Charlotte fell into silence. Still, she was not too optimistic about it. One of the reasons being Henry’s unfriendly attitude toward her, while the other reason was what Sam told her earlier that day.
It felt like Sam was hinting at something. Inexplicably, she had a bad feeling about it. Is he trying to tell me that there is still toxic residual in my blood?
“What’s wrong?” asked Zachary. “You look bothered.”
“Nothing. I couldn’t be happier right now.” She leaned against his shoulder. “Perhaps it’s normal for every woman to be anxious before their wedding.”
“You silly girl.” Zachary caressed her hair. “Put your mind at ease and leave everything to me. You are going to be the happiest bride ever.”
“Mm.” She nodded smilingly.
“You must be tired now, and you should sleep early tonight. Tomorrow is going to be a long day as we need to take our wedding photos at the seaside.”
“Aright then.” Charlotte wrapped the coat tighter around her. “I’ll go to bed now while you stay with the kids. Come join me later.”
“Alright.”
Zachary gestured to the maid to help Charlotte into the house.
His smile gradually disappeared as her figure vanished from sight. He then beckoned Bruce over and asked, “How’s Dr. Felch?”
“He’s still unconscious,” Bruce replied. “Raina has invited a group of specialists from overseas to treat Dr. Felch. His vital signs are stable, yet there is no sign of him waking up.”
Zachary furrowed his brows. After a while, he asked, “Have you found that crazy woman?”
“Not yet.” Bruce lowered his head, embarrassed with his incompetency. “It seems like she is deliberately hiding from us. We can’t find her anywhere.”
“Use all resources to search for her. I don’t believe she can hide forever.”
Zachary felt fury rose within him when he recalled what Zara had done.
“Yes, Mr. Nacht.” Bruce nodded.
