He was also an innocent little boy who had to
brace himself through the family feud.

have you barged in here out of the blue? Has something happened to Jamie and Ellie?”
“Ellie…” When he was about to share the details with the rest, he received a call. Without a second thought, he
picked it up when he found out it was a call from Bruce.
Bruce announced, “We can’t get our hands on anything from Seacrest Restaurant even after searching high and
low. We even tried our luck with the leftovers, but there’s nothing. On top of that, I have just gotten words; Ellie has
been poisoned by a type of venom unique to snakes.”
Zachary’s eyes narrowed to a slit when he heard Bruce. He turned around and glared at Danrique and the snake in
his hand.
“Mr. Nacht, have you reached the Lindberg residence? Is everything fine on your end? We’re currently on our way
there. Mr. Nacht…” Grasping his phone with all his might, Zachary paid no heed to Bruce’s questions anymore.
Zachary yelled, “Danrique! I thought you’d never take things out on minors, but I must’ve gotten my hopes high! I
can’t believe you have poisoned Ellie! She’s your niece!”
