Ch. 631..640

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 631

“Grandpa, what about me?” Zachary pretended to be upset.

“Can’t you do it yourself?” Henry stared at him while serving him a piece of chicken butt. “Take this!”

“That’s a chicken butt. Hahaha…”

The children laughed their socks off.

The festive atmosphere and lively chatter lifted everybody’s mood.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Berry was about to serve fish when she saw the happy scene underneath the tree. Her eyes couldn’t help but redden. “Mr. Windt, are you seeing this? Miss has finally found happiness, and she will be married tomorrow.”

“Mrs. Berry, why are you crying on a happy occasion such as this?” Mrs. Rawlston comforted her. “You should smile more. Look how happy Ms. Windt is.”

“That’s right. It warms my heart when I see how happy she is.” Mrs. Berry wiped away her tears and smiled. “After going through so much, they are finally reunited.”

“You’re right. All’s well that ends well. It is wonderful indeed!”

Mrs. Rawlston brought out the fruit platter with a wide smile on her face.

Regaining her composure, Mrs. Berry continued serving the dishes.

As the moon illuminated Charlotte’s face, it seemed to be bathing her in silvery light. Her smile was exceptionally gentle and filled with happiness.

Zachary would make sure her plate was full and dote on her affectionately.

Smiling at him, she leaned closer to kiss him on his forehead.

Love was in the air as both of them expressed their affection for each other.

If everything ended at that moment, it would just be like a fairytale ending where the prince and princess lived happily ever after.

Unfortunately, life wasn’t a fairytale.

After dinner, the kids wanted to go to the playground.

Zachary pushed Henry along and went with them.

Just when Charlotte was about to follow, she felt a sharp pain at the back of her head. By reflex, she held onto the table for support. The very next second, blood was dripping onto the white napkin.

She covered her nose with the napkin at once and frantically ran into the house.

“Ms. Windt, are you alright?” A maid approached her to ask.

“I’m fine. Perhaps my stomach isn’t feeling well. I’ll go in and take a look.”

Mrs. Berry stopped the maid as she ran after Charlotte.

“Daddy, why isn’t mommy coming along?” Robbie turned around and saw Charlotte’s silhouette. “Why is she returning to the house?”

“Mommy has some orders for me. You guys should just go ahead,” Mrs. Berry turned around and instructed them.

“Okay!” Robbie didn’t think too much of it.

“Perhaps she is preparing the dowry,” Zachary commented in amusement. “I wonder how much your mommy has squirreled away in her secret account.”

“Mommy doesn’t have any money. She’s broke.” Jamie frantically tugged at Zachary’s hand and requested, “Daddy, you should forgo mommy’s dowry.”

“That’s right. She has spent all her money on us.” Even Ellie was appealing to Zachary with a pout, “Daddy, you’re not allowed to take advantage of mommy.”

“Hahaha…” Zachary laughed heartily.

“Daddy, I have received the profits from the software I invented. Why don’t you take it as mommy’s dowry?”

Robbie began planning on behalf of Charlotte in earnest as he checked his account. “Now, there’s thirty-seven million. You can take it all as mommy’s dowry.”

“Wow, that much?” Henry was extremely surprised. “Robbie, you really are a genius.”

“Exactly. At just three and a half years old, you have already made thirty-seven million!” Ben couldn’t help but exclaim. “When I was your age, all I did was drink milk.”

“Me too,” Bruce quipped.

“Pfft…” Zachary laughed again. As he was recently in a good mood, he gradually became more jovial. It was likely due to the power of love.

“Daddy, the bank card is in my room. I’ll go get it for you now.”

Robbie turned around and prepared to head back.

Henry quickly stopped him. “Foolish child, your daddy is just pulling your legs. The three of you are the best dowry your mommy can ever give.”

“That’s right. The three of you are priceless treasures.” Zachary patted Robbie on his head. “Keep your money. When you want to start your own business in the future, you can use it as seed capital.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Robbie nodded repeatedly.

“Are you really going to start your own business at such a young age?” Ben was overwhelmed with envy.

“Alright, go and play now.” Zachary brought them to play soccer.

As Henry watched his grandchildren play happily by the side, he was in a jovial mood and felt that bliss was defined by moments like that.

Meanwhile, just when Charlotte rushed into the bathroom, she collapsed onto the ground. Blood was flowing non-stop from her nose.

The pain in the back of her head reverberated through her body. It felt as if there was a hammer banging on her head, trying to split it open.

Grasping her head with both her hands, she rolled on the floor in excruciating pain. She didn’t dare make a sound while biting down on her lip forcefully.

“Mr. Zachary needs some refreshments over at their end. Why don’t you bring some fruits and desserts over to them.”

“Alright, Mrs. Berry. We will do so at once.”

After sending away the maids in the living hall, she hurried to the bathroom and knocked on the door. “Miss, there’s no one else outside. Can I come in now?”

When she didn’t get a response, Mrs. Berry tried to turn the knob. The moment the door swung open, she was shocked by the scene that greeted her.

“Miss!” Mrs. Berry hurried to help Charlotte up and asked anxiously, “What happened? Aren’t you supposed to have recovered? Why is there a relapse? How can this happen?”

“S-Shut the door!” Charlotte moaned in pain.

Mrs. Berry quickly closed the door and wiped Charlotte’s face with a wet towel.

When she saw Charlotte grimacing in pain, Mrs. Berry trembled in fear. She sobbed, “Miss, let’s go to the hospital. I’ll take you there.”

Just as she spoke, she tried to help Charlotte up.

“No, we can’t…” Charlotte desperately supported herself against the bathroom vanity. She uttered weakly, “I’ll be getting married tomorrow and have waited for it for a long time. I can’t ruin it now…”

“But, but you…”

“I’ll be fine in a while. It will be over quickly.” Charlotte closed her eyes, slowly losing consciousness. In her daze, she murmured, “They must not know…”

“Miss, Miss…”

Crying, Mrs. Berry wiped the blood off Charlotte’s face. When she opened the door to check, she made sure there was no one around before carefully carrying Charlotte back to her own room.

Inside, she locked the door and brought in a basin of hot water. Then, she wiped Charlotte’s body with it as tears streamed down her cheeks.

She was terrified of the prospect that Charlotte wouldn’t wake up or that the pain would stay with her for life.

“Oh God, why must you do this to her? Why?” Mrs. Berry cried as she questioned the divine. “She is such a kind and gentle person. Why must you punish her this way? What has she done wrong to deserve such treatment?”

“Mr. Windt, wherever you are, you have to watch over Miss!”

“Mr. Windt, what am I supposed to do?”

Mrs. Berry’s cried her eyes out.

When Charlotte finally awoke, she mumbled weakly, “Mrs. Berry, don’t cry. Don’t be afraid. Once the wedding is over tomorrow, I’ll go and see the doctor.”

“Alright, alright. I’ll go with you.” Mrs. Berry nodded repeatedly. “Miss, do you feel better now?”

“Much better…” Charlotte supported her head with her hand. “This time, the duration of the attack is shorter. It is probably a sign that it isn’t as serious as it used to be.”

Just as she spoke, she let out an awkward smile. However, she hid the truth from Mrs. Berry. Despite the shorter attack, it had become more intense than it used to be.

She felt as if death was knocking on her door.

At that moment, she thought she could see her father waving at her from Heaven.

“Miss, have some water.” Mrs. Berry fed Charlotte some. “Do you want to take some painkillers?”

“No.” Charlotte shook her head weakly. “Mrs. Berry, help me open that box. I want to hand over some stuff to you.”

“Sure!” Mrs. Berry quickly brought out Charlotte’s luggage back and opened it. Inside, there was a small box which she took out and handed over to Charlotte. “Is this it?”

“Mmm-hmm.” Charlotte nodded. Unlocking the box with a password, she took out a bank card and handed it to Mrs. Berry.

And then, she instructed in a solemn tone, “This is what Dad had left me. Inside, there are still a hundred and ten million. If anything happens to me, you can use the money to protect yourself and the children.”

“Miss, what are you talking about?” Mrs. Berry was worked up as tears welled in her eyes. “Nothing will happen to you. You will be fine…”

“Listen to me…” Charlotte grabbed onto Mrs. Berry’s hands and uttered weakly, “I’m saying, just in case. Just in case I’m not around, you have to stay with the Nachts and help me watch over the children.”

She continued, “Keep this money for your own security. If anything happens to you or the children, you can draw upon it to take care of yourselves. Mr. Nacht is right. Marrying into a prominent family is like stepping into the unknown. It doesn’t help that the Nacht family is a complicated one.”

She added, “Despite how protective Zachary is over the children, there might be times where he might not be there for them. Hence, with this by your side, their future will be more secured…”

“Miss, you will be fine.” Mrs. Berry trembled as she cried, “You’re still so young, and your life has just begun…”

“You’re right, I’m likely to be alright.” Charlotte squeezed out an awkward smile. “If I’m fine, I will soon be Mrs. Nacht. I will have so much money that this will be of no use for me. Hence, it’s better to leave the card with you, just in case.”

“I understand. I’ll keep it in a safe place.” Mrs. Berry received the card and carefully kept it.

“Also, there’s this…” Charlotte handed a letter to Mrs. Berry. “This is the will dad left me. Please hold on to it for safekeeping. Inside, there is a contact number. In the event you encounter any trouble, you can call that number for help. I heard the person is someone powerful and will be able to solve any problem you encounter…”

“Is this person your mom’s relative?” Mrs. Berry asked.

Charlotte was stunned as she really didn’t know who it was. But now that Mrs. Berry had mentioned it, something clicked in her mind. For this person to help me unconditionally at a moment’s notice, who else can it be but a relative?

However, if it were mom’s relative, why did dad instruct not to call except for desperate circumstances? Because once I make the call, my life will be drastically changed forever.

“Miss, don’t spend too much time thinking about this. After the wedding tomorrow, we should inform Mr. Zachary and let him take you to see the doctor. Perhaps, Dr. Felch is already awake. Even if he isn’t, there will still be other specialists…”

Mrs. Berry felt extremely anxious as she gripped Charlotte’s hand tightly.

“You’re right. Tomorrow, we will tell Zachary and see the doctor the day after.” Charlotte didn’t want her to worry. “You should keep the items in a safe place. Also, there’s this…”

She took out a black key. “The items that dad left behind are still at the cemetery. When you’re free, please help me retrieve them. They should mostly be items related to my mom.”

“Alright, I’ll keep this safe then.”

After receiving the items, she put them back into the box. After that, she carefully locked it and kept it in her wardrobe.

“Miss, you can put your mind at ease now as I’ve kept them in a safe place,” Mrs. Berry reassured. “Let me get you a hot towel to wipe your face.”

Just when Mrs. Berry prepared to head to the bathroom, there was a knock on the door. Mrs. Rawlston called out, “Mrs. Berry, is Ms. Windt in your room? Mr. Nacht is going home, hence Mr. Zachary wants her to see him off.”

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 634

Mrs. Berry panicked as she didn’t know what to do.

However, Charlotte replied at once, “I’m here. I’ll be over right away.”

“Alright, Ms. Windt. The wind is strong outside, so remember to grab your jacket,” Mrs. Rawlston reminded warmly.

“Mmm-hmm. Thank you.”

Charlotte tried to support herself to sit up. Although she looked pale and was still sweating, her nose had stopped bleeding.

“Miss, why don’t you stay here instead.” Mrs. Berry helped her nervously. “You really don’t look good.”

“I’m fine. It no longer hurts.” Charlotte collected herself. “Go to my room and get me a change of clothes. There’s blood all over me now.”

“Alright. I’ll get them right away.” Mrs. Berry quickly headed upstairs to get them.

While Mrs. Berry was out, Charlotte took a bath in Mrs. Berry’s room and washed the bloodstains off her body.

When Mrs. Berry returned, she brought with her a casual full-length dress and a cardigan.

After a change of clothes, Charlotte perked herself up before heading out.

“Mommy…”

Zachary and the children were sending Henry off.

When they saw Charlotte, the children rushed over and held her hand. “Where did you go? Why didn’t you play with us?”

“I was discussing something with Mrs. Berry.” Charlotte smiled. “Did you have a good time?”

“Yes, we did!” The children broke into noisy chatter as they described what they were playing.

However, Charlotte’s head began to hurt again but she tried her best to endure the pain.

“Alright, stop disturbing mommy.” When Zachary noticed that Charlotte was out of sorts, he diverted the children away. “Great-grandpa is leaving. Go say goodbye to him.”

“Okay.” The children rushed toward Henry to bid him farewell.

“Great-grandpa, are you coming tomorrow?”

“You silly kids. Tomorrow is your daddy and mommy’s wedding. Of course, I’m coming.”

“What I meant was, will you be having dinner with us after the wedding?”

“Hahaha, I’ll see you at the church tomorrow. Good night, kids!”

Henry waved at them with a smile.

“Good night, great-grandpa,” the children replied obediently.

“Have a safe journey back, grandpa.” Charlotte wanted to walk ahead to send Henry off but her legs wobbled and almost fell onto the ground. Zachary grabbed her in the nick of time and turned toward Henry. “Rest early tonight!”

“I know. Go back in now.” Henry nagged Charlotte, “Don’t worry too much and just enjoy being a bride.”

He assumed Charlotte kept her distance because she was having butterflies in her stomach.

“Thanks, grandpa!” Charlotte was touched. Despite all that had happened, Henry accepted her with open arms. It was a form of bliss that didn’t come easily. Hence, she had to treasure it as much as she could.

“Kids, I’ll see you tomorrow!”

“See you tomorrow, great-grandpa!”

Henry waved goodbye to the kids.

When Zachary instructed the maid to usher the children to their rooms, they refused to go as they wanted to hug Charlotte and have her coax them. However, Zachary put his foot down. “Mommy is tired. You can hug her tomorrow. But, for now, go back to your room to rest.”

“Okay!” Despite her disappointment, Ellie left obediently with the maid.

“Mommy, you don’t look too good. Are you unwell?”

Robbie noticed that Charlotte looked sickly.

“I’m just tired…” Charlotte had to muster all her strength just to speak. “Quick, go to bed now.”

“Alright.” Robbie left with the maid. Still worried, he kept turning back to check on the way to his room.

As for Jamie, he didn’t think too much about it as he dashed forward. “Move aside, my tummy is aching and I need to use the toilet. I’ve had one too many ice creams today.”

His actions caused the maids to burst into laughter.

Even Charlotte couldn’t help but giggle. However, she was suddenly struck by another dizzy spell, causing her to fall.

Luckily, Zachary managed to catch her in time. He anxiously asked, “What’s wrong? Is the poison acting up again?”

“No…”

“Why do you deny it still?” Zachary swept Charlotte off her feet and headed outside. “Prepare the car. We are going to the hospital!”

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 635

“No…” Charlotte struggled as she refused to go. “We’re going to get married tomorrow. How can I still go to the hospital…”

“Shut up!” Zachary snapped as he carried her into the car.

“Mr. Zachary, shall I come along?” Mrs. Berry was worried.

“Get in.”

As the car started moving, Ben gave Raina a call to get ready.

When Raina heard that Charlotte had a relapse, she quickly called Hayley and Sam at once.

The moment Zachary arrived at the hospital with Charlotte and Mrs. Berry, Raina was already waiting. She gave Charlotte the exact treatment used previously, which included a herbal bath and acupuncture.

However, when there wasn’t any tainted blood being expelled this time, Hayley furrowed her eyebrows and didn’t say a word.

Raina then dragged Hayley outside and asked anxiously, “Hayley, did Dr. Felch tell you about alternative ways of treating her? Is there any other way?”

“Dr. Langhan, you have asked me the same question many times. There really isn’t any,” Hayley replied in disappointment. “At that time, Dr. Felch was still researching new techniques. He met with the accident before he could produce any results.”

Having heard those words, Raina fell silent. Other than waiting for Dr. Felch to recover, there didn’t seem to be any other options.

“When will Dr. Felch wake up?” Sam inquired anxiously. “If he manages to do so, Ms. Windt can then be saved.”

“I, too, look forward to the day he wakes up. But as of now, sigh…”

Raina sighed and didn’t what to say.

“Miss, are you feeling any better?”

Mrs. Berry was extremely distraught as she looked at Charlotte’s pale face.

With hardly any strength, Charlotte laid groggily in the bathtub.

“Don’t worry, you will be fine in no time.” Zachary caressed Charlotte’s face as he comforted her in a gentle tone. “Try and get some sleep. You will feel much better after that.”

“Mmm-hmm,” Charlotte grunted in acknowledgment as she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

“Mr. Nacht…”

Raina entered, wanting to update Zachary on Charlotte’s condition. However, she didn’t know where to start.

“I’ll be taking her home.”

Zachary didn’t ask as he was cognizant of the situation Charlotte was in.

“Right away.” Raina and Hayley bathed Charlotte and got her dressed.

Carrying her out, Zachary headed back home with her. Inside the car, he held her tightly in his embrace, worried that she would disappear the moment he let go.

Mrs. Berry couldn’t help but shed a tear at the tragic sight in front of her.

Back at home, Zachary carried Charlotte back to their room and placed her on the bed. At that moment, she suddenly awoke and mumbled, “Don’t worry. I’ll be better after getting some sleep.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Zachary kissed her on her forehead and lay down beside her.

Underneath the dim light, he stared at her beautiful face. His heart was in turmoil and filled with all sorts of emotions.

He hated himself for failing to protect her and not realizing the problem earlier. He also regretted not treasuring the beautiful times that they shared…

After everything that had happened, he put her through a lot. Even then, she was still being tormented by pain.

In his heart, he swore that he would find the antidote.

Throughout the night, Zachary watched over Charlotte. It wasn’t until dawn that he finally fell asleep.

Not long after he did, he was suddenly awoken by a sound. When he realized Charlotte wasn’t beside him, he suddenly panicked and jumped out of bed to look for her.

When he heard the sound of flowing water in the bathroom, he dashed in like an arrow.

“Good morning!” Charlotte was bathing and washing her hair. She looked vibrant and energetic. It was as if she had become a totally different person from yesterday.

“Do you feel better now?” Zachary stared at her in shock.

“I’m fine.” Charlotte let out a delightful smile as she wiped the water off her face. “Today, I shall be the most beautiful bride ever!”

“You are already gorgeous,” Zachary smirked as he looked at her longingly. “Take your time. I’ll use the other bathroom.”

“Mmm-hmm.”

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 636

Zachary was well aware of how the poison reacted. When the attacks came, Charlotte would be in excruciating pain. But after that, she would be no different than an ordinary person.

However, once the poison seeps into the bone marrow, the frequency of the attacks would increase. When it is fully absorbed into the blood, Charlotte would then lose her life.

At that point, there was no point in relying on Dr. Felch. Even if he woke up, he still needed time to recover before he could start treating Charlotte.

That would take at least one to two months. Charlotte couldn’t afford to wait that long.

Hence, the only choice was to find Zara.

Perhaps, she might have the antidote.

Holding that thought, Zachary gave Chris a call.

During that period, Zara seemed to have disappeared and was just uncontactable. Nevertheless, Zachary knew Chris must have some way of getting in touch with her.

Soon, the call connected and a guilty voice was heard over the line. “Zachary…”

“Tell your Mom to state her demands and hand over the antidote!”

“What? What happened?” Chris was stunned.

“Just pass the message.”

The moment he finished, Zachary ended the call.

He knew that if anyone in the world could find Zara, it would be Chris. As long as he had passed the message along, Zara would naturally get in touch with him.

“Zachary, are you ready?” Charlotte yelled from outside. “The makeup artist is here. So, I’ll head over first.”

When Zachary came out of the bathroom and saw that Charlotte was in high spirits, he smiled in satisfaction. “Go on. Let them help you cleanse your skin before applying makeup.”

“Mmm-hmm.” Charlotte came closer and gave him a peck. “I’m really happy today.”

“Me too.” Zachary gave her a hug. “I’ll need to attend to something else first. You go on ahead with your makeup, alright?”

“Okay.” Charlotte nodded repeatedly before reminding, “By the way, about my relatives and friends…”

“I’ve sent Ben along with Mrs. Berry to receive them. They definitely won’t be late.” Zachary pinched her cheeks. “So, don’t worry.”

“I know.” Charlotte nodded with a smile.

At that moment, the children’s excited screams could be heard outside. “Daddy, mommy, get up quick! There are a lot of people coming. We need to get ready too.”

“Haha…” Charlotte laughed.

Zachary opened the door and was greeted by the three children standing there in their pajamas. Ellie was still hugging her alpaca plushie, Jamie had his toy gun in hand, while Robbie held onto his tablet.

All of them had serious expressions, worrying on behalf of the adults.

“Get up! Get up!” Fifi flapped her wings and circled noisily around the chandelier.

“She’s so annoying!” Despite complaining, Zachary’s expression was bursting with joy.

“Why aren’t you getting changed?” Charlotte knelt and asked the kids.

“The makeup artist said that she wanted us to take a children’s spa, cut our hair, and cleanse our skin before we start styling. That’s why we’re still in our pajamas.”

Robbie was all smiles as he explained.

For someone that was mature beyond his years, he was filled with anticipation and curiosity over the day’s event.

“That’s right! I still need to get my hair done.” Ellie tousled her long and curly hair while imagining how she would look after the makeover was done. “Today, I want to be the prettiest looking princess!”

“Hehe, you have always been the most beautiful!” Charlotte hugged her. “Alright now, off you go.”

“Don’t bother mommy today,” Zachary reminded. “Go and play by yourselves, alright?”

“Alright.” The children went off happily as the maids led them to see the stylist.

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 637

“Ms. Windt, can we start now?”

Charlotte’s stylist was waiting for her by the corridor.

“Sure.” Charlotte prepared to head for the makeup room.

“Miss, Miss…” At that moment, Mrs. Berry cried out from downstairs. “Olivia is here!”

“Olivia?” Charlotte turned around and saw Olivia standing meekly by the stairs.

“Charlotte!” Olivia ran up excitedly. “Congratulations!”

“Thank you!” Charlotte grabbed onto her and scrutinized her from head to toe. “Have your wounds all healed?”

“Yes, they have.” Olivia nodded with a smile. “Thank you!”

“No thanks are needed. We’re family, after all, so don’t be a stranger,” Charlotte replied, holding her hand.

“Charlotte, I’ll need to entertain Mr. Windt’s old friends. So, I’ll leave Olivia here with you.” Mrs. Berry looked to be in a hurry. “I have to go now. Call me if you need anything.”

“Alright, go on ahead.” Charlotte nodded as she watched Mrs. Berry leave.

The house was bustling with activity as everyone was preparing for the wedding. The festive atmosphere naturally lifted everyone’s spirits.

Everyone was busy with their own preparations except for Zachary, who was waiting for a call in the study.

“Mr. Nacht, everything is ready. Mr. Henry has gone to the church ahead of time to receive friends and relatives…”

After he arrived in a hurry to report, Bruce saw Zachary staring blankly at his phone. He carefully asked, “Are you alright?”

Zachary was briefly silent before answering, “Is there any news from Zara?”

“No.” Bruce shook his head and probed, “Has Ms. Windt…”

Bruce didn’t dare finish the sentence but he got his answer by reading Zachary’s expression.

“Don’t worry. I’ve spoken to Raina in the morning. She said that Dr. Felch’s condition is improving. He should be awake very soon,” Bruce reassured softly.

“It seems she won’t show herself unless I force her to.” Spinning his phone around, Zachary looked up with an icy gaze. “Spread the word. We will attack Cloud Group with everything we have.”

“Please reconsider, Mr. Nacht,” Bruce frantically remonstrated. “You have a ceasefire agreement with Ms. Nacht to not interfere with each other’s business. If you attack her, you will be in breach of that agreement.”

“She was the one that started it.” The thought of what Zara had done caused his blood to boil. “Is she any less guilty of breaching the agreement?”

“Right away.” Not daring to push the matter, Bruce could only advise, “However, it’s your wedding day today. I’m sure there’s no need to rush. We still have time to think of a different plan once the wedding is over.”

“It won’t affect the wedding.” Zachary checked the time on his watch. “By the time she sees the consequences, the timing would be about right.”

“But…”

“Just do it!”

“Yes, Mr. Nacht!”

Bruce had no choice but to cascade Zachary’s orders as he didn’t dare disobey.

Divine Corporation was a high-tech company that employed an elite group of hackers. In just one hour, they could break through all of Cloud Group’s systems.

The moment Cloud Group’s systems were breached, they would experience massive losses every second.

Prior to this, Zachary had restrained himself as he assumed Dr. Felch’s apprentices could heal Charlotte. But seeing as Charlotte’s poison was acting up again, Dr. Felch was still in a coma, and Zara didn’t respond despite having sent a message through Chris…

He was left with no choice.

Desperate times call for desperate measures. I must rat that woman out!

Right after his orders were cascaded down the line, he received an immediate response.

Zachary had changed into his suit and was about to check on Charlotte and the children when Henry called. “Are you behind the attacks on Cloud Group?”

“I didn’t expect you to call ahead of her.”

Zachary was disappointed when he realized it was Henry instead of Zara.

“What’s wrong with you? Why are you doing this on such a happy occasion?” Henry was outraged. “Are you looking for trouble just because everything is going great?”

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 638

“Did she tell you about it?” Zachary was calm. “You should ask her what she did.”

With that, he ended the call and hurried toward the children’s makeup room.

“Daddy!” When Jamie saw Zachary entered, he hurried over and struck a handsome pose. “How do I look?”

“Unbelievably dashing!” Zachary stroke his head.

“Jamie, you’re really dumb.” Robbie was in his chair, allowing the stylist to style his hair. “Didn’t we agree not to say anything? So that daddy has to guess.”

“Oh, I forgot.” Jamie slapped his forehead gently. “I revealed my identity the moment I spoke.”

“Haha, that’s right.” Zachary cracked up. “Although both of you look the same, your tone and mannerisms are entirely different.”

Robbie resembled adult Zachary by acting aloof and rational, while Jamie resembled him before he was six. At that time, his character was still vibrant and filled with innocence.

“Next time, I’ll pretend to act like Robbie so that you won’t be able to tell.” Jamie frowned and pretended to put on a serious expression. “Daddy, I have just thought of a new idea for an app. It will help children that are lost find their way home…”

“Hahaha, your impersonation is really accurate!” Zachary pinched Jamie’s cheeks.

“It’s not like me at all! I never look that serious.” Robbie was upset as he slid down the chair and hurried over. “This is how I speak…”

The next moment, he furrowed his eyebrows a little and repeated what Jamie had just said.

“Robbie, since you say my impersonation isn’t accurate, why don’t you impersonate me instead?” Jamie performed a short martial arts routine.

“Erm…” Stunned, Robbie replied with a frown, “Forget it. I give up. There’s no way I can do that!”

“Hahaha, it means that I’m better than you.” Jamie laughed smugly.

“Jamie, you…” Robbie’s cheeks reddened as he fumed.

“Alright now, both of you are the best.” Zachary calmed the situation down and asked, “Where’s Ellie?”

“Daddy, I’m here…” Ellie’s squeaky voice rang out from behind him.

Turning around, he saw her in a princess-style dress with a diamond tiara on her head. With her naturally curly hair all bunned up, she looked like a mini version of Charlotte and was so beautiful that she took everyone’s breath away.

“Wow! Ellie, you’re gorgeous!” Robbie and Jamie gasped in excitement.

“That’s right. You look really stunning!” the other stylists couldn’t help but exclaim in awe.

“Daddy, am I pretty?” Ellie lifted her skirt and made a little twirl on stage.

“Of course!” Zachary extended his hand and led her down the stage. “My Ellie is the prettiest girl there is!”

“I want a hug, Daddy.” Ellie stretched out her arms.

Zachary picked her up and lifted her into the air.

“Wow! It’s really high up here. Let’s go higher!”

Ellie cried out in joy as she had her arms outstretched, just like a delightful little angel.

Zachary flung her into the air and caught her steadily on the way down.

Ellie cackled in delight.

Meanwhile, the stylists around them grew anxious as they were worried she might fall. After all, it looked dangerous to them.

“Daddy, I want it too! I want it too!”

Jamie raised both his arms, gesturing excitedly that he wanted to be thrown into the air.

“Alright, it’s your turn now.”

After putting Ellie down, Zachary picked Jamie up and flung him into the air. It was so high that he almost hit the ceiling.

“Ah! It’s so high! Daddy, you’re the best!” Jamie shrieked with his arms stretched to the sides, just like a little Superman.

“Daddy, me too!”

When Robbie saw how much fun his siblings were having, he couldn’t help but want a piece of it.

“Sure!” Zachary entertained all their requests as he played excitedly with the children.

Meanwhile, Bruce was holding the phone at the door, not daring to interrupt Zachary. He had no choice but to step back and reply to Henry softly, “Mr. Nacht, Zachary is…”

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 639

“Forget it, just get him to call me back later.”

When Henry heard the children’s delightful laughs, he couldn’t bring himself to interrupt the beautiful moment.

“Certainly.” Bruce waited by the door holding the phone. When he saw the heartwarming scene in front of him, he hoped that the wedding would go on smoothly and that they could all live happily as a family.

“Alright, enough playing. I need to check on Mommy.” Zachary put the children down and patted them on their heads. “Be good!”

“Mmm-hmm!” The child obediently scurried off to play by themselves.

When Zachary arrived at Charlotte’s makeup room, he was in awe of what he saw the moment he opened the door.

Charlotte was in a tailor-made wedding gown with an off-shoulder design. It accentuated the beautiful lines of her neck and shoulders perfectly. Her delicate neck combined with her alluring cleavage made her look like a flower bud that was about to blossom.

From her slender waist to her curvaceous hips, the long dress train flowed toward the ground, making her look like an angel.

As Zachary was mesmerized by Charlotte’s silhouette, he realized every line and angle on hers was a gorgeous sight to behold.

“Mr. Nacht is here!”

“Mr. Nacht!”

The stylists and makeup artists all bowed to greet Zachary.

Turning around, Charlotte smiled at him and asked, “Do I look pretty?”

“You certainly do.” Zachary gradually approached her. He felt as if he had experienced this scene in his dreams before and it was then happening in real life.

“I was discussing with them about this set of jewelry. I feel it’s too loud for the occasion.” Charlotte pointed at the jewelry on the table. “What do you… ah…”

Before she could finish, Zachary pulled her in by the waist.

Gasping in surprise, she tried to push him away by reflex. She whispered, “What are you doing? There are so many people…”

“I just want to hug you.”

Zachary hugged her tightly as if he was desperately clinging on to the most important thing in the world, unwilling to let go.

“Stop fooling around.” Charlotte was embarrassed as there were at least more than ten pairs of eyes staring at them.

As everyone else knowingly left to give them some privacy, Ben walked in to report, “Mr. Nacht, it’s about time to leave now…”

Before he finished his sentence, he quickly turned away when he saw what he had stumbled upon.

Zachary let Charlotte go and helped her tidy her hair. Taking a look at the jewelry, he commented, “It’s beautiful. It’s alright to look glamorous at your own wedding.”

“Alright.” Charlotte accepted his suggestion.

Upon his cue, two stylists quickly helped Charlotte put on the jewelry.

When Charlotte looked at herself in the mirror, she was enthralled by what she saw.

Zachary was standing by her side, staring at her with a gentle and longing smile.

After exchanging smiles in the mirror, they walked out together hand in hand.

“Daddy, mommy…”

The children were already dressed and waiting downstairs. The moment they saw their parents descend the steps, all of them stood up. Unlike their usual reaction, they didn’t rush over this time. Instead, they stood in place and waited obediently.

“Robbie, Jamie, Ellie!” When Charlotte saw that her children looked as if they had just stepped out of a fairytale, she couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow! Both of you boys look so handsome! And Ellie, you’re just gorgeous!”

“Mommy, you look equally stunning too, just like a goddess!” After that, the three of them began to flatter Zachary, “Daddy, you look really, really charming!”

“I’m sure you’re only saying that just so you don’t hurt my feelings,” Zachary quipped in a jealous tone.

“Hahaha…” Charlotte cracked up.

“Well, it’s simply because you look just as handsome all the time. Hence, you don’t look any different today.” Robbie’s gaze glistened as he shifted it to Charlotte. “However, this is the first time I’ve seen mommy dress up and she looks absolutely stunning!”

“Yes! That’s right!” Jamie and Ellie nodded as they seconded his statement.

“Mommy is pretty. Mommy is pretty!”

Out of nowhere, Fifi flew over to join them. Even she was dressed up in a striking red scarf tied with a butterfly knot, adding to the festive atmosphere.

Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 640

Outside, the Rolls-Royce limousine was already waiting.

As the bodyguards opened the door, the children entered first followed by Zachary and Charlotte.

After the bodyguards and maids got into the cars behind them, two Rolls-Royce convoys set off for the church.

The children were exceptionally quiet that day. All they did was watch their parents gleefully, sending them their best wishes.

Even Fifi was unusually obedient as she perched within Ellie’s embrace, not making a sound.

As for Zachary, he held onto Charlotte’s hand and looked at her warmly.

Charlotte let out a blissful smile and returned his gaze longingly.

Soon, the convoy arrived at the church by the South Sea.

The Nacht family’s impressive troop of bodyguards stood on both sides of the path to welcome Zachary and Charlotte.

Meanwhile, the guests were chatting and sipping Champagne outdoors on the lawn. When they heard Zachary and the bride had arrived, they hurried into the church and waited for the ceremony to begin.

The ceremony was to start at eleven thirty.

Zachary and Charlotte arrived in a holding room at the back of the church. They would then march out at the appointed time.

As the stylist made last minutes adjustments for Charlotte, the stage manager was instructing the three children about their duty as flower boys and girls.

Bruce was also ensuring the security measures were in place.

As for Olivia, she stayed close to Charlotte throughout, not letting her out of sight.

“Mr. Nacht has arrived!”

The moment he heard the cry, Zachary turned around. Spencer was pushing Mr. Nacht in and they were followed by ten elite bodyguards. Together with them were the three nurses that took care of the children at Kindness Hospital.

“Great-grandpa!” The children cried out excitedly.

“Grandpa…” Charlotte greeted respectfully.

“Why are you here?” Zachary stood up to approach Henry.

“I was worried that you had your hands full. So I wanted to help watch the children.”

At his signal, Spencer led Amelia, Violet, and Mildred over.

“Robbie, Jamie, Ellie, is it alright for us to look after you today?”

“Wow! Amelia, Violet, Mildred, it’s been a long while…”

The three nurses had looked after the children for two months before. Hence, they were familiar with them.

The kids were also delighted to see them, especially Jamie and Ellie. Hence, they quickly warmed up to the nurses.

“Daddy?” Robbie was more guarded and gave Zachary an inquisitive look as if he was seeking permission.

Only when Zachary nodded did Robbie agree to leave with them.

With a signal from his hands, eight bodyguards went along with them to ensure the security of the children.

“What is going on?” Charlotte began to feel nervous when she noticed the tension in the air.

“Don’t worry, Ms. Windt,” Spencer quickly explained. “When the heir to the Nacht family weds, it sends shockwaves throughout the entire world. Hence, to prevent any disruptions by suspicious parties, it’s just prudent for us to take extra precautions.”

“Mmm-hmm. Sorry for the trouble.” Charlotte heaved a sigh of relief.

“I want to speak to you for a moment,” Henry said to Zachary.

After patting Charlotte on the shoulder, Zachary went out with Henry. Bruce and his men entered and stationed themselves by the entrance to protect Charlotte.

When Charlotte saw how tight security was, she was further unsettled and suspected that something was up.

After Henry led Zachary to another holding room, he closed the door behind them.

Henry demanded, “What are you doing? Why are you attacking your aunt’s company?”

“Didn’t I tell you to ask her why?” Zachary raised his eyebrow. “What’s wrong? Did she not contact you?”

“Ever since what happened the last time, she has broken off ties with me,” Henry asserted angrily. “I only found out because the company’s staff told me.”

Zachary frowned at Henry’s words. What’s going on? Given how bad the situation is, why doesn’t that crazy woman show herself?

He assumed she had complained to Henry, causing Henry to question him.
