Were they… Paul and Agnes?The former actor and actress of “In Full Bloom” appeared there at the same time.It was actually not strange for them to attend such an occasion together. However, it was strange that they looked very close as if they were discussing something.Ninian was very sensitive toward people’s emotions. She could clearly feel that the aura lingering between them was of sorrow and grief.It was obvious from their profound expressions and coldness that occasionally crossed their faces when they talked.Ninian’s heart sank slightly when she recalled the anxiety that she vaguely felt before she came over.She took out her phone and called Everett.After all, these two people held some grudges against Everett and her.She could rest assured since Harold was there with her, but she could not help but feel worried about Everett.Her call was not answered.Ninian’s heart rate increased slightly. She found Zayn’s contact number and made another call.It was answere
“That person” did not just cause the death of Duncan and Everett’s parents, but he even pushed Everett into hell, nearly condemning him to eternal damnation.Everett’s current disease was closely related to that tragedy.That was why Duncan ordered Everett to go back as soon as he heard the news.But would Everett listen to Zayn?Before Zayn could answer, Duncan said, “Pass the phone to him. I’ll talk to him myself.”Zayn and the driver at the side instantly sighed in relief.They really could not do it.Luckily, Mr. Duncan was willing to do the talking personally.“Mr. Everett, Mr. Duncan would like to speak with you.” Zayn held his phone and reported.“Tell him to protect himself. He doesn’t need to interfere with this,” Everett spoke coldly without even looking up.The light on the screen illuminated his intense expression, and his eyes were red.“Everett!” When Duncan heard Everett’s words, he began to sound strict. He yelled, “Go back now! Listen to me!”Everett frowne
“You—” Before Duncan could finish his sentence, Everett interrupted him.“I’ll catch that person, and… “...rip his skin off with my bare hands.”His tone was light yet ruthless, creeping the others out.Duncan remained silent for a while and finally stopped opposing.He said, “Since you want to make a move, feel free to do so. I’ll support you even if the sky is falling down.”“Okay.” Everett’s gaze turned dark, and his eyes were full of coldness.After he hung up, the car traveled speedily all the way toward the hotel.Meanwhile, in the hotel’s banquet hall, when Ninian raised her head after she talked to Zayn, she did not see Agnes and Paul standing in the same spot anymore.Her expression darkened slightly. She put her drink down and started looking for them by walking to the side.The area was near a side door, while the other side was connected to the main lobby and entrance. If the two of them had walked out through the main entrance, they would have definitely passed
Ninian was not a selfish person who neglected the safety of others.After she sent an emergency text to Harold, she observed the movement on the other side.Once they took any action, she would immediately step out and shout. She was far away from them, so she was confident about getting away.Besides, in a banquet where famous people in the entertainment industry were gathered, she did not believe that anyone would be bold enough to do something wicked in public.Indeed, as expected, the drunk man was released not long after.A bodyguard even helped him to walk back as if he wanted to send the man back to the banquet.After some thought, Ninian lifted her gown and easily jumped over the railing in the corridor. She found a big tree and hid behind it.The bodyguard brought the man closer and closer. When they passed by her hiding place, she faintly heard the young man mumbling.“It was her. She asked me… to come and look for her friends… “She’s so… um… beautiful… like a fairy
She was not stupid. How could she walk out there on her own?Perhaps they were just testing the waters. Perhaps they knew that she was hiding there.Either way, they wanted to confirm her real location, and that would require some time. After all, the area was a good hiding spot.She could buy some time for her rescue.Everett should be arriving soon. She did not know what was going on with Harold, but she would not have to wait for too long either.Ninian exhaled lightly, and her gaze became resolute.Even if they could not arrive on time, she could at least deal with these people with her status and intelligence.The person clearly knew that she was Ms. Ninian Winters, and nobody dared to easily hurt the Winters family. His appearance and bloodline did not change that.Ninian came up with a theory when she saw that person’s appearance clearly.That person had to be aiming for Everett.She learned from Harold and Melody that there had been a big change in the Craig family ma
Twenty minutes, as mentioned by Zayn in the call, had already passed, yet Everett had not arrived.Ninian’s heart became tightly clenched as a result.She obediently followed the bodyguards and walked toward the pavilion from the stone path in the garden.Soon, she stood in front of the man who resembled Everett.When she looked at him from a close distance, the 80% similar face gave her a visual impact as well.This man looked strangely young, like he was just in his thirties.He and Everett similarly owned handsome faces, but his features were not as noble and cold as Everett’s. His features were filled with ruthlessness, though.It was hard to cover up even with a friendly smile, thus it made him look more hypocritical.The two people behind him were considered Ninian’s old friends.Their gaze on her was filled with hatred and grievance too. The only difference was Agnes’ more cynical attitude and Paul’s heightened paranoia.But Ninian directly ignored them.She did not n
However, she continued to look shy and said, “Thank… Thank you for the compliment.”When Rowan heard this, the contempt in his eyes became stronger.When he noticed that Ninian seemed to let her guard down slowly, he purposely chatted with her and complimented her. When she finally smiled, he opened up the main topic of their conversation.“I hear that you’re in a relationship with my nephew. Do you know about his disease?”Coldness crossed Ninian’s heart.He was truly aiming for Everett.“Do you mean his slight paranoia?” Ninian looked a little embarrassed and said, “I know about it, and I can accept it. But my family might have a different opinion, so we’re still working hard.”“Paranoia?” Rowan laughed out loud as if he had heard a joke.It was only after a while that he looked at Ninian’s anxious gaze and said, “So, you don’t know the truth, do you?”“The truth?” Ninian’s heart tightened. She thought that she could roughly ask about these matters. “What truth?” she asked f
The voice attracted the attention of everyone in the pavilion.“Everett… Everett Craig!”When Paul saw Everett, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. His expression instantly changed, and he let go of Ninian’s hand hastily.Ninian moved out of his grasp and immediately looked at Everett. Her eyes could not help but become teary, and her vision became blurry.For some reason, the moment she saw him, she felt conflicted and wanted to cry.Perhaps she was happy that he was fine and had reached the place safely. Perhaps she was happy that he had shown up in time and protected her once again. Perhaps she could imagine how cruel the past was when she only heard a part of it.At that moment, she felt extremely gloomy, but she also felt joy, grief, and sympathy for him.“Don’t cry.” By then, Everett had already walked up to her. His gaze was affectionate as he held her in his arms and gently kissed her soft hair.“Baby, I’m sorry! I’m late!”Harold, who had rushed over together with him,
The screen was full of comments like, “I can’t accept this sadness.”When the host saw the audience overreacting, he smiled to smooth out the situation and said, “Have you forgotten? Ninian just said that she wanted to announce some good news!”His words reminded everyone at the venue.With that, almost everyone held their breath and listened to her.“Everett and I will be holding a wedding soon!”“What?!”“Ah! Awesome! The day has finally come!”“Sob! Ninian and Everett finally have a happy ending! I’m going to cry! They’re my youth! I’ve witnessed love that has gone the distance!”“You have my blessings! You have to be happy for the rest of your lives!”Their cheers grew louder and louder, almost overturning the whole award hall.Everett was standing backstage. When Ninian saw the scene, she turned back, looked into his eyes, and smiled.They were finally getting married.The eighth of September was a good day for their wedding.The headlines in the entertainment section
The Winters family fell silent again.Among the three sisters-in-law, Lana was already so moved that she wept. Raina and Nerola were stronger, but their eyes turned red too.The Winters brothers, who were initially touched, instantly appeared dissatisfied as a result.They were actually moved and crying for other men? Women, you were playing with fire!Naturally, the Winters brothers did not have a chance to vent their anger because Duke had already stood up.He walked to the similarly outstanding young men, who were standing side by side, and patted their shoulders. At this moment, he seemed to age a little. He did not look like the overlord who dominated the business industry in the past.“From now on, I’ll leave my two babies to you.”When Brooklyn and Everett heard this, they were taken aback, but their eyes were soon filled with excitement.Before they could respond, Duke had already walked far away. Meanwhile, Adina got up abruptly to accompany him.She turned back and l
“Uncle Duke,” Brooklyn and Everett greeted Duke at the same time.Brooklyn was older, so he moved a step forward first and said, “Uncle Duke, this is something that I prepared three years ago. All properties under my name, including shares that aren’t limited to the family business, properties, estates, stocks, etc… were transferred to Mel three years ago. Whether in the past or in the future, everything I have, including my life, will belong to her.”Melody was shocked when he said that.All his properties had been transferred to her? He never mentioned anything to her. He just silently gave her everything.“Daddy…” Melody looked at Duke, and her clear gaze was filled with helplessness which was rare.Brooklyn was the only person, other than her family, who was willing to sacrifice everything for her.Such love that was enthusiastic, reserved, hidden, yet deep and long-lasting made her heart seize.George took the documents from Brooklyn and passed them to Duke.Duke flipped t
At the same time, Alden replied to her.“Daddy and Mommy are just in the next city. The journey will take two hours.”Melody was speechless. She was right!There was murderous intent on the indifferent and delicate girl’s face.Good! Great! She wanted to see where her father could hide this time!When Ninian came out after putting her makeup on, it was still early. There were still two hours before the ceremony’s banquet.There was still half an hour left before her father came home. At this time, Melody secretly called Everett and Brooklyn to come over. They were fully prepared, and they just waited for Duke to return home.At the side, George, Raina, Harold, Lana, Alden, and Nerola were watching the show.After the Winters sisters worked hard, the three of their sisters-in-law were successfully bribed to support them to get married as soon as possible.Even the three of their henpecked brothers also took their sides.Now, the Winters siblings had everything ready. They we
Her words were audible in the live stream, and they instantly caused a big fuss.[Ninian has a kid!][Is “the Everett” a dad now?][Sob! I knew that they secretly got married!][How could they not live broadcast my husband and wife’s wedding?]The comments on the screen kept moving, while Ninian was clueless on the other side.She just said, “It’s our baby. Please make the necessary arrangements, thank you.”The comments became more frenzied.[?][!]A series of symbols occupied the whole screen. After Ninian hung up, they were still rolling.The netizens were worked up.By the time the venue’s staff realized this, it had become the top trending topic.[#The Everett and Ninian secretly got married!][#Baby Ninian has a kid!][#The Everett is a father now!]Crazy, screaming fans filled the bottom of the screams.The couple had been together for so long, and the fans had gotten used to them from not accepting them at the beginning.After all, Ninian grew up quickly befo
There was also “as long as a woman had a stable job and strong support from her family, she would be happy and relaxed even if she stayed single for her whole life.”She could go on.Besides, what was more cunning about Duke was that he would never post the quotes using his own account. He would use his wife’s, Adina’s WhatsApp, to post inspirational quotes and links every time.In the beginning, it caused the Winters siblings to panic for a time, and they thought that their mother opposed their marriage.They sighed in relief only after Alden unintentionally hacked his father’s account. He realized that his father had found the posts and forwarded them to his mother before posting them using his mother’s phone.It was fine. It was normal for the father-in-law to trouble his sons-in-law.It was the same theory as the mother-in-law having conflicts with her daughters-in-law.However, the roles changed in their family. It was the father who was being antagonistic toward the daught
Reverie’s smile was sincere and genuine.She initially helped Ninian only because she thought that Ninian was great. Besides, Ninian said she wanted to rely on herself before the casting, which also impressed and moved her.Unexpectedly, she gave herself an opportunity with her unintentional act. That made Reverie feel blessed and surprised.Hearing what she said, Ninian felt warm and comforted.Everyone thought that the entertainment industry was filthy and full of schemes.In reality, there were many people who pursued their dreams and worked very hard there. There were also many people who helped and supported each other.When there were people, there would be competition, but there would also be warmth and sincerity.Ninian filmed her scenes in an orderly manner.As for the Winters siblings, their relationships also developed smoothly.George had happily begun preparing for his wedding. Raina was not a pretentious person either, and the couple had discussions about how the
However, to the surprise of those haters, Ninian, who was acting for the first time, not only did not drop the ball on any of her performances in the Oscar-level mission, but she also managed to portray her own charm and personality in the character very well.From her gentleness and firmness at the start to the grandeur during the protest to her enthusiasm and passion even when captured by the enemy and taken to the execution ground, her character arc represented the experiences of countless revolutionary predecessors.She had absorbed the spirits of many ancestors into her body. Seeing her alone demonstrated the bravery and unstoppable power of Cairnstan’s youth.Before she was executed, she looked at the rising sun and showed a gentle and firm smile.In the end, gunshots rang out, and her body dropped to the ground. However, the sun rose all the way and illuminated the earth.Numerous people were moved and went wild at the scene where she smiled. It was not until everyone’s e
“What? What turn of events?” Nilson immediately asked. “We have defenders!”“Defenders? What defenders? Are you talking about soccer now?” With wide eyes, Nilson asked.“No, not those types of defenders! What I mean is that someone stepped in and is explaining on Ms. Winters’ behalf! But it’s not one of our people. It’s defenders from outside!” explained the staff. “What?” Nilson immediately stood up. “Let me see!”The staff quickly handed the phone over to him, and the website page on the screen kept on refreshing. [@ActressReverieWood: “I’ve worked with the Winters family’s little princess before. She has a lovely personality. She’s soft-spoken and well-behaved, and she has no temper at all. What surprised me the most was her acting skills. She was a rookie who was full of presence, and she could easily blend into the concept. Most actors, including myself, admire someone as talented as her.]A few short clips were attached under the tweet, all of which were from the show,
