Chapter 1521 Tie Him Up
âThat's right. We will play along and turn the table on them.â Twirling the phone in her hand,
Charlotte smiled wryly. âI never knew that I am capable of plotting and scheming. It seems that
when in desperation, people can be forced to step up to the plate.â
âAs of now, the future of both the Lindberg and Nacht families are in your hands,â Lupine lamented.
"Although Mr. Lindberg is protecting you from behind the scenes, he is still restrained by the fact
that he can't show himself. The situation at the Nacht family is even worse, whereby they are entirely
relying on you to lead them. You have to stay strong.â
âI wonder where he has gone to.â When the thought of Zachary flashed across her mind, Charlotte
became dejected. âSomehow, I can feel that he isn't dead.â
âMr. Nacht will be fine. I'm sure he'll return after a while,â Lupine consoled softly.
âNo, wait...â Charlotte had a sudden epiphany. âSince the impostor appeared at the crucial moment
to take Zachary's place, they must have planned it long ago. In that case, they might have been
involved in the fire and possibly know where Zachary is.â
âYou're right.â It dawned on Lupine. âIf that's the case, should we capture the impostor and question
him about Mr. Nacht's whereabouts?"
âI'm afraid it's not going to be that easy.â Knitting her eyebrows, Charlotte reminded herself. âWe
have to stay calm and take one step at a time.â
âHowever, considering Mr. Nacht's health, I'm worried that we are running out of time,â Lupine said
with concern. âWe'd better do it as soon as possible.â
"Yes, I know that.â Although Charlotte was overwhelmed with anxiety, she clenched her fists and
repeatedly reminded herself. âNo matter what, I canât act hastily. Calm down and think...â
On the way home, she felt as if she was being tormented. Her fears further intensified when she
realized Zachary's disappearance had something to do with Jesse and the impostor.
At that moment, she was extremely concerned about Zacharyâs safety. Still, she knew she had to
bide her time and not act rashly.
After all, her enemies were hidden in the shadows. In the event of a mistake, she would lose Zachary
forever.
The atmosphere at home was imbued with tension, and everyone's face seemed strained.
It was not until Charlotte alighted from the car did the atmosphere lighten slightly. At the sight of
her, Hanna hurried forward and said, âMrs. Nacht, you're finally back.â
"Did something happen?â Charlotte could sense that something was amiss.
âMr. Nacht threw a tantrum and smashed a lot of things. He even hurt someone,â Hanna reported
anxiously. âOnly when Bruce returned did he stop. But he has locked himself up in his room and
refuses to see anyone.â
âWho did he hurt? Is it serious?â Charlotte asked with a frown.
âIt was one of the maids. She has a cut on the forehead and lost quite a lot of blood. Dr. Langhan
has treated her wound, so it isn't much of an issue. Still, everyone is terrified.â
Hanna softly explained, âMrs. Nacht, you should go in and calm him down. Perhaps, he is thrown
into a foul mood due to how excruciatingly painful the treatment is.â
âNo matter how painful it is, it isnât right for him to hurt anyone.â Charlotte knitted her brows tightly.
âWhen he went through the same treatment previously, he didn't behave this way at all.â
"Butâ"
âMs. Lindberg.â At that moment, Bruce came down from upstairs. âI'm glad you've returned. Mr.
Nacht's temper is still flaring, so you should check on him now.â
Charlotte was infuriated when she saw the wound on his head. âDid he hit you?â
âThat's not important.â Bruce lowered his head. âHis emotions are unstable now, and he refuses to
listen to me no matter how hard I tried to persuade him. I'm afraid only you can handle him.â
"Everyone, listen to me,â Charlotte ordered. âIf he lays a finger on any of you, restrain him and tie
him up. Do not tolerate this bad habit of his.â
Everyone was stunned by her instructions and exchanged glances. Yet, no one dared to say a word.
âMs. Lindberg, we can't do that.â Bruce hastened to stop her. âMr. Nacht is the head of the
household, which gives him the right to lay a finger on us. We can't disrespect him!"
