Chapter 787
Natalie Castillo put down her chicken leg and sunflower seeds for the first time.
She was hopping up and down anxiously on the sofa.
Her eyes were fixed intently on Evelyn Ross.
"Tell me, tell me!"
Evelyn and Alexander Vance exchanged a look.
They both turned their gaze to Natalie.
Evelyn beckoned her over.
Natalie immediately scurried closer.
She pressed her ear to Evelyn's mouth.
Evelyn leaned close to her ear.
"Sebastian Truman told me..."
Natalie's eyes sparkled.
"Go on!"
"Should I wash my ear first?"
Evelyn twitched her mouth.
"That's called 'lending an attentive ear.'"
"It's not literally washing your ear."
"Oh, oh, oh."
"Then I'm all ears."
"Hurry up and tell me!"
"I'm dying of curiosity!"
Natalie lowered her voice.
"You have no idea."
"How many times I've clashed with Scarlett King over the years."
"I really, really want to know who she is."
Evelyn raised an eyebrow.
"That curious, huh?"
Natalie nodded vigorously.
"Yes, yes, yes~"
"Then I'll tell you..."
Evelyn drew out her words.
Finally, she said.
"It's a secret."
Natalie froze.
Her eyes widened.
She stared at Evelyn in disbelief.
She looked like a cat with its fur puffed up.
"Ahhh!"
"You're messing with me!"
Evelyn nodded calmly.
"Yep."
Natalie was furious.
"How can you not tell me?"
"I've shared all my secrets with you."
"How can you not tell me!"
Evelyn looked at her.
"Have you shared with me?"
"Then tell me."
"What is the Sterling Family's secret?"
"Where is the Sterling Family?"
Natalie was speechless.
She puffed up her cheeks angrily.
Her chest rose and fell.
Finally, she stamped her foot and turned to leave.
She looked like a wronged child.
"I'm not talking to you anymore!"
Evelyn watched her walk to the door.
Natalie suddenly stopped.
She whirled around.
She rushed back to the coffee table.
She bent down and grabbed the sunflower seeds and chicken leg.
She stamped her foot again.
"I'm really not talking to you!"
"Okay."
Evelyn's response was very calm.
Natalie's eyes reddened.
She stormed out the door, fuming.
Alexander looked at Evelyn.
"Teasing her is fun?"
A smile appeared on Evelyn's face.
"That little fox is very clever."
"I always see her driving others crazy."
"I just wanted to see her get all worked up."
Alexander chuckled softly.
"I thought you trusted her."
"That you'd tell her everything."
Evelyn shook her head.
"How could I?"
"She's a fox."
"Her motives aren't that simple."
"I don't trust anyone easily."
Alexander nodded.
"Remember that."
"What you'll face in the future."
"Could be very dangerous."
"So I hope you can protect yourself."
"Always put yourself first."
Evelyn was taken aback.
Alexander spoke again.
"If necessary."
"Me and Chloe."
"Are people you can abandon."
Evelyn frowned.
"Have you noticed something?"
"Or found out something?"
Alexander shook his head.
"No."
"I've just heard the legends about the Sterling Family."
"I know the Sterling Family isn't full of saints."
"Your personality."
"Won't get along peacefully with the Sterling Family."
"One day in the future."
"If the Sterling Family uses me or Chloe to threaten you."
"To force you to do something you don't want."
"Don't compromise."
Evelyn's jaw tightened.
She didn't know why Alexander was saying this.
But after he finished.
A strange sense of urgency enveloped her.
The Sterling Family had nine heirs.
The currently appearing Nicole Sterling's codename was unknown.
She had long since sided with Natalie Castillo.
Natalie Castillo was the Fox.
Her sister Grace Sterling was the Rabbit.
And that Lion roaming within the country.
Besides these four.
There were five others.
These five were scattered across the world.
There were currently no leads.
She had to compete with these enemies, whose identities were unknown.
For the elusive Sterling Family inheritance rights.
Only then could her mother Sophia Ashcroft be safe.
Just thinking about it.
Made the task feel incredibly daunting.
She slowly leaned her head.
Against Alexander's shoulder.
"Chloe is at the Valentine family."
"She should be having a good time, right?"
Alexander lowered his gaze.
"I think your father likes her a lot."
"He keeps her by his side every day."
"This also means your sister is by our father's side."
Chloe's full name was Chloe Davis.
After moving to the Valentine family.
She gradually became bolder.
Perhaps it was the bond of blood.
She loved being with Mr. Valentine the most.
Evelyn happened to be busy.
So she had been leaving her sister's orphan.
Little Chloe at the Valentine family.
Evelyn looked at Alexander again.
"Do you think."
"The person Sebastian mentioned."
"Is really Scarlett King?"
"I don't know."
Alexander said.
"We need to investigate."
"After all, it's all just Sebastian's word."
Evelyn nodded.
Just then.
Her phone rang.
Evelyn glanced at it.
She answered casually.
"Dad, what's up?"
Her interactions with Mr. Valentine had become.
Very relaxed and natural.
The next moment.
She heard Mr. Valentine's serious voice.
"Evelyn."
"A man came to the door looking for you."
Evelyn was startled.
"Who?"
"He says."
"He is Chloe's biological father."
