“Mr. Nacht, countless journalists had surrounded the hospital in an attempt to get their hands on Mr. Henry’s condition. I had sent someone to stop them from barging into the hospital, but they seemed to have figured out what’s going on.”
“Mr. Nacht, we have caught a few journalists sneaking their way into the hospital! Are we supposed to inform the person in charge of the hospital to barricade the hospital?”
“Mr. Nacht, Ellie is having another fever! Shall we send her to Ms. Lindberg’s place?”
Zachary had no time to spare himself. Shortly after he snapped out of confusion, he instructed, “Raina, send Ellie to Northridge at once! We can’t afford to put her life at stake!”
“Yes!”
“Bruce, send Robbie, Jamie, and Mr. Spencer home! Make sure to look after them and get them to have adequate rest!”
“Alright, I’ll get going at once!”
“Ben, announce the news of Grandpa’s passing! However, warn them to stop getting in the family’s way! Otherwise, we’ll press charges against them if they try anything silly!”
“Yes!”
As soon as he had everything sorted out, he made his way back to the company since he had to do something about the sudden dip in the company’s share price.
The stakeholders of Nacht Group were on their way to the hospital as soon as they heard of the bad news.
Johann and Lucy had been trying to get in touch with Zachary, but they just couldn’t reach him since he was occupied with the arrangements of his late grandfather’s wake and funeral.
Instead of tending to them, he gathered the legal team around to sort out the will of his late grandfather before making his way to meet the board of directors.
He had no time to take his condition into consideration because of the things he had on his plate. Since it merely lasted for a few seconds, he thought it wasn’t a big deal and paid no heed to it.
Zachary thought it might be the aftermath of pulling a few all-nighters. After all, no ordinary person could stay awake for a few consecutive days without sleeping.
Meanwhile, shortly after Louis pulled over at the courtyard, Charlotte showed up.
“Charlotte!” The moment Charlotte looked in his direction, she saw the man greeting her with a bright grin as if he had been waiting for her.
“It’s a pleasure to make your acquaintance again! Danrique wants us to make our way to Erihal in two days! I already have everything sorted out for the journey!”
Charlotte responded with a nod and suggested, “I’m sure you’re exhausted after such a long journey. Why don’t you go ahead and take a short break? I have quite a few things to sort out as well.”
“Sure, I’ll stop getting in your way. I’m sure you have a lot of things to sort out since we’re leaving soon!”
“Lupine, please show Sir Louis the way to his room.”
“Yes! Please come with me, Sir Louis!”
Once Lupine brought Louis and his subordinates upstairs, Charlotte made her way into the mansion and told Dr. Felch her upcoming plan. She made herself clear she needed him to go abroad with them since he was the only one Ellie could rely on.
Dr. Felch was against the idea of leaving, but he couldn’t afford to leave Charlotte and Ellie when their lives were at stake.
On top of that, he was afraid they might not acquire the medical attention they needed since the conflicts between Nacht Group and Lindberg Corporation had gotten to the point of no return.
After much considerations, Dr. Felch nodded and assured, “I can’t turn you down since you and your daughter’s lives depend on me.”
“Thank you so much, Dr. Felch!”
Charlotte was glad he wasn’t against the idea of leaving with him. She couldn’t imagine the things awaiting her had Dr. Felch turned her down instead of leaving with them.
Dr. Felch asked in return, ‘When are we departing? I need to get everything ready as well.”
“We’ll depart in another two days! I’ll have everything sorted out soon! Thus, you don’t have to worry!”
“I need to get a few herbs with me since I can’t get them abroad. Since we’re in such a hurry, I’ll get Hayley and Sam to get everything ready.”
“Alright, I’ll get Morgan to help them out as well!”
