Chapter 889
Zachary's expression shifted instantly. He had always known that Danrique would show up eventually...
But I didn't expect that to happen so soon.
Zachary definitely didn't expect the guy to attack so aggressively that he disoriented Zachary.
What a f*cking “nice” gift! That j*rk!
“Mr. Nacht, are you there?” asked Bruce from the other end of the line. His words disrupted Zachary's train of
thoughts.
“Is there something else?” asked Zachary while frowning.
“Mr. Blackwood called this morning and offered to talk to the media with Ms. Cynthia. That would help make you
and the Nacht family look better. He asked to know what your opinion on the matter is.”
“I have to head over to the office now,” answered Zachary as he checked his watch and added, “I can spare an
hour to see them today.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Understood. I'll relay the message. Oh, and Ms. Nacht is being chased by the police for the time being, so she
probably won't do anything reckless for now. You can focus on dealing with the other crises,” informed Bruce.
“Okay,” replied Zachary before he hung up. He stood up to leave, but he suddenly heard a raspy voice. “Hey...”
Zachary stiffened a little. He turned around and saw that Henry had woken up.
The latter was too weak, so his voice too soft to be discernible.
Zachary hurried over to listen closely. “What is it, Grandpa?”
“I said to slow down. D-don't worry. I am here for you,” replied Henry in bits and pieces after he parted his lips.
It was a piece of simple advice, but that was what Henry had said to Zachary all those years ago when the latter
was just a kid.
When Zachary was young, he had always been eager and would rush into things.
That was when Henry would scold Zachary. “Slow down. How are you going to accomplish anything if you rush all
the time? Solve your issues slowly and don't worry. I am here for you. I will shoulder the sky for you even if it were
to crumble on you.”
Zachary had always hated it when he heard Henry saying that as he felt that the old man was just bragging.
Yet, at that moment...
The aging and weak Henry said those words once again.
That touched Zachary's heart and got him all teary.
However, he didn't want Henry to see that, so he quickly readjusted his expression. Zachary was pretending to be
proud and annoyed when he said, “Got it. Geez, you're already on the hospital bed, so stop showing off.”
“P-punk!” scolded Henry. Unfortunately, he was too sick to sound powerful.
“I have to go now. Rest up and heal well. The kids are waiting for you to go home,” replied Zachary as he held the
old chap's hand.
Henry nodded obediently after hearing those words. He wanted to go home soon too because he missed his great-
grandchildren.
Zachary went to another room to change his clothes right away.
“The car is ready, Mr. Nacht. Are we heading over to the office?” asked Ben as he rushed over.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Yeah,” answered Zachary as he buttoned up while walking over to the elevator. He added, “Send the message
along and tell everyone that the company will be having a press conference this afternoon at five.”
“This afternoon?” blurted Ben in surprise, “But we haven't solved anything...”
“That is why we must deal with everything before five o'clock. Have Bruce call Taylor and Cynthia. Ask them to
meet me at my office at three,” instructed Zachary, who was still checking his watch.
“Understood,” replied Ben before he rushed to deal with the matters.
Zachary had never allowed himself to slack off.
It was eight in the morning at that time. He only gave himself ten hours to solve every issue and settle the matter
with the public.
I must deal with this first wave of attack skillfully or I won't be able to keep fighting against that guy.
Zachary had just gotten into the car before he received a call from Sharon. He frowned while picking it up.
“Zachary, save me. The Lindberg family is coming after me and...,” yelled Sharon fearfully.
The line was cut off before she finished her sentence.
Zachary's expression changed once more. Danrique really is powerful. He managed to disorient me and find
Sharon all in one go...
