Chapter 873
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âThis is the footage from the car Marino was driving. It recorded everything.â
Ben had already sent the footage to the tablet.
Zachary took the tablet and got into the car. He watched the footage as he listened to Marinoâs report on the matter.
Zachary, Bruce, and Ben were all shaken to their core when they finished watching everything.
âHoly moly, Ms. Windt is so strong now,â praised Ben from the bottom of his heart, âShe is completely different from the woman she used to be two years ago!â
âI know, right?â blurted Bruce, who was a little excited as well. âI feel so fired up after watching this footage. Itâs too bad I wasnât there earlier. If I were, I wouldâve stood beside Ms. Lindberg and fought Zara with everything I have.â
Bruce was no longer addressing Zara in a formal or respectful way because he thought that she was no longer worthy of it.
Kidnapping her nephewâs kids, killing her own people⦠She is not worthy of being treated like a human after everything she did.
âMs. Lindberg couldâve left earlier, but she ignored the bad blood between us and risked her life to save usâ¦â
shared Marino before he added, âI feel so bad now. If the opportunity ever presents itself, I will surely repay her kindness.â
âI have told you this. Ms. Lindberg might have changed her name, but she is still the kind and honorable person she has always been. Itâs worrisome, though. She helped us today and will probably get in trouble because of it,â said Bruce.
âYeah, the consequences will be dire if Danrique finds out about thisâ¦â
Benâs eyes glowed with worry as he stared at Zachary.
Zachary kept quiet and seemed burdenedâ¦
The three men stopped talking because they worried that theyâd disturb him.
Just then, the rain started pouring. The water droplets slid down and drenched the green around them. The surrounding trees also swayed as the wind blew at them. It seemed that even nature itself was anxious about the future.
Zachary kept staring out the window without saying a word.
Beep!
Bruceâs phone suddenly rang. He picked it up, and that got his expression to turn grim. He immediately reported to Zachary.
âZara fled. The police said that they have to investigate the matter and find clues before they report to the higher-
ups. Only then will they be able to apply for a warrant.â
âItâll be too late by then! If Zara actually inherits Nacht Group during this period, she will destroy all the evidence, and there will be nothing they can do!â growled Ben while frowning.
âThat is why she has the guts to act so recklessly,â said Zachary, who had been quiet the entire time. He was calm when he pointed out, âWe canât really blame the police, though. This is way beyond their pay grade, so itâs understandable that they are cautious.â
âThen⦠what do we do now?â asked Bruce carefully.
âThere are internal problems and external threats looming over us,â commented Zachary before he sighed and added, âWeâll just have to solve the issues one by one.â
âWeâve already handled the media, and the news about you and Ms. Blackwood has been taken down from the internet. Unfortunately, the netizens are now claiming that you are trying to dump Ms. Blackwood because you fell for someone else. In short, this incident has caused a huge problem for you and Divine Corporation,â reported Bruce softly.
âTaylor called once more. He wanted to talk to you. I think the Blackwoods are going to stick to you like parasites,â
informed Ben while frowning.
âDarn it, things would be bad regardless of what you do now,â replied Bruce, who couldnât help dissing, âI canât believe I thought that Taylor is a reasonable man. Turns out, he is pretty devious.â
âSend our men to check up on Sharon,â instructed Zachary all of a sudden.
âHuh?â blurted Bruce before he nodded and replied, âUnderstood.â
âCall the headquarters and have them send the funds over to help Synder Group out,â ordered Zachary again.
âHuh? Butâ¦â blurted Ben. He thought he had misheard his employer at the time.
âJust do as I say,â demanded Zachary.
âUnderstood,â replied Ben. He quickly did as requested. The board of directors was surprised when they heard the news.
It didnât take long before Johann called in person to confirm the instruction from Zachary. The latter simply replied, âYes, that is my instruction.â
