Chapter 1132
George had arrived, and he had not come alone.
He was escorted by Raina. Or rather, Raina was forcibly being dragged along by him.
From their seats, his younger siblings shot him inquisitive looks. George remained calm and was
shamelessly unbothered by it.
On the other hand, Raina was very much embarrassed . After she nodded politely at Harold and the
others, she turned her head away and ignored George.
Harold and Ninian gave him a thumbs–up in unison.
The orchestra began their tuning.
Melody’s performance would start soon. The audience
were already seated and waited eagerly.
Ninian was waiting as well, but she suddenly felt
someone’s gaze on her.
She turned her head reflexively and stared at the corner
where the gaze had come from...
But there was nothing there.
It was relatively dark there, and although Ninian saw rows of listeners sitting there, she could not
recognize them or detect anything unusual about them.
Beside her, Alden noticed her odd behavior and asked,” Grapie, what‘s wrong?”
“I felt like someone was watching me.”
“What?” Alden‘s eyes suddenly became vigilant. He
looked in the direction she was looking at.
George and Harold turned to look as well.
When it came to Ninian‘s safety, the Winters family were particularly sensitive.
George got up immediately. “I‘ll go take a look.”
“Hey, George, don‘t!” Ninian stopped him. “Maybe it‘s just my imagination . Mel‘s concert is about to
start, so it‘s not right to go now.”
Raina also said solemnly, “You can let people stare first, and then check as soon as the concert is
over.”
George met her gaze and nodded.
At that moment, the lights on the stage turned on, making the audience gasp. Melody appeared on the
stage in a white formal full–length dress, which was absolutely gorgeous and made her look like a
goddess.
She sat at the piano, with a professional team of accompanists behind her.
Soon, the elegant and beautiful sound of the piano was heard, bringing the audience into a new world.
Time passed slowly.
Even after the concert had finished, everyone was still intoxicated by the music and remained invested
in it despite it having ended.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the hall, a young man wearing a blue hoodie , a peaked cap, and a
mask, could not help but cast his eyes in Ninian‘s direction again.
“Mr. Craig, we should go.” Zayn’s face was a little grave. The Winters family are too sharp. They’ve
already set
their sights on us.”
Everett retracted his gaze, raised his hand, and lowered his hat. He said hoarsely, “Let’s go.”
“(
Zayne was relieved, and, with a few others, escorted him
out from the dark corner.
Ninian seemed to have felt something, so she looked back again. A familiar figure zipped by.
“That looked like… Everett!‘
She was stunned, and she stood up without thinking,
trying to catch up to him.
But someone pulled her arm back.
“Grapie, where are you going?” George asked in
confusion.
George and Alden looked at her, their faces heavy with solemnity.
They looked behind. At this time, the audience had begun to stand up, the whole venue was chaotic ,
and they did not see anything special.
as no
But with how sharp George and Alden were, there was no way they would not have noticed something
wrong.
“Al, stay here and keep an eye on her. I‘ll go have a look myself,” George said,
“No, I’ll go,” Alden said, “You have one more person to take care of, it‘s better if you stay instead.” After
he said this, he gave Raina a meaningful look.
Hearing this, George thought for a moment before he said, “Prioritize your safety, and keep in touch at
all times.”
