The Unveiling of Secret Queen

He hadn’t finished the second half of his sentence ’make her my daughter-in-law.’

Sadam Vinson felt a cold gaze fall on him, his back hair standing on end. He quickly straightened up and changed his words: ”Ahem, I mean Nathalie, you look quite good like this.”

He didn’t forget to turn around to seek approval: ”Amadeus, right?”

Amadeus Yancey made a phone call to Candice Yancey, but no one answered. He turned off his phone, lifted his eyes, glanced towards the girl’s direction, paused slightly, and handed over a black mask: ”The wind is strong outside, wear a mask, be careful not to catch a cold.”

Nathalie Quinlan, half-believing, took it from his hand, lowered her head, fiddled with it, and was about to say ’There’s no need.’

The man seemed to know what she was thinking, his eyes deep, lowered his gaze to her: ”You’re now a prominent figure in Inderia, many eyes are on you, it’s best to wear a mask when going out to avoid unnecessary trouble.”

Her face, no matter how many times viewed, still looks strikingly eye-catching.

Sadam Vinson and Alfred Garland couldn’t help but nod in agreement.

Nathalie’s appearance... truly hard not to draw trouble.

However... why do they feel Amadeus handed her a mask, but insisting she wears it wasn’t the point?

Amadeus didn’t wait for the two to think more, reached over and took the mask from the girl’s hand, leaned closer, his voice low: ”Nathalie, lower your head.”

Nathalie glanced sideways at him, sitting still without moving, a hand gently brushed the mask past her ear, carefully putting the mask on for her.

Nathalie’s whole body felt slightly stiff, but didn’t resist much. She seemed to have gotten accustomed to someone’s presence, just a brief discomfort, soon naturally relaxed, every nerve seemed defenseless against him.

This absolute trust, even Nathalie herself was taken aback: ”You...”

Amadeus Yancey had already put the mask on her, hiding her outstanding face, his thin lips slightly curving, lazily saying: ”There.”

”That will do.” He then retreated back to his original position, appearing devoid of any private intentions.

”...” Nathalie partly narrowed her eyes, watching him.

Right at this moment.

Alfred Garland quietly said: ”Young lady, they’re coming out.”

Nathalie’s attention was diverted, she turned her head to look outside the window.

Mr. Yancey and Candice Yancey were coming out under the protection of the Yancey Family bodyguards.

Nathalie no longer concerned herself with the mask, unbuckled her seatbelt, casually opened the car door, and got out.

Alfred Garland and Sadam Vinson followed to get out of the car.

Amadeus Yancey’s eyes swirling, slowly unbuckled his seatbelt, and also opened the car door.

...

Candice Yancey first spotted the people waiting by the roadside, pointed towards Nathalie’s direction, rather surprised, saying: ”Dad, look, isn’t that Nathalie.”

”Where?” Mr. Yancey, being aged, didn’t react as quickly as he used to, but his eyes were bright, soon spotting Nathalie and their location.

At a glance, he saw the girl standing tall among the crowd, instantly grinned widely, quickened his pace to walk forward, while half scolding: ”Why didn’t you tell me Nathalie was coming, if you did, we would have stepped out faster. It’s so cold outside, have no idea how long she’s waited.”

Candice Yancey, feeling quite aggrieved, supported him, following his steps: ”I said I needed to answer Amadeus’s phone, but you insisted I shouldn’t. You said he’s just a mischievous boy, should let him feel the cold wind outside!”

”You’ve forgotten, it was you who didn’t let me answer the phone, and purposely dawdled on the airplane, unwilling to come out.”
