Chapter 1499
After rushing for a while, Charlotte finally found the ward.
The closer she was to it, the faster her heart rate became. Toward the end, she was almost sprinting
into the room.
As soon as she flung the door open and caught sight of the frail man sleeping in the bed, her heart
skipped a beat.
It''s him! It''s really him! He''s still alive!
Unable to contain her excitement, she ran over and hugged him tightly. “I thought I would never see
you again...”
The man on the bed opened his eyes slowly as if he was feeling suffocated by Charlotte''s tight
embrace or because he had sensed something.
“Hubby...” Charlotte cupped his cheeks and eximed, “Thank goodness that you''re still alive! Thank
heavens!”
The man stared at Charlotte, dazed for a moment before a gentle look crossed his eyes.
As if he was mustering all of his strength, he raised his arms slowly and hugged Charlotte back.
“Everything''s fine now.” Charlotte kissed his forehead, her sorrow reced by joy. “Let''s go home!”
As she spoke, she was about to instruct Lupine to handle the paperwork so that they could transfer him
to another hospital when a group of police officers entered.
One of them said to Charlotte sternly, “Are you Charlotte Lindberg? Please follow us to the police
station to assist with our investigation.”
“What do you mean by that?” Lupine immediately stepped forward to enquire about the situation.
“We''ve received an anonymous tip-off which used you ofmitting arson to kill Mr. Nacht.” The
police''s attitude was solemn. “They provided evidence which proved that you''re rted to the fire at the
Nacht residence in Southridge. Please follow us back to aid with the investigation.”
“How is that possible?” Morgan bellowed. “Mr. Nacht is Ms. Lindberg’s husband. How can she possibly
harm him? What kind of logic is this?”
“Yeah!” Lupine concurred. “This anonymous person must be framing her on purpose!” she then spat.
“We''ll only find out after an investigation,” insisted the police sternly. “She''s just being asked to assist
us in the investigation, not being charged for the crime. If you keep interfering, it''ll mean that you''re
guilty.”
“What are you talking about?” Morgan lost her temper. “What’s your badge number? I’m going to file a
“I’m just doing my job.”

“You-” “Morgan!” Charlotte shouted.
With that, Morgan had no choice but to keep quiet and retreat to the back. However, she was still
ring at the policeman with fury zing in her eyes.
“Sir, as a good citizen, I''ll definitely assist the police with the investigation.” Charlotte walked over and
asked politely, “However, I need to bring my husband home first. Can I go to the police stationter?”
“No, you muste with us right now.” As if he had expected Charlotte to say that, the police officer
refused directly. “Since we haven’t figured out what''s going on, we don''t know if Mr. Nacht will be safe
with you.”
“You...” Even Charlotte became furious. Just when she was about to fly into a rage, a haughty voice
sounded. “This is a hospital. Please do not disturb the patient''s rest.”
Charlotte looked up and saw Nancy rushing over with her subordinates. “Ms. Lindberg, I think you
should cooperate with the police and stop disturbing the other patients here,” thetter exhorted.
Immediately after she spoke, she spotted the man on the bed and froze. A beatter, she eximed,
“It''s really you, Mr. Nacht!”
Paying no heed to those present, she ran over and hugged Zachary.
“Hey, you...”
Just when Morgan was about tosh out at her, Zachary raised his arms slowly and pushed Nancy
away.
In a feeble voice, he said to the police officer, “Sir, I think you''re mistaken. Charlotte’s my wife; she’ll
never hurt me.”
Staring at him, Charlotte grew emotional.
His voice and tone are identical to Zachary''s. Furthermore, he''s defending me. He''s definitely my
husband!
