Chapter 1492q“Speak of the devil,” Charlotte said and answered the phone immediately.
“Ms. Lindberg!”
“Gordon, it's great to hear from you again.”
Urgently requiring aid, she quickly asked, “Are you still in Erihal? Have you made contact with
Danrique?”
“Not yet,” Gordon replied. “However, I've confirmed that Mr. Lindberg is still alive and is safe. Hence,
I've returned to H City to protect you and the triplets.”
“You're back in H City? That's great!” Charlotte exclaimed. “Your timing can't be any better. I need help
now!”
“We just arrived at the airport and are at your beck and call.”
“Bring your men to Nacht Group now,” Charlotte instructed immediately.
“Understood, I'll come over now!”
“No, wait...”
All of a sudden, Charlotte calmed down. There are already rumors that claim that I returned to the
Nacht family for revenge under Danrique's command. If his men are to appear by my side at this
juncture, it'll only raise more suspicions.
“Don't worry about it. I brought some new faces along with me this time. No one will recognize them.”
Gordon understood her concerns.“When I met with Sean in Erihal, I had some of his men join me. Although they've always been
following Mr. Lindberg, they never showed themselves in public. Therefore, no one knows who they
are. During the press conference, I'll lay low and protect you in secret. At the same time, I'll try to find
out the culprit who engineered this.”
“What a well-thought-out plan,” Charlotte praised, delighted. “Then, come here right now. I'll send
Lupine to receive you.”
“All right.”
As soon as she ended the call, Lupine immediately said, “That's great. With Gordon around, we've
gotten ourselves a great aid.”
“He sure appeared at such a good timing.” Charlotte was also exhilarated, but she soon started casting
doubt on Gordon's timely arrival. “Wait, it feels like he returned to H City earlier than expected because
he foresaw I would be in trouble.”
“Didn't he mention that he had originally planned to return here? It's just a coincidence.”
Charlotte shook her head. “No, I don't think it's a coincidence but more like he had planned to return to
protect me from the very beginning.”
“Maybe—”
“Maybe Danrique found out what happened to the Nacht family and is worried about me. That's why he
sent Gordon to my aid,” Charlotte deduced. “Danrique has always been like this, tough on the outside
but soft on the inside.”
“You are right.”
Lupine was gratified that Charlotte managed to hit the mark, even though she had not said anything.“Let's start prepping.” Charlotte shifted her focus back to the matter at hand. Glancing at her watch, she
exhorted, “We can't lose this battle. Or else, I will be disappointing Zachary.”
“It's going to be fine. After all, we're innocent,” Lupine consoled her. “All right. I'll go make the
arrangements for security.”
Navig@te back to th€ roots of thïš substance at n0v^lebook“Go on.”
Clutching her phone, Charlotte paced the office. It's already ten, an hour till the press conference.
Since Gordon would be in charge of security, she could finally heave a sigh of relief.
She could rebut the accusations the media had thrown at her and even provide evidence to the
contrary.
However, she had no idea what would ensue.
While she was out in the open, the culprit remained hidden in the dark. It was impossible to be
prepared for the lurking threats.
Nonetheless, there was no point in mulling over it. She could only cross that bridge when she came to
it.
Charlotte sat down and continued her work. Regardless of the situation, she had to remain
levelheaded.
In the meantime, Lucy had informed others that the press conference was rescheduled while Lupine
met with Gordon to settle the arrangements for security.
“Gordon, this is a detailed plan of the building. I'll distribute a copy to each of your men just in case.”“Mmm.” Gordon took the plans from her. Without even looking at them, he passed them to his men.
“I've seen it before. Everything is in my mind.”
