The Unveiling of Secret Queen

”So early?”

Nathalie Quinlan heard he was about to leave and snapped out of her thoughts to ask him.

Khendy Lordon saw that she finally focused her attention on him, feeling slightly better, then said, ”Maybelissa has some matters that need my attention.”

Nathalie Quinlan estimated that this was indeed the reason, responded with a nod, then said, ”I’ll take you tomorrow morning.”

Khendy Lordon’s lips curled upwards, his mood brightening completely.

He didn’t forget to remind the girl, ”Remember what you promised me, to like my post every day.”

Vincent Moore’s phone call came through again.

Nathalie Quinlan raised her hand to him, leaving him with a cold and restless silhouette, then departed.

Khendy Lordon watched as the girl left, and after a long while, he lowered his head and dialed a number on his phone.

The phone number was hidden.

The real digits didn’t show.

Khendy Lordon’s call lasted for a full minute before the other side picked up, without emitting any sound.

Only Khendy Lordon’s deep voice, with a hint of a teasing tone, came through slowly, ”Listen, I don’t care what you plan to do, don’t cross my line! You know where my line is.”

Nathalie Quinlan returned to the villa and first went to her room to take a shower.

Then she opened her computer, logged into her account, and typed Martin’s name into the search bar on the black market, pressing the enter key.

Hundreds of pieces of information quickly popped up on the screen.

Nathalie Quinlan pulled out a chair to sit down, scrolling down with the mouse to filter through information one by one.

Until the mouse moved to the third page.

She finally saw a useful message.

[Martin family invested billions to support scientific research institutions, seeking talented individuals.]

Nathalie Quinlan stared at this message for a while, then picked up the phone charging on the table, walked to the window, and called Nicholas Fuller.

It was already around ten at night.

Nicholas Fuller was ready to rest.

Nathalie Quinlan’s call happened to wake him, but he wasn’t angry, and gently asked after answering, ”What’s up, why are you calling so late? Did you encounter something?”

Nathalie Quinlan’s gaze lingered on her computer screen, looking at the information obtained from the black market searches, the source was unclear, it’s already been about 20 years.

The 20-year mark was quite ambiguous.

Lynette Kingsley also disappeared under mysterious circumstances 20 years ago.

Nathalie Quinlan gripped her phone tightly, lowered her gaze, and straightforwardly asked him, ”I’ve heard the Martin family once spent billions supporting a scientific research institution, is that institution The First Research Institute?”

”Where did you see this information.” Nicholas Fuller instantly woke up from his sleep, immediately asking her.

Nathalie Quinlan leaned against the windowsill, looking at the starry night outside as a cool breeze swept past her ears, and calmly said, ”I found it on the black market.”

”I met Martin tonight.”

Nicholas Fuller was shocked, ”You, met Mr. Martin tonight?”

”Yes, a friend introduced me to him. I happened to look him up when I got back and saw this message.”

Nicholas Fuller didn’t hesitate, quickly donned a jacket and headed to the study, saying while he moved, ”Wait for me, I’ll call you right back.”

”Okay.” Nathalie Quinlan hung up the phone.

...

Nicholas Fuller didn’t make her wait long.

Ten minutes later.

Nicholas Fuller called back, but it wasn’t an ordinary call, it was a video call.

Nathalie Quinlan clicked to confirm.

Nicholas Fuller appeared before her, and from the backdrop of shelving filled with books, it was clear where Nicholas Fuller was.

Nicholas Fuller was wearing a thin nightgown with a coat over his shoulder, his aged face showed seriousness, succinctly asking her, ”Are you looking into your mother’s matter?”
