The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1728: Chapter 1728: More Than Just Caleb Dax Left

”Are you leaving?”

Zevaney Kingsley is a prominent figure of the new generation in the Kingsleys Family and knows Khendy Lordon. She speaks more naturally and intimately with Khendy Lordon compared to others.

”The banquet hasn’t ended yet, are you leaving at this time?”

Khendy Lordon’s attitude toward her was indifferent. He nodded: ”I have some matters to attend to.”

”...” This was obviously an excuse, and Zevaney instantly fell silent.

Khendy Lordon was indifferent to her attitude and straightforwardly told her: ”Ms. Kingsley, would you please pass on my apologies to Mr. Kingsley and tell him that I have something to do today and will visit him next time.”

Zevaney is not the type to get overly emotional. After a brief pause, her apricot eyes glistened, and she nodded with grace and poise, saying, ”I understand.”

Khendy nodded gently, his eyes narrowed slightly, raised his hand slightly, and instructed the bodyguards behind him: ”Let’s go.”

The imposing bodyguard behind him immediately started pushing his wheelchair towards the exit.

”Ms. Kingsley, could it be that Mr. Lordon is also going to follow that person?”

A man in his early thirties beside her chuckled softly and spoke to her in a lowered, flattering voice: ”I heard that Mr. Dax from the Pharmaceutical Association also went after them. What exactly is Nathalie Quinlan’s background? Did she learn how to make gunpowder?”

Hearing this last question, Zevaney took a deep breath.

Her expression remained unchanged as she calmly said, ”I don’t know, perhaps she has a renowned teacher guiding her.”

The man withdrew his line of sight and nodded in agreement: ”True enough, Ms. Kingsley, you are an expert in this area. Even if you were just having fun and not serious, her managing to calculate the answer ahead of you shows quite a talent in this field. Surely she has a mentor in this area, but definitely can’t compare to Ms. Kingsley.”

The man couldn’t help but sigh: ”...It’s rare for someone her age to grasp the intricacies of gunpowder!”

Zevaney didn’t pay much mind to an outsider girl. A trace of impatience flashed in her eyes, but she still smiled slightly, maintaining face for the other person: ”I’m also just a rookie in this field, there’s no saying who is better than whom, everyone progresses together.”

While her words suggested indifference, her heart pondered.

Khendy seems to know that girl... and Mr. Dax from the Pharmaceutical Association?

Zevaney’s gaze gradually deepened.

What exactly is the story behind this girl called Nathalie Quinlan?

*

Inside a room at the Paradise Hotel.

Nathalie Quinlan initially stayed in a single room, a queen-sized bed.

After all, it’s a high-class hotel in Inderia.

Even her ordinary room is slightly larger compared to rooms of the same type at other hotels.

A single person staying there is more than sufficient.

But that wasn’t the situation at present!

Her small room was crowded with people.

Master Cadmus, Shawn Norton, Jackson Wafford, and her dad each occupied a spot. All surrounded her, but none of the four questioned her from beginning to end. Their eyes simply followed her every move.

Wherever she went, their gaze followed.

Initially, Nathalie could pretend not to notice, she acted as if she hadn’t seen them. She opened the small fridge in the hotel room, took out five bottles of water, distributed them to everyone, then she carried her own bottle to the small tea table, opened the cap, and took a few sips.

Yet, even after finishing her water and screwing the cap back on,

the four showed no intention of speaking to her or leaving, which caused Nathalie to feel a bit of a headache.
