Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort Chapter 1042

Zachary could not utter any words to refute. Undeniably, the Nacht family had owed Charlotte too much.

He thought that Cynthia’s heinous act had enlightened Henry. With this, all the misunderstandings and
ruckus bugging them all this while would come to an end. It never occurred to him that there would be
another round of turbulence for them. Unavoidably, nobody would still be able to stay cool under such
circumstances.

“Don’t make me say it again! I must take this woman away today!” Charlotte gritted her teeth and pointed
at Zara in exasperation.

“I had sworn to avenge Mrs. Berry by paying Zara Nacht and Sharon Blackwood in their coins! I won’t
think twice to finish whoever dares to stand in my way! You won’t be an exception too!” Charlotte hissed.

Zachary felt a rush of inexplicit complex emotions as he gazed at Charlotte resignedly. A surge of guilt
welled up from within him, yet he could not turn his back on his grandpa.

“I’m sorry!” Like a bolt of lightning, he grabbed hold of Charlotte’s wrist, seized her gun, and pinned it
against her forehead. Everyone was overwhelmed as everything happened within such a short span.



“Put down your guns!” Zachary commanded the female bodyguards of the Lindberg family.

Only then did Lupine come to her senses and fumed, “What a despicable b*stard! How can you treat Ms.
Lindberg this way!”



At the sight of Zachary, who was threatening Charlotte, Morgan rushed out of the car and pointed her
gun at him. “Let go of Ms. Lindberg!”



“Mor, try to cool down…” Marino tried to talk Morgan into putting down her gun. Nonetheless, she turned
to point the gun at him and pulled the trigger without a second thought.

“My goodness! You really did that!” Marino was stupefied; his shoulder was scraped by the bullet.

“Zachary Nacht, you are really a brute! Ms. Lindberg has sacrificed so much by bearing three children for
you. The Nacht family inflicted harm on her numerous times, yet she never thought of settling a score
with you. How could you point the gun at her now?” Morgan was infuriated and lashed out at Zachary.

To her, love was never comparable to her loyalty to Charlotte. Not to mention, Zachary’s indifferent
demeanor had shattered her fantasy for love within seconds.

“All of you from the Nacht family are the same! How can you claim that you are from the prestigious
family of the upper-level society with such a malicious mind! Let go of Ms. Lindberg at once. If not, I will
notify Mr. Lindberg at once!” Lupine became worked up and snapped at Zachary; her hand holding the
gun was trembling uncontrollably.

“Mr. Nacht, do you think it’s a bit much for her?” Ben tried to appease Zachary and talk him out of
pointing his gun at Charlotte.

Even Ben felt that the Nacht family had owed Charlotte too much. Thus, it was deemed a matter of fact
for her to insist on capturing Zara. As Zachary’s mind was preoccupied with rescuing Henry at the
moment, he was worried sick that he would exacerbate the situation by acting impulsively.

“Put your guns down and step aside! Do you get me?” Zachary snarled at the female bodyguards of the
Lindberg family.

All of them turned to look at Lupine and Morgan in bewilderment. Nonetheless, the precarious situation
sent both of them into a tizzy, turning their minds into mush.



“Don’t release her!” Charlotte yelled out all of a sudden. “Even if he shoots me dead, you must bear in
mind to bring that woman back!”

Zachary felt a prickle of anxiousness and whispered to her apprehensively, “Why are you so hard-
headed? Just let me save my grandpa first. Once I have saved him, I will surely…”

“Do you dare to shoot me?” Charlotte glared at him and cut him off. “Why don’t you try to shoot me with
your gun?”

“I-I…” Zachary stammered. He did not even place his finger on the trigger of his gun.

“Since he doesn’t dare, I will be the one to do that!” Unexpectedly, Zara fired a shot at Charlotte’s
shoulder.

Bang! Blood spurted from her wound at once.

Charlotte stiffened; the instant stabbing pain was numbing her senses. As her blood splattered onto her
face, it was as though her heart was eroded by the penetrative burning sensation of sulfuric acid.

Everyone was rooted to the spot, including Zachary.

“What are you doing?” Zachary bellowed at Zara after he came to his senses.

“All of you from the Lindberg family, put your guns down! If not, I will finish her off now!” Zara threatened.

Intimidated by her threatening tone, all the bodyguards from the Lindberg family could only bow to her by
putting their guns down as instructed.
