Chapter 1636 It Is Settled
âExactly,â Chris added. âDon't fall into her trap, everyone. She is holding a grudge against me for
kicking her out of the company. After all, her children arenât mine. And now, she has even caused
my subordinates to turn on me so that she can seize the Nacht familyâs assets.â
âChris, you really are a shameless b*stard!â Lupine couldn't help but curse.
âShut up!â Chris snapped back arrogantly.
"Since everyone finds the agreement suspicious, let's just get it verified.â Charlotte was already
prepared. âIf you don't trust Raina, we'll get doctors from Serene Hospital to conduct the
verification.â
âThe staff at Serene Hospital are, obviously, in your pocket too,â Chris countered at once. âAfter all,
Spencer is now on your side after being bought by you.â
"Shut up.â Jesse glared at him.
He really is an idiot. How can he doubt Spencer at a time like this?
Given that more than half of the board members were groomed by Spencer, they naturally trusted
him unconditionally.
Unaware of that fact, Chris was puzzled as to what he did wrong.
âThe agreement is genuine.â Holding the document up, Rodney showed it to everyone. âThis debt
repayment agreement was written two years ago by Mr. Nacht for Ms. Lindberg. As for the
supplementary agreement, Mr. Nacht himself handed it to me before his accident.â
He continued, âAt that point in time, the eight lawyers from Divine Corporation and I were present.
All of us watched Mr. Nacht draft the supplementary agreement in person. In fact, he even engaged
a public notary to bear witness to it. Consequently, the authenticity of the agreement has been put
beyond doubt.â
Finally, Rodney added, âThe four public notaries present that day are right outside. If you need
further evidence, we can get them to come in here.â
Chris was shocked by the revelation. Even though he wasn't familiar with commercial hostilities, he
was cognizant that eight lawyers and four public notaries were more than enough to attest to the
authenticity of the agreements.
Suddenly, Jesse's expression drastically changed. After glaring at Charlotte with murderous intent,
he turned and left.
âMr. Gold? Mr. Gold...â Panicking, Chris ran after him and asked softly, âYou're leaving? What am I
going to do?â
"Zachary sure is a shrewd man indeed,â Jesse murmured under his breath with gritted teeth. âI didn't
expect him to leave a trump card behind in his absence!â
âDoes this mean there's nothing we can do to change it?â Chris grew anxious. âIn that case, Iâ"
âThe boat has sailed,â Jesse seethed through his teeth. âNow, you should just shut up!â
âIn that caseâ" Just before Chris could say anything, Jesse had left in a huff.
Furrowing his brows, Chris didn't know what to do. After pondering Jesse's intentions, he figured
that the law was on Charlotte's side. Hence, he had no choice but to allow Charlotte her stated
share of Zachary's assets.
Nevertheless, considering that Nacht Group had been established for more than a century, he
figured that it would not be a big deal to give her just two and a half yearsâ worth of profits
Feeling a sense of relief, he returned to the conference room and held his forehead with his hand.
With a grimacing expression, he lamented, âWell, after that terrible bout of sickness, I can barely
remember anything anymore.â
Now that the agreement had been proven to be genuine, he had no choice but to blame it on his
poor memory.
âPerhaps, I was blinded back then to have made such a stupid decision,â Chris fumed.
âDo you mean that you're no longer doubting the authenticity of the agreement?â Rodney probed.
âTo be safe, let's get the public notaries to come in here and verify it,â Spencer suggested. âGiven
the gravity of the situation, I wish for everyone's patience as we clear the accounts.â
