Showdown 2
Danrique was a little surprised. Zachary always had been an arrogant person, and Danrique never took
him seriously. No matter what, Zachary was indeed a prominent figure in the corporate world. However,
the once insufferable man actually took the initiative to bow his head and confess his mistakes.
It was truly surprising.
“Fortunately, everything has been resolved. I will clean up the rest by myself. I won’t make Charlotte
worry anymore!”
Zachary raised his teacup and smiled at Danrique. “Can I have more tea, my dear brother-in-law?”
“Don’t call me that. It sounds awful.”
Danrique frowned. His expressions were cold and arrogant. At the same time, he gracefully lifted the
teapot and refilled Zachary’s teacup.
“Haha!” Zachary kept calm and smiled gently. Then, he asked with a concerned look, “How’s the
situation at Lindberg Corporation?”
“Everything is going according to plan,” Danrique blurted and was taken aback. He wasn’t supposed to
respond to Zachary’s question. However, he involuntarily answered him.
It was probably because Zachary unknowingly broke the ice between them, making them seem like a
family discussing family matters.
“That’s good.” Zachary nodded. “If there is anything you need me to do-”“No.” Danrique interrupted him coldly to establish a distance with Zachary. “We don’t need an outsider
to intervene in the Lindberg family matters.”
As he spoke, the air immediately became frigid and tensed.
novelbinBruce, who was waiting by the side, looked at Zachary anxiously. Zachary had already put his pride
aside, but Danrique was still treating him arrogantly. He was worried that Zachary might get angry.
“You have misunderstood!” But Zachary didn’t get angry. Instead, he smiled and said, “Now that Nacht
Group’s shares and assets belong to Charlotte, Nacht Group is under her control. She’s not considered
an outsider if she were to help Lindberg Corporation, right?”
Danrique was startled. He raised his head and stared deeply at Zachary’s eyes, trying to see through
his motives.
“When you were poisoned, you transferred your assets to Charlotte to protect the Nacht Group and
your children’s inheritance. Don’t you plan to take it back now that you’ve returned?”
“We’re a married couple, so it doesn’t matter,” Zachary smiled and said, “It is only right for my wife to
help her family.”
Danrique was rendered speechless for a moment. He didn’t know what to say. Zachary’s words were
simply too cheesy. He had the impression that Zachary wanted to enchant him with beautiful words so
that he would let Robbie go.
But after thinking about it, he realized that there was no need for Zachary to do this. After all, he
wouldn’t hurt Robbie or detain him forever.
If Charlotte ever came crying for her child back, he would comply with her wishes. After all, he was her
brother, and he wouldn’t be this cruel to his sister.However, he still couldn’t grasp what Zachary was trying to achieve.
Suddenly, Danrique had a realization. He said coldly, “Did you put away your pride and deliberately
tried to please me so you could have Francesco to continue to treat you?”
“Haha!”
Zachary suddenly laughed as if he heard something funny.
“What are you laughing about?” Danrique frowned.
Zachary slowly took a sip of tea and fidgeted with the teacup. Then, he said amusingly, “You speak as if
you have control over Francesco.”
“You!” Danrique was suddenly rendered speechless by his words.
“Francesco is domineering and unruly by nature. It’s not easy to bring her to heel,” Zachary smirked
and said, “To deal with her, you have to coax her. Brutish methods won’t work!”
“Nonsense!” Danrique glared at Zachary. “As if you understand her very well.”
