Chapter 880
Bruce didn't reply. He simply sighed internally. The public regarded Mr. Blackwood as an honorable and kind man,
but he is actually the most devious one. He would treat his own daughter as pawns just to benefit himself.
“That money is just a ruse,” added Sharon, who finally saw everything clearly, “The Blackwoods would fall
regardless because the family is trapped between three powerful entities, namely the Nacht family, the Lindberg
family, and Zara Nacht.”
“That is why siding with Mr. Nacht is the best option for you,” replied Bruce.
“You're right about that,” commented Sharon as a complex glow shone in her eyes. She shifted her gaze to Bruce
and requested, “There's something I'd like to say to Zachary in person.”
“Okay,” replied Bruce before he dialed Zachary's number. The line was established soon after.
“Hello.”
“Ms. Sharon has something to say to you, Mr. Nacht,” informed Bruce before he put the phone on speaker and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthanded it to Sharon.
Sharon spoke into the phone and was firm when she requested, “Zachary, I am willing to be a witness at the trial
and tell everyone that Zara is the one who ordered me to kill Charlotte. I can even provide you with all the evidence
you need. However, I have a condition, and I want you to give me your word that you will do as I ask.”
“Go on,” replied Zachary calmly.
“I want you to promise me that you will keep me safe if Charlotte ever comes to me to seek revenge,” announced
Sharon clearly.
Hearing those words surprised Bruce. He secretly sighed in admiration. Sharon is a vile woman, but she is truly
smart.
She saw through everything, even though she was only given the slightest hint. She also knows her situation well.
That is why she made the right choice. She is even aware of the fact that Zara is not the biggest threat there is.
Charlotte Lindberg is a lot more dangerous.
That is why she wants Mr. Nacht to make that promise.
Zachary, who was on the other end of the line, had become quiet.
He could've done everything early on and forced Sharon to hand the evidence over ages ago. He also knew that he
could get Sharon to be a witness. However, he hesitated to do all that because he knew that Sharon would make
that request.
If I agree to help her out, there will be yet another obstacle between Charlotte and me.
That was why Zachary didn't want to do that.
Unfortunately, his hands were tied at that moment. The Nacht family was facing both internal and external threats,
so he had to play that card.
Sharon, however, had calmed down, and she pointed out, “That is my only condition. If you can't keep me safe,
then there is no point in me being a witness. “Charlotte Lindberg will eventually kill me anyway, so why bother
suffering in jail before that happens?
“I've learned all about it. Charlotte is no longer the person she used to be. She is almost as cruel as Zara Nacht, and
she will not grant me a quick or merciful death. I may as well flee overseas under such circumstances. At least
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthen, I'd still have a chance of surviving.”
“Fine, I give you my word,” replied Zachary, “But I will only be able to protect you for one year. Once the matter
with Zara is settled, I will keep you safe for twelve months. After that, I will give you some money, and you better
run as far and as fast as you can. I will not be able to protect you if Charlotte finds you again.”
“Deal!”
Sharon was extremely excited. She knew that no one could protect her for the rest of her life. Hence, Zachary's
promise was legit.
Once the matter involving Zara was settled, the Nacht family and the Lindberg family would likely become so busy
that they wouldn't have the time to worry about Sharon. I will leave H City while under Zachary's protection and flee
to a place where no one would recognize me. There, I will start life anew...
“Stay safe!” replied Zachary before he hung up right away.
Bruce took Sharon to a secluded Villa and helped her settle down. After that, he warned, “The maids will take care
of you, and there will be bodyguards protecting the place. You will be safe so long as you stay put. I will come to
pick you up once the time is right.”
“Okay. I'm still injured, so please have Raina come take care of me,” requested Sharon as she examined the place.
It's not bad.
