The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1036: Nathalie: I have a friend...

Caryn Zachmann was the belle of the Clinical Department at Tsinghua University, and Hugo Sullivan was her senior as well as a fellow student under Adelle Wafford. Caryn excelled at interpersonal relations and always had a good relationship with Hugo.

Thinking about this, Stella Iversen could not help but look again in the direction of the girl in the corner, her discontent growing.

If the person who had come with them today was Caryn, things would have definitely been a lot easier to handle.

Right from the start, she questioned why they needed to bring a freshman newcomer along.

The principal even insisted that this freshman might come in handy somehow.

And now that things had gone awry, she hadn’t seen the newcomer saying anything to help, had she?

"I’ll go give Caryn a call." Stella was too frazzled herself to bother with Nathalie Quinlan, simply repressing her anger.

She was unsure in her heart and not quite certain whether Caryn would be willing to help.

But being strangers in the Illegal Zone, apart from the connection to Hugo, they had no other leads to deliver the items to the Arbitration Committee.

"..." Jackson Wafford was, after all, the president of Tsinghua University. He was used to mingling with people like Shawn Norton and connected to top-tier families like the Yancey Family, the Wilmar Family, and the Tanzil Family. He was no ordinary person, and he knew from what Stella said that delivering the information might be off the table.

It’s highly likely that the student didn’t really want to help them.

He himself was frantically anxious, a departure from his usual composure, restlessly picking up the phone and then putting it down, contemplating whether to ask for help from Mr. Yancey back home.

After all, if anyone in the country had clout in the Illegal Zone, it was probably Amadeus, the young member of the Yancey Family.

Just as Jackson and the others were left hanging and caught off guard, the girl who had been silent in the corner began to speak leisurely.

"All you need is to find someone to get the items to the Arbitration Committee, right?"

Stella and Jackson were both planning to use their connections to get out of the current predicament.

Suddenly, they heard Nathalie Quinlan speak like that.

Before Jackson could react, Stella was the first to frown, her tone extremely unfriendly: "Yes, we just need someone to deliver the information, but do you know anyone? If you can’t help, then don’t add to the chaos!"

Didn’t she see how busy they were?

Nathalie Quinlan didn’t even glance at her, her clear black and white eyes looking towards Jackson, casually picking up the phone she put on the table, her conspicuous face carrying a carefree and somewhat arrogant expression: "I have a friend who happens to be here, I’ll ask him to come down."

Jackson Wafford: ...

She has a friend??

In the Illegal Zone??

And at the Golden Pavilion Hotel??

This...

Stella was also stunned, not at all expecting Nathalie to disregard her and simply say ’I have a friend’.

She recalled that she had previously asked Adelle about Nathalie Quinlan, and her brows furrowed once more.

She felt that Nathalie was lying.

Because Stella was close to Adelle, when she asked about the freshman from the Chinese Medicine Department, Adelle had told her that despite her good grades and having been accepted into Beijing from McKinney, no one knew what means she used to ingratiate herself with the Yancey Family at such a young age, and because of the Yancey Family’s connections, she easily managed to impress Mr. Norton and Mr. Avalon...

In short, her impression of Nathalie Quinlan was extremely bad.

This was the Illegal Zone and the Golden Pavilion Hotel was a certain kind of place; did she think that just by bragging that she could find someone, that any Tom, Dick, or Harry would be useful?

They needed to deliver the documents to the Arbitration Committee.

This event’s Arbitration Committee had some connections with the Red Alliance.

Stella stopped talking, standing there haughtily, no longer reaching out to Caryn or Adelle, with her arms crossed over her chest, her face full of disdain, waiting to see what kind of ’friend’ Nathalie Quinlan would find to come over!
