Chapter 1354
“I understand now.” Lupine had a sudden revelation. “If Mr. Nacht has a terminal disease, he must have looked for
Dr. Felch before. In that case, Hayley and Sam would definitely know about it.”
“Yeah.” Charlotte had mixed feelings. “No wonder he kept looking for Dr. Felch while avoiding me. Furthermore, it
seemed like Dr. Felch had an unfulfilled wish before taking his last breath, judging by how he kept grabbing
Zachary's hand.”
“Since we haven't verified this, don't worry yet, Ms. Lindberg. We might be overthinking things,” consoled Lupine.
“Mr. Nacht has such a strong physique. He doesn't look sick.”
“Let's go to Phoenix City tomorrow first.” Charlotte changed the topic. “Arrange the private jet while I call Hayley.”
“Okay.” Lupine nodded and asked, “Are we bringing the kids along?”
“It's a long journey, so let's not bring them along. You can just follow me there.”

Lupine immediately left to make the arrangements.
At that moment, Morgan stalked in furiously. “I'm so upset!” she grumbled.
“What happened?” Charlotte frowned as she looked at her.
“I thought that Mr. Nacht is a loyal man, but I didn't realize that he's such a playboy!” exclaimed Morgan indignantly.
“He instructed Marino to pick Nancy up just now!”
“They might be discussing business matters.” Lupine glanced at her and chided, “Stop overreacting!”
“I'm not!” Still vexed, Morgan explained, “You only claim that I'm overreacting because you don't know what they've
done! They booked the entirety of Seacrest Restaurant and even sent people over to decorate it. Isn't that a date?”
Lupine quickly shot her a look, signaling for her to stop talking.
“Why does that matter?” Charlotte remained calm. “I had already broken up with Zachary a long time ago. Isn't it
normal for him to date someone else?”
“But—” Morgan was about to say something when Lupine pinched her. Only then did she return to her senses and
say, “Fine, I was just being nosy.”
“You're beyond nosy!” Lupine growled furiously. “If Mr. Nacht finds out that Marino revealed his tasks to you so
easily, Marion would be doomed.”
“Um...” Stunned, Morgan quickly explained, “He didn't tell me. I-I overheard it by chance. Ms. Lindberg, he didn't—”
“That's enough,” interrupted Charlotte. “The kids are going to wake up from their afternoon nap soon. They want to
eat at Fairytale Land with Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie. Go and prepare for it.”
“Okay.” Morgan left hurriedly. Before leaving, she even shot a pleading look at Lupine, asking the latter to explain
on her behalf.
Lupine waved her hands, urging her to leave quickly.
When the door closed, Lupine consoled Charlotte, “Ms. Lindberg, please don't be bothered by what Morgan had
said. I think Mr. Nacht is only meeting Nancy for the Gymnasium Project. It's definitely not a date! He even stood up
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfor you this morning.”
“Whatever,” said Charlotte flatly. “He can date whoever he likes, and it's none of my business. Furthermore, since
he can still date girls, it means that his illness isn't severe. I don't have to worry about Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie no
longer having a father.”
Feeling awkward, Lupine was at a loss for words.
“All right, you may leave. I'll call Hayley.”
“Okay.”
While Lupine left silently, Charlotte grabbed her phone. The look of indifference on her face was gradually replaced
with a solemn one.
She was both worried about Zachary's health and his date with Nancy.
If she had to make a choice, she would rather he remain healthy. As for their relationship, she had come to terms
with it.
Perhaps, this was their fate.
Letting out a sigh, Charlotte called Hayley.
Upon hearing that she was planning to visit tomorrow, the latter was delighted and told her to take her time since
the memorial service would be held at night.
