Chapter 1199 It was replaced with Melodyâs voice, which sounded slightly flustered.
âHello, Ninian?â
âMel, whatâs wrong?â Ninian curiously asked.
âNoâNothing. I just met some people who are extra friendly.â Melody seemed to gently exhale and ask,â
Grapie, is something wrong? Do you need my help with anything?â
When Ninian heard Melodyâs soft words, she felt her face turn red from embarrassment.
It seemed that she always caused trouble and came to her sister for help, so her sisterâs first reaction after getting a call from her was to ask what happened.
âAhem, Mel, I just wanted to check in on you.â Ninian shamelessly asked, âAre you in Perthwick now?â
âHow did you know?â Melody asked in surprise, sounding a little strange. âIâm⦠Iâm staying in my juniorâs house.â
âYour junior? Is it Brooklyn?â Ninianâs eyes instantly lit up. With a nosy gaze, she asked, âAre you in his house now? So, was that noise earlier from his family talking?â
âYes,â Melody said. âLuckily you called in time, or else, I wouldnât know how to excuse myself.â
As she spoke, she sounded slightly frightened as if she was not used to such situations.
Ninian could not help but giggle. Did she⦠just meet her inâlaws?
Ninian had seen Brooklynâs gaze when he looked at Melody. But Melody was innocent and obsessed with her career, so she never thought about it in depth. Now that she was in his house, it seemed that she would have some good news soon.
Ninian felt happy for her sister as she chuckled.
âLittle girl, why are you snickering?â Melody raised her eyebrows.
Ninian immediately answered, âNothing! Just help me greet my future⦠uh, Brooklyn.â âFuture Brooklyn? What kind of weird description is that?â Melody found it strange, but she did not pursue it.
She just said, âTell me honestly, why are you calling me?â
âHaha! I really canât hide anything from you,â Ninian said cheekily. âSome time ago, I asked you to help me look for a doctor, right? I was just wondering if youâve received any news from when you investigated Everett at that time.â
She had no plans of looking into Everettâs privacy at first, but as she got to know him, she sensed Everettâs unstable emotions greatly.
He always tended to fall into extremes, deny himself, and have bad thoughts.
She wanted to help him change his mindset, so she planned to look into the root cause.
âIâm currently contacting the doctors, so it might take more time. Regarding Everettâs experience, Harold and I didnât find anything inâdepth. After all, the Craig family isnât small. Itâs very hard to dig out things that they want to cover up without George, Daddy, and Mommy on our side.â
âAh, I see.â Ninian felt a little gloomy and hunched her shoulders.
âHowever, it seemed that a rather big conflict happened in the Craig family a few years ago. The former head of the Craig family passed away, and Rowan Craig was also chased out of the family. I donât know what happened exactly,â Melody said in a deep voice. âI also donât know if this is related to Everettâs disease. Anyway, his family is very complicated. So, I still retain my stance. I donât agree with you being with him.â
âMel, donât say that.â Ninian found it hard to blame Melody. Nevertheless, she pulled herself together and spoke coquettishly. âLook, Hal has personally come to protect us. Donât worry, okay? I believe that Everett can handle everything in his family, including his own disease. Can you trust my judgment too?â
Listening to Ninianâs heartfelt words, Melody could not be ruthless. She sighed before she said, âI wonât stop you from taking the path that you want. But if you feel tired, you can turn back anytime. Iâm always here, and our family will always be behind you.â
âSure! Okay!â It was as if Ninian had been injected with a tonic. She became energetic again, and her tone was sweet and cheerful. âYouâre the best sister in the world! I love you!â
âNaughty girl.â Melody could not help but chuckle.
After Melody hung up, she turned back and saw Brooklyn rush over.
