Chapter 854
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
Even if they ignore everything else, getting the reporters and paparazzi to barge into the place at the right moment would be a difficult enough task.
What the hell is going on?
Ben couldnât figure it out at all.
At that moment, the only thing he could do was to obey Zacharyâs orders and keep the media contained. I will have to wait until Mr. Nacht wakes up before I can deal with everything else.
Ben never expected Zachary to sleep until the next afternoon.
Heâs probably exhausted. Add that to the fact that he drank a lot on the night before, and I guess itâs understandable why heâs not waking up regardless of how much I call out.
Still, they needed Zachary to make the decisions, so Ben knocked on the door a few more times. No one came to answer, anyway.
It was the weekends, so all three kids had a tuition class at home. They were heading down the stairs to have lunch after their class. That was when they saw Ben pacing in circles in front of Zacharyâs bedroom. Robbie stepped forward and asked, âWhatâs wrong, Mr. Ben?â
âI have some urgent matter to report to your daddy,â replied Ben anxiously, âMr. Robbie, do you mind getting in and checking?â
âNo problem,â said Robbie before he knocked on the door. No one responded, so Robbie immediately informed, âDaddy, Iâm coming in, okay?â
As Robbie spoke, he opened the door and walked into the room. Jamie and Ellie followed along.
âDaddy is sleeping so soundly,â commented Ellie.
She had walked to the bedside and saw that Zachary was hugging his pillow and sleeping away soundly. He was frowning a little and was snoring a bit.
âDaddyâ¦â called out Jamie softly, âWake up. Mr. Ben is looking for you.â
Zachary didnât react.
Robbie headed over and checked Zacharyâs breathing before turning to Jamie and Ellie, then saying, âDaddy is fine.
We should leave for now.â
âOkay,â replied the other kids, before all three of them exited the room together.
Ben asked anxiously, âHow did it go?â
âDaddy is still sleeping. He is probably too tired,â replied Robbie calmly, âMr. Ben, did something serious happen? Is that why youâre so nervous? Maybe you can tell me about it.â
Ben turned speechless and was stunned for a moment there. He sounded a little exasperated when he informed, âThese are adultâs matter. Youâre still too youngâ¦â
âI often help my daddy read through his documents, so I should be able to help him out a little when it comes to his work,â said Robbie, while staring at the documents that Ben was holding. Robbie suggested, âHow about this? Iâll just read it in the study room.â
âAlright, I guess no harm will happen,â said Ben before he followed Robbie into the study room. The former handed the documents over and reminded, âHere, Mr. Robbie. Take a look. I have other matters to tend to and will come to you later. Just read the documents, okay? Donât do anything else to it.â
âGot it, go work.â
Robbie sat on Zacharyâs leather chair and started reading the documents in Ustranasion. As he read, a tiny frown crept up his browsâ¦
âWhatâs wrong, Robbie?â asked Jamie. He had to tiptoe to see the words on the documents, but even then, he could only make little sense of it. He asked, âWhatâs written there?â
âSomething is up with the company,â answered Robbie while frowning grimly, âThe share prices are fluctuating, and the shareholders are looking for Daddy. There are a lot of negative rumors attacking Daddy, and it would affect Daddy greatly.â
âReally? What do we do?â said Ellie. She was terrified, and her tiny face turned pale.
âDonât worry. Daddy will deal with it.â
Robbie read the documents one by one. His gaze ultimately landed on a document with the name Charlotte Lindberg on it. What truly surprised him was that the ladyâs photo showed that the woman was his Mommy!
Robbie blinked. He picked up that document and examined it carefully. Yes, that is, without a doubt, Mommy, but the name listed is Charlotte Lindberg. It says that she is the vice president of Lindberg Corporationâ¦
There was also a detailed description underneath. It told him how many shares Charlotte held in Lindberg Corporation, her influence around the globe, her achievements in the business world. It even showed the projects she handled overseas and in the South Seaâ¦
Reading on, Robbie learned that the shareholders in the company strongly suspect that the woman was responsible for the attacks on his Daddy and the corporation.
âRobbie, whatâs wrong? Why do you look so terrible?â asked Jamie in a worried tone as he stared at Robbie.
