Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort chapter 1380
“We’ll be there in about an hour. The airport is some distance away, and the plane is still in the air. It’d also 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 a concerned tone.
“He fainted.”
Raina knew that there was no point in hiding the truth because Nancy would eventually learn it since she was dropping by with the good doctor.
“How did that happen? He seemed fine when I left this morning,” shared Nancy. She was instantly worried.
“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 that we 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. Nacht properly. We can, however, lie to Ms. Gold and tell her that it is just a simple injury,” shared Ben, who had 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’t blab.”
“That’s true,” said Raina while nodding, “Dr. Wright showing up at this time is like finding an oasis in a desert. 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 sleeping deeply 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 from worsening. 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.
