q“In that case, can he really be—”
Kallum could sense the doubt growing. “That seems unlikely. Even if he has gone through plastic surgery, there's no
way he can look exactly the same, not to mention he sounds the same too.”
Spencer shot Kallum a glare but didn't say a word.
Subsequently, Johann pulled Spencer aside to discuss the situation.
Meanwhile, many of the other directors felt unsettled and began gossiping amongst themselves.
“I don't understand what the situation is. Despite having divorced Mr. Nacht, Ms. Lindberg insists on getting her
stake in Nacht Group. In the future, will the company be controlled by the Lindbergs?”
“Unfortunately, it will either be the Lindbergs or the Golds. Nacht Group is finished.”
“No matter what, I'm not optimistic at all.”
“What should we do then?”
“What can we do? Our combined stake is less than ten percent. Hence, we have no right to say anything. Our only
option is to resign ourselves to fate.”

the two of them.”
“You're right. They have yet to be compromised.”
“Given that Mr. Nacht himself is compromised, how can we be sure both of them aren't?”
“Well...”
“Forget it. We'll just have to take it one step at a time.”
Feeling uneasy, many in the conference room began to speculate.
Meanwhile, Lupine rushed back into the room, holding her phone.
“Any news?” Charlotte asked anxiously.
“They almost rescued him, but he was moved again.” Lupine let out a sigh. “Also, Gordon was hurt during the
mission.”
“How did that happen?” Charlotte was filled with desperation.
“Given that Robbie is Jesse's trump card, he would definitely not let him escape easily. In fact, Jesse has even
increased the security around him. Now that we have lost track of where they have taken Robbie, we will need to
start investigating from scratch.”
Lupine's expression was grim.
“Get them to take care of those who are injured first,” Charlotte calmly replied.
“I already told them that.” Lupine nodded. “Gordon was careless due to his exhaustion. After all, he had spent the
last ten days tracking them down and barely slept. Nevertheless, Bruce mentioned that his injuries weren't serious.
Therefore, he will be fine.”
“Alright.” Despite feeling her heart sink, Charlotte put up a strong front. “Tell them that their safety comes first in
their quest to locate Robbie.”
“Yes, I will!”
Looking out at the drizzle outside the window, Charlotte's worries weighed on her.
Even though she had won a decisive victory in the boardroom, her hands were still tied due to Robbie being held
hostage by Jesse.
Therefore, even if she got the shares today, she might have to cough them back out tomorrow.
No, I can't just sit idly by.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt that moment, the conference fell silent when someone shouted, “Mr. Nacht is back!”
Turning around, Charlotte saw Chris, Jean, and their subordinates swagger back into the room. Evidently, they were
more arrogant than before.
“So, have you decided?” Johann asked.
“I have,” Chris replied resolutely. “I'll give her a twenty percent stake in Nacht Group.”
“Alright.” Johann smiled slightly. “It looks like you still have some smarts.”
Even though Johann didn't elaborate, everyone present knew that Divine Corporation was crucial to Nacht Group's
operations even though its market capitalization wasn't that high.
After all, in the information age, Divine Corporation's IT products were at the forefront of the industry. As long as
they still had control of the company, they could restructure and sell it for ten-fold its current price.
“Since it has been decided, let's complete the transaction at once,” Spencer declared.
“All right.” The legal team and accounting department got to work right away.
Sitting with his leg crossed, Chris took a sip of his coffee. The panic he felt earlier was now replaced with victorious
confidence.
From his expression, Charlotte was cognizant that Jesse must have come up with another diabolical plan that
involved Robbie.
