Chapter 709
“Hahaha, you'd need to be a lot more powerful to get to me,” replied Charlotte as she got into the car. She later
rolled the window down and leaned lazily against the backrest before saying, “By the way, thank you for your help
today.”
“Oh? Seems like you finally found your conscience,” joked Zachary. He shifted his gaze to her wrist and noted that it
had only been dealt with hastily. He reminded, “Remember to disinfect your cut or you'll get an infection.”
“I got it,” replied Charlotte. She smiled and showed him her hand before saying, “I won't let my hand get hurt
because I still need it to crush you.”
“Good!” commented Zachary. He grinned mildly before he turned around and got into the car.
The two cars drove away at the same time and were side-by-side at the gate.
Marino and Morgan glared at one another before they accelerated at the same time.
In the back seat, Zachary and Charlotte grinned at one another. They rolled the window up simultaneously as if
they could read each other’s minds. We'll see each other again soon, was what they murmured to themselves.
It was half-past three in the morning when Zachary reached Serene Hospital.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe hopped out of the car and immediately saw Spencer waiting by the entrance.
“Spencer, what are you doing here at this hour?” asked Ben in a concerned tone.
“Ms. Blackwood got into an accident and she's still in the emergency room. Mr. Nacht is worried sick, so naturally, I
have to follow him over,” answered Spencer before he continued, “Mr. Blackwood is on a private jet and is rushing
back to the country right now. His plane is estimated to touch down at dawn.”
“How did she suddenly get into an accident?” interrogated Zachary with a frown. “Did our people drive her home?”
“No, the Blackwoods' bodyguard did,” answered Spencer.
“Where is the driver now?” asked Zachary.
“He's in surgery as well,” said Spencer grimly. “His wounds are worse than Ms. Blackwood's.”
“Can you tell me more about the car that hit theirs?” asked Zachary as they walked into the hospital.
“We're not sure yet. The police are investigating the matter now, but the culprit escaped immediately after the
accident.”
Everyone rushed to the emergency room. They saw Henry sitting in his wheelchair and nodding off from
exhaustion.
Zachary took off his coat and walked over to Henry to drape his coat over him.
That woke Henry up. When he saw that it was Zachary, the former frowned and demanded, “What took you so
long?”
“I had to rush over from Ashenville Garden, so it took me some time to reach here,” said Zachary. “Go home and
rest. I will deal with everything here.”
“I want to wait,” replied Henry grimly. “Cynthia had been taking care of me for the past two years. She is a kind and
sweet girl. Now that she is in trouble now, and her dad is not here with her, we can't leave her on her own.”
“I understand.” Zachary nodded.
Cynthia was an expert in the medical field. Over the past two years, she had been taking care of Henry and had
given him a lot of acupuncture treatments. That was why Henry had remained healthy. When Ellie fell ill, Cynthia
spared no effort taking care of the kid as well.
Hence, Zachary was appreciative of Cynthia even if he was not romantically attracted to her.
“I'm glad that you understand. Humans should have basic decencies,” said Henry before he sighed deeply.
“Go home and rest. I'll call you once I receive the news.”
After saying his piece, Zachary waved at Spencer.
The latter quickly headed over to push Henry's wheelchair, leaving with the elder man.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZachary sat outside the emergency room and waited.
Ben, on the other hand, went to learn more about the matter. He returned soon after to report, “The police are still
investigating the matter, but they learned that the culprit intentionally hit Ms. Blackwood's car and caused it to flip.”
“Tell them to get to the bottom of it all as quickly as possible. Report to me when you hear any news.”
“I've already informed them of that.”
Just then, the door to the emergency room was flung open. The doctor exited and said, “The patient is no longer in
danger.”
“That's good to know,” said Zachary before he sighed a breath of relief. He turned to Ben and instructed, “Stay
here with her. I'll go look for my grandpa.”
“Understood.”
Henry was relieved when he heard the news from Zachary.
At first, Zachary wanted to take Henry home, so the latter could rest. However, Henry insisted that Zachary stay in
the hospital to take care of Cynthia.
Zachary couldn't talk some sense into Henry, so the former had no choice but to stay. Still, he had Ben take
everyone home.
Taylor arrived at the hospital a little after Henry left. The former ran the entire way to the emergency room and
was only relieved after hearing that his daughter's life was no longer hanging on the balance.
