Chapter 1239
Ninian replayed the scene of Everett jumping off the building in her head like a looping nightmare.
Even right now, as she thought about it, she could feel her chest tighten again and her breathing
became rapid.
She forcibly suppressed her emotions as she followed after her siblings. After they entered the
exclusive elevator, they went straight to the floor where Everett’s ward was.
After all, it is a private hospital owned by the Craig
family. The ward where Everett stayed had a wonderful, natural environment.
It was like a huge suite, and even after a group of people walked in, it did not look crowded at all.
Harold was acquainted with Everett, but because he was still not on good terms with George and
Alden, he did not dare to walk up front. He followed them from behind.
When George and Alden walked into the ward, they saw a young man standing in the middle of the
ward.
Even though Everett was a young man, he looked level – headed and exceptional. His gaze looked
calm and determined, making the people around him feel tranquil.
As expected, he was one of the most outstanding children
of the Craig family. He stood in the middle of the ward, looking noble as he emitted a cold aura.
When Everett heard movement from the door, he turned
and the indifference in his eyes faded away. He turned and looked at them. He looked at the Winters
siblings calmly and respectfully.
“Hello, everyone.” He greeted them politely.
The Winters siblings had initially looked at him with hostile gazes. But when they took in his calm and
courteous gaze, they were a little dumbfounded.
‘It’s no wonder Ninian likes him. He’s attractive and has a good temperament.‘
Melody was the first person to relax and smiled at Everett.
George and Harold still looked hostile, sending chills down people’s spines.
‘So what if he’s attractive?
‘Everyone in the Winters family is attractive, too.
‘So, you think you deserve Ninian, just because you’re good–looking?! Dream on!‘
They did not respond to him. Even so, Everett did not feel awkward. He looked straight at Ninian
through the crowd.
At that moment, Ninian’s eyes became teary as she stared
at him.
Everett’s heart ached.
He knew that Ninian was the person who got hurt the most.
He had tried his best to sneak out to find her.
However, the conflict between the two families prevented him from getting the opportunity to see her.
He did not want to meet her under this circumstance. He could not even run up to her and hug her.
“Grapie?” Harold noticed Ninian not reacting. He
hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong? Does your wound still hurt?”
As soon as he spoke, everyone in the room shifted their gazes to her.
Everett’s expression changed, “Wound?”
He did not care about anything else at that moment. He walked straight to Ninian, grabbed her hand
nervously, and looked at her, “Are you injured? Where’s the wound? What happened?”
Ninian held his hand and shook her head with a smile, appeasing him.
George coughed loudly.
Alden’s temple pulsated. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Everett’s hand coldly. He gritted his teeth
and
said, “Sir, please behave yourself!”
