“We’ll be there in about an hour. The airport is some distance away, and the plane is still in the air. It’dalso take some time before the good doctor passes through customs,” informed Nancy.
“Please hurry,” blurted Raina.
“Huh? Why? What’s wrong? Did something happen to Mr. Nacht?” asked Nancy hurriedly and in aconcerned tone.
“He fainted.”
Raina knew that there was no point in hiding the truth because Nancy would eventually learn it sinceshe was dropping by with the good doctor.novelbin
“How did that happen? He seemed fine when I left this morning,” shared Nancy. She was instantlyworried.
“It’s a long story. Let’s talk about it in person,” answered Raina to change the topic.
“Okay, I’ll head over as quickly as possible.”
“Thank you.”
After hanging up, Raina turned to Ben and informed, “They will be here in about an hour. It seems thatwe can no longer keep Mr. Nacht’s medical condition a secret.”
“Naturally, we can’t lie to Dr. Wright because she needs to know the symptoms to treat Mr. Nachtproperly. We can, however, lie to Ms. Gold and tell her that it is just a simple injury,” shared Ben, whohad considered everything carefully, “Dr. Wright and Ms. Gold might be friends, but the good doctor is
even closer to Mr. Nacht. I’m sure she understands the importance of keeping things a secret and won’tblab.”
“That’s true,” said Raina while nodding, “Dr. Wright showing up at this time is like finding an oasis in adesert. She would help us greatly.”
“We truly owe Ms. Gold a favor for this,” sighed Ben.
“Please take care of Mr. Nacht. I’ll go set things up.”
“Okay.”
Raina left after that, and Ben became the only one standing guard beside Zachary who was sleepingdeeply and had shallow breaths. It looked like he might die at any moment.
Ben panicked. He knew that Helen could, at most, stabilize Zachary’s condition and prevent it fromworsening. She can’t cure him completely. We still need Francesco for that.
Bruce has already left for Erihal, and I have to locate Francesco soon as well.
Those thoughts prompted Ben to call Lupine once more.
The phone kept ringing, but no one picked up.
Ben found that to be strange. If the phone is ringing, then it means that they have gotten off the privatejet. So, why isn’t she picking up?
Ordinary folks might miss a call or neglect to check their phones, but Lupine was different. Like Ben,she was a trained elite bodyguard and knew to keep in constant contact with her client and/or thoseclose to her.
She would never ignore her call unless something had happened… Oh no!
Ben instantly panicked when he thought about that. Are they in trouble now?
He quickly called Charlotte, but no one picked up either.
That prompted him to call Hayley right away. Finally, someone picked up his call. “Hello!”
“Hayley, have Ms. Lindberg and the others reached your place?” asked Ben to cut to the chase.
“No, not yet,” answered Hayley nervously, “I thought it’s strange as well. By right, they should’ve calledus once they reached the vicinity, but they never got in touch with us. I tried calling Charlotte andLupine earlier, but neither picked up.”
That means something truly had happened!
Ben’s expression took a sharp turn, but his voice remained calm when he informed, “Don’t worry aboutit. Some miscellaneous issues probably delayed them. Please inform me once they show up.”
“Oh, okay.”
After hanging up, Ben had Cain and Kyle take some men over to Phoenix City to locate Charlotte andthe others. He commanded them to bring everyone home safely.
Cain and Kyle took over ten subordinates with them and departed right away.
The Nacht family was facing troubles from all angles, and Ben was feeling more pressured and worriedthan ever.
He had faced many grave issues in the past, but everyone felt strong and motivated because Zacharywas around to lead them. He inspired them to be fearless.
With Zachary out of commission, the weight of the Zachary’s burden fell onto them and crushed them.
“Ms. Gold and Dr. Wright are here, Ben,” reported a subordinate at that moment.
“Invite them over immediately.”
