“In that case, go ahead with your wedding then. What do you still want with me?” Zachary gently covered
Nancy with a jacket. “You even crashed through the window and disrupted my fun!”
“Return the children to me, and I’ll leave at once.”
Charlotte was seized by bitterness when she saw how attentive Zachary was toward Nancy. However,
she maintained her strong front. “After that, I will not interfere with whoever you want to bed.”
“Bullsh*t!” Zachary sneered, “What gives you the right to butt your nose into my affairs? Do you even
have the capability to do so?”
“In that case, what has my relationship with Louis got anything to do with you? What gave you the right
to barge in and cause a ruckus?” Charlotte snapped.
At the mention of that matter, Zachary’s expression changed drastically. Smashing the wineglass onto
the floor, he pinned Charlotte onto the sofa.
Grabbing her by the cheeks, he bellowed, “Do you have an itch to scratch because I have not touched
you for the last two years? Do you desire a man so much? To the extent of throwing yourself into
someone else’s arms?”
“What are you doing? Let go of me!”
Charlotte tried vehemently to push him away. However, his body was as heavy as a rock. No matter how
hard she tried, he just wouldn’t budge.
Instead, her struggles ended up arousing him. Given that she was wearing a swimsuit, her attempt to
free herself ended up exposing more of her body.
“If you don’t stop moving, I’ll take you right here!” Zachary roared after having noticed the change in his
body. “Considering you’ve knocked my woman unconscious, I will have to replace her with you.”
Charlotte’s heart was torn upon hearing Zachary’s words. He said that she was his woman. His woman…
“Charlotte!” Grabbing Charlotte’s face, Zachary was filled with agony as he questioned her, “Do you know
how much I had to go through just so I can bring you home? I was filled with anticipation at our family
reunion. And yet, what did you give me in return?
“Don’t you know that since the very beginning, you have been the only one for me? Even during the two
years you were missing, I didn’t touch any other woman. No matter how many women throw themselves
at me, I have never wavered. But you… you ended up with Louis all of a sudden! Do you know how
much I hate you? I hate you so much that I feel the urge to strangle you to death…”
When he uttered the last sentence, Zachary gritted his teeth. With a trembling voice, he could no longer
suppress the sorrow he felt.
Reaching out his hands, he clasped them around Charlotte’s neck. However, he couldn’t bring himself to
exert any strength.
At that moment, Charlotte was overwhelmed by her own emotions and guilt. As her heart began to
soften, she replied in a choking voice, “Zachary, actually, I…”
Bam! Bam! Bam!
“Charlotte! Charlotte!”
Charlotte was abruptly interrupted by a desperate bang on the door. She was jolted when she heard
Louis’ frantic shouts from outside.
Why is Louis here at a time like this?
Zachary’s gaze sharpened instantaneously. Just a moment ago, he thought Charlotte was about to
explain herself, which reignited the hope within him.
However, Louis’ appearance had interfered with his stroke of luck.
“You’ve outdone yourself, Charlotte.” Zachary coldly tapped Charlotte on her cheeks and sneered,
“Looks like both husband and wife have come to confront me. One pretends to negotiate while the other
comes to apply pressure on me? Did you also send men to my villa to kidnap the children? Hmm?”
“I…” Charlotte panicked when she realized that he had seen through her. However, she quickly regained
her composure and explained, “It’s not like that, Zachary…”
“Zachary, open the door! Open the door right now!”
While Louis was still banging on the door desperately, Theo’s voice rang out.
“Louis, stop causing a scene. I already told you that the lady Mr. Nacht brought into his room is Nancy
Gold, not Ms. Lindberg.”
