Chapter 764
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Zachary went upstairs and walked past the room. Stopping his tracks at the entrance, he saw a few medical staff helping Cynthia up from the wheelchair and placing her on the bed.
Raina reminded, âSlowly.â
Even though they were careful with transferring her onto the bed, the IV needle on the back of Cynthiaâs hand was pulled, and blood started gushing out.
âGet me the medical kit.â Raina instructed the medical staffs before checking on Cynthia.
A few medical staffs took the medical kits and helped her in addressing Cynthiaâs wound.
One of them blurted out, âMs. Blackwood was heavily injured, but he ordered us to transfer her to another place and stopped us in the middle of the process. Is he doing this on purpose to torment her?â
Another medical staff chimed in to express her dissatisfaction. âThatâs right. Ms. Blackwood is too pitiful.â
âShut up!â Raina scolded as she focused on treating her patientâs wound.
Seeing how Raina lashed out at them, the two medical staffs lowered their heads and dared not to say another word.
Lying down on the bed, Cynthia was weak, but she wore a gentle smile all the while Raina was treating her wounds. After the doctor was done, she gestured with her hands to thank her.
âDonât sweat it, Ms. Blackwood.â The medical staffs were worried about Cynthia.
Seeing everything unfold in front of him, Zachary couldnât help but feel guilty, so he walked into the room.
âMr. Nacht,â Raina hurriedly bowed, greeting him respectfully, while other medical staff followed as their hearts started racing.
They were worried that Zachary might overhear what they said.
The man waved dismissively for Raina and the medical staff to leave the room.
âDid I disturb you just now?â He stood at the end of the bed to put some distance between them.
âI wasnât asleep.â Shaking her head, Cynthia smiled and explained using sign language. âMy houseâs currently not safe for staying, and my dad is returning to M Nation. So, Mr. Henry asks me to stay here in the meantime. Sorry for intruding.â
She was thoughtful, humble, and gentle that others couldnât bring themselves to hate her.
âNot at all.â Zachary said politely, âI wasnât picking on you just now. Please donât mind it.â
Cynthia smiled gently. âI understand. Iâve heard that this room belonged to Mrs. Nacht. Sorry for staying here, and Iâll move tomorrow morning.â
Zacharyâs voice was reassuring. âItâs fine. The side house is covered in dust, and it isnât suitable to stay.
You can stay here. No worries.â
âAre you not angry?â Cynthia looked at him anxiously.
âThereâs nothing to be mad about.â With that, Zachary glanced back to make sure that the door was closed. Then he cut to the chase. âI need your help with something.â
âMe?â Cynthia widened her eyes in surprise as she pointed at herself. âWhat can I do for you?â
The man said, âGrandpaâs too strict with me, and itâs causing a break in our relationship. Plus, I wish he can return to M Nation to rehabilitate as soon as possible since his health isnât very wellâ¦â
After pausing for a brief while, the man asked, âCan you help me convince him?â
âOf course. However, my advice may not work. Iâll try my best.â Cynthia smiled faintly while looking at the man.
âThank you.â After thanking the woman, Zachary turned around and left.
As Cynthia watched him walk away, complicated feelings filled her heart.
Zachary returned to his room and took a bath. He lay down on the bed before taking out Gigoloâs phone. Looking at the call logs of conversations with Charlotte, he couldnât help but text her: Are you asleep?
Charlotte didnât reply to his message.
Zachary was disappointed. What is she doing?
At night, Zachary had a weird dream. In his dream, Charlotte was pointing a gun at him as she bombarded him with a flurry of questions. âWhy did you send me away and order people to kill me?
Why do I have to be humiliated by others because of you? What about Mrs. Berry? Why did you get her killed?â
He wanted to explain everything to her so badly, but he couldnât seem to make a sound.
With a bitter expression, Charlotte was about to pull the trigger at him.
Right at that moment, Henry showed up. He came into view with his wheelchair and took all the blame.
âI did everything. It has nothing to do with others.â
Charlotte smirked wickedly. âGo to hell!â
With that, she fired at Henryâs head.
