“I'm pretty sure that will never be the case!” he announced with his chest held high as if he was certain she would never hurt him.
“Are you sure?” Charlotte stepped forward with the knife and repeated her question.
An anxious chef yelled, “Watch out! I have been sharpening that knife daily to ensure it's sharp enough for my cooking!”
Unfortunately, the chef was too late as he failed to stop the woman from hurting the man. As a result, blood started streaming down the man's neck.
The surprised Zachary asked, “Are you being serious?”
The staff in the kitchen was horrified by the potential outcome of the saga. The owner of the kitchen gulped and urged, “Ms. Lindberg, shall we calm down and talk things through?”
“Get out of my sight at once!”
“Y-Yes!” The owner of the restaurant beckoned the rest of the staff in the kitchen to leave the duo alone with him.
Once he marched out of the kitchen, he told their bodyguards, “T-They're in the middle of a fight! To be precise, Ms. Lindberg has placed a knife on Mr. Nacht's neck!”
Lupine and Morgan shrugged their shoulders after exchanging glances with one another.
Marino's mind was all over the place. He couldn't stop himself from consulting his partner next to him. “B-Ben!”
“Just calm down and leave the rest to him,” Ben assured his partner things would turn out just fine.
The owner gaped at the response of the two bodyguards and asked, “A-Aren't you guys going to do anything about it?”
Ben suggested, “Why don't you tend to the things you have on your plate and leave the rest to us?”
“H-Huh?”
Holding the knife she had around the man's neck, Charlotte warned him, “Zachary, I'm going to repeat myself for one last time! I'll definitely gain custody of our children! Also, there's no way I'm letting Zara and Sharon off the hook since they're the ones behind Mrs. Berry's demise!”
Halfway through her orated speech, she paused and glared at him in the eyes. A few seconds later, she enunciated, “I don't care if you're having an affair with others! Just stop showing up in front of me! There's no use trying to provoke me because you're merely getting on my nerves!”
“Scram!”
