The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 786: Nathalie: I Didn’t Sleep at All!_1

"Lighten Chaser?" Caryn Zachmann’s mind was preoccupied with Phoebe Hoffman’s matter; she owed Lincoln Hoffman a favor last time, and this time when he came seeking her help, she couldn’t deliver, which was somewhat embarrassing for her. Hearing the name, her brain didn’t quite catch up at first, and she took off her scarf and hung it aside, suppressing the irritation between her brows, "I know, very popular online. Mom, why are you asking about her?"

Lighten Chaser’s popularity online could rival that of a star.

But such fame was not considered noteworthy in their circle.

Celine Tucker was a lady of nobility, and even if Lighten Chaser was highly popular, in the eyes of people like her, it was merely a plaything.

Why would her mother suddenly mention it?

Without any nonsense, Celine Tucker handed her the phone, "Take a look."

Once Caryn saw Audrick Zachmann’s name, she didn’t take it seriously and shifted her line of sight away; her older brother always had been whimsical, not only insisting on mixing with the entertainment circle but also really treating it as a career. It wasn’t too disgraceful, but she had never felt proud of it.

Therefore, she seldom paid attention to entertainment news online.

"Did my brother cause some trouble again?" Caryn glanced at the news and saw Wayne Baker’s name followed by words like ’fighting’ and ’hospitalized,’ but she didn’t finish reading and mocked, "He sure is becoming more and more accomplished."

Celine Tucker wasn’t too fond of her son who rarely came home, and their relationship was relatively indifferent.

Not as close as her relationship with Caryn.

So when her daughter criticized her son, she didn’t stop her but just looked up and encouraged her to continue reading, "Read the rest."

"Okay."

Caryn patiently read through it all and, after understanding the situation’s ins and outs, handed back the phone, "I’ve read it, so what about it?"

Celine Tucker took the phone back from her hands, her expression indescribably complex, and suddenly asked her, "Do you think this Lighten Chaser... could it be Nathalie Quinlan?"

Audrick Zachmann only had one sister, Caryn Zachmann.

Strictly counting, the Zachmann family patriarch’s line had only one person who could be considered a sister.

Nathalie Quinlan!

Since the incident at Shawn Norton’s birthday party, she had not gone out for a meal or chat with friends in a long time, fearing those people would look at her differently.

After all, everyone had originally thought Caryn would successfully become Shawn Norton’s disciple, but it ended up being a face slap.

She herself also felt a loss of face.

Not to mention, the person who took that spot was Nathalie Quinlan.

Moreover, the patriarch had not yet acknowledged Nathalie Quinlan back into the family. If Nathalie were to acknowledge her lineage, the loss of face they suffered that day would only be greater.

Despite not wanting to think so, Celine Tucker remained uneasy, adjusting her fur coat and knitting her brows tightly, "If it’s her..."

She hadn’t finished speaking when Caryn confidently interrupted her, "It can’t be Nathalie. You’re overthinking it. This is clearly a public relations tactic of the entertainment circle. Surely someone from Starhawk Entertainment reached out to Lighten Chaser to have her come forward in a crisis management act."

"Just like that?" Celine Tucker was skeptical.

Caryn was impatient, "Just like that!"

She curled her lips dismissively, "If she were Lighten Chaser, wouldn’t she have said so by now? Why would she need to hide and be secretive?"

Convinced by this statement, the irritation in Celine Tucker’s eyes subsided, and she stopped dwelling on the news, turning to chat with her about Adelle Wafford and school matters.

The next morning.

Nathalie Quinlan had crumpled and thrown away seven or eight balls of paper before she finally managed to write out Master Cadmus’s prescription.

She put down the water-based pen and moved her stiff neck.

A cracking sound came from her neck.

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw her phone light up.

She picked up the phone to look.
