Chapter 1748

Chapter 1748Not long after his departure, Bruce returned with news confirming Michael's attestation.
Navig@te back to th€ roots of thïš substance at n0v^lebookHaving almost been a pawn of Jesse's, Michael withdrew his involvement just in time when he
realized what he was about to step into.
Originally intending to end their partnership, Michael found himself dragged further into it by
Jesse, resulting in huge financial losses on his part.
I hope he takes this as a very expensive lesson not to be repeated again.
Michael also let his emotions dictate his downfall. Having borne Zachary and Charlotte some
resentment on behalf of Helena, he had allowed Jesse to manipulate him.
There is always the darkest time when a man must choose the more difficult but ultimately
correct decision.
Satisfied by the amount of proof gathered, Zachary did not deem it worthwhile to pursue
Michael's involvement anymore. Contrary to what he had offered out of politeness, he was not
going to offer the latter financial aid.
Everybody should bear the cost of their mistakes. The cost of Michael's mistake happens to be thirty-
billion in damages.
As his afternoon was freed up, Zachary took the opportunity to conduct a video call with Charlotte.
At that moment over at Xendale, Erihal, Charlotte was perusing some documents in the office with a
thick leopard-print coat around her shoulders.
Around her sat a group of executives of Lindberg Corporation, all of whom watched her every move
with apprehension.Zachary smiled with satisfaction. The amount of money she brought back with her has managed to
secure respect from her family's employees!
“I have some matters to attend to, Hubby,” she said rather stiffly in the presence of her subordinates.
“I'll call you when I get back tonight!”
“Don't let me bother you, dear.”
After hanging up, Zachary read the report Ben had sent him via text.
Ms. Lindberg spent her first day in Xendale conducting a meeting with the executives of Lindberg
Corporation. Mr. Lindberg and his staff were trying to come up with a solution to the financial constraint
when Ms. Lindberg promptly announced that she had arrived with enough equity to tide the company
over. Every eye was wide with shock when they saw the number. Even Mr. Lindberg was taken aback.
Having not expected Ms. Lindberg to come prepared with that amount on hand, he pulled her aside to
ask her where it came from. Ms. Lindberg told him that it came from you and showed him the approval
letter with your signature. Mr. Lindberg appeared calm but he was visibly still reeling from the shock. All
in all, Ms. Lindberg established her position within the company by the end of that day. Nobody else
dared question her again after that. Mr. Lindberg had been attending to personal matters over the past
two days and handed the company over to Ms. Lindberg. She rose to the occasion admirably...
The rest were words of flattery that sounded just plausible enough.
Zachary smiled as his eyes twinkled with pride. What a capable wife I have!
All that was left to do was to have the wedding.
At that moment in H City, Erihal, Charlotte was busy running a meeting.As she was delegating some essential tasks to the executives, Lupine rushed in to whisper out
of Danrique's earshot. “Ms. Felch escaped again!”
“What?” Charlotte frowned. “What happened?”
“I'm not sure,” Lupine muttered worriedly, “but I heard this time she ran with the child. Mr.
Lindberg is livid. He has sent someone to go after her.”
“I wonder when they will be able to put their differences aside and reconcile,” Charlotte sighed.
“Forget it, it's out of our hands. Let's carry on with the meeting. This is Danrique's problem, we
shouldn't get involved.”
The meeting continued for several more minutes before a deafening screech and a momentary
eclipse announced the arrival of an entire convocation of eagles.
The executives were visibly frightened. “It's her again! She's back!” they cried.
