The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1470: Chapter 1470: Turning to Zeus Tanzil for Help

”Heh heh.” Zeus Tanzil chuckled without saying anything, not wanting to explain too clearly. After all, explaining would be like rubbing salt into his wound.

Not even with ten extra lives would he dare to compete with that person from the Yancey Family for a girlfriend!

Zeus Tanzil felt utterly bitter inside.

Why is Nathalie Quinlan’s boyfriend Amadeus?

As long as it’s not Amadeus, Mr. Vinson would do!

Even if it were Mr. Vinson, he would still risk everything for Nathalie the Goddess.

But Amadeus...

Zeus Tanzil felt a pang of heartache.

He didn’t dare.

He truly didn’t dare to compete with Amadeus Yancey for someone.

He feared being beaten by the whole family, breaking his leg, and having his bank card cut off, stopping all his living expenses.

His parents were definitely brutal enough to do it.

He might even get kicked out of the house, cut off immediately for being a ’disgraceful son’!

Whenever Zeus thought of this, his chest felt like it was stuffed with a wad of cotton, making it hard to breathe, and at the same time he deeply despised himself.

Stewin Hoffman was right, he could risk it and try to fight for her. Who knows, maybe he’d get lucky?

Like maybe his goddess’s heart eyes would fail her, and she’d dump Amadeus for him.

But Zeus was very clear he couldn’t possibly do it; the chances of that happening were as slim as winning the lottery.

No—harder than winning the lottery!

The price he would have to pay was too great.

He didn’t have that kind of courage.

When he realized he didn’t have enough courage to fight for her, he loathed himself even more.

Maybe he wasn’t that much in love, but he was genuinely moved by her.

These feelings were very complicated. At least for now, Zeus found it hard to untangle the multitude of emotions weighing heavily on his heart.

”Anyway, it’s not as simple as you think, and Nathalie already has a boyfriend.” Zeus Tanzil briefed it in a few words, not wanting to continue talking.

Stewin Hoffman made an ’oh’ sound, scratching his head. At his age, he wasn’t aware of how complicated courting a girl could be, so he didn’t know how to comfort Zeus, opting to remain silent.

His eyes accidentally landed on Zeus’s computer, spotting something on it: ”Who’s Linda White? Why is her name beside Nathalie the Goddess’s?”

Zeus was looking at a news article.

The headline was crafted to grab attention.

[Hot Female Star Linda White vs Lighten Chaser, Lighten Chaser is completely outdone by Female Star!]

”Her?”

Zeus Tanzil placed a hand on the mouse, closed the page, then clicked the report button next to it, selecting the ’False Advertising’ option and marking it with a red check.

Only then did he slowly answer, ”An idiot!”

Stewin Hoffman: ...

Zayn Fisher happened to come in from outside and overheard their conversation.

His handsome face turned slightly pale. Holding a phone, he walked up behind Zeus Tanzil, awkwardly saying, ”Mr. Tanzil, I need to tell you something.”

He meant for Stewin to step aside, but Zeus turned around, glanced at him, and dismissively said, ”Go ahead.”

Stewin had the good sense to realize Zayn’s intention, quickly saying, ”I’ll go downstairs to buy a bottle of water, you guys chat.”

After he left.

Zayn Fisher’s tense jaw relaxed a bit, and he looked at the laid-back Zeus Tanzil, slowly starting to speak: ”Mr. Tanzil, could you ask your aunt to stop making things difficult for Linda White?”

”?”

Zeus Tanzil didn’t get it at first: ”Are you nuts? My aunt doesn’t even know who she is, when did she give her a hard time?”

With just the two of them, Zayn stopped beating around the bush and bluntly said, ”Linda White is my brother’s girl. He called me saying Linda offended Mr. Tanzil, and he asked me to apologize on her behalf, hoping Mr. Tanzil would be lenient this time...”
