Chapter 762
Mistaking a Magnate for a Male Escort
âThereâs a clinic in the building at the back,â Zachary cut her off with a cold glare. âYou could have taken her there.â
âIâm sorry, sir.â Raina bowed her head, not daring to say anything else.
âWhatâs the issue here?â Henryâs voice piped up from behind. âYouâre going to wake our guest up. If you have something to say, say it in the study room.â
Zachary was feeling angrier by the second, but he still followed Henry to the study room.
Raina, on the other hand, was feeling nervous, but Ben gestured to her that she didnât need to worry.
Once they reached the study room, Zachary asked angrily, âI thought we agreed to leave her in the building in the back! I donât mind that you brought her here to help, but she doesnât have to live here.
Not in that room.â
âYou agreed that you would spend time with her, so why did you leave early?â Henry asked instead.
âThatâs completely unrelated!â Zachary said in anger.
âSince you can do whatever you want, I can too,â Henry said matter-of-factly. âThat room has the best conditions for Cynthia to get better.â
âThis is my house,â Zachary blurted out.
âAs if you would have this house without me,â Henry said with a raised eyebrow. His pride was coming to the forefront again.
âYouâre just being unreasonable now.â Zachary was enraged, but he was trying his best to control it. âI keep trying to close an eye, but you keep pushing things.â
âCynthia saved Ellieâs life. The Nacht family owes her that,â Henry said. âIt doesnât seem right for you to complain so much now that sheâs heavily injured and is recovering at our house.â
âItâs not like Iâm asking her to leave. I just donât think she should use that room.â
âSheâs in it already. What are you going to do about it?â Henry started in an almost cheeky manner.
âYou-â Zachary couldnât finish his sentence in his anger.
âPlease calm down, Mr. Zachary,â Spencer piped up hurriedly, trying to mediate things. âMr. Nacht wasnât planning to put her in that room at first, but Ms. Cynthia started having breathing difficulties once she reached and needed oxygen at once. The building at the back wasnât ready yet, so we decided to place her in the guest room for the time being.â
âThereâs no need to explain anything to him,â Mr. Nacht said in anger. âItâs just a room, for Godâs sake!
Rooms are made for staying in! Are you going to withhold even that from me?â
âPlease calm down, Mr. Nacht-â
âZachary, this is the last time Iâm telling you this,â Henry thundered. âI gave you everything you own now. Without me, youâre worth nothing. If you dare act so recklessly again, Iâm going to give Chris all the shares to the Nacht Group. If that happens, Danrique will be able to get rid of you as easily as an ant.â
âAre you threatening me right now?â Zachary said with a darkening expression. His gaze became cold.
âDo you really think I need you to make a living?â
âYou can try.â Henry jabbed a finger at him fiercely.
âAlright then-â
âPlease calm down, Mr. Nacht.â Ben quickly stopped Zachary from saying something he would regret.
At the same time, Spencer also advised, âMr. Henry, please calm down. Heâs still young.â
âYoung? Heâs already thirty!â Henry roared. âThe only younglings here are those three great-
grandchildren of mine. Heâs stuck in the past for some selfish reason and never thinks about his own kidsâ futures!â
âWhoâs the selfish one here? If you werenât selfish from the start, would our family turn out like this?â
âHow dare you!â
âPlease keep your voices down, or the kids will wake up,â Spencer hurriedly said. He then indicated for Ben to pull Zachary out of the room.
However, Ben couldnât calm Zachary down enough to do that.
Without a choice, Spencer ended up pushing Henryâs wheelchair out. âYouâre too old to be quarreling with youngsters, Mr. Nacht. If the kids saw you, theyâd start talking again.â
