Chapter 1655
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Robbie isnât rescued yet, and I have to return to H City tomorrow morning. That means Danriqueâs plan wonât work because Iâd have to rescue Robbie before three in the afternoon tomorrow, and failure to do so will result in me losing this battle!
With that in mind, Charlotte grew incredibly anxious and gave Sean a call to explain the situation.
Although a little troubled, Sean said, âMr. Lindberg has ordered me to rescue Robbie within three days, so youâre basically requesting for things to be preponed by a day. Itâs going to be quite difficult, but Iâll try my best to get it done.â
âThanks. Iâll see if I can stall for more time,â Charlotte replied.
âAll right.â
Charlotte contacted Johann and Spencer immediately after getting off the phone. The two of them were trying their best to convince the directors to not sell off their shares.
Charlotte asked if they could try to postpone the board meeting, and they both said it would be very hard as she hadnât cashed out her shares. Even if she did, it would still take some time to be verified and validated.
As such, âZacharyâ was the one who called the shots in Nacht Group at the moment.
Even though his power had been limited due to the changes in his shares, it was still within his power to call for a board meeting.
Charlotte was shocked to find out that she could only hope for Sean to rescue Robbie as soon as possible.
She began checking the news after hanging up and saw that the Gold family had hosted a press conference to announce Zachary and Nancyâs wedding.
âZacharyâ even confirmed that news on camera in front of all the journalists.
Looks like Jesse is getting impatient. He might even have Chris and Nancy register their marriage before the board meeting⦠Though it is technically Chris who will be getting married, he is still pretending to be Zachary at the moment. Unfortunately, thereâs nothing I can do to stop all of this from happening unless I save Robbieâ¦
Charlotte frowned in displeasure at the thought of that.
Suddenly, Lupine came rushing in and said excitedly, âMs. Lindberg, Iâve just gotten a call from Morgan. He told me that Ben is awake.â
âReally? So soon?â Charlotte exclaimed in shock.
âYeah! I didnât think heâd wake up so soon either! Heâs still very weak at the moment, but he was able to wave his hand and talk to me on video call earlier!â Lupine was so happy that she nearly cried tears of joy.
Charlotte gave her a pat on the shoulder. âThis is great! You should head back right away. It is times like these that he needs you the most.â
âNo way! What will you do if Iâm gone?â Lupine asked worriedly.
âIâve got Emma to look after me, remember? You should hurry up and get a move on. Use this opportunity to ask Ben what happened before he lost consciousness. Talk to the police and find out if we can file a lawsuit against Chris with Benâs testimony.â
âUnderstood. Iâll be on my way now.â
Lupine was so excited that she bolted right out of the room after saying that, much to Charlotteâs relief.
Everything is ready now. All thatâs left is to rescue Robbie, and we will be good to go. I wonder how things are with Zachary⦠Ben was able to wake up so quickly thanks to Francescoâs help, so what about him? Has he recovered as well?
âDr. Felchâs prescription really is effective! He is able to move his arm in just one day of medication!â Francesca exclaimed happily when she saw that Zachary was able to move his arm.
âMy body doesnât feel as stiff as it was before!â Zachary said excitedly. It took him a lot of effort just to make very slight movements, but it was enough to give him hope.
Francesca nodded in satisfaction at her achievement. âVery well then. Weâll increase the dosage tonight. Who knows, you might be able to lift your entire arm up by tomorrow!â
âHelp me up. Iâll see if I can sit upright.â
Zachary had grown sick and tired of lying down all the time.q
