“Didn’t you see her gesture?” Frowning, Lupine explained, “If we go after her and ruin her plan, she’ll get mad at us. You know how hot-tempered she is.’
“But that’s a total stranger! What if he’s up to no good?”
“We have to follow them in secret.” Lupine headed to the back door as Charlotte and that mysterious man had exited the club through that door earlier. “We can’t tail too closely or let anything happen to her.”
“What happened to Ms. Lindberg? She had always been a cool and logical person. But after the man appeared, she seemed to have lost all her reason.”
“Don’t you know? Even the mightiest would fall at a beauty’s glance…”
In a secluded corner, Marino watched as Zachary led Charlotte away. Delighted, he declared, “Mr. Nacht has succeeded!”
“Those women are a nuisance,” remarked Ben with a frown. He was referring to Lupine and Morgan.
“So? Should we stop them?” Marino inquired anxiously.
“If we do, our plan will go bust.” Ben sounded confident. “Don’t worry. Mr. Nacht is capable enough of losing them.”
“Yes, you’re right,” Marino replied proudly. “Should we follow them and see how Mr. Nacht does it?”
“We can see it from here.”
Ben pushed the window open and revealed the parking lot behind the back door.
Immediately, they spotted Zachary, who was now disguised as a mysterious man, running out with Charlotte.
“Do you dare to come with me for a ride?” Zachary was about to retrieve his car keys.
“I should be the one asking that!”
Charlotte pressed a button on her car remote. Swiftly, a silver Pagani sped out of its lot and came to a stop beside them.
Zachary released his grip on his Volkswagen car keys silently.
To make up a perfect disguise, he told Ben to get a cheaper Volkswagen and pretended that was his car.
Little had he expected things to turn out this way.
“Get in!” Charlotte urged and pulled him into the car.
