Chapter 992
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
The news about it had spread like wildfire across all forms of media, and Nacht Group was mentioned in every title.
The press had confused the public by collectively referring to Zaraâs company as âNacht Groupâ, the netizens assumed everything the Nacht family owned was involved, including Divine Corporation which belonged to Zachary.
Zachary furrowed his brows when he saw those articles being rapidly spread all over the internet. Oh my⦠one problem after another! I knew my battle with Danrique had begun the day I wrongly accused him of poisoning Ellie, and now heâs officially made his move! Who says the Lindberg family sucks at corporate warfare? This act alone makes it obvious that Danrique is no pushover! Zara is a member of the Nacht family and could represent the Nacht Group. Thatâs why I held back against her instead of going all out. Knowing this, Danrique gathered evidence on Zaraâs crimes and post them all online to destroy the companyâs reputation!
Ben frowned. âDanrique sure is a cunning one⦠Zara had clearly left the family and started her very own company long ago, but he just had to link her with Nacht Groupâ¦â
âWell, she does own some of Nacht Groupâs shares. It isnât much, but itâs enough to qualify her as a shareholder, so I canât sue the media companies for using our company name anyway. This is whatâs clever about Danriqueâs strategy,â Zachary said calmly.
âWhat do we do now? All of Nacht Group will be affected if Zara canât clean up this mess!â Ben asked with a frown.
âShe wouldnât do so even if she could. Her goal was to get me involved so Iâd fix it for her. Because weâre both Nachts, we either survive this together or go down together!â Zachary explained with a sarcastic sneer.
Ben clenched his teeth in anger. âHow despicable! Do you think she might have released the information online as a means of making a comeback?â
âNo. Her company has been in shambles long ago, and Broid Group isnât doing well either. Thereâs no way she could possibly pay that many media companies to do her bidding, so this is obviously Danriqueâs doing!â Zachary said with certainty.
Ben nodded. âI suppose thatâs true⦠Sheâs about to lose all of her properties, so sheâs desperately trying to fight for your inheritance rights.â
âThings are going to get messy if she finds out that Grandpa has already written his will.â
Zacharyâs phone rang right as he was about to give Spencer a call, and he answered the phone immediately, âHello, Mr. Spencer.â
âIâve seen the news about Zara online, but Iâm keeping them hidden from Mr. Henry for now. After what heâs been through today, I donât want to agitate him any further. Thereâs no way heâd be able to take it,â Spencer said in a low voice.
âYeah, letâs not tell him for now. Make sure to keep a tight lid on his will, or that woman will really go nuts if she finds out!â Zachary reminded him sternly.
âI know. The only people who know about it are you, me, Charlotte, Cynthia, and Taylor. Since Taylor has been arrested, I donât think heâll be able to get the word out.â
âIâll send someone to make the arrangements at the police station. Keep a close eye on Grandpa for me.â
âI will, donât worry.â
Zachary then had Ben call up their contacts at the police station and have them watch over Taylor to prevent him from talking.
Having taken care of everything, Zachary glanced at the nearby Northridge villa and thought to himself.
Charlotte should be home by now, so she probably knows about this too⦠I wonder what her stance is regarding Danrique exposing Zara and dragging Nacht Group down with her⦠Well, even if she supports him, her actions would be perfectly justified. Our family owes her way too much, after all. When will this battle finally end?
