Everyone in the Nacht family were in tears.

Johann fell ill upon hearing the tragedy.
When the guests at Northridge heard about it, they were stupefied.
The happy wedding had turned into a disaster.
Within a night, Southridge was ruined.
Charlotte refused to believe that Zachary was dead. He must still be alive. He must be…
Still clinging onto some hope, she ordered her subordinates to investigate it.
Given the Nacht family’s current situation, someone had to keep the household in order.

Charlotte had no more strength to weep. Despite her agony, she had to stay strong.
Firstly, she made arrangements for the guests and ordered her subordinate to seal off Southridge.Then, she requested the police to continue searching for Zachary’s whereabouts.
At the same time, she instructed Raina to treat Ellie, Ben, and the rest of the wounded to the best ofher abilities.
Charlotte firmly believed that since Ben had been in Zachary’s bedroom before fainting, he shouldknow where Zachary was and what happened that night.
According to what the surviving bodyguards described, some mysterious masked men intrudedSouthridge that night. First, they placed an explosive in the kitchen. Once it was ignited, they made useof the chaos and launched a surprise attack.
The only clue Marino provided after he regained consciousness was that Connor spotted someone wholooked similar to Zachary before the explosion. That person might be related to the incident.
However, the police thought the clue was too vague to be useful.
When Charlotte heard Marino’s recount, a figure flashed across her mind. Chris!
Chris was Zara’s son and Zachary’s cousin.
He had inherited the Nacht family’s genes. His height, physique, and demeanor resembled that ofZachary a lot. In terms of looks, he also bore some resemblance to Zachary.
Ever since what happened to Zara, Chris’ shares and position in Nacht Group had been withdrawn. Torestrain Chris, Zachary kept him under some form of control. However, he was merciful to his cousin,allowing the latter to live.
Afterward, Chris left the house and broke off contact with the Nacht family.
Evidently, he was a strong suspect.
Charlotte immediately instructed Bruce to investigate Chris.
Bruce passed the orders to his subordinates. At the same time, he also voiced his doubts. “Mr. Broidhas been incompetent from a young age. Other than squandering money, he only knows how to toywith women. He’s nothing but a frivolous playboy, so I doubt he’s capable or smart enough to do allthese.”
“We can’t be too sure.” Charlotte frowned. “Since his life was turned upside down, his personality mightchange drastically. In the past, he was incompetent because he had a high social status and wealthwithout needing to do anything. After Zara died, he had nothing left. Humiliated and mocked by others,he might grow to resent Zachary.”
“You aren’t wrong.” Bruce analyzed, “However, Mr. Nacht merely took Chris’ shares in Nacht Groupand stripped him of his position. His inheritance from his mother is probably sufficient for him to spendfor the rest of his lifetime. It’s not true that he has nothing.”
