Chapter 1302
“Are you okay, Mr. Nacht?”
Nancy shot a concerned look at Zachary. A smart woman like her immediately read his mind. No wonder he
brought me to Sultry Night. Turns out that he only wanted to provoke Charlotte.
“Of course I'm okay!” Zachary feigned indifference. “Let's go. I'll treat you to a drink.”
When he strode into his private room and saw the familiar surroundings, he could not help but think about Charlotte
and their past events...
Memories surged through his mind while a turmoil of emotions ravaged him.
“I think that you need to be alone tonight,” said Nancy considerately. “Why don't I leave first?”
“Send Ms. Gold back,” ordered Zachary solemnly.
“Understood.” Ben arranged for two of his subordinates to send Nancy home.

“Don't worry, I will.” He nodded with a smile.
Nancy left with the subordinate. When she walked out, she kept turning around to look at Zachary. It was only after
the subordinate closed the door that she averted her gaze.
Ben heaved a sigh. Ms. Gold isn't that simple.
Sitting on the sofa, Zachary cast his gaze downward and fidgeted with the lighter on the table. He kept flicking the
switch, causing the flame to flicker. The flame, which was dancing in the darkness, seemed to represent his
complicated emotions...
Ben dismissed the manager and opened a bottle of wine.
“Did her personality change after she changed her surname to Lindberg?” Zachary suddenly asked. “Is it possible
that the current Charlotte is different from the previous Charlotte? Perhaps, they just look really similar...”
Ben felt upset when he heard that. Naturally, he understood how Zachary felt. It was true that Charlotte's current
personality was completely different from her past self.
Back then, although Charlotte had her weird tendencies and had given in before, she still loved Zachary deeply.
For Zachary's sake, she resisted the family's pressure and mustered up the courage to lead a new lifestyle. For him,
she married into the Nacht family...
When they were in love, they were inseparable. It was as if they only cared about each other and no one else in the
world mattered.
Yet, nothing that Zachary did now could affect her.
She was always so cold and distant. Even though they were just right in front of each other, it felt like their souls
were miles apart.
He had exhausted all sorts of methods to become closer with her, but everything ended in failure.
“Perhaps, she has never loved me...” Zachary's voice was filled with disappointment. “Otherwise, how could she
change so drastically?”

harmed her too much. She even lost Mrs. Berry because of it.”
“It's true that the Nacht family has let her down, but I've tried my best to make it up to her.” Zachary felt extremely
helpless when Ben mentioned it. “Furthermore, I've never cheated on her. For the entire of my life, she's the only
woman I loved. Yet, she...”
Zachary's heart ached terribly when he mentioned that.
“About that, I have always believed that Ms. Lindberg had been tricked by the Laurent family. She didn't do it
willingly,” said Ben carefully.
“I've given her a chance before. When I asked her if she was forced to do this, she didn't answer me.” Resentment
surged through Zachary when he remembered that incident. “I've already let the bygones be bygones. I've even
stopped investigating it, yet she's still pushing me away...”
“Take it slow. Give her some time...” advised Ben.
“I'm already running out of time!” Zachary's voice suddenly became solemn. “How long more do I have to live? I
just want my family to be reunited... before I die!”
