Her Mysterious Mogul Hubby novel Chapter 1647

“Where are you?” Jesse asked abruptly.

Chris scowled. He did not enjoy having his movements being controlled to such a degree. “What is it?”

“Come over at once,” Jesse ordered. “We have some matters to discuss.”

“If this is about the marriage, forget it,” Chris retorted flatly. “You’ve seen how opposed your daughter was to the idea. You should hear the things she said to me.”

“You will find her more agreeable,” Jesse assured him. “I've managed to convince her.”

“Fine. I'll drop by tonight.”

Chris knew that the time was not yet ripe to offend Jesse as he still needed the latter's help to handle matters over at Nacht Group.

He recalled back in his youth when his mother had always pushed him to study business in the hopes that he, Chris, would be a highly accomplished businessman like Zachary. Chris had always been resistant to that idea as he found the subject dull.

I should have listened to her. Due to my lack of expertise in business, I'm currently forced to rely on somebody else's and have become their pawn in my own quest. If I knew how to do business, I would have been able to exact my vengeance and take down Nacht Group on my own.

“Mr. Nacht,” the superintendent said, interrupting Chris' reverie. “The result is out.”

“Let me see.” Chris snatched the report and squinted at it. “What does it mean?”

“Everything in your blood is normal, sir,” replied the superintendent with a smile. “You haven't been poisoned!” “Not poisoned?” he repeated, sounding uncertain.

Could it be that Charlotte had lied to me? Jesse did not poison me afier all?

“That's right, sir. Everything appears to be normal.”

“Are you sure?” Chris demanded, still feeling uneasy.

The superintendent nodded. “Yes, sir. There is almost an impossible margin for error for this test. If it would appease you, we can conduct the test again just to be safe.” “There's no need for that.”
