Chapter 847

Zachary rushed all the way to Storm Hotel, but he was still twenty minutes late.

Cynthia had been waiting for a while. She had a white dress on and looked regal, yet cute. She was staring out the window the entire time…

“Mr. Nacht,” said the manager as he hurried over to greet the guy warmly, “It’s been a while since you last visited.”

It has been a while…

Zachary used to take Charlotte to the hotel, but they always head right to the rooms…

Cynthia stood up quickly upon hearing that voice. She smiled at him and signed with her hand, ”Zachary, you’re here!”

“Sorry for being late,” said Zachary as he sat down and cleaned his hands with a wet towel.

“It’s fine. I was here early.”

Cynthia signed while smiling, but she never realized that Zachary wasn’t even looking at her.

She handed the menu to him. When he reached out to take the menu, his gaze shifted to her for a while before he said, “You can go ahead and order what you want. I don’t have an appetite.”

Cynthia nodded and ordered a few dishes before pointing at the decanter. She signed, “I brought two bottles of exquisite wine from home. It’s been decanted. Try and see if you like it.”

The waiter poured half a glass of wine for Zachary.

Zachary sipped some before complimenting, “Hmm… It’s pretty good.”

“It’s from my dad’s collection. He said that you would like it,” signed Cynthia with a smile.

Zachary waved his hand and got everyone to leave.

“Did your dad ask you to come to see me?” asked Zachary to get right to the point.

“That’s right,” replied Cynthia before she nodded and added, “Everything at home is in a mess now. He and Sharon tried everything, but they simply couldn’t solve the issue. That’s why he asked me to ask for your help.”

Zachary didn’t say a word. He simply enjoyed the wine gracefully.

There was no way he could butt in on the matter, but he wasn’t sure how to reject Cynthia without hurting her or going against his principles.

“I understand that this is difficult for you. The Nachts and the Lindbergs have always been equal, and the Lindbergs are an even bigger threat to the Nachts now that they have made it into the local market. If you help my family out at a crucial moment like this, Nacht Group will be in trouble too,” signed Cynthia.

Zachary was surprised to see Cynthia being so understanding. He knew that she was kind, but he never expected her to be that clear-minded. Something that huge has befallen her family, yet she is still able to analyze the situation with a clear mind…

“That is why I am not here today to ask for your help. I was forced to at least put on a show to get them to back off.

That is why I will have to trouble you to have a meal with me,” signed Cynthia in exasperation.

“Thank you…” murmured Zachary softly. He was thanking her from the bottom of his heart.

He might not have any romantic feelings for Cynthia, but he truly appreciated what she had done for the Nachts.

Moreover, she was being so considerate at that moment, so he was touched.

“Don’t say that. You never have any obligation to help my family, anyway,” replied Cynthia as she looked sincerely at him, “Truth is, my dad is a terrible businessman. The only reason Synder Group can grow to this extent is because he has been profiting off of the Nachts’ reputation.”

Zachary had long wanted to say those words…

Henry might seem cruel and distant, but Taylor once rescued Harrison back in the days. Hence, Henry had been taking care of the Blackwoods for over twenty years.

Every time the Blackwoods got into trouble, Henry would remind everyone of that incident. Henry even tried to force Zachary to marry Sharon back in the days and insisted that the Blackwoods were amazing. At the time, Zachary was tempted to refute by saying that the Nachts were the ones who gave the Blackwoods everything they had.

Zachary even had to pay the Blackwoods a hefty amount of money after he got out of marrying Sharon.

He didn’t care much about the money, but the injustice was annoying him.

Unfortunately, Taylor had always acted polite and humble in front of the other Nachts, so Zachary was not in a position to say anything.

The injustice Zachary felt finally dissipated after Cynthia spoke up about it in such an understanding manner.
