Chapter 1452
Even Charlotte was surprised. She was aware that Zachary was nning the wedding, but the date
had yet to be decided. Therefore, she did not expect him to announce it at the board meeting.
We will be married next Monday, which is the seventeenth!
To her, it felt like a dream that was too good to be true.
After the meeting ended, Zachary escorted Charlotte downstairs. In the elevator, he hugged her and
whispered, “Get some rest when you''re home. Don''t overwork yourself in the kitchen.”
“I know.” She returned the embrace. “I''ll be waiting for you toe home.”
“Don''t worry. You won''t lose your husband.” Zachary kissed her on her forehead. “Be a good girl now.”
After Charlotte got into the car, Zachary stood at the entrance and waved at her with a smile. She, too,
waved back at him.
Even when the car drove off, she looked at him in the rearview mirror, feeling reluctant to part with him.
For some reason, she felt apprehensive that something terrible would happen to him, even though he
was just attending a banquet.
Holding that thought, she gave Ben a call. “Ben, you have to be extra vignt during tonight''s banquet.
Nothing can happen to him.”
“Don''t worry. I''ve got this,” Ben answered softly. “Now that we are in a crucial period, we will all be extra
careful.”
“That''s good.” Charlotte sighed in relief. “The main reason Zachary is attending the banquet is to return
his favor to Nancy. Once he has given her the present, he should return home without dy.”
“Understood.” After ending the call, Ben began to gather his men. Although Zachary would only be
attending the banquet for a short while, Ben still decided to bring more than ten bodyguards along.
With that, he was certain that he had all bases covered.
In the evening, Zachary arrived at South Sea Hotel as scheduled.
Ben was surprised that Nancy chose to hold the banquet at the Brown family''s hotel, where Zachary
was hurt by the vase thest time.
As the owner of the hotel, Michael was also invited to the banquet at the veryst minute.
“Ms. Gold sure is impressive,” Ben praised in a low voice. “In just a few days, the Gold and Brown
families have grown closer to each other. It looks like they''re about to form a partnership.”
“An excellent business person knows how to seize every opportunity avable.”
Zachary let out a faint smile.
Nancy is as shrewd as ever. Considering that the Brown family is growing in influence, they are a much
better partner than the declining Laurent family.
“All right. Ms. Gold is a shrewd businesswoman indeed,” Ben concurred.
“Mr. Nacht!”
At that moment, Nancy sauntered over with an amiable expression on her face.

It had been a while since theyst met, and it seemed like she had lost some weight.
That evening, she was d in a white mermaid dress that entuated her curvaceous figure.
Combined with her stunning features, she looked dignified and mesmerizing at the same time.
“Ms. Gold, congrattions!” Zachary shook hands with her in a polite yet distant manner.
“I thought you wouldn''t being tonight.” The look Nancy gave him was as affectionate as always.
“I''m happy that I can still meet you.”
Her remark made him chuckle. “You''re making it sound like I''ll no longer be alive tomorrow.”
“No, no, no. I''m not that doctor,” she frantically exined. “What I meant was... I still thought you hated
me. That''s why—”
“I owe you one, Ms. Gold, so how could I resent you?” Zachary interrupted before presenting her the
gift in a chivalrous manner. “I wish you sess in your first domestic project!”
“Thank you.” Nancy received the gift as if it was a priceless treasure. “Can I open it?”
“Of course.” He nodded with a smile.
Just when she was about to open the box, the spotlight suddenly shone on both of them.
On the heels of that, music started ying while the host spoke in Ustranasion. “Ladies and gentlemen,
let''s invite two of our guests of honor to lead the first dance!”
