The subordinate looked at Nancy and spoke, “I don't understand, Ms. Gold. Lindberg Corporation has fallen from grace and Danrique is still nowhere to be found. Ms. Lindberg is just a nobody now. Why do you have to treat her so respectfully?”
Nancy smiled subtly. “You guys are too short-sighted. Lindberg Corporation's downturn is temporary. They will make a comeback one day and that will be the heyday of the company, so we shouldn't just kick the Lindbergs aside and treat them too casually. Besides, she's Mr. Nacht's ex-wife. They have three children together. This made her a unique player. I can't just disregard her. Even if we were to fight over the same man, it should be done in a gentlemanly fashion so no one takes it personally.”
“I see,” the subordinate answered with a convincing nod, “Ms. Gold, you're really wise.”
Nancy walked over to look at Charlotte's car as they got in, her expression complex.
“Ms. Gold, that's Mr. Nacht's car.”
“It seems like they're still close.”
This made Nancy felt more conflicted.
Over in the car, Lupine had already started the engine. “Are we heading back to Yaleview, Ms. Lindberg?”
“Yes.” Charlotte looked at the high-rise building opposite and memories came flooding back. Level 68's lights were still on and she wondered if Zachary was still working.
“That's Mr. Nacht's car!” Lupine exclaimed.
Charlotte looked up and saw Zachary's Rolls-Royce coming out from the car park and pulling up beside Platinum Café.
Nancy and her bodyguards were already outside the restaurant to welcome him. Zachary got off and went in with her.
The two seemed intimate from the looks of it.
