Chapter 790
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Everyone around Zachary was startled by his sudden outburst. They knew he was a good fighter, but they werenât aware of his immense strength.
Bang! Another kick from Zachary, and the door was open.
âWhat do you think youâre doing?â Morgan trained her gun on Zachary. âThis is Ms. Lindbergâs room.
You arenât allowed to⦠â
Before she could finish, Zachary had rushed into the room.
Zachary traced Charlotteâs voice into the bathroom and immediately made his way there.
Lupine, who was at the bathroom door, tried to stop Zachary. âHow dare you! This is the Lindbergâs⦠â
Nonetheless, Zachary had no patience for her either as he roughly pushed her away. He was so strong that Lupine fell onto the floor.
As soon as he stepped into the bathroom, he was shocked at the scene laid out in front of him.
Charlotte was lying naked in the bathtub, screaming at the top of her lungs as her hands covered her ears.
She was bleeding so much from her nose, mouth, and eyes that the water in the bathtub had been dyed red.
Zacharyâs heart almost broke at the sight of Charlotte. Despite the terrifying scene in front of him, he ran up to hug her tight as he shouted for Raina.
When Raina saw the state Charlotte was in, she decided to sedate her first.
However, Charlotte kept struggling and thrashing about like a wild beast on the loose.
Left without a choice, Zachary grabbed Charlotteâs hands to hold her down. Yet she used her legs to kick Raina instead. No matter how hard Raina tried, she just couldnât get near Charlotte.
Thus, Zachary decided to step into the bathtub and used his body to press down on Charlotte, his hands on hers.
Charlotte continued to struggle, but she wasnât strong enough to break free from Zachary.
When she realized she couldnât move her arms or legs, she bit down hard on Zacharyâs neck.
Zachary screamed in agony. It felt like she was about to rip his flesh off, but he couldnât care less. âDo it now!â he ordered Raina.
âOk, ok,â Raina whimpered, her hands shaking as she injected Charlotte with the sedative.
Just then, Lupine and Morgan barged in and tried to stop them, but Louis stepped in to pull them away.
âThatâs a sedative. Itâs the only way to ease Charlotteâs pain.â
Sure enough, Charlotte quietened down almost immediately. She went limp in Zacharyâs arms and closed her eyes. âPlease, please donât kill Mrs. Berry. Donât kill herâ¦â she whimpered.
Upon hearing those words, Zachary felt a throbbing pain in his heart. He couldnât imagine what Charlotte had to go through two years ago that left her with such a bad trauma.
With Charlotte asleep, Louis finally heaved a sigh of relief. âIâm so glad thatâs over. She almost scared me to death!â
âSir Louis, please step outside.â Lupine and Morgan urged. They had a scene to clean up, and they didnât want more people getting involved.
âI didnât see anything.â
That was the truth. Louis had been standing by the bathroom door the whole time. Other than Charlotteâs face, he couldnât see anything else.
âMr. Nacht, please⦠â
Before Lupine could continue, Zachary had already carried Charlotte out of the bathtub. He wrapped a towel around her before laying her on the bed.
Zachary couldnât stand to see her in so much pain, but he knew he couldnât stay. Hence, he turned to Lupine and Morgan. âWipe her dry and get her dressed.â
With that, he left the room.
Raina was about to follow suit when Lupine stopped her. âDr. Langhan, please wait.â
Raina instantly stopped in her tracks.
âCan you please help us?â
âOf course.â
Louis ran up to Zachary just as he was coming out of Charlotteâs room. âOh my god, your neck is bleeding.â
âWhereâs your room?â Zachary replied curtly.
Quickly, Louis led him to his room, and Zachary stepped into the bathroom to clean himself up.
When Zachary stepped back out again in a bathrobe, Louis poured him a glass of wine. âAre you okay?
Do you need to go to the hospital?â he asked with genuine concern.
