Chapter 276


    Dad used to tell me that all the powerful businessmen here could never marry whomever they wanted.


    Theyd either get married for business deals and political reasons or be forced into unions with other


    families-all for the sake of benefitting their families.I guess Zachary Nacht is no exception.


    The thought of Zachary possibly marrying another woman made Charlotte''s heart burn with fury. She


    pulled at her dinosaur pillow and was on the verge of ripping it apart.


    That disgusting scumbag! Why does he keep teasing me despite already having a fiancee?From now


    on, I''ll have to stay away from himU''ll ignore him if he everes looking for me again.


    Then, she nced at her phone. If he calls, I''ll either not pick up or just reject the call to piss him


    off!


    Yet, the man didn''t call all night.


    In fact, Zachary didn''t drop by the office for the next few days, and work was much more rxing.


    For the first two days, Charlotte was delighted by his absence. It''d be better if he neveres back!


    Everyone feels on edge whenever he''s around.


    Then, a week went by in the blink of an eye, and Zachary still didn''te to work.


    Charlotte began to feel uneasy. Where the hell has he gone to?He didn''t actually go get married to


    Sharon, did he?


    Just as Charlotte pondered over the idea of sending Zachary a text message, she suddenly heard a


    few secretaries muttering among themselves by the pantry.


    "Hey! Why do you think Mr. Nacht hasn''t beening to work?"


    "Isn''t it obvious? He must be busy spending time with Ms. ckwood."


    "Yeah! Ms. ckwood''spany is located in M Nation, but she''se all the way to H City to


    discuss a joint project, so it''s only natural that Divine Corporation treats her like royalty."


    "But that doesn''t mean Mr. Nacht has to do it personally!"


    "What do you girls know? Mr. Nacht and Ms. ckwood are childhood sweethearts, so of course Mr.


    Nacht has to wee her in person! Who knows, Ms. ckwood might even be our future boss."


    "Huh? Is that true?"


    "Of course it is! I heard it from Ms. Wright herself H


    "What are youdies talking about?” Lucy interrupted them coldly.

    With that, the few secretaries immediately dispersed, returned to their respective seats, and got back to


    work.


    With a cup of coffee, Charlotte returned to her seat too. Despite looking calm on the outside, her heart


    was filled with astonishment.


    He''s never been away from thepany this long. Even if he goes overseas, he''de back in at


    most three or four days. But now, it''s been a week and he still hasn''t shown up...I guess he really must


    be spending time with Sharon.


    "I have some urgent documents here that need to be sent over to the Ashenville Garden Golf Course


    for Mr. Nacht''s signature," Lucy announced as she walked over with a document. "Dani, could you-"


    "I''m sorry, Ms. Wright. I''ve been having an upset stomach all day," Danielle replied hastily.


    "Ashenville Garden is too far from here. I''m worried I might cause a scene and make thepany look


    bad."


    "Then, you do it, Fran." Lucy turned to another secretary.


    "Did you forget, Ms. Wright? Zoey and I will be following Mr. Sterk to meet with the media," Fran said


    meekly.


    Lucy frowned as she scanned her surroundings. Finally, her eyes fell on Charlotte. "I guess you''re the


    only one who can do it, Charlotte."


    "Me?" Charlotte froze for a moment. "I don''t think I can manage."


    "We''ll go together." Lucy nced at her watch.


    "You''ll have to see more of the outside world sooner orter. You can''t keep staying at the reception


    desk, or you''ll be a good-for-nothing for life."


    "Okay. I understand." Charlotte sighed with relief upon hearing that Lucy would be going too. "When do


    we leave?"


    "Now. I''ll get the documents ready, and we''ll meet in front of the elevator in ten minutes."


    "Okay."


    Lucy drove to Ashenville Garden with Charlotte.


    On the way there, she asked thetter a question. "Mr. Nacht has eighteen secretaries, but everyone


    gets paid a different sry. Do you know why, Charlotte?"


    "No." Charlotte shook her head.


    "Do you know how much I earn each month?"


    "No" Charlotte gazed at her meekly.


    "A hundred and thirty grand."


    "What? That much?" Charlotte was visibly taken aback.
