Chapter 1554

Chapter 1554qCharlotte narrowed her eyes and stared at Chris coldly before checking the time again.
It was already 2:59 p.m. There was only a minute left until three o'clock.
The president's office had great soundproofing, but Charlotte felt like she could still hear footsteps
slowly approaching.
The results were almost out. They were almost here!
“Chris.” Charlotte stepped closer to him and lowered her voice. “If you tell the truth now and apologize
to your brother, maybe we can think about letting you go.”
“I—”
Chris couldn't even finish his sentence as he sweated profusely and fidgeted with his hands nervously.
Obviously, he was stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Navig@te back to th€ roots of thïš substance at n0v^lebook“I know Jesse was behind everything. From what I know of you, there's no way you would have been
able to come up with all of this on your own.”
Charlotte continued to advise him kindly, “Think about it. Why else would Jesse be helping you? He
obviously just wants to snatch away the Nacht family's money, right? The moment he has real control
over you, you'll be nothing more than a puppet to him. Either way, you're not going to get anything good
out of it.”
“I never wanted to get anything out of it.”
Chris finally spoke up. With a dark expression, he spat out, “I just hate him for killing my mother. She
was his family too.”“He didn't kill your mother. Your grandfather did,” Charlotte said coldly. “He was the one who fired the
gun, not Zachary. Besides, your mother did her own fair share of horrible things. It was an act of mercy
to kill her when he did.”
“Shut up!” Chris bellowed.
The bodyguards finally reacted and looked over in shock.
The two of them had been whispering prior to this, so the bodyguards hadn't had the chance to actually
hear anything. However, Chris' sudden shouting had just drawn all of their attention toward him.
Chris stared at Charlotte with gritted teeth, his eyes practically glowing with hatred. He looked as if he
wanted to wring her neck.
Zara may have done a lot of bad things, but to him, she was still a good mother.
Not only had she taken care of him and taught him everything he knew, but she also planned out his
entire life for him and was practically living just for him.
That was why he drew the line at anyone insulting his mother.
“That's still a fact even if I didn't mention it.” Charlotte continued mocking him, “How have the three
days of treatment been for you? It hurt, right? The pain I went through was a thousand, no, a million
times worse! Your mother kidnapped me so that she could take over the role as the Nacht Group's
CEO. She also threatened Zachary and poisoned me so that I would get sent away by Henry. Even
then, your mother still wasn't satisfied and told Sharon to go to T Nation to kill me. I got tortured by her,
and Mrs. Berry got killed because of me. All of this wasn't enough for her, though, was it? She eventried to kidnap my kids. Are you telling me that someone as toxic and evil as your mother didn't deserve
to die?”
“Shut up. Shut up! Shut the f*ck up!”
Chris couldn't toke it ony longer ond leoped up before reoching out to strongle Chorlotte. “Don't you
dore tolk obout her thot woy! Don't you f*cking dore put her nome in your mouth!”
“Mr. Nocht, pleose colm down.”
The bodyguords were obout to come over to pull him owoy when the office door opened. Spencer ond
Johonn both stood in surprise when they sow whot wos hoppening.
“W—”
“Zochory” wos currently kneeling on the sofo like o hungry wolf with his honds wringing Chorlotte's
neck, looking incredibly sinister.
Chorlotte wos holding onto his honds, screoming, “Chris! I know you pretended to be Zochory to get
revenge for your mother, but she died rightfully! She should hove been killed o long time ogo. I wish I
fired even more shots ot her.”
“You—”
“Zochory” wos bright red with onger ond wos obout to speok when his phone suddenly rong.
He instinctively looked ot the coller ID ond wolked off to the lounge to toke the coll.“Shut up. Shut up! Shut the f*ck up!”
Chris couldn't take it any longer and leaped up before reaching out to strangle Charlotte. “Don't you
dare talk about her that way! Don't you f*cking dare put her name in your mouth!”
“Mr. Nacht, please calm down.”
The bodyguards were about to come over to pull him away when the office door opened. Spencer and
Johann both stood in surprise when they saw what was happening.
“W—”
“Zachary” was currently kneeling on the sofa like a hungry wolf with his hands wringing Charlotte's
neck, looking incredibly sinister.
Charlotte was holding onto his hands, screaming, “Chris! I know you pretended to be Zachary to get
revenge for your mother, but she died rightfully! She should have been killed a long time ago. I wish I
fired even more shots at her.”
“You—”
“Zachary” was bright red with anger and was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang.
He instinctively looked at the caller ID and walked off to the lounge to take the call.
