The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1266: Chapter 1266: Invite Evron Barness to go together

”Your sister passed the initial trial of Master Cadmus’s laboratory?” Evron Barness looked at him with surprise, then laughed: ”Impressive!”

”Do you have time this evening?” Hendrik Zachmann asked again.

Despite Evron Barness being generous with his praise for Caryn Zachmann, when Hendrik mentioned inviting him to join a gathering of Caryn’s friends, his eyes showed hesitation; he wasn’t too keen to attend.

”Evening, huh...” Evron leaned back casually, one hand on his leg, tapping his fingers absentmindedly, just about to refuse: ”I’m afraid I might not be free tonight...”

He hadn’t finished saying he was unavailable when...

Hendrik interrupted him, disregarding face, looked at him and slightly pleaded, ”Come with me and take a look if you have time, we’ll just play around then leave.”

Evron’s words were stuck in his throat, making it hard to refuse, though deep down he wasn’t that willing to go.

He’d met Hendrik’s biological sister, Caryn, before. She wasn’t unattractive, and had quite a nice aura. However, there was an arrogance between her brows that suggested she thought herself superior. She believed she concealed it well and was polite to others, but Evron had a mediocre impression of her and wasn’t inclined to interact with Caryn too much.

After all, the Barness Family wasn’t inferior to the Zachmann Family. There was no need for him to curry favor with Caryn.

Even if he heard Caryn had made it into Amadeus Yancey and their circle, knowing Sadam Vinson and Brian Bonette.

Evron had no interest in ingratiating himself with Caryn.

Even when Hendrik told him Caryn passed the initial trial at Master Cadmus’s laboratory, he was still disinterested and reluctant to hold the young lady in high regard.

No matter how unwilling Evron was to go, he couldn’t resist Hendrik’s repeated invitations.

Hendrik and he had a pretty good relationship, both being at Maybelissa, so Evron reluctantly agreed, jokingly saying: ”Alright, fine, I never said I wouldn’t go!”

”For Caryn, your sister’s celebration party, I definitely have to congratulate her. You can come with me to the mall to buy a gift, right? I can’t just show up and freeload a meal empty-handed.”

Hendrik was a bit relieved when he heard Evron was willing to attend Caryn’s friend’s gathering. Knowing well that Evron changed his mind only to give him face, he reluctantly said to Evron, ”Thanks, Mr. Barness.”

Evron chuckled and exchanged a few polite words with him.

Hendrik took the opportunity to stand up and said, ”I’m going to the restroom.”

”Go ahead.” Evron shrugged, signaling indifferently for him to go as he pleased.

Hendrik got up and went to the restroom.

After leaving the coffee shop, he didn’t walk too far. He pulled out his phone once more, lowered his head, and sifted through WhatsApp for the bold avatar of the girl, clicking into it.

He sent her another message.

[Nathalie Quinlan, I saw the hot search. I heard you made it to the finals, congratulations on your achievement. Keep it up in the finals.]

After the WhatsApp message was sent out.

Hendrik pondered, then asked: [Caryn passed the initial trial at Master Cadmus’s laboratory today. She’s invited friends for a meal, I’ll be there too. Are you coming? If so, I’ll come pick you up, or you can come on your own, either is fine.]

He sent the Serenity Clubhouse’s location address to the girl.

The girl’s avatar remained silent, showing no reaction. After he sent his message, it was like a stone sinking into the ocean, not a single person looked at it.

Hendrik’s mood worsened.

He had been trying to contact Nathalie in the past few days, but Nathalie’s attitude towards him was very cold. She wouldn’t pick up the phone or respond to messages.

Deep down, Hendrik still wanted to mend relationships with his family, but he didn’t know how to begin.

Thinking this way and that, he finally decided to invite Nathalie to Caryn’s friend’s gathering.
