Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 1542 A Big Move Without delay, Lucy went out to get the journalists.
Those shareholders and upper management were left bewildered. âWhatâs going on? We are having a board meeting. How could we let the journalists come in here?â
âHave you gotten Mr. Nachtâs approval before you did that?â
âAbsolutely!â
âBefore Mr. Nacht came back, we had no choice but to let you run things. But now that heâs back, you should know your place.â
Kallumâs words were filled with dismay and doubt.
Charlotte responded politely, âI invited the journalists in here to give a clear explanation in front of everyone. I am sure we donât want any confusion in the future, right?â
âMr. Nacht should be the one making that call too.â
The shareholders expressed their protest. They did not think Charlotte was wrong but merely thought she should not be the one making the decision.
âCharlotteâs opinion represents mine.â
âZacharyâ finally opened his mouth. However, he still seemed to observe Charlotteâs response while speaking.
Everyone turned even more displeased upon seeing that. However, they did not dare to say anything since Zachary had spoken.
Soon, the journalists came in. They mostly asked about the recent news and the relationship between Charlotte and Michael. No one touched on Zachary and Nancy.
âZacharyâ answered all questions according to the way Charlotte taught him. He seemed more natural in front of the journalists than facing those shareholders.
All the journalistsâ questions could be answered with generally three answers.
First, Zachary trusted Charlotte completely and believed she was merely friends with Michael.
Secondly, they were united as a couple, and they had never disagreed on anything.
Thirdly, he did not feel well, and he was the one who transferred the assets to Charlotte and let her manage the company.
âZacharyâ expressed those three points clearly without any hesitation.
The shareholders and upper managementâs hearts grew wary upon hearing his statement.
Those journalists intended to ask some questions further. However, Charlotte cast a look at Lucy, and the latter swiftly invited them out.
One of the journalists suddenly asked loudly, âMr. Nacht, we heard you are being controlled by Ms. Lindberg. Is that true?â
Instantly, the room fell into dead silence. Everyone locked their eyes on âZacharyâ and Charlotte.
âZacharyâ did not show his previous domineering and calm aura. Instead, he looked panicked, as though his lie was exposed.
âWe heard that you got sick because you got poisoned. And it was the snake venom from the Lindberg family. In other words, the Lindberg family drugged you in order to control youâ¦â
That journalist continued to press on the topic. âIs that real?â
His questions left everyone utterly shocked and frightened.
âZacharyââs expression darkened, his gaze filled with uneasiness.
The color drained from the shareholdersâ and upper managementâs faces. Kallum and a few shareholders immediately surrounded âZacharyâ. âMr. Nacht, is that true?â
âMr. Nacht, you donât need to be afraid. There are so many of us. The Lindberg family wonât dare to do anything to you.â
âMr. Nacht, please tell us the truth.â
âMr. Nachtâ¦â
âZacharyâ remained silent throughout the whole time. Sweat kept rolling down his forehead.
Charlotte narrowed her eyes, staring at him. I finally understand what their play is. Thatâs brilliantâ¦
âPlease ask the journalists to leave first.â
Right then, Johann opened his mouth.
Lucy immediately asked a few security guards to escort those journalists out.
The journalists were still busy taking photos of âZacharyâ who had a panicked look.q
