The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1294: Chapter 1294: Amadeus: My girlfriend is not inferior to anyone

”...” Stanley Zachmann slightly retracted his chin, but internally, this news had shocked him to the core, making it difficult to accept.

There has always been a marriage contract between the Yancey Family and the Zachmann Family.

But only he and the old master knew about this contract.

Neither the old master nor he ever took the verbal marriage agreement between the two families seriously, both believing that Nathalie Quinlan and Amadeus Yancey weren’t suitable.

Who knew...

Stanley Zachmann really couldn’t accept it.

Yet he couldn’t bring himself to criticize his precious daughter. Subconsciously, he looked at the young man opposite him, frowning. The little goodwill he had built up before almost vanished: ”What, when did this happen?”

”Recently, I guess.” Nathalie tilted her head, her dark eyes deep and beautiful: ”Uh... just after the internship period.”

”Internship period??? What do you mean?” Stanley Zachmann only felt he couldn’t keep up with young people’s ways.

Even relationships have internship periods? What is an internship period?

He thought of how Amadeus had been staying over in McKinney before, and his heart sank. A thought came to him: could it be that they started dating during Nathalie’s college entrance exam period?

That would mean Amadeus is too inconsiderate!

And then Audrick—why did Audrick never bring this up to him?

Stanley Zachmann’s mind was a mess, unable to sort through the confusion for a moment, and a mix of emotions surged through his heart. At times he felt guilty for being preoccupied with research and not caring for his daughter. Other times, he couldn’t accept that the precious daughter he had just reunited with had been silently taken away before his eyes.

That bittersweet, frustrated feeling of being a father, he was experiencing it for the first time! Stanley Zachmann was utterly bewildered, not knowing how to deal with the sudden situation at hand.

”Uncle Zachmann.” Amadeus didn’t expect Nathalie to admit to their relationship. There was a subtle light in his eyes, and his thin lips held a very polite, gentlemanly smile: ”I didn’t think it through and didn’t inform you in advance about this.”

He looked at Nathalie, and there was a gentle light in his gaze.

The aura all around him was restrained, yet it couldn’t hide his elegance and upbringing: ”Nathalie is exceptionally outstanding, more so than anyone else I’ve ever met. I can’t help but be drawn to her. The more I get to know her, the more I discover many shining aspects in her... Uncle Zachmann, Nathalie is the most outstanding girl I’ve ever met, impeccable in every way! I may still have many shortcomings, but I will strive to be the man who can shield her from the storms.”

Stanley Zachmann couldn’t speak for a long time, mainly because he didn’t expect Amadeus to lower his stance so much, making it hard for him, as a father, to protest: ”You... don’t have to say it like that.”

Amadeus Yancey was the most outstanding among the younger generation in Beijing. No one would deny the excellence of Mr. Yancey from the Yancey Family.

Even if Stanley Zachmann didn’t like him coveting his precious daughter, he couldn’t bring himself to say Amadeus wasn’t a match for Nathalie.

Apart from other things, Amadeus was actually a very excellent and decent young man. If not for his excessively high status, his reaction wouldn’t have been so intense.

”You are quite excellent too.” Stanley Zachmann said, although he didn’t feel quite right about it.

Amadeus looked at him and smiled slightly, his expression was quite earnest: ”Uncle Zachmann, every word I say is sincere. Nathalie is the best girl I’ve ever seen.”

Stanley Zachmann was taken aback, unable to respond for a while, but the previous dissatisfaction in his heart gradually faded away. Somehow, he began to accept this matter a bit.

Mainly, Amadeus had lowered his stance significantly. There was also one particularly satisfying point—everyone thought Nathalie was inferior to Caryn Zachmann or many people in Beijing, but every word of Amadeus was saying that his daughter was outstanding, no less than anyone!
