Chapter 1117
On the journey home, Ben pretended to be relaxed and consoled Zachary, "Didn't Raina say that you're in good health? Looks like it was just a scare."
With his head lowered, Zachary didn't reply. Instead, he had a grim expression on his face.
"Where exactly do you feel the discomfort? Do you have a headache?" Ben was unsettled when he noticed Zachary's expression. "We should have gotten Dr. Felch to give you a check-up." Zachary remained silent.
Despite being worried, Ben didn't dare enquire further.
When they arrived home, Jamie was already asleep. Zachary came into his room and tucked him in. Then, he sat beside him and quietly watched.
"Robbie! Ellie!" Jamie mumbled in his sleep. "Mommy..."
Having just been separated, he had started to miss everyone else.
As Zachary stroked Jamie's head, a smile broke out on his face. He recalled how he confidently promised Jamie that he would bring Charlotte back and resolved to keep his word.
Jamie is right. We must move forward fearlessly no matter what we do. No matter the obstacles, I must press on and bring Charlotte and the children home.
If he turned out to be fine, it would be wonderful for the family to be reunited.
However, if something were to happen to him, the Nacht family would need someone to take over as stalwarts of the family.
With that thought in mind, Zachary felt reinvigorated.
That night, he didn't sleep well as he was waiting for Raina's report.
He suspected that there was likely something wrong with his brain.
Just as expected, someone knocked anxiously on his door at nine in the morning.
Zachary answered in a daze, "Come in!"
Ben rushed in. "Mr. Nacht, the report is out."
Zachary opened his eyes abruptly and sprang to his feet. Throwing his jacket on, he instructed, "Let her in."
"Yes." Ben hurried to get Raina.
Medical report in hand, Raina reported nervously, "The CT scan shows that there's something wrong with the nervous system in your brain. So far, it looks like a poison has permeated inside, causing the damage..."
"How did this happen?" Ben turned pale in shock.
"It was caused by poison?" Zachary was calm instead.
"Most likely so." Raina's expression was solemn. "We'll need a specialist to drill into the details. As I'm not a neurologist, I'm not qualified to make a definitive diagnosis."
"Continue." Zachary poured himself a glass of cold wine and sipped it calmly.
"This condition may impair the brain's nervous system. From there, it may cause you to lose the functions controlled by the nervous system..." "Such as my eyesight." Zachary finally understood.
"How did this happen? Why is he poisoned all of a sudden?" Ben was exasperated. "Can you replace out what kind of poison it is?"
"Unfortunately, I can't," Raina replied dejectedly. "I'm a gynecologist and surgeon. Hence, this is not my area of expertise. As of now, we need to gather the required specialists to replace a way to treat this." "What are you waiting for-"
"There's no need for that." Zachary waved his hand and calmly remarked, "You're dismissed."
"Mr. Nacht..."
"If the specialists were competent, I wouldn't need to painstakingly look for Dr. Felch to treat Ellie," Zachary plainly answered.
"In that case, we'll head to Erihal to see Dr. Felch then," Ben suggested at once. "I'll have the private jet prepared right away."
"Are you crazy?" Zachary snapped in displeasure. "Dr. Felch is treating Charlotte and Ellie now. If you bring him here, who is going to treat them?"
"But you..."
"It's fine. We still have two months. When we go and pick them up, we'll get Dr. Felch to return together with us," Zachary explained calmly. "I'll just have to bear with it for two months."
"Mr. Nacht, this is serious," Raina remonstrated. "If something happens to you, the Nacht Group will be finished."
"That's why this has to be kept a secret," Zachary reminded.
