Chapter 1460qLikewise, Charlotte could not wrap her mind around Zachary's intentions.
No matter what, I do not wish to cross paths with that woman anymore in the future. It would be best if
she could vanish from my sight and never show up again!
Nonetheless, seeing that he was adamant about getting it done, she relented as she did not wish to
dispute with him about that matter. Due to his deteriorating condition, everyone complied with his
wishes unconditionally.
Time flew by, and two more days had elapsed. Sadly, they were still unable to track down Francesco's
whereabouts.
Zachary had made proper arrangements for everything related to the corporation. In the past few days,
both Robert and Sherlyn had been meaning to talk things out with him, hoping that he would let Louis
off the hook.
After being kicked out of the Gymnasium Project, they had admitted defeat and solely wished to bring
their son back to their side.
Navig@te back to th€ roots of thïš substance at n0v^lebookEver since Ben seized Louis in Phoenix City, the latter had been held captive for ten days. As Louis
had suffered punishments, his mental condition was worrying. Hence, Robert and Sherlyn were
apprehensive that he might sustain a mental breakdown if he was confined for any longer.
With snots and tears all over their faces, the couple pleaded with Zachary to grant Louis mercy and let
him off.
Even so, Zachary was devoid of expression as they yowled. Half an hour later, he looked at his watch
and said placidly, “I need to attend a meeting. Please excuse me.”
As he spoke, he stood up to leave.Heart sinking, Robert went on his knees. In an ever so servile manner, he pleaded, “Zachary, I know
what you care about the most. Please accept my sincerest apology and spare my son's life. I swear I
will keep a close eye on him and restrain him from pestering Charlotte again.”
“We won't let Louis step into H City again. Please let him off. We don't want the money or the project
anymore. Our only request is to bring our son back,” Sherlyn begged piteously.
Zachary snapped at them coldly, “You should be begging for mercy from someone else, not me.”
The couple exchanged looks and knew at once what Zachary meant. Apparently, he was hinting at
them to plead with Charlotte.
Ben even gave them another clue, saying that Charlotte was on her way to the office for a meeting with
Zachary.
Without hesitation, the couple turned to plead with her upon her arrival, repeating everything they had
mentioned to Zachary moments ago.
Charlotte felt guilty for placing Louis in such a predicament. Things would not have turned out that way
if she did not agree to his proposal.
Not to mention, Louis had paid the price for his misdeeds. Since Robert and Sherlyn had swallowed
their dignity to plead with her, she decided to be merciful and talked Zachary into letting Louis go.
In the presence of Robert and Sherlyn, Zachary agreed to spare Louis, declaring that it was all for
Charlotte's sake. On top of that, he advised them to discipline Louis after bringing him home. If not, he
would never go easy on him the next time.
After thanking them profusely, the couple picked up their son and left H City as promised.Still, Ben did not dare to let his guard down and asked Zachary if there was a need to assign someone
to keep an eye on them.
However, Zachary was convinced that they would not be able to turn the table on them as the royal
family of F Nation was displeased with the Laurents for being kicked out of the Gymnasium Project.
With the royal family oppressing them, the Laurent family would not have the energy to stir up trouble
again for a few years, to say the least.
Ben heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing his explanation.
The arrangement for the handover of work within the corporation was completed by then. Zachary even
introduced Charlotte to the employees formally so that she could gain everyone's recognition.
Apart from that, with Spencer and Johann at the helm, the corporation would still be in safe hands even
if anything untoward were to happen to him. The matters in the Nacht family had also been taken care
of.
The only thing left to do at the moment was to locate Francesco as soon as possible.
