Charlotte got out of the car and went to her villa after replying to Gigolo.
“Good night, Charlotte.” Louis saw her off reluctantly.
Charlotte waved him goodbye without looking back. She then whispered to Lupine, “See if Zachary’s
leaving Ashenville Garden.”
“Yes.” Lupine exited through the back door. At the same time, Zachary had changed into a new set of
clothes and left with Ben, Marino, and two bodyguards. They went with a servant’s car to stay away
from prying eyes.
“Should we retrieve the Pagani from Happy Avenue, Mr. Nacht?” Marino knew of all Zachary’s habits.
“No.” Zachary looked at the time. “A Pagani’s tire costs a bomb. A normal gigolo can’t afford that.”
“Oh, right.” Realization struck Marino.
“I thought I asked you to deal with that lady? There doesn’t seem to be any progress to me.” Zachary
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwas suddenly reminded of this matter.
“I, well, there wasn’t any opening tonight.” Marino’s face turned scarlet.
“It’s a bit hard for Marino, Mr. Nacht.” Ben tried to pacify his boss. “Marino’s been working for you since
he was thirteen, and it’s only been eight years since then. He has never dated a woman, so he knows
nothing about courting.”
“I see.” Zachary nodded. “It seems that I should have sent you instead. You’re more experienced than
he is since you know your way around Sultry Night thanks to me.”
“What?” Ben was shocked. He didn’t expect to land himself in trouble just because he helped Marino
out.
“Hmm. Alright, I’ve decided…” Zachary pointed at Ben and commanded, “Lupine’s yours.” He then
turned to Marino. “And you’ll deal with Morgan.”
“I—” Marino was panicking, but he didn’t dare to object.
“But Lupine’s one cold, grumpy, and arrogant b*tch. She’s unreasonable and gets on my nerves every
time. You can’t be serious, Mr. Nacht.” Ben was almost begging. “Please don’t push this onto me.”
“She gets on your nerves because she wants you to like her, get it?” Zachary gave him a tip.
But Ben couldn’t accept it. “That can’t be.”
“If I say she does it because she likes you, then that’s the truth.” Zachary didn’t back down. “Are you
defying my orders?”
“No.” Ben had no choice but to take the mission. Marino gave him a look of pity, and he returned it.
Both men had a look of hopelessness on their faces.
At the same time, Charlotte had changed and was about to get into her car when Lupine came bearing
news. “Zachary has left, but not in his Rolls-Royce. He’s using his subordinate’s Benz. Here’s the
plate.” She handed her phone to Charlotte.
Charlotte took a look and memorized the plate number. She was going to see if Zachary was Gigolo
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat night. He’s dead if he is.
After putting a mask on, Zachary went into Sultry Night. As usual, it was packed, and the crowd was
rowdy. He hated it, but he put up with it because he could see Charlotte soon.
Zachary looked at the time and realized he was ten minutes early, so he went to his room to see if
there was anything on him that would give him away. The first thing he noticed was the wound on his
neck.
She must have noticed this by now, but she didn’t suspect a thing because she trusts Gigolo. But if that
trust is lost, there’s going to be a world of trouble waiting for me…
Zachary took a dagger out and made a few more scratches on his wound.
“What are you doing, Mr. Nacht?” Ben was surprised.
“Shut up and give me the medical kit,” Zachary commanded.
“Yes sir.” Ben hastily got the medical kit and took out the bandage and hemostatic dressing to stop the
bleeding.
Zachary made the bite mark on his neck look like a slash mark. Since it was still fresh, he had to stop
its bleeding and get it bandaged.
