Chapter 1211
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 many years
ago. Rowan Craig, who was a direct descendant of the Craig family, had been chased out of the family.
Even if that person was not Rowan, he might still be related to the Craig family because his side profile
was almost 80% similar to Everett’s.
“Ms. Winters, we already know your location. If you don’t take the initiative to show yourself, we’ll go
and get you,” the bodyguards said.
Ninian was not convinced at all. She remained in the same position and nearly blended with the tree.
When the bodyguards realized that they could not trick Ninian, they frowned and gestured to the
pavilion not far away.
After they received an order, they finally made a move. They flipped over the railings neatly and started
partitioning the area to look for her.
Ninian was so nervous that she almost dared not breathe.
Her back even broke out in cold sweat.
She did not know what she would encounter, but she had to remain calm. The worst situation might
occur, but she had to negotiate rationally.
The garden’s surface area was not big, and Ninian did not hide very far away. Besides, the bodyguards
were well trained and knowledgeable. A while later, they found her hiding spot.
The bodyguards were initially annoyed and angry. After they saw Ninian who was shuddering in fear
with her innocent and clear watery doe eyes, their cold and tough expressions froze. Their ruthless
aura faded slightly in response.
Men, especially strong men, were born to be vulnerable and tolerant toward such weak and soft
women.
“Come out,” a bodyguard said. He did not sound as cold and tough as he did just now. “If you insist on
not coming out again, we won’t be polite.”
Ninian stepped out fearfully, and her watery eyes were full of worry and panic.
“Who… Who are you? What do you want with me? Sob! I’m scared…‘
She pouted as if trying her best to suppress her fear.
The bodyguards had always dealt with violence and tough people. They had never seen such a soft
and weak little girl who could seemingly be blown away by the wind.
The lead bodyguard softened his tone again and said, Don’t be afraid. My boss just wants to talk to you
for while.”
A profound light crossed Ninian’s eyes so quickly that they did not notice it.
She already had an idea in her mind. The person would not hurt her this time. Perhaps he just wanted
to test her.
If he tested her, what about Everett?
Everett’s situation… would be more dangerous!
Ninian felt incredibly nervous, and her anxious expression became more real.
She decided to cooperate.
Since the person did not want to hurt her, she should handle him as soon as possible. She would
understand his aim before she went to look for Everett!
