Chapter 1220
Outside the hotel, arrangements were made for Ninian to get into a car.
The car had been modified with special materials, and it was bulletproof, being able to withstand all
kinds of hot weapons.
Although the bombs in the hotel were cleared, Rowan had come prepared. Nobody knew whether he
had secretly done anything else.
Harold naturally would not let his sister face such a risk.
The people in the hotel did not know what kind of life threatening disaster they had just survived. When
they walked out of the hotel, they seemed to be in good spirits.
They got into their luxurious cars and left.
Zayn had initially wanted to wait at the entrance, but since there were too many familiar people, he felt
helpless and could only hide in the Winters family’s car.
Harold asked, “Are you sure that Rowan will keep his promise?”
“We’re not sure.” Zayn took off his golden-framed glasses and massaged his eyebrows impatiently. “Mr.
Craig can only make this gamble. He’s betting on the fact that Rowan still has an obsession over the
Craig family and defeating the former family head.
“Reality has proven that Rowan does have a very strong obsession.”
If it were not because Rowan wanted his place in the Craig family again, to openly defeat Everett, and
to return to the Craig family’s center of power, he would not have been so straightforward and agreed
to remove all the bombs.
Otherwise, he would have tried to get away and create some trouble for Everett.
Zayn’s words plunged the car into silence.
After Ninian remained quiet for a while, she suddenly asked, “What did Everett experience?
She had unintentionally asked about the Craig family’s secret, but Rowan’s words kept lingering in her
heart.
There was also Everett’s hatred toward Rowan, his paranoia, as well as the anxiety and closeness that
he hid
Everything made Ninian desperately want to know the truth and what Everett had been through in the
past.
What made an initially innocent and tender young man isolate himself and act like he was cold and
heartless? He was too afraid to even show a lot of emotion. He also had to invite experts to treat him
and suppress his disease using various medications all these years.
What turned her baby that way?
Facing her question, Zayn’s expression was filled with pain and reluctance.
He did not answer. Instead, he put on his glasses again and masked all the expressions that he had
just unintentionally shown.
“Ms. Winters, I’m sorry,” Zayn said. “If Mr. Craig doesn’t bring this up, I don’t think anyone else in the
Craig family would dare bring it up.
He was the descendant of a servant in the Craig family, and his father was the most trusted senior
butler in the Craig family. He would not betray the Craig family and talk about secrets that were hard to
reveal even if Ninian was the one asking questions.
“Okay,” Ninian said. “I’ll wait for him to tell me personally.”
The car became silent once again.
Harold said, “Grapie, I guess George will learn about the incident today soon.”
Ninian held her knees and appeared numb.
“It’s okay,” she said.
It was not the time to worry about that now.
Things had progressed to such an extent. They were not
George and Alden if they were still in the dark.
She was not in the mood to think about her elder brothers response to the situation.
Everett filled her mind and her eyes.
A life-and-death duel…
When Ninian thought about these words, she felt as if her heart was seizing and her limbs were in an
iceberg. The coldness penetrated into her bones.
Someone suddenly opened the car door from the outside.
Ninian immediately raised her head, and the others in the car also raised their heads.
When Zayn saw the person, he was especially shocked, to the point that he nearly stood up. He was
totally different from his usual calm and restrained look.
“M-Mr. Craig…”
When Harold and Ninian looked over, they saw a young man with a cold appearance and a strong
imposing manner standing outside the car.
