The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 310: Chapter 310: Could It Be Puppy Love?_1

Sure, here is the translation of the given text into English:

As expected, they were asking whether she was going to come home for dinner in the evening.

The first message was asking if she would come back for dinner, and the second one was asking if she wanted to be picked up.

She lowered her eyelids, replied to the message, then put her phone on silent mode and closed her eyes to meditate.

...

Villa.

Audrick Zachmann was still waiting for Nathalie Quinlan to reply to his message when he saw Edric Yancey’s phone light up. He immediately asked, ”How is it? Did Nathalie say she’s coming back tonight?”

Edric Yancey, equally filled with tension, opened the message. Upon reading it, his big eyes turned disappointed as he muttered, ”Sister said she’ll come back later and told us not to wait for her or pick her up.”

Audrick felt a bit disappointed but was more worried, ”She didn’t say where she is? Or who she’s meeting?”

At the moment, Edric wasn’t in the mood to bother with him. With his tender pink lips pursed, he hugged his phone and went into his own world.

Audrick, full of concern, didn’t find comfort in him and ran to find Amadeus Yancey nearby.

With a worried face, he said, ”Nathalie didn’t say where she was going nor how long she would be out. I offered to go get her, but she didn’t want that. Who do you think she’s meeting?”

Amadeus Yancey had been around the entire time but hadn’t engaged in the messaging interaction with Nathalie, only listening occasionally to what they sent and what Nathalie replied.

At these words, he lifted his eyelids, his gaze shifting from the laptop he had been looking at, his dark pupils glancing at the man in a flurry, and he said dismissively, ”An elder.”

”An elder?” Audrick repeated his words subconsciously, his handsome face showing an expression hard to articulate. Staring at him, in disbelief, he said, ”Amadeus, you believe that?”

”What elders does Nathalie have? She’s already cut ties with the Quinlan family, and it’s not like she’s going to meet Jeff Quinlan and the others. Our family’s old man and my parents haven’t returned to Beijing; who could she be meeting?”

The more Audrick thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed, his heart racing like an ant on a hot pan. He spun around and came back, saying, ”...She couldn’t be meeting a boyfriend, could she?”

Eighteen was precisely the age of rebellion.

Audrick thought about what he was doing at eighteen.

Other than chasing his dream of music, he hadn’t shied away from early love affairs.

He hadn’t thought much of it when he was having his own early romances, but now the prospect of his sister possibly doing the same made his legs weak, and he recalled the repeated admonitions from the old man in the family, his brows nearly knotting together in worry.

”What boys are in Nathalie’s class? Let me think... There was a group I met last time; it seemed like she was close to that guy named...what was it, Liang something?”

Ugh, why can’t I remember all of a sudden!

Audrick slapped his head, and then, as if struck by inspiration, his eyes lit up and he grabbed at Amadeus Yancey’s clothes, saying, ”Justin Wafford!”

”Right, right, right, the boy’s name is Justin Wafford.” He remembered the name and gripped his heart tighter, ”I remember Nathalie and he seemed particularly close, and that boy is quite handsome, tall, fair-skinned, with a pretty boy look. Could Nathalie be meeting him?”

He had been too careless!

He had only been guarding against wolves close by and hadn’t noticed other wild wolves eyeing his sister.

Audrick was frustrated and anxious as his starry eyes turned to the man before him, his voice tinged with worry as he asked, ”Amadeus, should I call Nathalie and ask?”

Amadeus watched him pacing back and forth aimlessly like a headless fly, now arriving at a strange conclusion. His deep and narrow eyes narrowed, his voice low, ”If you don’t want to be seen as annoying and bothersome, I advise you not to call.”

That hit a sore spot for Audrick.

The one who had already taken out his phone paused and became hesitant again.

Oh no, how do I call my sister without annoying her?

Audrick even considered asking his fans on Instagram if they had ever been in a similar situation, wondering how to fully protect his sister as a brother without being disliked.

But remembering the trouble he caused the last time he impulsively posted on Twitter about Nathalie, he managed to suppress the impulse, his brow furrowing as he suddenly realized something was amiss.

”Amadeus, aren’t you worried?”
