The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 501: Chapter 501: Still Want Nathalie to Shed a Layer of Skin_1

Mr. Zachmann showed a look of surprise, frowning, and said, ”Is this Nathalie Quinlan still not awake?”

The October night breeze in McKinney was cool, and Ivy Wilmar adjusted the shawl on herself and responded with a forced smile, ”Ha, she relies on her background, and didn’t take us seriously. She’s arrogant because she feels secure and unafraid.”

”She has a background? What kind of background?” Mr. Zachmann was puzzled and said, ”I’ve looked at her file; isn’t she just an ordinary high school girl with good grades, studying at No. 1 Middle School in McKinney, in Class A? You’re always in Beijing and might not know, but No. 1 Middle School is the best in McKinney, and Class A is the top class. Every year during the college entrance exams, many No. 1 Middle School students get into top universities, and 80% of them come from this class...”

”She didn’t get into Class A on her own merits.”

Ivy Wilmar couldn’t be bothered to explain to him that Nathalie Quinlan went to Beijing to take the Tsinghua University joint exam and didn’t pass.

She simply reminded him, ”She has the support of the Zachmann Family. You must have heard of Mr. Zachmann; with a person like him coming forward, getting her into a top class at No. 1 Middle School wouldn’t be difficult.”

The surname Zachmann is common, but in McKinney’s elite circles, there is only one Zachmann Family, which is the one that moved to Beijing for development ten years ago.

He was stunned for a moment, not expecting this high school girl to have such a connection behind her.

”She’s related to the Zachmann Family?”

”...Half-related, I guess, not a true member of the Zachmann Family. Speaking of which, I have some history with Nathalie Quinlan.” Ivy Wilmar spoke indifferently as she briefly explained the matter of the real and fake heiresses of the Quinlan Family and then said in a serious tone, ”I think the Zachmann Family isn’t putting much effort into her; they haven’t even brought her back to Beijing before college entrance exams. It seems they just let her have a name in the family registry. The Zachmann Family really values Caryn.”

”...However, all this doesn’t matter to us. Even if the Zachmann Family values her, she won’t get off easily for leaving Jecksen Wilmar in such a state this time. I don’t want her life in exchange, but she must at the very least be skinned alive!”

When Ivy Wilmar reached this point, not even her fur coat could hide the fierce killing intent on her face. It was evident that she was truly infuriated by Nathalie Quinlan.

Having said this, she swallowed the anger in her chest and looked up at Mr. Zachmann again, asking him, ”Is that Simon Cadwell still trying to protect Nathalie Quinlan?”

Mentioning Simon Cadwell, Mr. Zachmann couldn’t help frowning, clearly agitated.

”Ah. It’s still the same attitude; he’s stubbornly resisting us, insisting that the case is still under investigation and that they can’t conclude it hastily. He says they need to investigate things thoroughly...”

Hearing this, Ivy Wilmar could hardly contain her fury, clenching her fists, she snapped, ”Jecksen is lying in the hospital unable to get out of bed, and they still want to investigate?”

”The hospital’s injury assessment results indicated minor injuries. I just made a phone call to consult a familiar lawyer, and the lawyer agrees with him; minor injuries don’t constitute criminal responsibility. He’s adamant about protecting the attacker, and we can’t do anything to him.”

Mr. Zachmann was just as annoyed. Simon Cadwell’s actions were undoubtedly a slap in the face on his own turf. However, after consulting with a lawyer, who shared the same opinion, they could only seek compensation from Nathalie Quinlan.

When did the Wilmar Family ever lack money?

What they wanted was for the perpetrator to be cut to pieces, to serve as a warning to others!

Who wants ten or eighty thousand in compensation?

”The injury assessment result is easy to handle. McKinney isn’t limited to just one hospital. I’ll arrange for Jecksen to be moved to another hospital for a new assessment right away,” Ivy Wilmar had already planned, her eyes narrowing as she asked him, ”How long does Simon Cadwell need to clear up the investigation?”

Mr. Zachmann, not quite reaching one meter eighty with a height of just 178 centimeters, looked impeccable in a suit, the very picture of decorum. At that moment, he pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, the eyes behind the lenses cold and severe. ”He says he needs three days.”
