Chapter 1224
“I-It’s Sir Everett!”
“It’s Sir Everett! Quick, someone, help him up!”
The subordinates of the Craig family exclaimed and
rushed to the edge of the balcony.
Duncan looked over and dropped the equipment in his hand to the floor.
“E-Everett?”
Everett was bleeding all over as he climbed up from the edge of the balcony.
With the quick help of the subordinate, he soon lay on the floor.
Duncan teared up as waves of emotions washed over him.
As he was about to approach Everett when another figure went to him faster than him. She had already
passed him and plunged directly into his arms.
It was Ninian.
Everett was not completely conscious yet, but he instinctively hugged her back tightly.
Her voice was choked up. She had been crying so much. that there was no more voice coming out of
her mouth.
Harold, who was beside them, was not jealous. Instead, he covered his face with his hands.
‘This brat! What a nuisance!’
Ninian carefully touched Everett’s face, as he did not look like he was in a good condition. His
bloodshot eyes were not focused on her. He was still not completely conscious yet.
He had climbed up out of survival instinct.
His survival instinct had protected her from danger, clambered on the wall in time, and climbed back
up.
Duncan, who was next to him, regained his composure. He stepped forward. His voice was cold and
hoarse as he said in a quivering voice, “Send him to the hospital first. I’ve contacted a specialist, and
he’s preparing to treat him.”
The moment he knew that Rowan had come to Cairnstan, he had immediately prepared everything.
The doctors from Ganstern were still on their way, but he had hired the top doctors in Cairnstan.
Ninian teared up. She was not willing to let him go. Harold pulled her aside, embraced her, and
comforted her.
She clutched his shirt, gritted her teeth, and cried on his shoulder.
Everett was sent to the hospital.
However, Ninian was unable to follow him to the hospital. George called and forced her and Harold
were forced to return to the Winters family’s mansion.
The lights in the Winters family’s mansion were lit brightly.
After a lapse of more than three years, the Winters family had launched the first-level defense again.
Bodyguards dressed in black were positioned around the Winters family’s mansion, and all the
servants gathered in the hall and garden. They lowered their heads and were ready for battle.
Their car passed through the gate of the mansion, to the open-air fountain, and finally stopped in front
of the mansion.
Harold was pale. When he saw this, he knew that George was furious, truly furious.
After hiding it from him for so long, the cat was finally out of the bag after this huge incident.
Harold shrank his neck. ‘Surely George won’t hesitate to hit me.’
Ninian, who was beside him, remained silent.
Her usually bright eyes looked dull and bleak.
She had not spoken a word ever since Everett fell off the balcony.
“Grapie, we should get out of the car…” Harold gulped, feeling terrified.
Without uttering a word, she got out of the car and walked into the mansion with Harold.
The mansion used to be lively. However, despite it being crowded, the place was as silent as a grave.
When they entered the mansion, everyone looked at them, feeling worried.
In the main hall, George was sitting behind his desk, burying his head in his work.
When he heard Harold and Ninian come in, without looking up, he said, coldly, “Harold Winters, kneel
down.”
Harold walked towards him and knelt on the floor. He lowered his head and apologized, “George, I’m
sorry. I’m sorry…”
