Chapter 1313


    After Zachary signed thest document, he drawled, “Go.”


    “Yes.” Ben quickly did as told.


    Right then, Bruce showed up and announced excitedly, “Ms. Lindberg has moved into Northridge.


    Morgan arrived first with the kids and had been busy ever since. Ms. Lindberg is on the way there.”


    “Mm.” Zachary promptly rxed at the news. His tone turned gentle as he said, “The kids told mest


    night that they''ll be spending the night there today. Tell Marino to give them a ride there.”


    “Yes, I''ve informed Marino about that.” Sensing Zachary''s delight, Bruce beamed and asked, “Should


    you head back home earlier today to keep Ms. Lindbergpany—”


    “No need,” Zachary interjected, his expression turning downcast. “We''ve agreed to stay out of each


    other''s way.”


    “Then...”


    “Head over to check the vi,” Zachary instructed. “It has been empty for a few months, so some pests


    might''ve built their nest there. There might also be some wild animals


    or something inside. The women are afraid of stuff like that, so bring some men along to deal with that.


    See if they need any help.”


    “Got it, I''ll get to it right away!” Bruce replied and got to work immediately.


    After he disappeared out of sight, Ben led Robert and his subordinates in. Robert boomed out from


    afar, “Zachary, it''s hard to meet you in person!”


    “Why didn''t you inform me prior to your arrival, Sir Robert? I could’ve picked you up from the airport.”


    Zachary rose to his feet and greeted the old man. “What a surprise to see you in mypany!”


    Robert threw his head back and guffawed out loud. “I decided to visit on a whim. Sorry for the sudden


    visit.”


    “It''s fine. Have a seat,” Zachary answered politely.


    Lucy and the other two secretaries busied themselves with preparing coffee and snacks for the guests.


    Ben and Robert''s subordinates stood behind their respective employers.


    “Zachary, I didn’t get to give you a warm wee in Pillere back then. This time, I brought something


    amazing for you,” said Robert.


    He gestured for his subordinates to ce two intricate silver boxes on the desk before he opened them


    carefully.


    Expensive jewelry appeared in everyone''s sight. The jewelry seemed to be antiques, even to the naked


    eye.


    “These are left behind by a royal princess, and my wife adores them. She kept them locked up and had


    never worn them, but now, she wants me to give them to you as a token of her apology,” Robert


    revealed, trying to butter up to him.


    He added, “The jewelry had been auctioned off for over three hundred million twenty years ago, so

    their value must''ve increased by now. Most importantly, there''s a legend saying whoever wears them


    will be blissfully happy in love!”


    “Oh, three hundred million. That''s an exorbitant amount, even by today''s standards,” drawled Zachary


    as he nced at the jewelry. Calmly, he continued, “As a man, I''m not interested in jewelry. I can''t


    appreciate your gift, Sir Robert.” “You can gift them to your future wife,” Robert suggested gleefully.


    “Then hand them down to your daughters. I promise they''ll love this!” “Right,” Zachary mused with a


    nod. “Thank you, then!”


    “You''re wee.” Robert was thrilled that his gift had been epted. “Zachary, I''m here to...”


    He trailed off as Lucy showed up with coffee and snacks.


    “The coffee here might not be as good as yours,” Zachary stated politely. “Have a sip. If it''s not good,


    allow me to offer you a stiff drink.”


    Robert merelyughed. “Zachary, you''re hrious.”


    He took one sip of the coffee and nced around.


    Knowing what he wanted, Zachary dismissed Lucy and the secretaries with a wave.
