Chapter 1298
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âWill you be sad if Mr. Nacht gets together with Ms. Gold? I think you shouldnât underestimate her.â
âI didnât. Sheâs much better than the Blackwoods. Besides, sheâs Zacharyâs type.â
âDoes this mean youâre worried? Robbie, Jamie, and Ellie will be getting a stepmom if theyâre together. Who knows if sheâll be another Cynthia? What if sheâs actually a wolf in sheepâs clothing? What if she hurt the children?â
âI donât think sheâs that kind of person,â Charlotte said confidently, âShe doesnât seem like it.â
âWell, none of us thought Cynthia would turn out to be so viciousâ¦â
âZachary should be able to tell what kind of a person she is after all heâs been through. He didnât like Cynthia actually, it was all his fatherâs idea. Heâs free to make his own choice now. Thereâs nothing I can do if he really likes Nancy.â
Lupine did not feel comfortable with the idea of Zachary getting together with Nancy, but she dropped the issue.
Charlotte looked out of the window at the city view. The familiar streets reminded her of Zachary and everything they did together.
Snippets of memory flashed before her so lucidly as if everything happened yesterday.
Those were unforgettable moments they shared together, but she had chosen to bury them in her heart forever.
âI saw Ms. Lindbergâs car just now,â Ben whispered in Zacharyâs ear, but Zachary ignored him and sat down, looking at Nancy with a smile.
âWelcome to H City.â
âThanks, Mr. Nacht.â
Nancy was not the rigid and polite woman she was when she met Charlotte just now anymore. She put on her gentle and attractive self when she met Zachary.
âHave you been waiting for long?â
Zachary took a sweeping look at the place and saw the empty cups on the other table. He figured Charlotte must have visited.
âNot really. I actually met up with one of your friendsâMs. Lindbergâthe second major shareholder of Lindberg Corporation.â
Zachary was not expecting Nancy to be this candid. âWhy did you meet up with her?â
âItâs about this project,â Nancy replied, taking out the document. âSir Robert got in touch with me through Mr.
Murphy. He wanted me to replace Ms. Lindberg as the shareholder. I donât want to create any misunderstanding, so I asked her out to talk over it.â
âWhat did she say?â Zachary was curious.
âShe said she was annoyed that those people were so eager to get her replaced. She also said that people should just deal honestly instead of using dishonorable means to compete.â
âThis is very Charlotte.â
Zachary let down his defense and became friendlier.
âYeah. I think Ms. Lindberg is a forthright person. I really like her. Did you see her when youâre on the way here?â
âI didnât.â Did she see me when she left?
I wonder whatâs her reaction if she knows Iâm here with Nancy?
âItâs boring just having wine here,â Nancy said, sensing that Zacharyâs mind was somewhere else. âWhy not we go somewhere fun?â
âIâve been to all the fun places in H City.â
âI swear youâve never been to this one,â Nancy said mysteriously, âI bet youâll fall in love with this place.â
âWell, since you said so, Iâm all for it,â Zachary said, shrugging.
