The Unveiling of Secret Queen

”Left?” Zevaney sat back with a feeling of loss, gritted her teeth, and called the waiter: ”Excuse me, could I borrow your computer?”

”Huh?” The restaurant waiter was momentarily stunned, scrutinizing her outfit carefully, not seeing her as someone who needed to borrow someone else’s computer.

Zevaney maintained a smile on her pretty face, allowing him to look freely: ”I didn’t bring my computer and would like to borrow yours. Is it convenient?”

The restaurant waiter placed his hands properly in front and nodded, bending over slightly: ”Alright, just a moment please.”

Zevaney stayed in her seat, ordered another coffee, and waited until the waiter returned with the item.

”Here’s the computer you requested.” The waiter handed her a black laptop borrowed from the bar.

Zevaney expressed her gratitude: ”Thank you.”

Then she opened the laptop, logged into the search bar, and entered an email ID.

The waiter had already quietly walked away.

Zevaney was alone.

Her hand hovered over the keyboard for a long time, her gaze fixed intently on the screen. Eventually, she made up her mind to take the plunge.

She selected a small portion of the content from Lynette Kingsley’s notebook, edited it into a document, and attached it to an email, pressing the Enter key.

Email sent successfully.

Zevaney saw the successful send notification on the computer, let out a breath, and systematically erased all traces on the borrowed laptop, including deleting the document she had saved.

She then formatted the computer again, stood up, called the waiter to return the laptop with a cheerful smile.

Before the waiter could check the laptop, she settled the bill.

Zevaney promptly and effortlessly left the restaurant.

Elsewhere, Nathalie Quinlan went to the airport to say goodbye to Mr. Yancey and Candice Yancey, watching their airplane disappear into the 9,000-meter high sky.

Then she composed herself and went for a meal with Fredy Yancey and Ian Edbert who stayed behind.

After the meal, Nathalie returned to the villa to catch up on sleep.

Fredy Yancey and Ian Edbert each went back to the Yancey Family’s property in Inderia.

Nathalie had a long sleep.

She slept continuously from the previous night until 3 p.m. the next day.

She got up, washed up, changed clothes, and went downstairs, finding Amadeus Yancey had already gone out.

The expansive villa had only Sadam Vinson and Alfred Garland still at home.

Sadam Vinson was lounging on the sofa playing games, looking like a playboy. Upon seeing Nathalie come downstairs, he took a moment to greet her: ”Nathalie, you’re awake? Want to eat? I can have Alfred warm something up for you.”

Alfred was cleaning up in the kitchen and, hearing this, came out, wiping his hands while looking at the girl: ”Ms. Quinlan, what would you like to eat? I’ll make it for you.”

Nathalie wore a casual outfit for going out, a duckbill cap on her head, casually said to them: ”No need, I’m eating out. I’m going out for a bit.”

”Ms. Quinlan, are you heading out?” Alfred put down the towel he was using to wipe his hands and immediately looked for the car keys: ”I’ll drive you.”

Nathalie refused before he found the car keys, grabbed her bag from the living room, and headed out: ”I’ve arranged with a friend; she’s driving over to pick me up.”

She said as she reached the hallway to change her shoes.

Sadam Vinson, hearing the sound of a car parking outside, glanced up, thinking Nathalie seemed to have some matters to attend to today, just about to ask her: ”Nathalie, when will you be back? Which friend is it? Why don’t you wait for Amadeus, he’s about to return.”
