The Lindberg’s convoy managed to block Zachary’s. Only Bruce and two other subordinates managed to
get away and continue pursuing Zara.
“Zachary, hand Zara over!”
Charlotte got out of the car and pointed her gun at Zachary.
Given that she had just finished her treatment, her entire face was still red while she carried a splitting
headache. Fill with rage, her eyes looked as if they could spit fire.
“Aren’t you supposed to be in treatment? Why did you come?”
Zachary was worried when he realized she was looking out of sorts.
“Drop the act.” Charlotte grabbed him by the collar and growled, “Zachary, you hypocrite. While
pretending to be noble, you were hiding Zara all the time. In fact, you planned to smuggle here out of H
City. How despicable can you be?”
“No, Ms. Lindberg. You have misunderstood-”
“Shut up!”
Just when Ben wanted to explain, Lupine interrupted him with a gun pointed at his head.
“I was wrong to have trusted you. I thought you would be able to tell right from wrong. Instead, you
ended up hiding that b*tch.”
“I didn’t…” Ben was dumbstruck.
“I just feel that we should hand her over to the police and let the law punish her.” Furrowing his
eyebrows, Zachary asserted, “This isn’t Erihal. You cannot ignore the law and take matters into your own
hands.”
“At the end of the day, you are still trying to protect that b*tch.” Charlotte was furious. “And yet, here I
was thinking that you have changed and wanted to make amends. I even thought that the children could
co-exist with the Nacht family. I can’t believe how naive I was!”
“Charlotte, you’ve misunderstood. Listen to me-”
“Enough!” Charlotte cut him off and cocked her gun. “Hand Zara over, or I’ll blow your brains out!”
Just as he spoke, Lupine and the rest of the female bodyguards aimed their weapons at Zachary’s men.
Lupine pointed her gun at Ben while Morgan hesitated before aiming hers at Marino.
“Morgan, are you really doing this to me?” Marino grew anxious. “All of you have the wrong idea. Zara
has just taken Henry hostage and fled to the airport.”
“Marino!” Ben snapped at once.
“Mr. Nacht, I have no intention of betraying you at all. But if I don’t tell them, they will definitely fire.”
Marino grew desperate. “Furthermore, Zara might hurt even Mr. Nacht while Bruce has only brought two
men with him.”
“Really?” Morgan pressed on.
“Of course,” Marino replied nervously. “Ms. Lindberg, you are mistaken about Mr. Nacht. He wasn’t the
one who harbored Zara. It was Mr. Henry instead. We were planning to ambush them here so that we
could capture her. However, no one expected Zara to cruelly hold Mr. Henry hostage-”
“Shut up!” Zachary barked to cut him off.
Marino lowered his head and didn’t dare say another word.
“You fool!” Charlotte shot Zachary an angry glare. “We’ll deal with this later.”
Just as she spoke, she got back into her car with her bodyguards and drove after Zara.
Slap! Ben approached Marino and slapped him. “You idiot. Why did you betray Mr. Nacht?”
“That wasn’t my intention. I was just…”
“Forget it. Let’s pursue them right away,” Zachary urged.
“Yes.”
As everyone got back into their cars, they headed toward the airport at once.
The convoy in front consisted of silver-colored cars, while the ones behind were all black. Both groups
seemed to be racing against each other in the night to see who could catch up to Zara first.
Inside the car, Marino gritted his teeth as he drove on anxiously.
Ben, who was sitting beside him, urged him on, “Drive faster. We have to catch Zara before they do.”
“Why?” Marino asked warily. “Zara caused Mrs. Berry’s death and kidnapped Mr. Robinson. In fact, she
even killed one of our comrades. We should just let Ms. Lindberg capture her. Why should we even save
her? I don’t get it.”
