George understood how Colin was feeling and pitied him. They did grow up together, after all. However, he did not say anything. He patted Colin’s shoulder and said, “We won’t bring this up ever again. Don’t worry.”Colin nodded. “Sir, you always keep your promise. Please protect Young Lady Ninian.”“Hmm.”George returned to his study room once everything settled down. Less than half an hour later, Harold sneaked into the room. “Um, George…”George was not surprised to see him here. He cocked his eyebrow and said casually, “Why are you here?”“You mentioned you’ll contact the Craig family and ask about Everett’s situation. You also said that you’ll help them to deal with Rowan. Is that true?”“What are you up to?”“Hehe, I’m just curious.” Harold smiled and said, “By right, shouldn’t you be hating the Craig family? Why are you willing to take the initiative to find out how Everett was doing and help them find Rowan? We don’t usually stick our noses into another family’s aff

George pursed his lips. He did not say anything as he felt a sour feeling in his heart. ‘My dear sister is blindly in love with another man. How could I be okay with that?’He changed the topic as he said, “Do you want to get some more sleep? Al and Mel will be back soon. I’ll wake you up when they arrive, okay?”[They are coming back too?] Ninian looked shocked. She typed on her phone and asked, [Did Al… know about me and Everett?]“I don’t think anyone can hide it from him. He already knows about it, and he’s on his way back. He’ll probably be home any minute from now.”Ever since she gave Alden’s contact number to one of the female artists from the entertainment industry, she had been over the moon and simped on him. Even so, she was blacked out and completely ignored by him. Finally, she gritted her teeth and texted, [Mr. Winters, Ninian is the one who gave me your contact number.]Sure enough, almost immediately, she was unblocked. Before she could message him, her phon

‘I’m a grown-up now. I shouldn’t let other people bear the consequences of my actions. I might be in pain, but Hal feels the same too.‘I’m the one who begged Hal to help me. I even got him entangled after that. How can I let him bear the punishment alone?’Everyone in the room could not bear seeing Ninian in this state. Mrs. Tuffin could not help but cry. ‘Poor Young Lady Melody.’ Under such a tense atmosphere, Alden crouched down on one knee, and looked at Ninian seriously, “Grapie, are you sure you want to accept the punishment?”Her eyes welled up in tears and nodded vigorously.“Alright, then. Since you’re willing to admit that it’s your doing, I won’t be biased.” Alden said, “As a punishment, you must live abroad and never return.”Ninian was stunned. Alden continued, “Since this incident happened because of you, the easiest solution is to remove you from this place.”“We’re all worried that Rowan will attack you again and that you might be in danger again because of

“You’ve tried to hide it from them for so long before. I’m just afraid that they won’t let it slide.” Duncan frowned. “If they go too far, don’t put up with it. Fight back, and if something happens, I’ll support you.”Everett felt amused when he heard this. He just agreed without talking back to him, which was a rare sight. Duncan seemed a little restless. He was more anxious than Everett, who wanted to meet his future brothers-in-law.“I need to check if we have enough money for a dowry for the Winters family.” He said, “If you can make that girl give you her hand in marriage, I’ll give her half of the land the Craig family owned as a dowry.”Everett smiled and shook his head.“Don’t worry. I’ve saved some money myself. I can still afford some betrothal gifts.”‘It’s just that, right now, this is not the biggest problem.’Everett lowered his gaze, looking a little down. ‘A few days ago, Ninian was in danger because of me. The Craig family saw this with their own eyes. What’s

Ninian replayed the scene of Everett jumping off the building in her head like a looping nightmare. Even right now, as she thought about it, she could feel her chest tighten again and her breathing became rapid. She forcibly suppressed her emotions as she followed after her siblings. After they entered the exclusive elevator, they went straight to the floor where Everett’s ward was. After all, it is a private hospital owned by the Craig family. The ward where Everett stayed had a wonderful, natural environment.It was like a huge suite, and even after a group of people walked in, it did not look crowded at all.Harold was acquainted with Everett, but because he was still not on good terms with George and Alden, he did not dare to walk up front. He followed them from behind. When George and Alden walked into the ward, they saw a young man standing in the middle of the ward.Even though Everett was a young man, he looked level-headed and exceptional. His gaze looked calm and d
