Chapter 1556 Signing
Those words managed to extinguish Charlotte's anger almost completely.
After all, her kids were her soft spot; her Achillesâ heel. No matter what happened to her or everyone
else, she couldn't let her kids get involved.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door loudly.
Rodney and his team entered promptly.
They clearly already knew what they were there for and placed the document on the table
wordlessly before standing aside.
They were on Charlotte's side, but the DNA results were hard facts that no one could deny. At this
point, they had to do their jobs.
Almost everyone in the house was now on Chrisâ side, apart from Morgan and the two female
bodyguards from the Lindberg family who were on Charlotte's side. Despite that, they seemed
especially helpless.
After all, the Nacht family had the upper hand now.
âCharlotte, you better sign it right now. If you do, we can guarantee your safe departure from here.
If not, we'll be forced toâ"
âIf you don't stop barking, I'm going to kick you out,â Spencer finally cracked and cut Kallum off.
"Spencer, why are you still on her side even now?â Kallum said, annoyed.
âLeave,â Spencer said simply, slamming his cane against the floor.
Some bodyguards rushed over to escort Kallum out of the room.
"Okay, okay! I'll keep my mouth shut. I won't say anything else. I'll just watch, okay?â Kallum
panicked and quickly made a gesture as if he was zipping up his mouth.
Chris glanced at the guards, who promptly stepped aside.
âI suggest you just sign the document,â Spencer advised and pointed at the document. âOnce you
do that, everything will come to an end. We won't take any legal action, and we'll keep this matter
from the public. However, we will be looking into the fire at the Nacht Residence as well as
Zachary's disappearance. We'll inform the police of everything you did as well.â
âIs this even a fair deal?â Charlotte scoffed. âThese stocks and assets are incredibly valuable. Why
should I let go of them for my so-called âreputationâ?â
âYou may not care about your reputation, but what about your kids?" Spencer asked. âDonât you
care about them and their future? If news of this got out, how are they going to show their face in
public? There will be eyes following them everywhere they go.â
âExactly!â Kallum butted in.
âThey may not be mine, but after calling me Daddy for so many years, I wouldn't want that to
happen to them,â Chris said. âI don't care about what happened in the past anymore. Now, all I want
is for you to return all of your assets. That's already kind enough, isn't it? What are you worrying
about?â
âYes, how kind of you,â Charlotte said, glaring at him coldly. âI hope you know that when I expose
you for who you truly are, I won't be this forgiving.â
âYou're insane,â Chris replied, avoiding her stare in guilt.
"Spencer, you remember what Zachary told you before he disappeared, right?â Charlotte was still
trying her best to convince Spencer, âPlease believe me. He's Chris, not Zachary. He got plastic
surgery to look like Zachary, and he came back for revenge-"
âShut up!â
In his urgency, Chris slapped Charlotte across the face.
The slap was so loud that it rendered the room silent for a few seconds.
Even Chris himself was taken aback, and he stared at his hand in shock. His gaze momentarily
softened in guilt, but he soon regained composure.
"How dare you!â
Morgan rushed over and berated Chris, but she got held back by the bodyguards.
Charlotte's face was still stuck looking to the side from Chrisâ slap. Despite the fiery pain on her
cheek, she was calmer than ever, except for her tightly clenched fists.
Spencer frowned and looked at Charlotte with conflicting emotions.
âCharlotte, I didn't want to pursue the matter of you lying to me after all the years that we've been
together, but I now see that I've been a fool trying to be nice to you. How could you make up such
lies?â
Chris continued to yell at Charlotte, âSign and leave! If not, I'll spread all of your disgusting actions
to the public.â
