MADAM WINTERS’S FIGHT FOR HER CHILDREN CHAPTER 1084
Harold‘s question made Ninian recall something.
She furrowed her brows slightly, and her beautiful apricot eyes looked lost for a moment.
“I don‘t know either. I thought someone in our family found out about my return, but it turned out that that wasn‘t the case. I also asked someone to investigate it, but they found nothing,” Ninian said. “If it weren‘t for the fingerprints, or that colleague‘s abnormal behavior, I would have thought it was all in my head.”
When Lana heard this, she asked nervously, “What? What happened yesterday? Someone was watching you?”
Ninian nodded and briefly explained what happened at that time.
After Lana heard this, her face became a little strange.
Harold observed the change in her emotion. His teasing eyes narrowed slightly and gained an edge that was unique to the children of the Winters family. “What do you know, girl?”
“According to the time and place you mentioned, a name does come to mind,” Lana said, then she shook her head in denial. “I must be thinking too much, he could just be passing by at the time.”
With a stomp, the car braked suddenly.

Harold turned to look at her and spat out one word,” Who?”
Ninian also looked at her, but her tone was soothing.“ Lana, don‘t be afraid. We just want to know. We won‘t make judgments without evidence.”
Lana hesitated for a moment before she said, “Yes... Everett. At that time, I went to pour you a glass of water, and I almost ran into him when I came back. Back then, he looked awful, and his footsteps were hurried. His aura seemed cold all over, so I didn‘t dare to look too much.”

‘Everett?! Was it The Everett?‘
Ninian‘s eyes lit up in an instant. Material © of .
But when she thought about how he treated her with such cold indifference during the filming, Ninian‘s mood gradually calmed down, and she even became a little depressed
If the one Lana saw was Everett, then it was a blatant no. Everett must have just been passing by there. After all, she stood right at the entrance, and it was normal for the people in the set to use the entrance to go about places.
‘Am I overthinking it?‘

“Everett?” Harold asked, “Who‘s that?”
Ninian‘s face burned up all of a sudden, and she quickly said, “He‘s the male lead of the cast and basically the god in our circle. He‘s not close with me, and he‘s very aloof. He definitely wouldn‘t spare
me a glance, so he must have been just passing by.”
Seeing his sister‘s nervous expression, Harold rubbed his chin. He gained a profound look in his eyes.
“Really?” Harold said, “Ninian, tell me honestly. Why do you want to enter the entertainment industry so much? Could it be that... you want to meet someone?”
“W–What nonsense! I‘m not like that...”
Ninian‘s face turned red in an instant. She stammered and glared at him angrily, like a fierce little squirrel with deadly cuteness.
“Is that so?” Harold smiled and resisted the urge to poke her cheek. He happily said, “Then why are you so nervous?”
“I‘m... not nervous!” Ninian did not dare to meet his eyes, so she could only mumble, “You know that I like being in the entertainment industry. I shot an advertisement more than three years ago. At that time, Everett hadn‘t even debuted yet!”
“Eh? Did I really misunderstand it?” Harold finally stopped focusing on the matter, but he sighed and warned her, “You need to enjoy life while you still can,
girl. The day you are found out, you would definitely be wrangled back home. When that time comes, remember to secretly let me know, I‘ll leave the country in advance to avoid the crossfire. Otherwise, there would be five people in the family making my life miserable, and I‘d be dead by then.”
“I got it.” Ninian shrank behind his seat. Her eyes were evasive, yet held a crafty look, as though she was happy that she managed to dupe Harold yet again.
Only Lana, who sat in the passenger seat, could not help but look back at Ninian with a strange look on her face.
‘How did Ninian know that Everett hadn‘t debuted yet when she shot that advertisement?‘
