Chapter 651
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Zachary took the antidote from her and fed it to Charlotte.
Smirking, Zara revealed, âThis is only part of the antidote. Iâll hand you the rest when my company is back on track and the shares are transferred to Chris.â
âThere are a few parts to the antidote?â Zachary furrowed his brows.
âTen bottles,â sneered Zara. âShe has to take it ten times, my dear nephew.â
Raw anger shot through Zachary as he raised his hand to hit her, but Spencer stopped him in time. âMr.
Zachary, calm down. Since Ms. Zara has agreed to hand over the antidote, she will not go back on her word. Donât worry. Mr. Nacht is here.â
âIâll transfer the shares now. Bring the rest of the antidote here.â
Henry gestured for the bodyguards to release Zara.
âReally?â Zara seemed to fear Henry.
Henry scoffed, âHave I ever gone back on my word?â
âOkay. Iâll make the call now.â Zara clutched her phone and went aside to make the phone call.
âDo you know what you have to do?â Henry turned to Zachary. âAfter she takes the antidote, send her away. Peace will be restored. Donât be stubborn!â
Zachary couldnât take his eyes off Charlotte. He knew he had no other choice but to give in for now.
âAlright.â Zachary finally caved in. âI will deal with it myself. I donât need your help.â
âSure,â agreed Henry readily. âAnyway, everything you do will be reported to me.â
Outsiders might not understand their conversation, but Spencer knew exactly what it meant.
Zachary insisted on taking care of the matter himself because he was afraid Henry would kill her in secret.
Henry allowed Zachary to deal with the matter. He was made it clear that if Zachary pretended to send her away and hid her somewhere else, heâd still find out about it.
Clearly, they were threatening each other.
âMs. Windt has regained consciousness!â Ben suddenly exclaimed.
Turning back, Zachary saw Charlotteâs fingers moving slowly. Her expression contorted as though she was about to wake up anytime.
âDonât be sloppy. Deal with her before the kids realize what happened!â
With that, Henry left with the others, including Zara.
Ben left the room and stood guard at the door.
Zachary picked Charlotte up and asked anxiously, âCharlotte, how are you feeling?â
Slowly, Charlotteâs eyelids fluttered open. Her vision was still blurry as she asked, âWhat happened?â
âOh, itâs nothing. You fell asleep.â
Zachary held her so tight that she almost couldnât breathe.
I wish I can hold her in my arms forever.
That way, she wonât leave me.
Charlotte began coughing in his tight embrace.
Immediately, Zachary released his grip on her and patted her back. âIâm sorry.â
âMm,â Charlotte grunted in acknowledgment and forced out a smile. âItâs fine. Iâve gotten used to it.â
âWhatâs wrong?â Charlotte reached out to caress his cheek. âWeâre married. Why arenât you happy?â
âI am.â Zachary kissed the ring on her hand. âWifey!â
âHubby!â Charlotte replied sweetly.
âIâve put on the ring,â said Zachary as he raised his left hand. âWeâre legally married!â
âWhen did you put it on?â Charlotte demanded in surprise. âI should put it on for you, right?â
She removed his ring and put it on for him solemnly.
