Chapter 1286Chapter 1286
“Mr. Nacht, something urgent came up.” Ben's voice came from outside the door.
“Take your time. The children are in the courtyard.” Zachary snuffed out his cigarette and walked out.
“Alright,” Charlotte said, looking at him as he left.
Lupine ushered Zachary and Ben to the study and handed them a bottle of water each before excusing
herself.
“What's the matter?” Zachary asked impatiently.
“Sir Robert is working together with other shareholders to get Ms. Lindberg out of the Gymnasium
Project. They have already asked the lawyer to draft a notice. They are waiting for you to sign it. Mr.
Williams called just now to ask when is a good time for you to sign the document,” Ben reported,
turning the laptop to Zachary, “This is the digital version.”
“Don't bother,” Zachary said, his brows stitched, “I'll look into this on Monday.”
“Sure,” Ben answered as he closed the laptop. “There's something else.”
Zachary nodded, waiting for him to proceed.
“Bruce had already found Dr. Felch. He's still in H City,” Ben said, looking at Zachary carefully before
continuing, “I think it would be good to see him as soon as possible. We shouldn't drag this out.”
“So this is the urgent matter you were talking about?” Zachary eyed him coldly.“Dr. Felch's going back to Phoenix City tonight. Bruce is doing everything he can to delay him,” Ben
replied anxiously, “Dr. Felch is not feeling well, so we should really hurry before...”
“Alright,” Zachary cut him short, looking at his watch, “Where's he?”
“He's in the northern suburbs in H City. It will take about three hours for us to drive there.”
“We'll leave after lunch.” Zachary wanted to spend more time with Charlotte and the children.
“But...”
“That's not up for discussion,” Zachary replied, kicking Ben in the leg, “You're getting nosy, aren't you?”
Ben looked down and nodded in silence. He and Bruce were worried about Zachary, but Zachary did
not seem concerned at all.
Zachary had just gotten out of the study and was about to head downstairs when he saw Lupine talking
to Charlotte. “Get ready. We're leaving in an hour,” Charlotte said.
“What about the kids?”
“I'll go play with them now.”
Charlotte wanted to spend more time with the children, but she really had to leave soon. “I have to pay
Dr. Felch a visit now. Is it okay if the kids stay a few more days?” she asked Zachary beseechingly.
“Wouldn't it be better if you just stay at Northridge? It'll be way more convenient for you, but you insist
on staying at a remote place like this.”
Charlotte fell into silence. She knew what Zachary said was right, but she wanted to keep a distance
between them.It was not like they could get back together just because he saved her.
Danrique will be so pissed if he finds out.
“Whatever. I'm going to see Dr. Felch as well. We can go together.”
“Then can the kids stay?”
“Yes. They'll stay for the weekend and leave on Sunday,” Zachary said as he walked out, “I'll wait for
you in the car. Be quick.”
“Yes!” Charlotte replied eagerly and ran to the courtyard to look for the children. “Robbie! Jamie! Ellie!”
“Mommy!” The three children darted over and hugged their mother. “Mommy, we miss you so much!”
Charlotte bent down and pulled them into her arms. “I missed y'all too! Why didn't y'all come upstairs? I
didn't even know you guys are here.”
“Daddy said you're sleeping.”
“Mommy, you've lost weight.”
“Mommy, why don't you come home with us? Your house is so far away. We have to wake up early in
the morning just to come and see you.”

“Mommy, you can come back to Northridge at least. It's much closer.”
