Chapter 1042

Gritting her teeth to restrain herself from groaning in pain, Charlotte sniggered. “Zachary Nacht, great one! See how hard-hearted all of you from the Nacht family are!”

“Charlotte…” Zachary was about to explain to her, yet she snatched his gun and pointed at Zara.

A panic-stricken Zara had the heart to pull Henry over as her shield.

Zachary’s heart skipped a beat, and he shoved Charlotte away hastily at the eleventh hour. Subsequently, Charlotte missed a shot. Furthermore, her arm was even scraped by the bullet from Zara’s gunshot.

“Zachary Nacht!” At the peak of fury, Charlotte pointed her gun at Zachary and fired a shot at him right away. As a result, his arm was shot.

The bodyguards of the Nacht family lifted their guns and aimed at Charlotte instinctively.

“All of you, back off!” Zachary bellowed at once.

All his bodyguards stepped backward and dared not move at all.

On the other hand, the female bodyguards of the Lindberg family lifted their guns and huddled over them.

When the situation descended into complete chaos, Zara was about to flee by holding Henry hostage. At that very moment, an ear-piercing shriek from the eagle sounded.

The next moment, Fifi the eagle darted toward Zara like an arrow released from the bow. A quick-witted Zara aimed her gun at it and fired.

One side of the eagle’s wings was shot, yet it continued to dart toward Zara and attack her. As a result, she dropped her gun when it flapped its wings and struck against her. Waving both her hands frantically, she tried to shoo the eagle away.

Meanwhile, Henry’s legs gave way when Zara let go of him and collapsed on the floor. Zachary dashed toward him hastily to help him up.

In the meantime, Charlotte dashed toward Zara and the eagle. She yelled out, “Fifi, move aside!”

In a split second, the eagle flapped its wings and flew away.

Bang! Bang! Charlotte aimed at Zara’s knees respectively and fired twice.

Zara fell on her knees in an instant. Nevertheless, she supported her body with her arms and shrieked with laughter.

“What are you laughing at?” Charlotte narrowed her eyes and asked coldly.

“Did you hear the siren?” Zara’s lips contorted into a creepy snicker. “There is an alarm system in my body. When I’m shot, it will automatically trigger the system and alert the police. Of course, I’m not willing to go to jail. Even so, I would rather be imprisoned instead of being shot dead by you. After all, getting a haven is the most important thing for me at the moment. As long as I can stay alive, I’m sure as hell that I will have the chance to escape!

Charlotte Lindberg, you will not be able to capture me!”

“I will finish you off now!” Charlotte pulled the trigger and was about to fire.

“Don’t fire!” Zachary stopped her. “Just hand her over to the police.”

“I will shoot you at once if you dare to stop me!” Charlotte glared at him with murderous intent in her eyes, and she was unmovable by his words.

“Charlotte Lindberg, do you think you are still in Erihal? You will be charged for murdering here.” Zara continued to provoke her, “If you kill me now, you will have to be prepared to rot in jail!”

“You deserve to repent your sins with your life! Go to h*ll!” Blinded by anger, Charlotte pulled her trigger impetuously.

“Wait a minute!” Henry yelled out abruptly.

“Grandpa…” Zachary called out anxiously.

“Can you let me have a few words with her? Please…” Henry pleaded with Charlotte.

“Just one minute!” Charlotte replied coldly without putting down her gun.

At the same time, all the bodyguards from the Lindberg family huddled over them and pointed their guns simultaneously at Zara.

It was a sure thing that Zara would meet her end at any moment.

“You kept on asking me why I tended to bias toward your brother, although you are more outstanding than him since young. Do you know why I would rather nurture him and refuse to let you manage Nacht Group?” On the brink of tears, Henry looked at Zara sorrowfully. ”I sense that you are overambitious and materialistic since young.

Apart from that, you have been eyeing the inheritance right of the Nacht family. Thus, I foresee that your senses will be easily prevailed by your greed for power and social status. That’s why I tended to stand in your way most of the time. It never crosses my mind that this will trigger your rebellious nature.”

Zara snapped at him impatiently, “Don’t waste time lamenting on this! If you still treat me as your daughter, get them to let go of me and send me away from H City!”

Henry uttered bitterly with a self-deprecating smile. “Since this is my sin, I should be the one to put it to an end.”
