Seeing this, Zachary’s brows knitted tightly and his face was terribly gloomy…
He had long known that Sharon was arrogant and wilful and that she would use any means to achieve her goal but he had never expected her temperament to be so despicable and vicious that she would poison herself in order to frame Charlotte!
“Mr. Nacht, although this matter has been revealed, it must be handled carefully.” Ben reminded cautiously, “The news of Divine Corporation and Synder Group’s cooperation has been released as well as the news of your engagement with Ms. Blackwood…”
“The old man is really persistent.” Zachary sneered. “What about the news being released? If I refuse, can he tie me up to get engaged?”
“But it’s not good for you to challenge Mr. Nacht like this.” Ben said softly, “It’s not doing any good for Ms. Windt…”
“That’s why I fired her and let her go away, so I can deal with it.”
Zachary was spinning the phone in his palm while his eyes stared outside the window. What is that Stupid Woman doing now?
For her sake, he had challenged his grandpa and got slapped on his face. She did not even text him. Where is her conscience?
“Alright, then.” Ben stopped talking, knowing that Mr. Nacht could not be swayed.
“It’s strange,” Zachary remarked coldly, “How did a gentle person like Taylor raise such a daughter?”
“It is said that Ms. Blackwood was born illegitimately out of wedlock. She was raised outside the family until she was ten. She may have developed a vicious character because of her upbringing. By the way, Mr. Blackwood seems to have a legitimate daughter who is one year older than Ms. Blackwood and a mute… I think her name is Cynthia,” Ben said.
“I met her when she was a child and she looks quite neat but a little autistic.” Zachary remembered, “I’m curious. Why does the old man want me to marry a daughter of the Blackwood family? Is it because he admires Taylor?”
“I seem to have heard Mr. Spencer mention that when your father was young, he was close friends with Mr. Blackwood. Mr. Blackwood also saved his life. Later, your father met with an accident. It was Mr. Blackwood who took care of Old Mr. Nacht. Speaking of it, the Nacht family owed the Blackwood family a huge favor!”
“Am I supposed to return the favour?” Zachary sneered.
“You can’t say that.” Ben was very objective. “It’s mainly because Ms. Blackwood is the right candidate for you, and she knows how to please Mr. Nacht. Besides, she has concealed her true temperament too well the old man is deceived.”
“The old man makes misjudgments too…” Zachary cursed softly, “The older one gets, the more foolish one is!”
“You sound a bit rebellious when you say that.” Ben looked at him cautiously.
“Do you need to say such nonsense?” Zachary glared at him. “Has he gone to see those three little brats again today?”
“Yes, I heard that he went directly to the kindergarten.” Ben was a little worried. “Mr. Nacht likes these three children so much but hates Ms. Windt. If he knows that these three children belong to her, I don’t know how he will react. “
“I’m also very curious…” Zachary sneered, “Isn’t he pretentious? This incident should teach him a lesson, let him know that his judgement is flawed.”
Ben felt it was wise not to comment.
He kept his peace.
At the Apple Kindergarten, the three children had finished their classes. As they got ready to get up the school bus, a Rolls-Royce pulled over.
The door opened and Spencer helped Henry get down from it.
From afar, Mr. Henry waved to the three kids, “Children, I am here to see you!”
“Mr. Henry!” Ellie rushed over to the old man, almost knocking him over.
“Oh, my little sweethearts. Slow down.” Spencer was so scared that his heart almost jumped out, “Mr. Henry can’t take your running into him like this, he might fall.”
“What can happen?” Mr. Nacht glared at him, “Can a three-year-old injure me?”
“No, but…” Spencer lowered his head, not daring to say more.
