Chapter 1209
“You-” Before Duncan could finish his sentence, Everett
interrupted him.
“I’ll catch that person, and…
“…rip his skin off with my bare hands.”
His tone was light yet ruthless, creeping the others out.
Duncan remained silent for a while and finally stopped opposing.
He said, “Since you want to make a move, feel free to do so. I’ll support you even if the sky is falling down.”
“Okay.” Everett’s gaze turned dark, and his eyes were full of coldness.
After he hung up, the car traveled speedily all the way toward the hotel.
Meanwhile, in the hotel’s banquet hall, when Ninian raised her head after she talked to Zayn, she did not see Agnes
and Paul standing in the same spot anymore.

The area was near a side door, while the other side was connected to the main lobby and entrance. If the two of
them had walked out through the main entrance, they
would have definitely passed by her.
She only lost track of them because of one possibility.
They had gone through the side door.
In this place where everyone came for profits and drinking, what did the two people want by avoiding the crowd
and going through the side door?
Ninian pursed her lips, and her delicate face was cold.
She walked toward the door, but someone stopped her.
“Lady, where are you going?‘
The person seemed like a playboy. He was not good looking, so he probably was not an actor. He had to be an
investor or a crew member.
He appeared slightly delirious, as he stopped and teased Ninian when everyone else dared not approach her.
Ninian frowned slightly. She had initially wanted to avoid him, but her eyes suddenly glinted and lit up.
“Sir, two of my friends are drunk, and they walked in here. Can you help me look around?”
Her tone was light, so she sounded soft as if she was being cute.
The playboy instantly fell into her trap since his heroism was triggered.
“No problem! I’ll go and take a look for you right now!”
He held his wine glass while he staggered away. Ninian was afraid that he would fall down.
“Don’t… You don’t have to help me. I can handle this small matter!”
The man muttered as he walked forward and went through the side door.
Ninian was slightly worried as she stared at his back. Two minutes after he walked out, she raised the hem of her
gown a little and went over.
If those two people were trying to intentionally lure her over, the playboy’s appearance could draw them out.
Beyond the side door was a long corridor and a garden at the side. After turning a corner and moving forward, one

When Ninian looked over, she could vaguely see a few people.
She did not simply move forward. Instead, she hid in the shadows and observed. By then, the tipsy playboy was
already on the walkway.
Two bodyguards stepped out from the shadows and stood in front of the playboy.
When Ninian saw this, the expression on her face became grimmer.
Even the Whittle family, where Paul came from, could not
hire such bodyguards. The bodyguards seemed like they had been purposely trained by a wealthy family.
What kind of people were there?
When she looked at the playboy’s back, she suddenly regretted her actions a little. She should not have simply
asked him for help before she determined the severity of the matter.
She planned to contact Harold and ask him to come up with a solution for this.
However, the two bodyguards seemed to receive an order. They suddenly moved aside and allowed the playboy to
walk through.
Ninian felt nervous, and she kept staring at the movement over at the pavilion.
