The Unveiling of Secret Queen

James Lawrence’s face changed.

Nathalie Quinlan slowly lifted her eyelids and glanced inside. ”They’re out.”

Vincent Moore was already walking over with the unconscious person, carrying her like a little chick and tossing her to James Lawrence and the others.

”You take them back together.”

Seeing Zevaney Kingsley’s miserable state, and the rough man in front of him throwing a severed pinky finger at herself, James Lawrence’s eyelids twitched nonstop. He finally couldn’t help saying to the Girl, ”Young Miss, I heard about the Davidson Family on my way here. That’s their own family business. The Davidson Family hasn’t said anything, so why must you get involved? By doing this you’re undoubtedly putting yourself on the opposite side of the Kingsleys Family. Mr. Kingsley and many of the Elders at home are already very dissatisfied with your recent behavior, and this time you’ve again...”

Nathalie Quinlan was far too arrogant.

No one expected Nathalie Quinlan to actually lay hands on Zevaney Kingsley. As for Nathalie Quinlan, they had only planned to restrain Zevaney Kingsley, to make her explain whether she had anything to do with Marcella Davidson being poisoned.

No one expected that after Nathalie Quinlan took her away, she hadn’t intended to question Zevaney Kingsley at all.

Instead, she went straight for one of Zevaney Kingsley’s pinky fingers.

James Lawrence took a deep breath and looked at the unmoved Girl. ”The Kingsleys Family is already making a choice. Young Miss, you are one of their options as well. In fact, as long as you’re willing to come back...”

Nicholas Fuller hadn’t replied to the Message yet, probably hadn’t seen it.

Nathalie Quinlan put down the Phone and stuffed it back into her pocket, speaking very lazily. ”Who they choose has nothing to do with me!”

”...”

James Lawrence could practically imagine how Hansel Kingsley and the Elder Council of the Kingsleys Family would react once he brought her back.

—Since Nathalie Quinlan refused to return to the Kingsleys Family, Zevaney Kingsley was the Kingsleys Family’s only choice.

And Nathalie Quinlan just had to break one of Zevaney Kingsley’s fingers. Those hands of hers were experimental hands; experiments all demanded extreme precision, like playing the piano.

Zevaney Kingsley’s hands were even more precious than a concert pianist’s.

The Kingsleys Family had cultivated Zevaney Kingsley for so many years; they would never want to see these Results!

This time Nathalie Quinlan had basically trampled the Kingsleys Family’s bottom line.

For the moment James Lawrence couldn’t think of any way to fix this. On top of that, Willy Kingsley was calling to hurry him along again, so he could only order the people with him to hurry up and take Zevaney Kingsley away.

The Kingsleys Family entourage left in a rush.

Watching them go off into the distance, there wasn’t much emotion on Vincent Moore’s tough Scarface. He turned and asked the Girl, ”Ms. Quinlan, next we...”

”Hospital first,” Nathalie Quinlan said lightly.

Vincent Moore didn’t ask any more.

The Message that Zevaney Kingsley had had a pinky finger broken quickly made its way back to the Kingsleys Family.

She wasn’t sent home, but rushed straight to the hospital.

The hospital had many bone specialists in orthopedics who could set fractures, but Zevaney Kingsley’s hands were extremely important. If the Kingsleys Family wanted them restored to the highest degree, they could only look for the top specialist.

”Caleb Dax from the Pharmaceutical Association is still in Inderia. I’ll ask him for help.” Someone in the Kingsleys Family thought of Caleb Dax and hurried off to make a phone call.

Willy Kingsley and Hansel Kingsley both waited outside the operating room with darkened Faces.

Willy Kingsley was so furious he slammed a fist into the wall. ”How dare Nathalie Quinlan...”

He and Hansel Kingsley had staked the future of their entire branch on Zevaney Kingsley. If she was ruined, they’d be left dumbstruck as well.

Hansel Kingsley’s Face color was terrible. He said to Lynn Kingsley, who hadn’t spoken all along, ”Clan Chief, we can’t just let this go this time!”

Lynn Kingsley ignored him.

Just then, the person who had gone to make the phone call came back.

Seeing him, Willy Kingsley hurriedly asked, ”How is it? When will Mr. Dax come over?”
