Chapter 619
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âThatâs true. I suppose youâre right.â The next moment, Henry mocked, âThose two adults are not as clever as Robbie. Do you really think they are capable of teaching Robbie that?â
Spencer tittered. âOh, Mr. Nacht, that is too unfair to Mr. Zachary. We all know heâs a clever person.â
âHmph! That cheeky rascal is indeed guileful.â Henry was unhappy when he thought of Zachary. âHe might not have taught Robbie that, but Iâm sure he was the one who asked the kids to persuade me.â
Spencer, too, could tell that Zachary was the one behind all that. âYouâre right, or the kids wouldnât come home half an hour earlier.â
Henry was distressed when he thought about the kidsâ persuasion. âEven though it was the cheeky rascalâs idea to have the kids persuade me, but I know the kids really meant what they said.â
âMr. Nacht, do allow me to be honest with you.â Spencer stole a glance at Henryâs expression before he continued speaking, âThe kids are very determined to stay with their mother. If you insist on separating the family, they will definitely hate you. The kids are strong-minded, especially Mr. Robinson. If he really leaves with his mother, then Iâm afraidâ¦â
Before he could finish his words, Henry interrupted him. âYou silly old bugger! You know Iâm frustrated right now, and youâre still going to scare me? You should think of something to help me out!â
He hammered the ground with his cane in anger.
Spencer was frightened as he took a step backward. He then said with a hint of uncertainty, âMr. Nacht, if I tell you my opinion on this matter, Iâm afraid you will be mad at me.â
âI wonât. Go ahead, tell me.â Henry was at his witâs end. He really needed someone elseâs opinion.
âUm⦠Well⦠Actually, I thinkâ¦â Spencer was hesitant. Eventually, he bit the bullets and spoke his mind, âMr. Zachary is determined to marry Ms. Windt, and the two of them already have three children.
Itâs impossible that you could separate them. Why donât you give your blessing to them?â
âYou old silly bugger! I asked you to think of a way to separate them, but now youâre helping them to persuade me?â
Henry angrily hit Spencer with his cane. Though, the force he used was much smaller than when he hit Zachary.
After all, unlike Zachary, who was tough enough to withstand his beatings, Spencer was almost eighty years old now.
Spencer complained, âYou said you wouldnât be mad! And now you lose your temper. How could you not keep your promise?â
âHow dare you talk back!â Henryâs anger was further aroused.
Spencer was quick to apologize, âI wouldnât dare to. Mr. Nacht. To be honest, I said that because I thought of Mr. Harrison.â
The butler mentioned Harrisonâs name in a barely audible voice.
Harrison, Zacharyâs late father, was a man world-famous for his talents. He was not interested in doing business, and he was strong-willed in marrying the woman he loved.
Yet, he was forced by Henry to learn how to do business. Not only that, but the latter had also forced him to leave his girlfriend and marry a woman from a noble family. Eventually, Harrison didnât achieve any success in his career, and his love life was a mess.
To Henryâs eternal regret and loss, Harrison and his wife died at an early age in an accident.
Henry would definitely be angry if someone dared mention Harrison in front of him. Yet, at that point, he was not, for his butler had spoken his mind and pointed out his biggest worry.
âThe Lindberg family indeed has unshirkable responsibility for the tragedy, but if we didnât force Mr.
Harrison, perhapsâ¦â Spencer stopped mid-sentence, not daring to continue.
He stole a glance at Henryâs expression before speaking out in a low voice, âI think Mr. Zacharyâs love for Ms. Windt is comparable or even exceeds Mr. Harrisonâs for that woman from the Lindberg family.
âIâm afraid if we insist on separating them, the same tragedy will happen again.
âMr. Nacht, youâre ninety-six years old now. If anything happens to Mr. Zachary, do you think you have that much time to cultivate Mr. Robinson into becoming the heir of the Nacht family?â
