Chapter 1417 She Is The One
Ben glanced at Nancy awkwardly before he answered with a sheepish grin, “It was just amisunderstanding. They have sorted things out already. I’ll share the details with you in a while.”
“What’s the matter? Why can’t you tell me now?”
Left with no choice, Ben whispered, “Mr. Spencer thought Ms. Lindberg was the one accountable foryour injuries since you had put your life at stake to save her when you were in the middle of recovery.”
After a brief pause, Ben took a peek at Nancy before adding, “That was the reason why he picked onher when she came home. However, as soon as Robbie and the rest returned home, the problemswere resolved.”novelbin
Glaring at Ben in the eyes, Zachary asked, “What were you doing at that time?”
“I was on the way to the hospital with Lupine because she was in a critical condition. She neededsomeone to keep her—”
Zachary stopped the stuttering Ben from sharing the rest with him and instructed, “That’s enough. Getout of my sight at once.”
“Y-Yes!” Afraid of getting on Zachary’s nerves, Ben rushed out of the room.
Things had gotten increasingly awkward for the duo in the room because Zachary had just exposedNancy’s little tricks in front of her.
She regretted getting full of herself and trying something as rash as such. Instead of driving them apart,she was the one who had offended the man.
Zachary looked at Nancy in the eyes and deadpanned his reply, “I’ll send you an expensive gift duringthe banquet. Thank you so much for your time and effort. I appreciate you sending Dr. Wright to checkon me all this while.”
“Mr. Nacht, I—”
Once again, the man stopped her and remarked, “Ms. Gold, I’m aware of your feelings for me, but itisn’t mutual. I consider you a friend of mine and nothing else. Therefore, you need to stop wasting yourtime on me.”
“No, Mr. Nacht! You have to listen to me!”
“It’s almost time for my nap,” Zachary made something up because he had no intention to carry on withthe conversation.
Nancy was unwilling to give up just yet. She tried her best to remain calm and asked with her eyesbrimming, “Can you please answer my last question?”
“What is it?” Zachary opened his eyes and asked.
“Did you turn me down because of Charlotte? Are you going to fall for me if she’s not around?” Nancycould barely suppress the urge to cry.
“Isn’t that more than a question? I have no intention of entertaining your what-ifs, but Charlotte is theone and only woman I hold dear in mind. She was the one who taught me the proper way to love—I’llnever fall for anyone other than her.”
Torrents of grief streamed down Nancy’s cheeks when the man made himself clear things would neverwork out between them.
Unwilling to embarrass herself in front of others, she turned around and rushed out of the mansion attop speed.
Staring at the woman’s departing figure, Zachary let out a long sigh of relief and thought he needed abreak from something like this.
Charlotte barged into the room and asked the moment he closed his eyes for his nap, “Why did Nancyrush out of the mansion crying? What have you done?”
As exhausted as Zachary might be, he turned around and looked at her in the eyes with a deadpanlook, indicating he was speechless.
“Wait, what could you have possibly done when you’re in such a bad shape? Have you told heranything?” Charlotte finally returned to her senses and thought it was very silly of her to ask somethingas absurd as such.
Irked by the questions she had for him, Zachary glared at her in the eyes and thought of ignoring herand her foolish questions.
