Chapter 995
“It's fine. You were just doing your job. This isn't your fault. What Danrique did was right. Zara should be punished
for her crimes. Since we can't find her after she went into hiding, this is the only way to flush her out,” Charlotte
said after slowly calming down and analyzing the situation rationally.
Lupine frowned. “But we've gotten Mr. Nacht caught up in the mess as well! Everyone is pointing their fingers at
Nacht Group right now, especially those who aren't in the business industry. They don't know that Zara has cut ties
with the Nacht family. The general public still regards her as a member of the Nacht family, so everything she does
will be associated with them as well. I bet Zara is overjoyed seeing the chain reaction that's taking place right now!
She knows Mr. Nacht will do everything to resolve the issue or the entire family would go down with her. In other
words, Mr. Nacht is the one most severely impacted by this!”

Of course, I know that! That's why I called Danrique earlier to try and stop him, but he shut me down with a lecture
before I could even get a word out! The fact that he's doing it to avenge me removes whatever justification I have
for my request. Henry is the one at fault, and while I may be willing to put up with it, that doesn't mean Danrique
would do the same!
“This will worsen the gap between you and Mr. Nacht. You must be feeling really upset, right?” Lupine asked softly
while giving her a sympathetic look.
Charlotte shot her a cold glare in response. “What has Ben told you?”
Lupine quickly lowered her head to avoid eye contact. “N-Nothing... We had near-death experiences together while
tracking Sharon down together, so it's perfectly normal for things to get a little weird between us...”
Charlotte saw right through her excuses and let out a wry chuckle. “Huh... I haven't even gotten my revenge, and
he's already stolen two of my closest subordinates from me?”
Lupine was quick to deny it. “That's not true, Ms. Lindberg! I'll definitely take your side if you get into conflict with
the Nacht family! I won't waver because of my personal feelings!”
“I know you won't. I have never doubted the loyalty of the people Danrique assigns to me!” Charlotte said with a
gentle smile.
Lupine patted herself on the chest in relief. “Oh, thank goodness... You scared me...”
“I am curious, though. What exactly has Ben told you?” Charlotte asked curiously.
“He said you and Mr. Zachary were in love with each other, but Mr. Henry refused to accept you because of your
identity as a Lindberg and the fact that your mother had inadvertently caused the death of Mr. Zachary's parents.
That's why Mr. Henry has strongly objected to your marriage,” Lupine said softly.
Charlotte nodded. “I remember that. If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Henry only found out about it on the day of the
wedding because Zara told him. Honestly, I don't really hate that old man all that much because I never saw him as

a family, to begin with. He's just an outsider to me, and I don't care what outsiders think of me, but Zachary is
different. He told me we were once deeply in love with each other, and that we have three children. Together, we
set foot in the church and exchanged wedding rings... We were each other's dearest, so why would he betray and
give up on me? I never understood that. If it were me, I would insist on staying with the person I love, regardless of
how Danrique objected. I would never choose to give in like a coward, let alone marry someone else. That's the
difference between Zachary and I!”
“Ben also told me that you were having a relapse from the poison at the time, so Mr. Nacht had temporarily given
in to Mr. Henry's demands so he could get you the antidote...”
Charlotte didn't want to hear any more of it. “That was just an excuse. All right, that's enough. We're going to see
Morgan at the hospital, so hurry up and get ready.”
“Understood!”
