The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1307: Chapter 1307: So, Nathalie Quinlan is willing to see you?

Amadeus Yancey watched them leave hastily and called for a glass of lemon water for the girl, replacing the half-drunk glass in front of her. He gently asked her, ”Are you mad?”

”Not really.” Nathalie Quinlan quietly took the cup, sipped some water, and then slowly put it down. Her jawline was smooth and crisp. Her tone was quite calm: ”I’m used to it.”

”...” Amadeus Yancey’s actions paused for a moment, and he turned his head to look at her, suddenly feeling a bit sorry.

Before he could speak, the girl’s phone rang.

Nathalie picked up her phone and saw it was Leonard Zachmann calling. She didn’t answer it immediately; she stared at it for several seconds before picking up the call.

Yet her voice was not intimate: ”Hello.”

It’s unclear what the person on the other end of the line said, but Nathalie glanced at the road outside and the paulownia trees planted on either side of it.

After a minute of silence, she said, ”I’m going back to school later, how about the school gate? I’ll contact you by phone then.”

On the other side, Leonard Zachmann hung up the phone.

The atmosphere in the living room was quite silent.

Celine Tucker saw him hang up the call and took a deep breath, ”What did she say, does she want to see you?”

”Nathalie arranged to meet me at the school gate in half an hour.” Leonard Zachmann seemed to have aged several years overnight, with a few strands of silver hair appearing amid his short black hair.

He still wore formal attire, his hair meticulously groomed, and his stiff expression was serious. Although he had a headache, he didn’t show much emotion on his face, much more restrained compared to Celine Tucker.

Upon hearing that Nathalie was willing to see him, Celine immediately picked up her purse from the sofa and said, ”I’ll go with you.”

Leonard Zachmann put down the phone and did not agree to her request. His attitude was very firm: ”Why would you go, to criticize Nathalie again?”

Celine didn’t speak, but her eyebrows showed resentment and dissatisfaction.

They’re all a family. That Nathalie was responsible for Caryn losing her qualification to enter Master Cadmus’s laboratory, can’t she even speak about it?

Leonard Zachmann saw the changing expressions on her face and knew he had guessed correctly. He said with displeasure, ”Alright, you just stay at home. I can go by myself. Nathalie said she only wanted to see me. It’s not appropriate if you go along. I’ll ask Nathalie if she was unaware, and I’ll let you know if there’s any news. I don’t think Nathalie did it. She’s never done such a thing before, there’s no need for her to do it this time.”

Celine sneered, clearly ungrateful: ”She can do whatever. Didn’t she steal the lead role in the MV from Caryn? She only agreed to Stephanie Tanzil’s offer because she saw Caryn wanted to take that MV.”

After saying this, Celine still felt unsatisfied, her face growing somber: ”And how is the trouble at The Ninth Institute not caused by her? Caryn’s relationship with Mr. Vinson and them is well-known. It can’t possibly be Mr. Vinson and them targeting Caryn.”

”Enough!” Leonard Zachmann was a bit annoyed, glaring at her with a hint of irritation in his eyes: ”That theme song was originally written by Nathalie. If Nathalie wants to shoot that MV, it must be because Stephanie Tanzil invited her. What does agreeing to Stephanie’s invitation have to do with Caryn? It’s not like if Caryn wants to shoot that MV, Nathalie has to give it to her! She doesn’t even have the generosity to do that as a sister, and yet can ask Nathalie to give way to her in everything!”

”I’m too lazy to argue with you. Think about it yourself.”

After saying that, Leonard Zachmann ignored her reaction, picked up his briefcase, and strode out, swinging his hand.
