Chapter 1570: Chapter 1570: Mr. Norton Accidentally Discovered the Truth

They also need to consider Master Cadmus’s opinion.

So in the end, Caryn Zachmann was passed over.

”Nathalie, you don’t need to worry too much about any danger going to Inderia this time. I and Master Cadmus will lead the group; your dad is going too. No matter what happens, we’ll definitely protect you,” Shawn Norton said sincerely.

It’s just a pity he couldn’t see the expression of the girl on the other end of the phone was calm. She even rubbed her temples with a full face of helplessness and said casually, ”Um, I’m not worried about that.”

”Are you sure you want to go then?”

Nathalie Quinlan interrupted before he could finish: ”I’m not sure yet, we’ll see when the time comes. You guys aren’t going right away, I’ll tell you half a month in advance.”

”... Alright.”

”Well, I’m hanging up first, I’m sleepy.”

Shawn Norton smiled, his tone gentle: ”If you’re sleepy, go to sleep, I won’t bother you, bye.”

In the Tsinghua University president’s office, the elderly man with an energetic expression hung up the phone and walked back.

”How was it?” Jackson Wafford had been waiting for the results, and when he saw him finish the call with Nathalie Quinlan, he immediately went up to ask, ”Mr. Norton, what did Nathalie say?”

Shawn Norton was wearing a new-style Tang costume, looking full of spirit. He came back holding his phone, glanced at the anxious Jackson Wafford, and said unhurriedly, ”Nathalie said she can’t decide right now, she still wants to think about it.”

”Is that so.”

Jackson Wafford felt somewhat disappointed, his mood was quite complicated. A spot to go to Inderia with top masters is so precious; such a spot wouldn’t find someone like Nathalie Quinlan needing to consider in front of the top families in Beijing.

But how?

Jackson Wafford felt that someone like Nathalie considering was quite normal.

Nathalie seemed to always have this calm and collected personality, but as long as she agreed to something, she could achieve it to the extreme.

”Nathalie has a lot going on and is quite busy, she probably needs to see if she has time, let’s let her consider,” Shawn Norton said.

Originally, he wanted to tell the other party Nathalie agreed to inform him half a month in advance of the results.

The words were at the tip of his tongue.

Shawn Norton suddenly realized something was wrong, his eyebrows furrowed, and he suddenly looked sharply at Jackson Wafford, asking solemnly, ”Wait a minute, how does she know when the exchange meeting in Inderia is held?”

Jackson Wafford was confused, touched his nose, and looked at him puzzled: ”Mr. Norton, what are you talking about? How would anyone know...?”

Shawn Norton didn’t continue.

He was mainly too surprised but felt that Nathalie Quinlan was highly unlikely to have any connection with Inderia.

At the time, when he mentioned the spot to Nathalie, he indeed hadn’t mentioned the timing.

But Nathalie directly told him she’d inform him half a month in advance.

Shawn Norton was at a loss for words.

Nathalie wouldn’t know the annual schedule of the exchange meeting in Inderia, would she?

... Wouldn’t she?

A few days later, at dusk.

Zachmann Family Villa.

Ellen Quarles almost uninvited found Celine Tucker, the recent emotional strain had already worn down her edge. She barely spoke and revealed her intentions. Afterward, she placed the items Nathalie had given her on the tea table in the Zachmann Family’s living room.

”Mr. Zachmann, Mrs. Zachmann, please take a look.”

Leonardy Zachmann was rare at home today, and when he heard Ellen Quarles was visiting, he even specifically came out from the study to entertain the guest.

At her words, he furrowed his brows, shifted his gaze to the stack of papers on the table, and asked, somewhat puzzled, ”What is this?”
