The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Nathalie Quinlan received a phone call from Nicholas Fuller while playing a game in the afternoon. She put her leg away and got up idly to answer the phone: ”Hello.”

On the other side, Sadam Vinson was still holding his phone on the sofa, urging her: ”Nathalie, where are you going? Hurry up, the game is starting.”

”I’ll make a call, you guys play first.” Nathalie half leaned against the side of the sofa, spinning a lighter in her hand, and lazily told him.

Sadam saw that she was busy.

He only said to the few people in their team: ”Nathalie has something to do, I’ll carry you guys this round.”

Govert Griffin, who was familiar with him, couldn’t help but joke in the team voice chat: ”Mr. Vinson, are you sure you can carry? Without Ms. Quinlan in this round, just don’t let it be a one against five at the start! Without Ms. Quinlan covering for you, we’ll only lie down and lose.”

”Damn, who the hell started one against five! I was giving the other side a chance, or else it’d be so boring to play one-sided.”

”Right, right.” Govert grinned cheekily: ”Then don’t give the other side a chance this round, we can’t carry it...”

Sadam cursed a few more times.

Nathalie lifted her gaze slightly in his direction, propping her elbow on the bar, asking rather casually to the person on the other end of the phone: ”Looking for me for something?”

Nicholas also heard that her background noise was quite noisy, he chuckled, and said: ”Zevaney Kingsley is leaving the research institute today, do you want to come and see?”

Nathalie raised an eyebrow: ”It’s confirmed?”

Nicholas couldn’t help but laugh: ”What, you don’t believe me?”

Nathalie hadn’t even spoken.

He continued in a warm tone: ”The First Research Institute will definitely expel Zevaney Kingsley, there’s no room for negotiation on this matter, and I can’t reverse my decision.”

”The Kingsleys Family has been in high positions for so long that they are blinded.” Nicholas said lightly: ”The First Research Institute doesn’t belong to any power in Inderia, I, as the director, still have the authority to expel a staff member from the institute. No matter how many people come to plead for her, it’s useless...I won’t change my mind.”

The Kingsleys Family sought many connections for Zevaney this time, these people directly or indirectly approached Nicholas to plead.

However, in the eyes of most people, Nicholas has no children, no desires in life, even if they wanted to cater to Nicholas, they couldn’t find a way in, and could only let it go.

After a few days of stalemate, the final result still disappointed the Kingsleys Family.

”She’s coming to The First Research Institute today to collect her things, do you...have time to come over and watch?” Nicholas called to ask if she wanted to come join in the fun.

Nathalie’s eyes lowered, her sharp chin looking somewhat cool, she was still fiddling with that metal lighter in her hand, the whole person looked quite arrogant: ”Not going.”

”I don’t have the habit of watching a drowning dog.”

Nicholas couldn’t help but laugh: ”You, you...”

He thought for a moment, then changed his wording: ”If Zevaney Kingsley heard that, she’d probably be furious with you again.”

Nathalie casually tossed the lighter onto the desktop, turned her head, shadows flickering in her eyes, she said rather indifferently: ”It’s none of my business how she wants to think, I can’t control her mind, she can think whatever she wants.”

”The Kingsleys Family will not give up on her.” Nicholas suddenly brought up.

”Before they find someone to replace her, they have to support her. Even if she leaves The First Research Institute, the Kingsleys Family will find a way to boost her reputation, they won’t let her fall just like that.”

”The Kingsleys Family is determined to protect her this time.”

Nicholas said with a cold irony: ”I didn’t expect the Kingsleys Family to so firmly choose to protect an empty doll of a person, it seems they truly have no one else to use.”
