The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 919: Chapter 919: The Day of the Medical Competition

The next day, the books related to medical studies that Nathalie Quinlan ordered were delivered to the Rhine apartment.

The following week, Nathalie Quinlan was basically holed up in her room, and even Alfred Garland didn’t know what she was doing in there or whether she was seriously reading.

However, the Chinese Medicine department made several calls.

Sometimes it was Winston Sullivan, sometimes Mr. Avalon, all trying to get in touch with Nathalie but couldn’t, and through several indirect connections, they tried to get Amadeus Yancey’s phone number, calling his phone to ask if there was a need to hurry and give Nathalie special coaching to catch up on the knowledge related to medical competitions...

Nevertheless, all those calls offering Nathalie tutoring, Amadeus Yancey turned them all down.

Even Candice Yancey called to inquire about this matter, and he brushed her off as well.

Seeing him and Nathalie each being more indifferent than the other, Alfred Garland didn’t dare to speak out of turn and could only feel anxious on the side.

...

The matter of Nathalie Quinlan starting her freshman year and already participating in an important medical competition stirred up quite a buzz, not to mention Zayn Fisher, Ghania Quinlan and Caryn Zachmann hearing this news.

Even many people around Govert Griffin were asking him about the authenticity of this matter.

In the past, even if a bumpkin from McKinney got into Tsinghua University, they wouldn’t stir any waves in a place teeming with talents like Beijing.

But this year was different.

This year’s top scholar in the college entrance examination at Tsinghua University was Mr. Zachmann’s granddaughter whom he took over ten years to find, not to mention she had a great presence.

Quite a few people attended her college entrance celebration.

The scene was such that many who wanted to attend later didn’t have the qualifications.

With Nathalie Quinlan making such a big move at her college entrance celebration, it was hard for many eyes in Beijing to ignore her, and now the news was out that she was going to represent the Chinese Medicine department in a competition as a freshman who hadn’t even completed her enrollment procedures...many in Beijing found the news quite fantastical.

They weren’t very interested in what the medical competition was actually about academically; they just wanted to know what the newly acknowledged daughter of the Zachmann Family was up to.

Govert Griffin had a wide network of connections, knowing people from all walks, and he was smooth in his dealings; apart from that one time he confronted Caryn Zachmann in the group, he got along well with everyone else.

As soon as Nathalie’s matter came up, many in their little circle were asking him about the truth of the situation, and he didn’t delay and directly called Sadam Vinson.

On asking, it turned out to be true.

Quick-thinking Govert Griffin immediately asked Sadam Vinson if there were tickets available at the venue of the medical competition and whether friends and family could attend.

On June 28th, the weather in Beijing was clear and sunny with bright sunshine.

Nathalie Quinlan was woken up at 8:30 by a call from Shawn Norton.

After hanging up the phone, she got out of bed, wrapped in her robe she first went to take a cold shower, then came out, changed into a set of black long-sleeved T-shirt, and casually picked up a duckbill cap placed on the desk, putting it on her head, covering her eyes, revealing only a hint of her pretty chin.

She had few things to bring, a single shoulder bag containing only a water-based pen, a bottle of breath mints, and a book related to the medical competition.

Nathalie Quinlan threw everything into her backpack, zipped it up, slung it over her shoulder, and headed out.

Downstairs.

Alfred Garland had prepared breakfast and upon seeing Nathalie coming down, he hurriedly called out, ”Ms. Quinlan, you’re up, come have breakfast.”

Nathalie Quinlan, with one earphone still in her ear, her phone continuing to play the content of medical books sent to her by Mr. Avalon, was multitasking and still casually spoke to Alfred Garland: ”Hmm, I won’t eat. I want to go early, still have some things I haven’t finished reading.”
