Chapter 989

“Oh, and there’s one more thing that you might not be aware of. Sharon was the one who attacked Charlotte and murdered Mrs. Berry in T Nation two years ago. Your daughter, Zara, was the one who instructed her from behind the scenes!”

“What did you say?” Henry’s eyes went wide in disbelief. “T-That’s impossible! Why would they do such a thing?”

“We found solid evidence of their actions, and I have handed it over to the police. As for why… Well, you’ll have to go ask your daughter! Not only did she try to assassinate Charlotte in T Nation, she even sent someone to kidnap Robbie! In the end, it was Charlotte who rescued Robbie. Zara went as far as shooting Kyle and killing my men just to force her into battle…” Zachary said with a frown.

“No, this can’t be… I know Zara is impulsive and will do anything to get what she wants, but she wouldn’t hurt her own people!” Henry was still in denial.

“The dashcam has captured everything on video. If you don’t believe me, you can either take a look at the footage yourself or ask the kids about it. They’ve witnessed everything first-hand,” Zachary said as he handed him a tablet.

Henry’s face went pale when he watched the footage, and his chest was hurting so much that he nearly fell off the wheelchair.

“Mr. Henry!” Spencer quickly stepped forward and fed him his medicine.

Zachary was hesitant to say any further when he saw how much pain Henry was in, but he went through with it anyway.

“I know I shouldn’t be telling you this now, but I have to show you the truth. Otherwise, you would never realize how misguided you were. Rather than enforcing your control over me, you should’ve focused your energy on disciplining Aunt Zara instead. A lot of tragedies could’ve been prevented if you did…”

Spencer quickly cut him off. “Stop it, Mr. Zachary. Mr. Henry’s heart can’t take any more of this.”

“Think about what I said.”

Zachary glanced at Henry once more before walking away.

Spencer then had Mrs. Rawlston fetch Henry a glass of water and waited for him to calm down before comforting him, “Mr. Henry, please don’t take what Mr. Zachary said to heart…”

Henry looked up at him and asked, “The horrible things that Zara did, and the Blackwood family’s true intentions…

Did you know about all that the whole time?”

Spencer frowned. “I only found out about it recently. Ms. Zara has always been rather unpleasant to get along with, but I didn’t think she’d do something this crazy. As for the Blackwoods… They did a really good job at concealing their true intentions, and I only noticed something was amiss last night.”

“I’m such a fool!”

Henry lowered his head in shame and regret.

It’s like Charlotte said… First it was Sharon, and now it’s Cynthia… Both of the women I had chosen for Zachary were vile and heartless, and yet I kept forcing him to marry them. I refused to listen to the advice from others and Zachary’s protests, and my stubbornness has led to one tragedy after another… I have focused all of my time and energy into controlling Zachary and ended up forgetting that my own daughter is the true villain. Like a ticking time bomb, Zara could cause trouble for the Nacht family anytime. By keeping Zachary under my control, I have left him defenseless against those threats…

“It’s time to let go, Mr. Henry…”

Spencer voiced out the one thing he had wanted to say for ages.

“It’s all my fault…” Henry mumbled, still plagued with sadness and regret.

Finally, I realize the number of mistakes I’ve made as a result of my stubbornness. Had I been smarter back then, my son and daughter-in-law might still be alive today! If I had trusted Zachary to manage his relationships by himself, I might’ve been able to prevent all of this from happening!
