Chapter 1161
It was a huge amount of money!
“The Everett” was amazing! He had to be with Ninian forever!
Paul should just get lost!
Ninian and Everett walked at the front while Zayn and Lana walked at the back.
While Lana felt good about Everett, Zayn pushed his glasses up the bridge of his nose. He softly said,
“I heard that Paul came here and had a conflict with Ms. Winters. Do you know what happened?”
Lana was overwhelmed by the mug. When she was suddenly questioned, she became totally
defenseless. She just said, “Don’t talk about it! Paul Whittle is a pervert! He’s insane! He actually…”
She instantly stopped talking.
When she saw Zayn’s shrewd gaze, she immediately covered her mouth!
Ninian wanted to solve this on her own. If Ninian did not take the initiative to tell Everett, she could not
reveal their secret! She could not be blinded by the profit and betray her revolutionary friendship with
Ninian!
Lana smiled and pleasantly said, “He… He just came to greet Ninian. I also don’t know the details.
You’ll have to ask Ninian.”
Something crossed Zayn’s eyes. He did not expect this girl who looked innocent and naive to actually
respond so quickly.
He hid the shrewdness in his eyes before he smiled warmly and said, “It’s okay, I’m just asking. Don’t
be nervous.”
Lana secretly mocked him. How could she not be nervous?
To avoid being set up in the conversation and being a third wheel, Lana did not have dinner with them.
Instead, she left halfway through.
In the restaurant, Ninian and Everett were sitting in a room with excellent privacy while waiting for their
food
to be served.
Everett had brought his laptop along. At this time, he was typing on the keyboard and working.
“Everett, what are you busy with?” Ninian asked. Besides acting, he seemed to always be busy. He
nearly did not have any personal time.
“Some work in Craig Corporation, and…” Everett paused for a while before he chuckled in a low voice.
“And some
collaborations with my future eldest brother–in–law.”
“Hmm?” When Ninian registered what he said, she instantly widened her eyes. “Do you mean…”
“Your eldest brother, George Winters.” Everett’s expression was filled with some helplessness and
admiration. He said, “The Craig family has been having some business with the Winters family, and my
brother, Duncan Craig, has been in charge of them. But now, George seems to be trying something out
with Craig Corporation, so my brother has handed the business to me.”
“Huh?” Ninian felt slightly worried and asked, “Does George know about our relationship?”
“I don’t think so, but he must be suspecting something,” Everett said. “Last time, in Ufrya, I set up some
traps to deviate George and Alden’s tracking, but Alden is a genius on the Internet. He was able to
discover traces of the Craig family.”
Ninian looked worried. She wrinkled her nose and said, What should we do? If my brothers find out
about us, they’ll definitely oppose our relationship.”
With how strict her brothers were toward Melody and her, they would not agree with them being
together based on Everett’s health alone.

Thinking about this, Ninian felt extremely agitated and also irritated for some reason.
“Don’t panic. I’m here.” Everett pinched her nose, and his expression was filled with doting affection.
Ninian felt slightly relaxed, but Everett’s phone suddenly
rang.
Her expression changed slightly after she took a glance at
the screen.
The incoming call showed George’s number.
Everett was about to answer, but Ninian held his hand.
“Don’t answer.” Ninian pouted with a pitiful gaze. “I’m scared…”
