Chapter 1275
Everyone standing at the door was caught off guard by Ninian’s question.
George, who was stunned, had a dark expression.
“What are you talking about? Stop scaring yourself. Go and wash your face. We’ll talk later.”
She let out a sigh of relief when she heard what George said.
‘I thought…
Thankfully, it’s just a nightmare.‘
She obediently went and washed her face, got dressed, and went to the living room.
The warm yellow light was switched on.
The atmosphere was tense when she saw everyone sitting there in the living room.
Ninian walked up to them nervously. After greeting them, she asked tentatively, “Well, what’s the matter?”
“It’s about Everett.” George said, “Rowan has been captured.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer heart skipped a bit.
“Rowan… has been captured?
“The problematic Rowan Craig has finally been captured?”
She was in a trance and disbelief.
“Yes, he’s currently being held in the dungeon under the Craig family’s house.” George said, “Everett is
interrogating him.”
She raised her head and looked worried.
Others may not know this, but she knew very well who Rowan was to Everett.
In his early years of ignorance, he regarded Rowan as his father. However, later on, his mother committed suicide
and Rowan became his eternal nightmare.
‘Will his symptoms show and lose control again if he were to see Rowan?‘
“That won’t do!” Ninian said sternly. “George, I need to go to the Craig family’s house. I need to see Everett.”
“The house is under lockdown. They’ve banned everyone from going in and out of the house. Even the Craig
siblings were locked out from their home.”
George had a solemn expression as he said, “You should know that the extended family is strictly forbidden. Even
the children of their own families will be isolated. Unless it’s under one condition: a major situation which endangers
the family.”
Ninian’s face instantly turned pale.
As a child of an aristocratic family, she naturally understood what George said.
“How can this happen? What exactly happened…?”
She was a little at a loss, and she glanced over at George and Harold, pleading for help as her eyes teared up.
“We don’t know what happened as well.” Harold
punched the couch and said angrily, “We had clearly joined forces with the Craig family to eradicate Rowan’s
influence, and we’re halfway there. Everett even tried to capture Rowan on the Internet. I thought it was over, but
all of a sudden, the Craig family announced that their house is under lockdown.”
Nerola, who was sitting beside George, looked doubtful.‘ Although my family isn’t as powerful as the top families
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsuch as the Winters and Craig families, still, I grew up in an upper–class family. I’m sure I’m able to get some sort of
information from certain connections and channels.‘
She said, “Everyone in my connection is discussing this matter. Many families are keeping a close eye on them.
They are lurking and waiting for the Craig family to fall apart.”
Ninian gritted her teeth even harder when she heard this.
“I must go there.” She said in a shuddering voice. “ Something must’ve definitely happened over there.”
“It may not be life–threatening, but it’ll aggravate his illness. I can’t let him deal with this alone.”
As soon as she said this, she stood up and was ready to leave.
“Grapie!” Harold swiftly blocked her. “You won’t be able to get in! The Craig family’s mansion is close shut. Even the
Craig siblings couldn’t get in, let alone outsiders like us.”
“But…”
“Yes, she can!”
Alden said sternly as he stood at the door.
