Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1314
âI'm here to discuss the Gymnasium Project, Zachary,â Robert finally revealed why he was here. âI
believe you've read the relevant documents. As the other shareholders are fine with it, we just need
your signature.â
âThe other shareholders are fine with it?â Zachary arched an eyebrow. âAre they waiting for my
decision?â
He knew the shareholders wouldn't dare to say a word before he did.
âHa! Of course,â Robert replied with an awkward grin. âYou need to approve it."
âMm, I'm going to be the bad guy.â Zachary sipped on his coffee.
"Er..." Robert had no idea Zachary was going to be this difficult. Though he was upset, he had to
tamp down his irritation to persuade Zachary.
âYou're the most influential person in the corporate world. No one will dare to question your
decision, but that doesn't mean you're a bad guy.â
"Why not? Signing the document means offending my childrenâs mommy.â Zachary didn't bother
mincing his words. âIf it was someone else, never mind. She's the only person I dare not provoke!â
Silence surrounded them as Robert's brows snapped together. âDidn't you break up with her a while
ago?" he asked, confused. âShe did that to you, didn't she? Why are you still..."
He paused, changing his words so he wouldn't sound so harsh. âThe Nacht family and Lindberg
family are at odds, and you aren't related to her anymore. Why are you so afraid of her? I don't get
it.â
He ended with a careful question.
âI can't help it.â Zachary shrugged helplessly. âShe's the mother of my children, and they listen to
her. If she's upset and complains to them, I'll have to suffer.â
Robert was speechless. It was clearly an excuse, but he couldn't find a plausible reason to retort that
excuse of Zachary.
âYou shouldnt be asking for my signature.â Zachary pushed the jewelry boxes back to him. âInstead,
go to the person involved. If you don't want her to get involved in the project, go to her personally,â
he declared with a smile.
âBut Iâ"
"Oh, I just remembered I have an appointment.â Zachary seemed torn. âWhy don't you join me?â
âNo need,â Robert responded stiffly. He stood up and made to leave.
"Hey, Sir Robert!â Zachary called, pointing at the silver boxes. âTake these with you. Perhaps you
might need it when your son gets you a daughter-in-law.â
His words sent a course of annoyance throughout Robert's being.
Robert was wordless with rage as he spun on his heels and marched away.
His subordinates glanced at the boxes, wondering if they should take the boxes with them.
Ben shut the box and handed it to them. âTake it. They are worth millions.â
The men grabbed both boxes before dashing away to catch up to Robert.
âShould I send him off?" Ben asked.
âTell him I can compensate him for the cars I destroyed back in Pillere,â Zachary uttered, swirling the
glass in his hand slowly.
Ben let out a snort and nodded. "Got it."
He then ran out after their visitors.
Lucy came in to clear up the mess. She offered carefully, âMr. Nacht, I heard that Sir Louis is in H
City."
Zachary was sipping on his wine when he heard what she had to say. He froze and furrowed his
brows immediately.
Is Louis here for Charlotte? How could I have missed that? That sly fox must be going all out to get
what he wants. He can't do it himself, so he asked for Louis" help to get Charlotte to quit herself?
