“It’s alright,” Zachary brushed off their concerns.
Swiftly, he shrugged off the discomfort and continued walking.
By then, he was already starting to recover. Albeit having a blurred vision, he was able to manage by relying on his keen judgment.
As he walked, his vision recovered gradually.
He peered at the beautiful sky. Once again, he was reminded of his deteriorating health…
“Mr. Nacht, the car is here,” Ben reminded softly.
“Jamie, you head back first. I have some matters to attend to.” Zachary ushered Jamie into the car and instructed Bruce, “Send Jamie back.”
“Yes.” Bruce entered the car.
“Daddy, when are you coming back?”
Jamie was worried as Robbie and Ellie were not there with him anymore. He was terrified at the thought of being home alone.
“I’ll be back at night.” Zachary gently touched his face. “Be a good boy. If you’re bored, Mr. Marion will train with you.”
“Alright,” Jamie nodded obediently.
Zachary gestured at Marino, who started the engine and drove away.
“Mr. Nacht, are you not feeling well?”
Ben was observing Zachary.
“Leave me,” Zachary instructed everyone to leave but Ben. He instructed softly, “Give Raina a call and arrange a full body checkup for me.”
“Understood.” Ben immediately informed Raina.
The two of them entered the car and headed towards Kindness Hospital.
Ben was extremely worried about Zachary’s condition. Long ago, he had already noticed that something was off about Zachary. Nonetheless, when asked to do a checkup, Zachary’s questioned Raina’s capabilities as a doctor.
He gave the example when Raina was oblivious that Charlotte was poisoned.
Hence, the matter was delayed until now.
However, the situation didn’t look well. The fact that Zachary ushered everyone away and took the initiative to undergo a medical checkup might indicate a serious problem.
In an instant, they arrived at Kindness Hospital.
Raina was waiting at the entrance. Upon their arrival, she raced towards them. “What happened?”
“Nothing. Just an ordinary checkup.” Ben was putting on a relaxed front. “Is everything ready?”
“Yes,” Raina anxiously replied, “I will personally handle the process. There will be two assistants helping me, but they are loyal and can keep a secret.”
“Great,” Zachary replied and stepped into the hospital.
Raina quickly arranged a plethora of tests for Zachary and it went on until late at night.
Some of the reports were out, some might need another extra day.
Raina went through the reports one by one with Zachary, “All of your tests results came out normal. Mr. Nacht, you’re very healthy and it appears that there is nothing to worry about.”
“What about my eyes?” Zachary asked.
“Your vision is impeccable.” Raina was holding the report, “Is your vision affected in any way? Or do you feel any sort of pain or discomfort?”
Zachary retrieved the report from Raina. Indeed, she was right. However, Zachary was still not convinced. I understand if Raina’s capabilities are limited, but the machines should be able to detect the problem.
“What about the CT scan results of my brain?”
Zachary quickly realized that the source of the problem might be in his brain. Perhaps there was some form of blockage on his nerves, which eventually interfered with his vision.
“That will need to wait until tomorrow,” Raina replied. “If you are in a hurry, I can summon more people to work overtime.”
“That is not necessary.” Zachary put down the report. “No one can know about this.”
“I understand.” Raina nodded.
“Let me know when the results are out,” Zachary instructed.
Then, he turned and left.
“Remember, keep this a secret.”
Ben reminded Raina again before catching up to Zachary.
Raina stared at their backs as they walked away. It’s a shame that Mr. Nacht is not around anymore. If something bad happens to Zachary, then the Nacht family is doomed…
