Chapter 105
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âIâm glad to accept Mr. Nachtâs kind act.â
Mr. Sterk took the cup of coffee smilingly and gulped it down.
Charlotte was gob smacked. She actually wanted to tell the elder that he couldnât drink it because there was a chip in the coffee.
Nonetheless, as the words stuck in her throat, she didnât even utter a word.
After Mr. Sterk gulped down the cup of coffee, he suddenly felt that something was stuck in his throat. He couldnât help but let out a retch. The next moment, he immediately covered his mouth to prevent himself from puking.
He had to hold his vomit in because Zachary gifted the cup of coffee to him.
Zachary leaned back on the presidentâs leather chair in an arrogant posture and looked at him amusedly.
It was as if he was ready to watch a good show!
The other shareholders wished to help him because he didnât look well. However, none of them dared to speak before Zachary said anything.
âYou⦠You donât have to hold your vomit inâ¦â On the other hand, only Charlotte dared to say it out and grabbed a rubbish bin nervously. âJust vomit hereâ¦â
At this time, everyone inside the room was flabbergasted.
Who recruited this slow and blunt secretary?
How can someone as stupid as her work in level 68?
Zacharyâs eyes squinted and rage pulsed through his veins.
Was I out of my mind when I decided to promote her? Why did I bring the stupid wench to level 68 to irritate myself?
âBleurghâ¦â
Mr. Sterk vomited non-stop to spit out all the coffee he had just gulped down.
At this moment, Zacharyâs face turned a lot grimmer, as if dark clouds were looming over before the storm.
Meanwhile, everyone sweated in fear, while some of them even began to wipe away their sweat with their handkerchiefs. They glanced at Zachary for a while and shifted their gaze toward the pitiful Mr.
Sterk.
âThatâs right. Just puke it all up.â
Charlotte held the rubbish bin in one hand and patted his back in the other, hoping that he could puke the chip out.
However, after quite some time, Mr. Sterk only puked the coffee up but not the chip.
âCharlotte, what are you doing?â At this moment, Melody happened to enter the meeting room and witnessed it. She yelled at her in a low voice, âGet out of here now!â
âIâ¦â
âGet out.â
Charlotte initially wanted to say something, yet she had no choice but to leave after Lucy shot her a look.
After only a few steps, she suddenly heard a bang behind her. The next moment, many of them screamed, âMy God, Mr. Sterkâ¦â
She turned around and saw that Mr. Sterk had fallen to the ground, squeezing his neck with both of his hands. His face turned purple, eyes widened, and tongue stuck outâ¦
He looked exactly like Fifi when it swallowed the chip!
My goodness, the chip must be stuck in his throat nowâ¦
She instantly regretted her decision and couldnât forgive herself if something terrible happened to him.
âCall an ambulance. Call an ambulance now!â
The meeting room became a mess in no time at all.
Although Zachary was a little worried, he still said composedly, âAsk Raina to come here!â
âYes sir!â
âHow could it be?â The board members were frightened.
âMr. Nacht, as stubborn as Mr. Sterk might be, you canât do this to him.â An elder board member said in a trembling voice, âWeâre all elders who fought alongside your grandpa for decades and helped the Nacht family prosper throughout our lives. How can you poison him merely because he is in disagreement with you?â
âIndeed, Mr. Nacht. You canât treat Mr. Sterk like this. This is too muchâ¦â Another two elder board members shot him an accusatory glance with tears. âWe know that youâre ruthless in doing everything, but how can you do this to people in your own company?â
âI have to call old Mr. Nachtâ¦â An elder board member was emotional and wanted to make a phone call.
Meanwhile, Zachary felt increasingly furious. What on earth is on their mind? I merely gifted a cup of coffee to Mr. Sterk, yet they suspect me of poisoning him?
âWho made the coffee?â Zachary bellowed.
âIt was her. She made the coffee.â Melody immediately pointed at Charlotte.
