The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1226: Chapter 1226: Celine Tucker is also in Rivendell

He desperately told himself in his heart not to be jealous. Audrick Zachmann and Nathalie Quinlan were cousins, and in McKinney, Nathalie had lived with Audrick for so long that their relationship was better than with him. It’s normal.

But he was just incredibly jealous, feeling terribly stinged.

Sadam Vinson’s face had been hurting initially when Alfred Garland delivered a punch, so he wasn’t speaking now. He looked around here and there, then noticed the man sitting beside him waiting for the match to be broadcasted, as if he suddenly thought of something, and sincerely asked: ”Amadeus, hasn’t Nathalie installed some kind of live streaming software for you??”

When he asked this question, the air in the room froze for a few seconds.

It wasn’t until Amadeus Yancey moved, raised his eyelids, his dark eyes were deep yet reserved, and gave him a chilly look before answering slowly: ”No.”

Sadam Vinson shrunk his neck, rubbed the back of his neck, feeling relieved.

Even Amadeus, the official boyfriend, wasn’t privileged enough to have Nathalie personally install software for him. As a game teammate, not having that privilege didn’t seem so bad!

...

There’s still three minutes before the competition starts.

The atmosphere in the room was very tense.

Sadam Vinson initially joked and chatted a bit with others, but as the competition was about to start, even he stopped talking.

The room became quiet for a while.

Nadya Tucker, Govert Griffin, and others were all focused on the computer, waiting for the live broadcast to appear on the screen.

Amadeus Yancey went out halfway to take a phone call from Mr. Yancey, asking about Nathalie Quinlan’s participation in the competition and whether she was prepared.

He comforted the person on the other side of the phone who was even more nervous than him, and then returned to the room, sitting back in his previous position quietly waiting for Nathalie Quinlan’s match to start.

Meanwhile, Celine Tucker was also at Rivendell.

However, unlike Sadam Vinson and Amadeus Yancey, she didn’t manage to book a room. Instead, she was sitting with a group of socialite ladies outside the main hall of Rivendell, by the window, drinking water.

Celine Tucker wore a deep green satin dress that hugged her curves, with exquisite craftsmanship, the embroidery on the dress was particularly intricate and masterful.

A string of emerald green jade necklaces hung around her neck, standing out conspicuously among the group of socialite ladies.

At this moment, Celine Tucker was holding a cup of coffee, gently stirring it with a spoon, while listening to the idle chatter of the socialite ladies at her table.

She wasn’t very interested in other people’s topics, consistently displaying a lackluster demeanor.

Until one of the socialite ladies directed the topic towards her.

”Mrs. Zachmann, I heard you’ve split the family, you separated from Room One, what’s going on?”

”Your family has always gotten along well; I’ve never heard you talk about any family disputes.”

Celine Tucker’s sharp gaze saw the other person’s hidden enjoyment in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, coldly placed down the coffee cup in her hand, and replied rather bluntly: ”Does my family have disputes that require me to share it with you?”

The other person’s face went pale, suddenly a bit embarrassed.

”I was just asking, no need for such a big reaction. Oh, and I heard the niece that your family found was selected to represent the country in this world software championship, have you heard about it? My son says that contest is very impressive; each year, only one person from the country is selected to participate, unexpectedly it’s your family this year.”

Celine Tucker’s expression became more somber, but she was always calm and composed, showing no sign of it on her face, quietly tossing the coffee spoon aside, making a crisp sound: ”If Mrs. Olsen is envious, you can also bring back the illegitimate daughter from your family. I heard Mr. Olsen has a daughter outside who’s already in middle school, always achieving good grades; if you’re willing to let her come back, maybe your family will produce Beijing’s top scholar in college entrance examination.”
