Chapter 1134 Aldenâs sentence immediately drew everyoneâs attention to Ninian.
George was the first to ask, âGrapie , whatâs going on?â
Harold and Melody also approached her with obvious worry and puzzlement in their eyes.
Ninian nervously clenched her fists under her siblingsâ stares and even felt like cowering a little.
âWhat do I do? Should I tell them my theory? That person really looked like Everett! But how could Everett have been here during the concert? If I really told them, then are they going to investigate Everett one after another? Will this give Everett more trouble?â
âGrapie, you have to tell me the truth,â Alden said with a serious face, âThe person just now is definitely not an ordinary person. His hacking skills are about the same level as mine, which means that he definitely has someone powerful supporting him. This kind of person has even attended Melodyâs concert because he has his sights set on you. Iâm certain this wonât spell anything good for you, and at the same time, itâs not a trivial matter!â
Although Alden was warning her with objective facts, his remarks made Ninian recall something.
If anyone fits into the category of the âpowerful person supporting him,â that would be Everett.
Since Everett seemed to be hiding something, did that mean that he did not want his identity to be discovered?
Ninian bit her lip, and there was conflict in her eyes.
âTo speak, or not to speak?â
âNinian!â George said solemnly, with a hint of imposition.
Ninianâs eyes turned red.
It was the first time she was persecuted by her family who had always loved her, and it was the first time she heard her elder brother speak in such a tone.
Ninian pursed her mouth sadly and raised her head. Tears were already gathering in her clear and innocent eyes.
Georgeâs next words instantly died in his throat.
Alden was also at a loss for a moment, and panic flashed across his brows.
Harold was so distressed that he stepped forward and shielded her behind him. He confronted George and Alden. âWhy are you being so mean?! If the trail went cold, then find another one! The security footage got auto âdeleted, then find a way to recover it! What use is there in bullying your own little sister?! Youâre crossing the line!â
Melody also looked at the two of them disapprovingly, hugged Ninianâs shoulders, and said, âThatâs right! George, Al, youâve really crossed the line! Since that person has left after listening to the concert, it proves that he has no ill will at all. Look at Grapieâs reaction, itâs probably a friend she knows. She must be sure that the other party wonât hurt her, thatâs why sheâs not saying anything. Why are you putting her on the spot?â
Raina also shook her head. âYou know why George and I separated in the first place, right? It was because he treated others unreasonably harshly, and I got pissed off!â
George was speechless.
Facing everyoneâs bombardment, George and Alden could only raise their hands to surrender.
âAlright, I wonât ask anymore. Grapie, just tell us if you want to, itâs fine if you donât,â Alden said.
George also spoke up with a bit of helplessness on his stern face, âDonât cry now. Itâs our fault. We wonât ever be this mean to you anymore.â
Ninian sniffed, a little embarrassed, and her face flushed. In fact, she did not blame them for being so aggressive toward her, she just could not control her emotions, and the sadness was a conditioned reflex.
She walked out from behind Harold and raised her eyes to look at George and Alden, her blue eyes were full of solemnity. âGeorge, Al, I know youâre worried about my safety, so you got nervous. I think I know the person who came this time, but I canât reveal his identity, please forgive me. You donât have to worry about this matter, he has absolutely no malicious intent, and Iâll take good care of myself. I wonât get hurt again.â
George and Alden looked at each other and nodded, âWe believe in you.â
Only then did Ninian breathe a sigh of relief. She smiled brilliantly, and even her eyes crinkled up in happiness.
When she was not paying attention , George and Alden both had a spark of contemplation in their deep eyes.
