Chapter 1314

“I'm here to discuss the Gymnasium Project, Zachary,” Robert finally revealed why he was here. “I believe you've read the relevant documents. As the other shareholders are fine with it, we just need your signature.”

“The other shareholders are fine with it?” Zachary arched an eyebrow. “Are they waiting for my decision?”

He knew the shareholders wouldn't dare to say a word before he did.

“Ha! Of course,” Robert replied with an awkward grin. “You need to approve it.”

“Mm, I'm going to be the bad guy.” Zachary sipped on his coffee.

“Er...” Robert had no idea Zachary was going to be this difficult. Though he was upset, he had to tamp down his irritation to persuade Zachary.

“You're the most influential person in the corporate world. No one will dare to question your decision, but that doesn't mean you're a bad guy.”

“Why not? Signing the document means offending my children's mommy.” Zachary didn't bother mincing his words. “If it was someone else, never mind. She's the only person I dare not provoke!”

Silence surrounded them as Robert's brows snapped together. “Didn't you break up with her a while ago?” he asked, confused. “She did that to you, didn't she? Why are you still...”

He paused, changing his words so he wouldn't sound so harsh. “The Nacht family and Lindberg family are at odds, and you aren't related to her anymore. Why are you so afraid of her? I don't get it.”

He ended with a careful question.

“I can't help it.” Zachary shrugged helplessly. “She's the mother of my children, and they listen to her. If she's upset and complains to them, I'll have to suffer.”

Robert was speechless. It was clearly an excuse, but he couldn't find a plausible reason to retort that excuse of Zachary.

“You shouldn't be asking for my signature.” Zachary pushed the jewelry boxes back to him. “Instead, go to the person involved. If you don't want her to get involved in the project, go to her personally,” he declared with a smile.

“But I—”

“Oh, I just remembered I have an appointment.” Zachary seemed torn. “Why don't you join me?”

“No need,” Robert responded stiffly. He stood up and made to leave.

“Hey, Sir Robert!” Zachary called, pointing at the silver boxes. “Take these with you. Perhaps you might need it when your son gets you a daughter-in-law.”

Ha pausad, changing his words so ha wouldn't sound so harsh. “Tha Nacht family and Lindbarg family ara at odds, and you aran't ralatad to har anymora. Why ara you so afraid of har? I don't gat it.”

Ha andad with a caraful quastion.
