The Unveiling of Secret Queen
Chapter 2262: Caryn Zachmann, Are You Even Human Anymore?Caryn looked at the girl, who was hesitating like a mouse fearing a cat, not daring to disobey her, and couldn’t help but throw her head back in a wild laugh, her face full of mockery: "Aren’t you supposed to be strong? Isn’t everyone putting you on a pedestal? What’s the matter, now you don’t even have the courage to take a step forward?"
"Nathalie Quinlan, you’re nothing special either!"
Audrick Zachmann’s handsome face turned ashen, clenching his fists as he stepped forward: "Caryn, what madness is this? Let Grandpa go immediately! Or else..."
"I told you to stop!" Caryn pulled Mr. Zachmann back again, pressing the gleaming knife down harder, staring coldly at Audrick, as if looking at an enemy: "She doesn’t dare to come forward, and you still dare to approach me."
Audrick was so angry that his temples throbbed, at one point wanting to rush over and give her two slaps in the face.
But his arm was grabbed by the girl.
He saw Nathalie Quinlan shake her head at him.
Even though Audrick was filled with a million rages, he had to temporarily hold back, and when he looked at Caryn again, he was completely disappointed: "How can you justify this to Grandpa? You’re the only girl in the family. Grandpa raised you from a young age, treating you better than me and Hendrik."
"Whatever you wanted growing up, you had. When did the family ever mistreat you? Even if Dad and Mom didn’t allow you to buy something, Grandpa would always get it for you in private. He was the one who got you into Caryn Zachmann’s group at Tsinghua University... Caryn, what are you doing now, are you even human?"
Leonardy Zachmann was at a loss for words.
His face was devoid of light; he wished he could put his daughter back in the womb and educate her all over again. His elegant face was filled with gloom, and he was also advising Caryn: "Caryn, let your Grandpa go, stop making trouble, and everything can still be undone. If you keep this up, there’s no turning back for you!"
As a son, he couldn’t forgive his daughter’s actions.
As a father, he hoped his daughter could find her way back, at least have a chance to change.
He knew Nathalie Quinlan too well.
As long as Caryn didn’t target Mr. Zachmann or Audrick, Nathalie wouldn’t bother with her.
But once Caryn crossed the line, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He couldn’t even face Nathalie to plead for her to let it go.
Even Hendrik Zachmann sternly scolded: "Caryn, let him go!"
Caryn looked at her family, who all wore expressions of shock, disbelief, and disappointment while repeatedly asking her to release him.
Her heart felt like it was weighed down by a huge stone, filled with resentment and dissatisfaction, appearing on the verge of madness.
Nathalie Quinlan interrupted everyone at this moment, looking at her calmly: "You couldn’t have taken Mr. Zachmann hostage just to meet me; there must be other demands. Tell me, what do you want? As long as it’s within my power, I’ll try my best to satisfy you. The premise is that you won’t harm Grandpa."
"Why should I not hurt him just because you say so! Why should I listen to you?" Caryn thought she had the upper hand, her attitude extremely forceful.
Nathalie just gave her a faint glance, not being emotionally excited like her, only calmly stating a fact: "Caryn, you should know very well in your heart, if you hurt Grandpa, you won’t be able to walk out of this nursing home today. Don’t test my bottom line."
Caryn felt extremely humiliated and dissatisfied in her heart, yet in the face of the girl’s calm words, she couldn’t find any words to retaliate.
Nathalie was absolutely right.
She didn’t dare to harm Mr. Zachmann.
Not because of family affection, but because she, like Leonardy, understood Nathalie’s nature very well.
As long as she didn’t harm Mr. Zachmann, she might still have a way out today, but if she endangered his life in any way, Nathalie would kill her on the spot.
