Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Chapter 1585 Taking Over âWellâ¦â
Chris hesitated at the mention of divorce. He wanted to take revenge, but he couldnât forget Charlotte.
After he became the imposter, there were a few occasions where he got to get closer to her. Alas, those chances always fell through the drain. As he failed to get her, the urge to conquer her became more overwhelming.
He was hell-bent on making her his.
Charlotte was stubborn and difficult. If they were to get a divorce, she would never be his.
âYou need to divorce her as soon as possible,â Jesse stated firmly. âAfter the divorce, the Nacht familyâs assets will be yours, and yours alone. Otherwise, Charlotte will have an excuse to butt in. Besides, Danrique is about to make a comeback. If you wait till he succeeds, heâll have a reason to interfere in the Nacht familyâs business. By then, it will be hard to cut ties with them.â
âI understand.â Chris came up with an excuse. âIâll get a divorce. However, Iâm afraid Charlotte might disagree. You know how difficult she is.â
âI have a way to make her agree to the divorce,â Jesse told him confidently. âDonât worry. Iâll arrange everything.
Just do as I say.â
âAre you going to use the children to threaten her?â Chris cast him a disgusted look. âYouâre indeed despicable.â
âWeâre on the same boat.â Instead of getting mad, Jesse flashed a grin. âAll is fair in war!â
Knowing it was too late to regret his decision, Chris fell silent. He soon changed the topic. âAll right. You should get down here. Weâre about to arrive at the company.â
âSure.â Jesse put out his cigar and reminded, âDo as I say. Today, youâll have to make the adjustments to station our men inside the company. Other matters can wait.â
âGot it,â Chris answered impatiently.
The car rolled to a stop. Jesse got off the car with his men and entered another car.
Jesse stared at the Gold familyâs car through the window scornfully. As a member of the Nacht family, he was an arrogant man who had his boundaries. Jesse, on the other hand, was a despicable man who would even harm children just to achieve his goals.
There is no end to his shamelessness!
âMr. Broid,â his subordinate called out.
Chris glared at the man, and the latter immediately corrected himself, âMr. Nacht.â
âGo ahead,â Chris replied icily.
âMr. Gold is an ambitious man. You need to keep your guard up,â his subordinate warned him in a low voice. âIf he ends up taking over in the end, youâllâ¦â
âI know that.â Chrisâs brows scrunched up in irritation. âI wonder if the report was true.â
âAre you talking about the poison?â His subordinate nodded profusely. âI find that strange, too. Back in Divine Corporation, they found traces of poison in your blood. When you questioned Mr. Gold, he said Ms. Lindberg and the old man had lied to you. He brought you to the hospital for another examination, and the results showed you werenât poisoned. Now that I recall the incident, the report mustâve been tampered with. After all, the hospital belonged to the Gold family.â
âI want to test my blood again. Make an appointment at another hospital,â Chris ordered. âMake sure no one finds out about it.â
âYes. Iâll make the arrangements now.â His subordinate immediately got to work.
By then, the car had arrived at Divine Corporation. A bunch of journalists had surrounded the car. Chris gathered himself and assumed Zacharyâs arrogance before alighting from the car.
âMr. Nacht! Mr. Nacht!â
The journalists swarmed around him and asked earnestly, âWeâve received news that youâre divorcing Ms. Lindberg.
Is that true?âq
