Charlotte held a strong grudge against Henry since he was the one who had forced Zachary into submission and
drove her apart from her children.
Had that not been the case, she wouldn’t have been humiliated by others. At the same time, her daughter wouldn’t
have been poisoned, had Henry not fallen for Cynthia’s words.
To make things worse, he continued siding with Zara and indirectly caused Zachary to point a gun at Charlotte. In
short, he was the one bringing upon his own undoing.
Therefore, he couldn’t blame others for his miserable life since those were the consequences of his decisions. He
was about to pass on shortly after taking out his daughter.
With that being said, Charlotte’s mind was all over the place when her children started weeping.
At the end of the day, as vicious as he might be, he had always been the three little ones’ beloved great
grandfather. Therefore, they shared great affection for him as well.

Truth be told, Henry couldn’t see those around him due to his blurred vision. Charlotte was merely just another
silhouette in front of him.
He tried to open his mouth as if he had something to tell her, but none of them could hear him.
Zachary showed Charlotte the way to his grandfather. He leaned over and asked, “Grandpa, are you trying to say
something?”
Henry narrowed his eyes to a slit and enunciated with all his might, “I-I am sorry.”
Torrents of regret streamed down his cheeks as soon as he expressed his utmost apology towards Charlotte.
Similarly, Charlotte felt overwhelmed when she saw the dying man’s tears. She stopped holding a grudge against
him when she found out his dying wish was to beg for her forgiveness.
He might have reflected upon his actions and found out he was the one at fault during his final days.
The man, who had never begged for others’ forgiveness throughout his life, expressed his utmost apologies for the
things he did at the last moment of his life since he truly regretted his decisions.
Meanwhile, Charlotte remained silent throughout the session and looked at Henry in the eyes. Truth be told, she
was just afraid of letting loose of her emotions.
“I-I am so sorry.”
Shortly after he repeated himself for one last time, Henry closed his eyes and thought it was finally time for him to
leave everything behind in the mundane world.
He had never expected Charlotte would forgive him. Nonetheless, he felt the need to make himself clear prior to
leaving the world. It was just one of his attempts to make peace with himself.
Holding Henry’s hand, Zachary yelled, “Grandpa! Stay with me, Grandpa! I’ll go get the doctor at once!”
Zachary rushed out of the ward and yelled, “Doctor! Get me the doctor!”
The doctor rushed into the ward to check on Henry, but there wasn’t anything they could do to turn the tables.
“My deepest condolences, Mr. Nacht! He has already passed on!”

Charlotte stepped aside and had her eyes glued to the ones around Henry.
Zachary lowered his head as he stood next to Henry, weeping as he held his grandfather’s hands for one last time.
Her children, including the most level-headed Robbie, surrounded their great-grandfather and bawled their eyes
out.
Spencer leaned against the wheelchair and started weeping in silence. He just couldn’t take it because the mainstay
of his life had passed on.
Bruce, Ben, Cain, and Kyle, who were next to the rest, couldn’t resist the urge to weep as well.
Charlotte was the only one who was calm and collected. Staring at the late Henry on the bed, she thought it was
about time to move on.
The grudges she held against him seemed to have passed on along with Henry to the realm of the afterlife.
When she recalled Zara, Henry, and Cynthia were dead while Sharon had been thrown behind bars, she thought
she had finally achieved her goals.
