Chapter 1348

Hearing that, Robert could not help but tense up slightly.

Is there a new lead on Danrique's whereabouts? No, that can't be. The Lindbergs are declining now. He's rumored to have died in an explosion while out at sea, so there's no way he'll come back!

At the thought of that, he continued to threaten Charlotte, “We'll talk about that when he actually comes back. But for now, you'd better sign this contract, or else...”

“Or else what?” the woman barked, raising an eyebrow haughtily.

“You're all alone now. I can do whatever I want to you, and I don't even need to do it myself.” Robert sneered. “Do you really think a few female bodyguards will be able to protect you?”

“You...”

“They can't, but I can.”

Suddenly, a cold, dignified voice came from outside. Robert froze momentarily before turning his head, only to see Zachary striding into the house with a frosty expression on his face.

“Zachary...”

The older man turned ghastly pale in an instant. He had gone looking for the other shareholders after parting with Divine Corporation on bad terms, but no one else had dared to budge without Zachary's permission.

That was why he had to resort to coercing Charlotte instead.

Robert had assumed that Charlotte would give up her investment sum out of desperation to protect herself, but he did not expect her to be this strong-willed.

Just as he was about to make things even more difficult for her, Zachary decided to show up.

“What are you doing here?”

Charlotte was just as astonished to see Zachary. She had felt conflicted upon receiving word early this morning that Nancy was headed to Southridge. Nancy was so brilliant and proactive that it was only a matter of time until Zachary fell for her—or so she thought.

Yet, here he was instead.

“I was heading down the mountain when I saw Sir Robert's car, so I decided to join in on the fun.”

Zachary sat next to Charlotte, picked up that document, and sneered upon browsing through it.

“Which lawyer did you hire to draw up such an outrageous contract, Sir Robert? You went ahead and acted on your own without my approval. This is against the rules, you know?”
