In the following days, Zachary began to receive closed treatment formally.
After the medical team examined him, it was clear that there should be no outside interference during the treatment, otherwise all previous efforts would be lost.
Moreover, they could not guarantee that all toxins would be totally removed.
After all, in the previous incident, when they treated Charlotte, it was just a temporary measure to help her stay alive. In the end, they had to depend on Francesco…
The legendary Francesco did not have a fixed address and he was travelling constantly. It took Danrique a long time to find him. By then, Charlotte’s treatment was done, leaving behind some sequelae.
Francesco could not restart the healing process so he created for her a potion to be taken whenever the sickness relapsed to manage the pain…
Now, Zachary was in a similar situation. In order not to miss the best treatment time, he had to receive treatment first. No one could predict the future results, but at least he could stay alive.
In order to deter the attention of the public, Southridge was sealed off, leaving only some loyal subordinates and domestic servants, who were not allowed to enter or leave at will.
Two weeks passed by quickly. Zachary did not show himself.
The senior executives of Divine Corporation said that Zachary had gone to M Nation to handle the affairs of the headquarters and would be not expected to return to H City in the near future.
There were rumors and speculations that Zachary did not go to M Nation but rather had shut himself up because he was depressed and feeling hopeless since his only love was preparing to marry someone else.
Not long after, there were speculations about where Zachary had really gone to…
Divine Corporation and Nacht Group did not respond to those speculations and rumors.
No matter what the question was, their reply was that Mr. Nacht would return after two months.
Meanwhile, in Erihal, Charlotte heard the news from H City and she felt rather puzzled…
Even if Zachary really felt sad and hopeless over her marriage to Louis, he could not be depressed to such an extent, could he?
They were all very prominent figures with great power whose jobs affected society, so it was important for them not to be brought down by their personal lives.
Nonetheless, it was up to him to do as he wished and it was none of her business.
Thus, Charlotte consoled herself but still, she felt disturbed.
She asked Robbie if he had contacted Daddy. Robbie said that he was not able to get through Daddy’s phone in the past two weeks and Jamie said Daddy had gone to M Nation. He was at Mr. Spencer’s for the time being.
When Robbie questioned further, Jamie said he had to leave for school.
Robbie felt that it was strange. He could sense that Jamie was not telling him everything.
The more he asked, the more Jamie evaded his questions. Finally, Jamie stopped accepting his calls.
Robbie related these to Charlotte and he asked in a worried tone, “Mommy, has something bad happened to Daddy?”
“Not necessarily,” Charlotte comforted him, saying, “It is possible that he is really busy at the headquarters in M Nation…”
“No matter how busy, it is not necessary to cut off all communication.” Robbie was very anxious. “Is he so busy that he cannot even pick up the phone? Besides, I keep feeling Jamie is hiding something from me. It’s weird.”
“Mommy, I miss Daddy and Jamie.” Ellie’s tears rolled down her face when she thought that something might have happened to Daddy. “Let’s go back to see them, okay?”
“Ellie…” Charlotte was about to console her little girl when there was a loud knock on the door. “Ms. Lindberg, this is urgent.”
Charlotte went to open the door and asked in a low voice, “What’s the matter?”
Lupine bent near her ear and whispered a few words. Charlotte’s countenance changed and she instantly replied, “Get the car ready, I’ll change and come downstairs now.”
“Yes.” Lupine quickly went downstairs to arrange for the car.
Charlotte hugged Robbie and Ellie, speaking to them gently, “Robbie and Ellie, I’m going over to Uncle Dan’s place. You both be good. I’m coming home a little late.”
“Mommy, when will we go home?” Ellie looked at her Mommy questioningly.
“Ellie, after forty-five days, you’ll be totally cured. Then, Daddy will come to fetch you,” Charlotte spoke to her, holding her face, “I am sure your Daddy is fine. Don’t worry, dear!”
