The Unveiling of Secret Queen

”?” Violetta Hoffman’s mouth twitched slightly, wanting to remind her to lower her voice to avoid being overheard and getting a beating.

However, she reconsidered, knowing that the bigshot beside her typically acted unrestrainedly, so Violetta obediently shut her mouth like a dutiful wife.

Before Nathalie Quinlan arrived, Hansel Kingsley and Mrs. Davidson had been arguing with Nicholas Fuller for quite some time in the office.

Now that Nathalie was here, the two of them fell silent unexpectedly, unable to find the words to say.

James Lawrence saw Nathalie and had much to say, but the current setting didn’t allow him to speak to her.

”I’ve heard the institute is negotiating how to punish me.” Just as everyone quieted down, the girl’s unhurried voice rang out: ”I am willing to accept any punishment from the institute. I have only one condition: apart from me, anyone else who deserves punishment should be punished accordingly.”

Leony Davidson incredulously lifted her head, her throat dry: ”Are you insane?”

Mrs. Davidson’s heart skipped a beat, suddenly panicking: ”Director, this matter...”

Hansel Kingsley, Willy Kingsley, and Nathan Garland hadn’t expected Nathalie to come specially not to plead for herself but to request the institute to punish her!

Nathalie’s move completely caught them off guard, disrupting their original plan.

Hansel Kingsley came to inquire in advance about Nicholas Fuller’s relationship with Nathalie.

Although he didn’t understand how Nicholas and Nathalie, two seemingly unrelated individuals, were so familiar with each other, he could see Nicholas valued Nathalie greatly.

His intention was to drag Nathalie into the situation, hoping Nicholas would be cautious in dealing with Zevaney Kingsley’s matter, fearing to punish too harshly due to concerns about Nathalie’s future.

Who knew Nathalie would come herself and ask Nicholas to act according to the institute’s rules.

His forehead veins bulged, his vision went dark, and he nearly died of anger.

- According to the institute’s rules, this meant expelling Zevaney Kingsley!

Indeed.

Nicholas Fuller pondered briefly, then looked up and asked her, ”Have you thought it over?”

Nathalie was indifferent, nodding slightly: ”I’ve thought it over.”

Seeing her determination, Nicholas lowered his head to consider briefly, then lifted it again, his wise and aged eyes already making the decision: ”The institute will expel Zevaney Kingsley and Leony Davidson; as for Nathalie... confinement for three months.”

”Director...” Nathan Garland exclaimed.

Orson Saban glanced at him, frowned, and with some dissatisfaction in his tone, slowly said, ”This is done in accordance with the institute’s rules. Do you have any objections? Do you want to expel all three people?”

Nathan Garland was temporarily speechless at his retort.

Nicholas Fuller gave no room for others to plead further, calmly issued the order to leave: ”This matter is settled.”

”I’m tired, you all may leave.”

If Nathalie hadn’t come, Hansel Kingsley and Mrs. Davidson would have continued negotiating with Nicholas Fuller.

Yet Nathalie came.

She even accepted the punishment result.

They were left with no options.

”Leave, get out.” Orson Saban assisted in dismissing the crowd.

Leony Davidson was already slumped, her pretty face pale and powerless, still immersed in Nicholas Fuller’s result, unable to believe it.

”Mom, I...”

Even though Mrs. Davidson felt deeply unsatisfied at the moment, she could only support her, murmuring softly: ”We’ll discuss it at home.”

Before they left, they paused briefly by Nathalie.

Mrs. Davidson’s eyes were filled with a poisonous glare, eager to devour her, her lips trembling before she left: ”Nathalie, you’re ruthless. We’ll see!”

Nathalie hadn’t even glanced over, but Mrs. Davidson was frightened, hastening her steps and pulling Leony away.
