For the last sentence, he was almost whispering, and the others could barely catch what he said, except Zachary.
He looked at Henry in bafflement. Put it to an end? How to end it?
“Let me tell you one more thing.” Henry gazed at Zara in dejection. “I have actually kept a large sum of money for
Chris. It is more than enough for you to lead a free and easy life. Nevertheless, you insist on digging your own
grave!”
“Stop nagging and save me immediately!” Zara shrieked impatiently. She had apparently forgotten about how she
had held her father as a hostage a while ago. Not to mention, she was even exploiting him as her shield against the
gunshot!
“Time’s up!” Charlotte lost her patience and prepared to fire.
At the same time, the siren sounded from a distance away.
Lupine lowered her voice and reminded Charlotte, “Ms. Lindberg, quite a number of police cars are advancing
toward us. I’m afraid…”
Before Lupine could finish her words, Charlotte snapped at her, “I don’t care, and I can barely wait to finish her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtoff!”
Bang! Bang! Bang! All of a sudden, there was a series of ear-piercing gunshots. It seemed someone had finished
firing the bullets in the barrel.
Everyone was astounded and gaped at Henry, who had shot his own daughter to death by himself!
Thud! The gun slipped off from his trembling hand. Emotionally shaken, he slumped onto the floor. He lowered his
head as tears of remorse flowed down his wrinkled face like streams.
“Grandpa…” Zachary crouched down beside him to help him up.
Charlotte could barely move in utter astonishment. Her mind turned mushy as she looked at a grief-shaken Henry
and Zara’s lifeless body. As a wave of indecipherable complex emotions crashed into her heart, she was at a loss
for words.
She had sought revenge in a way, yet the feeling was kind of different as she did not end the woman’s life in her
own hands. Nevertheless, she could not reprimand Henry for doing so. She was even starting to sympathize with
him in such a pathetic state.
No way! I can’t let anyone take advantage of my kindness anymore! When Charlotte recomposed herself, she told
herself not to relent again.
“Hands up and don’t move!” The policemen reached and took prompt action, putting the tense situation to an end.
It had been pouring the whole night. By the time Charlotte reached home, it was already dawn.
Everyone was petrified when she stepped into the house with her clothes drenched in blood.
Dr. Felch took out the bullet for her and attended to her wound at once. “You need a good rest,” he advised.
Mrs. Rawlston asked warily, “Ms. Lindberg, how about Mr. Zachary and Mr. Nacht? Did anything happen to them?”
“I will assign people to send you home,” Charlotte told her gently without replying to her question.
“All right, Ms. Lindberg. Thank you.” Mrs. Rawlston nodded and thanked her sincerely.
Without hesitation, Lupine assigned a few bodyguards to send Mrs. Rawlston and a few maids from the Nacht
residence back.
Leaning against the recliner in the room, Charlotte’s heart sank as another wave of mixed emotions swept over
her.
The throbbing pain on her shoulder was as though indicating that both Zachary and her would never be able to let
bygones be bygones. It seems impossible for us to mend our relationship and stop dwelling on the past.

with the Nacht family. We are still not sure if Mr. Henry will be charged for murdering his daughter.”
“That’s none of our business. Get Sharon Blackwood here now,” Charlotte instructed in an icy-cold tone.
“Noted, Ms. Lindberg.” Morgan nodded respectfully and prepared to carry out the task as instructed.
Charlotte looked at the gun in her hand with a hint of unmissable murderous intent in her eyes. Now, there is only
Sharon Blackwood left. I must seek her out for payback as soon as possible and leave this horrible place forever!
The next moment, Lupine dashed into the room and updated her hastily. “Ms. Lindberg, Sharon Blackwood was
taken away by the police.”
Morgan was stunned. “How could it be? I’m about to capture her and bring her here!”
“The Nacht family seems to have foreseen this and taken the first move. Mr. Nacht had handed her over to the
police before he rushed over to rescue Mr. Henry,” Lupine explained further.
Charlotte knitted her brows without uttering any words.
Right that instant, Morgan’s phone buzzed. The moment she caught a glimpse of the name blinking on the screen,
she handed it to charlotte. “Ms. Lindberg, it’s a call from Mr. Lindberg.”
Charlotte answered the call instantaneously and greeted, “Danrique!”
“Come back to Erihal now and marry Louis,” Danrique instructed her resolutely.
