The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 2271: Finally Learned the Truth

Nathalie hung up the phone call, but the anger stirred up by Celine Tucker and Leonardy Zachmann was still burning in her chest. She looked up and saw him.

Under the hallway light, Amadeus Yancey’s lowered lashes and straight nose bridge were thrown into sharp relief, looking lethally attractive in the interplay of light and shadow.

As if he were a painting done in bold, heavy strokes.

It smoothed out the irritation in her heart all at once.

Amadeus Yancey’s lips curled slightly, as if sensing that her line of sight had paused. With a gentle, focused movement, He pushed back the black hair covering her brow bone, revealing her forehead, and said, "Nathalie, don’t get angry over people who aren’t worth it. They don’t deserve it."

"The best punishment for them is to ignore them."

Nathalie felt His fingertip brush past the center of her brows. Her lashes trembled slightly, and the anger in her heart ebbed away like the tide.

She suddenly wasn’t that mad anymore. She stuffed the Phone back into her pocket, returning to her usual lazy, rebellious self. "Mm, let’s go."

Amadeus Yancey didn’t bring up the Leonardy Zachmann family again. Instead, He called Alfred Garland and said they’d be there soon.

Then He took the Girl to get her wound bandaged.

*

At this moment, the Zachmann Family.

When Leonardy Zachmann handed the Phone to Celine Tucker, He was afraid Celine would say something she shouldn’t, so He turned on the speaker.

Every word Nathalie said was transmitted into His ears without missing a single syllable.

—Has Leonardy Zachmann found out his daughter isn’t his biological Child?

—If your Room Two is willing to wear a green hat, that’s none of my business.

Each word struck like thunder on a clear day, His head buzzing so loudly He almost couldn’t believe any of it was real.

But Celine Tucker’s panicked reaction just confirmed everything Nathalie had said.

"Leonardy, you have to believe me, she’s talking nonsense."

"Of course Caryn is your Child. How could Caryn possibly be someone else’s Child."

"Leonardy, you can’t just ignore Caryn!"

"It’s Nathalie, that walking disaster. She’s doing this on purpose. She’s slandering me! I never said that to her."

"Caryn grew up in the Zachmann Family, grew up by Dad’s side. You all watched her grow up..."

Hendrik Zachmann was also stunned by this "Secrets," unable to recover for a long time.

Caryn Zachmann wasn’t the Zachmann Family’s Child.

No one had ever imagined such Results.

After a brief moment of shock, He quickly calmed down. His heart already had its own judgment—Nathalie wouldn’t lie.

If one of the two of them was lying, then the one lying could only be his... mom.

"Leonardy, you have to believe me." Celine hadn’t expected Nathalie to so easily blurt out these Secrets. Back then, she’d thought Nathalie would be mindful of Mr. Zachmann’s health and wouldn’t dare say it even if She knew. Now she was truly panicking, clutching desperately at Leonardy Zachmann’s Sleeve.

Leonardy Zachmann stayed silent. A full ten minutes passed before He mechanically looked at the woman He had cherished for half His life and said hoarsely, "Then why didn’t you refute her just now?"

"I..." Celine was frightened by His gaze and instinctively dodged it, scrambling to defend herself. "I—I didn’t expect her to talk nonsense like that. I just... reacted too slowly."

Leonardy Zachmann wasn’t an idiot.

He had always thought of himself as a good husband and a good father.

So whenever his wife and daughter made mistakes, He always wanted to shield them.

Only at this moment did He suddenly awaken to what kind of person He was in his niece’s eyes.

The Anger of being deceived and a man’s shame surged up together. He pressed His lips into a tight line, forcefully pried Celine’s hand off, flung her away, and said, "You don’t need to say anything else. Whether she’s my daughter or not, all I need is a paternity test to Set the answer straight!"
