Chapter 938
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âMr. Nacht.â Suddenly, Cain came rushing in to report, âThe Lindbergs are here!â
Zachary turned around, regaining the frostiness of his past. âWhat are they doing here?â
âI have no idea. But, Mr. Robinson seems to be in one of the cars.â Cain meekly added, âThe eagle is here too!â
âEagle?â Taylorâs face turned pale as he gave Cynthia a troubled look.
Panicking, Cynthia hurried to Zacharyâs side and grabbed his sleeve. She signed, âZachary, Iâm scared.â
âDonât be afraid,â Zachary plainly replied. âShe is just dropping Robbie off and wonât be staying long.â
Just as he spoke, he gently pushed her hand away and strode out.
If not for the fact he was pretending to be calm, he would have sprinted out without any hesitation. Suppressing his emotions, he couldnât let Charlotte know that she had fallen into the trap he set for her.
Meanwhile, the villaâs huge metal gate remained closed. Without Zacharyâs orders, the bodyguards werenât authorized to open it.
Some of the bodyguards naturally recognized Charlotte. As for those who were transferred over by Henry, they were still awed by the Lindberg familyâs prowess despite not knowing who Charlotte was.
Just the sight of the jeep with a large golden âLâ emblem was enough to strike fear into them.
âOpen the gate!â
When Ben realized that Charlotte had arrived with Robbie, he thought about the message that he got Marino to send. Hence, he ordered for the gate to be opened immediately.
âYes!â
The green colored gate gradually opened.
The Nacht familyâs bodyguards stood at attention in two neat rows, holding weapons in their arms.
It looked as if the Lindberg family was here for war.
After that, the three jeeps gradually entered in a domineering manner.
Fifi the eagle was standing right in front, glaring at the bodyguards as if to say all of them were scum.
Back in the villa, Taylor and Cynthia were terrified by the sight.
âCynthia, letâs back off for now,â Taylor whispered. âI heard that ever since Charlotte reemerged, she behaves like the devil himself. She even beat up your sister badly the last time. Moreover, with Mr. Lindberg behind her, we canât afford to step on her toes.â
âItâs too late for that now.â Looking towards the ground floor, Cynthia signed, âThis is not the time to back down.
After doing so much and arriving at the cusp of success, I cannot retreat from this!â
âWeâre only avoiding her for a while. Itâs not like weâre not coming back.â Taylor grew anxious. âShe has yet to recover her memory. But, if she finds out that you masqueraded as her during the wedding, she will definitely strangle you to death. Also, if she knew that you planted theâ¦â
Just when Cynthia shot him a glare, Taylor bit his tongue. Scanning the surroundings, he asked softly, âThis is Zacharyâs room. Iâm sure there arenât any cameras inside here, are there?â
âEnough.â Cynthia signed, âYou should head back first. All youâre doing is get in my way.â
âThe exit is blocked. How am I going to leave?â Taylor snapped, âNow, we have no choice but to wait for the Lindbergs to go. Besides, Iâm not going to leave you here all by yourself.â
Cynthia signed in exasperation, âIn that case, shut up.â
âFine,â Taylor grunted meekly.
After shooting him a glare, Cynthia turned and left.
Meanwhile, when Zachary saw the jeeps driving into the compound, he barked, âWho asked you to open the gate?â
âMr. Nacht, Ben did,â Cain replied reluctantly.
âBen, thatâs very brazen of you.â Zachary shot him an icy stare.
âMr. Nacht, Iâ¦â
âStep aside,â Zachary bellowed before striding out.
Furrowing his eyebrows, Ben moved aside.
When she saw what happened, Cynthia thought to herself, It seems Zachary has grown sick of Charlotte and doesnât welcome her at all. Instead, Charlotte has shamelessly come over uninvited.
