Zachary put his phone aside and stared dead ahead in silence.
“Mr. Nacht, just take it easy! I’ll get in touch with them on your behalf!”
A few seconds after Ben tried calling Lupine, the woman on the other end of the call picked it up and asked in a
petulant manner, “What do you want?”
“It’s about to rain! Is Ms. Lindberg fine?”
“She’s currently sleeping soundly after finishing the sleep-inducing tea Dr. Felch has made her. Not even the end of
the world is capable of rousing her from sleep, let alone thunders. Has Mr. Nacht instructed you to check on her?”
Ben muttered in return, “Yes, he couldn’t reach her since she had blocked him. Therefore—”
“Ms. Lindberg is doing fine! Thanks for asking, but it won’t be necessary for you to call in the future!” Lupine hung
up the call shortly after wrapping up the conversation.
Ben turned around with a sheepish grin and asked, “Have you heard her?”

Afraid something bad might happen to the exhausted man, he asked, “Are you sure you’re fine? Shall I get
someone to tend to you?”
“Get out of my sight!”
In spite of being reprimanded, Ben felt a sense of relief since Zachary still have the strength to pick on others.
Zachary got himself undressed and thought of indulging in a bath after a hectic week, but his nose started itching.
The moment he tried scratching his nose, he opened his eyes when he felt something gushing out of it.
He brought himself out of the bathtub and started checking on himself in the mirror. Gosh, I am bleeding…
His mind was all over the place since he had never experienced anything of that sort.
He once pulled several nights of all-nighters during Divine Corporation’s initial public offering, but it wasn’t as
serious as such.
It’s undeniably the most stressful and exhausting time of my life, but this is too much! Is it so serious? Charlotte
experienced something similar when she was poisoned! Have I been poisoned as well?
Zachary’s eyes flickered in despair when he thought that he had been poisoned, but that wasn’t the case when he
recalled he hadn’t felt any pain apart from having blurred vision and a bleeding nose.
I have been pretty cautious all this while! The foods I consumed had been examined to ensure they were fine! In
short, I don’t think I have been poisoned!
When he lost himself in another train of thought, he heard his phone buzzing. Hence, he wrapped a towel around
his waist and brought himself out of the bathroom.
Shortly after he picked up his phone, he heard his daughter addressing him, “Daddy!”
“Ellie, what’s wrong? Are you not feeling well? Has something happened?”
“I can’t fall asleep because I miss you. How are you, Daddy? Have you sorted out the things on your end?” Ellie
sniffled and asked in a mellifluous tone.
“I’m fine, Ellie! You don’t have to worry!” Zachary couldn’t bear to share his actual condition with the heartwarming
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlittle girl on the other end of the call.
“Daddy, once I’m fine, are you going to take me home?”
“Of course, Ellie! I’ll take you home as soon as you’re fully recovered! As of now, just listen to Dr. Felch’s
instructions, okay?”
Sniffling, the little girl mentioned, “Alright, Daddy. Actually, I’m unwilling to leave Mommy, and Robbie is unwilling to
leave you. However, we have come to terms and made up our minds to send Robbie away with Mommy if worse
comes to worst. At the very least, Robbie can keep Mommy safe.”
After pausing for a short while, the little girl added, “Similarly, Jamie and I will return to you to stop you from trying
anything silly when Mommy’s not around. Can you not blame Robbie for being naughty? He loves you as much as
we do.”
Zachary answered with his voice quivering against his will, “I’ll never blame any of you! I’m well aware of the
concerns and the things we’re supposed to do!”
