Chapter 1658
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
After finding herself three huge bags, Francesca checked them carefully for holes for fear of the money falling out.
She then placed the bags into the van and dusted her hands off with a huge grin on her face.
âOnce I get my hands on that money, Iâll take my kids and go somewhere far awayâ¦â Francesca mumbled to herself as she looked back at the wooden hut.
As long as I donât treat Zachary fully, he will forever be under my control! Heâll have no choice but to protect me from Danrique! Hehe, Iâm so smart!
The smile on her face grew wider at the thought of that.
Unbeknownst to Francesca, Zachary was staring coldly at her through the window of the wooden hut.
She mustâve come up with some kind of scheme if she has that cunning smile on her face! I wonder if Charlotte has managed to find Robbieâ¦
Zachary was snapped out of his train of thoughts when his phone began to ring. Seeing as it was a call from Raina, he reached his stiff arm out to grab the phone and answer the call.
âHello?â
âMr. Nacht!â
After reporting to him in detail about the current situation, Raina added, âChris has announced his marriage with Nancy to the public in your name. I believe they will get the registration done tomorrow morning. On top of that, almost half the directors have sold their shares to Jesse. According to Mr. Williamsâ calculations, he now has seven percent of the companyâs shares. I just donât get it. He canât do anything with just seven percent! I mean, Chrisâ
shares donât belong to himâ
âIf Chris transfers all of his shares over to Jesse, he will own twenty-seven of the companyâs shares and become a major shareholder of Nacht Group.â
Zachary had seen right through it all.
âHuh? Are you serious? Ms. Lindberg whipped out a contract that she signed with you, but it needs to be validated by the companyâs accountants and authenticated by the people from the notary office. Itâll take two to three days before the shares can be transferred over to her. Even if Chris transfers his shares over to Jesse today, he still wouldnât be able to get it done in time!â Raina exclaimed in shock.
âToday? You have really underestimated Jesse, Raina. I bet he has already started the transfer on the same day as Charlotte!â Zachary replied with a sneer.
âWouldnât Chris object to it?â
âHow would he when his life is in Jesseâs hands? All Jesse has to do is get the paperwork ready and force him to sign it today for the authentication process.â
That was when Raina truly understood the severity of the situation. âOh, my god! I feel bad for Mr. Sterk and Mr.
Spencer! They approached the directors one by one and begged them not to sell their shares over to Jesse, but their efforts were all in vain! What should we do now, Mr. Nacht? Shall I inform Ms. Lindberg about this immediately?â
âThat wonât be necessary. Let her search for Robbie in peace. Leave the company affairs to me.â
âBut youâre-â
âStop arguing with me. How is Ben?â
âOh, right⦠Ben has woken up half an hour ago, but he doesnât seem to be in good condition.â
âCan he talk?â
âYes, he can. It takes him a lot of effort, but he can express himself clearly.â
âVery good. Try to get the others to leave so I can give Ben a call.â
âUnderstood, Iâll see to it right away!â
Zachary then hung up the phone and went into deep thought. One by one, my traps are being laid out. All thatâs left is that one personâ¦
He punched a number into his phone after hesitating for a bit, but there was no answer.
The person answered the call after Zachary dialed the number a second time, and an impatient voice could be heard on the other line. âHello?â
âItâs me.â
Nancy froze in shock when she heard his voice. She then turned around to look at the door of the study room.
I saw Fatherâs men drag Chris in there an hour ago! Thereâs no way he could give me a call! On top of that, Chris doesnât have a deep and unique voice like this!q
