Chapter 1643

Chapter 1643 Provocation Suddenly, Chris had an epiphany. “Jesse, that’s a wonderful plan you have going for you. You were the one who drugged me and got me to sleep with your daughter so that I would marry her. And after making her my heir, you intend to kill me so that she would inherit Nacht Group, isn’t it?”

“What’s wrong with you?” Jesse thundered. “What did Charlotte say to you? Let me remind you that she’s just sowing discord between us. You had better not be such a fool—”

Before Jesse could finish, Chris ended the call and ordered, “Drive. We’re going to Fairlake.”

“Huh? We’re going to Fairlake now? But it’s three hundred kilometers away.”

His subordinates were surprised by the sudden decision to travel there.

“Just do it!” Chris snapped.

“Yes, sir,” the subordinate acknowledged.

At that moment, Chris was filled with anxiety, as his priority was to find out if he had been poisoned. Since all the hospitals in H City were under Jesse’s control, he planned to get himself examined somewhere else, which played into Charlotte’s hands.

Meanwhile, Charlotte received a call from Raina.

“Just as you predicted, Chris has gotten on the highway and is driving toward Fairlake.”

“It seems my words are working as they should.” Charlotte narrowed her eyes slightly.

“I’ll get in touch with the hospital in Fairlake.”

“There’s no need to,” Charlotte interrupted. “He won’t get there.”

“What?” Just when Raina put the question across, the answer dawned upon her right away. “Are you saying that Jesse will stop him?”

“Yes,” Charlotte sneered. “Given how formidable he is, he must be watching Chris from the shadows.”

“What about your plan?”

“Don’t worry. I have achieved my objective as long as Chris’ suspicion is aroused.”

“In that case, what should we do now?”

“Find Robbie and rescue him as soon as possible. Once we do that, I can go against Jesse without holding back.”

“Should I meet up with Bruce?”

“No, you should keep watch at home on my behalf while I travel to Yaleview.”

“Are you sure? You’re needed both at home and at the company.”

“The share transfer will take three days time. During this period, nothing is more important than saving Robbie.

Hence, take care of things at home for me, all right?”

“All right.”

“Given that Garden Villa has been taken over by Chris, Mr. Spencer can no longer return. Hence, you will have to settle him into Northridge. Consequently, the security of Northridge is now paramount. Do you understand?”

“Understood.”

After ending the call, Charlotte took a deep breath and looked out at the blazing sunset outside the window. The burden she felt in her heart weighed heavily on her.

Even though she was exhausted, she still needed to hurry toward Yaleview.

While traveling on the highway there, Charlotte received news that Chris’ car had been stopped by the Gold family, and he was subsequently led away.

As a result, she smiled contemptuously to herself, for she knew that Chris was unable to escape Jesse given the fool that he was.

Nonetheless, with Chris’ suspicion now aroused, Jesse’s plan would be impeded, especially with Nancy’s resistance.

With Jesse distracted by the two of them, Charlotte intended to use the opportunity to rescue Robbie.

After glancing at her watch, Charlotte ordered, “Drive faster.”

“Right away.”

As her car sped toward Yaleview, the Gold family’s convoy passed her by from the opposite direction.

From her window, Charlotte could see Chris having a heated argument with Jesse inside.

“Stop complaining and shut up,” Jesse exploded at Chris. He then asked his subordinate, “Was that the Lindbergs’

car that just passed us by?”

“It looks like it, Mr. Gold,” the subordinate replied.

“It seems she is heading to Yaleview to rescue her son.” Smirking, Jesse turned to Chris. “Did you see that? By sowing discord between us, Charlotte is trying to use you to distract me so that she can save her son.”q
