“If you hadn’t committed all those dirty deeds, no one would be after you.” Henry threw the paper in his hands at
Zara’s face. He scolded, “Look at what you have done. Are you even a Nacht? You have utterly disgraced our
family!”
“Isn’t it obvious you were the one who forced me to do it?”
Zara was already sixty. When she was reprimanded by Henry in front of others, her rage intensified at the
humiliation.
“You… you’re beyond saving!” Henry was so angry that he felt as if his heart was about to explode. “If I had known
better, I shouldn’t have saved you. Instead, I should have let you die…”
“You saved me? I only came here because I have no other choice.” Zara yelled angrily, “Are you now planning to
hand me over to Zachary? Or to the Lindberg family where they can chop me up to bits?”
“You…”
“Enough, Ms. Zara.”

Not wanting Henry to be further agitated, Spencer stepped in to reduce the tension.
“The private jet is ready. It will leave H City on the pretext of returning to M Nation. On its way there, it will drop you
off at Alendor. Despite Mr. Nacht’s old age and deteriorating health, he is still trying his best to protect you. You
should at the very least appreciate what he has done.”
Zara fell silent after she heard Spencer’s words. By then, Henry was the only person left that could save her. If she
had lost his support, there would be no one left for her to turn to.
“Thank you, Dad.” Zara’s tone finally wavered. “I’ll listen to whatever you say.”
“Prepare to depart.” Henry signaled.
“Yes.” Spencer began preparations. “Ms. Zara, you will have to bear with this.”
Spencer ordered his men to dress Zara up in a disguise before fitting her into a large suitcase. After loading her
into the trunk, they began driving out slowly.
In the car, Spencer looked out at the rain with a grim expression. Despite how steady he had always been, he felt
particularly on edge that evening.
“Calm down,” Mr. Nacht reassured, “no one dares to stop my car.”

“Mr. Nacht,” Spencer couldn’t resist asking, “If Mr. Zachary finds out, he might break ties with you. Do you not have
any regrets doing this?”
“I know what I’m doing is wrong.” Henry couldn’t help but sigh. “I have made many mistakes in my life due to my
stubborn and domineering character. However, I have no choice but to make another one. You don’t have children
of your own, so you won’t understand my dilemma. Back then, I felt like dying after what happened to Harrison and
Beatrice. But now, I only have Zara left. Regardless of the terrible things she has done, I still feel the urge to keep
her alive. However, I have made the necessary arrangements so that she will never cause trouble again..”
Henry didn’t elaborate on his final sentence. When he told Zara that she was to be sent to Alendor, and he would
arrange for someone to pick her up there, he was lying.
He intended to let her stay in Alendor for the rest of her life.
That was the only way he could keep her out of trouble.
He wanted her to realize how hard life was by letting her experience living a primitive life. Perhaps, she would then

learn the value of life itself.
Not knowing what to say, Spencer sighed.
Henry felt unsettled when he saw that the rain outside getting heavier. He could only hope that they reached the
airport sooner. The longer they remain exposed, the more dangerous it became.
Hence, he ordered the driver, “Step on it!”
“Yes!”
Just when he thought everything would proceed smoothly, their convoy was blocked by Zachary’s car the moment
they left Garden Villa.
“Mr. Nacht, what should we do?”
Spencer began to panic as he could sense that Zachary suspected something.
“Stay calm. Tell him that I’m returning to M Nation.”
Given how much experience Henry had, he was steady as a rock. Moreover, he was facing the grandson whom he
had raised.
He didn’t believe that Zachary would do anything to him.
