Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby novel Chapter 1456

Michael pleaded, “Mr. Nacht, I know Helena is guilty, but she didn't do any real damage this time. I beg you to let her go this one time. I swear that I will take her back to M Nation, and she will never set foot in H City ever again.”

“No real damage?” The word struck a nerve with Ben. “Do you know that vase almost—”

“I know, I know.” Michael sounded apologetic. “Mr. Nacht is a distinguished person, and if anything were to happen to him, it would set off a chain reaction. I'm sure his injury must have caused a massive impact. Therefore, the Brown family will bear responsibility for all of the consequences. All I ask of you is to let Helena go this one time.”

“Bear responsibility? Can you even afford it?”

Ben was livid. Nonetheless, he understood that Michael assumed

Zachary's injury from being hit by the vase was nothing serious. Since the wound had healed, Michael must have believed that the issue could be solved without the cost of Helena's life.

Little did he know that the vase almost took Zachary's life.

If not for the wound, they would have a lot more time to locate Francesco, and Zachary's life would not be hanging by a thread.

“Mr. Nacht, I—"

“Ms. Gold!”

At that moment, Nancy had regained her consciousness. Rubbing her head, she settled down on the sofa. When she saw the situation before her, she quickly understood what had transpired. “It looks like the plan worked. We finally caught the perpetrator.”

“Thank you for helping me with the act.” Zachary took off his jacket and draped it over her. “You should leave now; I'll take care of the rest.” “All right.” Wearing his jacket, she stood up with the help of her subordinate. After giving Helena a cold hard glance, she suggested to Zachary, “This person has attacked you, knocked me unconscious, and even conspired to harm us. You can't let her off lightly.”

“Don't worry,” he acknowledged.

When Nancy walked past Michael on her way out, her eyes met with his dark ones, and she stopped in her tracks and remarked, “Mr. Brown, don't hold it against me. All I wanted to do was to lure the perpetrator out.”

“Is that why you approached me and organized the banquet at my hotel?” He glared at her. “You used me!”

“As if you aren't in the wrong for helping a criminal.” Nancy raised her chin. With a righteous tone, she said, “If I hadn't cooperated with Mr. Nacht to put on this show, we wouldn't have caught the mastermind. Who knows what

devastating consequences could have awaited us in the future.”

“You...” Despite his outrage, Michael still had his reason. “It's not wrong for you to lure the mastermind out, but why can't you let me know in advance? I wouldn't protect her if I knew the truth.”
