Evidently, Zachary had picked whom he wanted.
The rest of the ladies were filled with disappointment. Some even slapped the water in frustration while others had darkened expressions and tears welling up in their eyes.
As for the men, all of them were overwhelmed by excitement.
“What a quick decision. Looks like the swimsuit party was really effective! Hahaha!”
“Of course! Only by doing so can we see their faces and figures clearly.”
“Mr. Nacht has a good eye. That girl is quite the catch.”
“That goes without saying.” Theo revealed, “Everyone, I’m sure none of you are aware that she is Ms. Nancy Gold, daughter of the richest man in Koandria, Mr. Jesse Gold.”
“Wow…” When everyone heard about Nancy’s identity, they envied Zachary further. “Mr. Nacht, you have a sharp eye indeed to have picked the best with a single glance.”
The fact was, Nancy had the most illustrious background among all the beauties there.
Furthermore, everyone in the business world knew how strict Jesse was. Hence, his daughter must have gone through the same treatment.
Ever since she was young, she was raised and trained in seclusion so that she would end up being extremely shrewd in business and would also possess many other talents.
Jesse had restricted her social circle so that she maintained her purity until Jesse could find her the right husband.
Evidently, he had planned for Nancy to attend the event that night.
When Zachary picked out the epitome of beauty from among the ladies, everyone couldn’t help but praise his eye.
“Time is of the essence. Mr. Nacht, Ms. Gold, I have prepared the presidential suite for you. Please go ahead and rest upstairs. Haha,” Theo teased.
When Zachary gave him the side-eye, he shut his mouth and didn’t dare utter another word.
The crowd didn’t dare to make any wisecracks too.
When Nancy’s embarrassing situation had been resolved, she gave Zachary a look of gratitude.
Zachary had shown her the respect she deserved and even offered his hand to help her up. “Can you walk by yourself?”
“Yes.” Just as she got to her feet, Nancy’s knees buckled, causing her to fall.
However, Zachary quickly picked her up and carried her away.
The group of men couldn’t resist clapping and cheering given how much they were awed by the romantic turn of events.
Filled with jealous envy, the ladies in the pool stared daggers at Nancy.
As for Charlotte who was standing in the corner, she watched Zachary’s silhouette with a stunned expression. In her heart, she felt a devastating blow crush it in pieces.
At that moment, she realized how heartbreaking it was to see with her own eyes the man she loved getting together with another girl.
“Mr. Nacht, since you are done with the selection, can we take our pick of the rest?” one of the businessmen asked.
“Suit yourself, “Zachary plainly replied.
Overjoyed, the men jumped into the pool and began to flirt with the ladies.
Furrowing her eyebrows with disdain, Charlotte climbed back onto the poolside and prepared to leave. However, one of the men stopped her. “Don’t go, pretty. Why don’t we get to know each other?”
“Move aside,” Charlotte snapped.
“Tsk tsk, what a feisty little cat. I like that attitude of yours. Haha.” The man laughed in delight. “Don’t worry, if you get together with me, I will provide my utmost support for your family business.”
Before he finished, Charlotte sidestepped him to leave.
“Hey!” the man grabbed her hand and scrutinized her from head to toe. “You have an alluring figure with glowing taut skin. Name your price then!”
When Charlotte tried to retract her hand, the man refused to let go. In a fit of rage, she kicked the man in the balls.
“Argh!” The man let out an agonizing scream before falling into the pool with a giant splash.
Alerted by the commotion, everyone turned to look. When someone deduced what happened, he burst into laughter, “Haha, Jared, seems like you’ve met your match today!”
