    Chapter 1223


    Everett looked timid and forlorn. It was as if he did not want the girl in front of him to get disappointed in


    him.


    So, he cautiously stepped forward.


    Ninian looked overjoyed.


    Right at the moment before he held her hand, Duncan, who was standing at the side, yelled, “Everett,


    look out!”


    Everett immediately turned, but before he could even see Rowan clearly, Rowan had already stood up


    and kicked him to the floor.


    In the next second, he pounced at Ninian.


    “Ninian!” Harold, who rushed over to the scene, shouted with a cracked voice.


    Ninian watched as Rowan pounced at her. Her face turned pale, and she took a step back. However,


    there was no use.


    He was too quick. Even Duncan, who had rushed over, could not stop him.


    At that critical moment, Everett grabbed his waist. directly from behind at an unimaginable speed


    before he could stab Ninian.


    He mmed him to the side ruthlessly.


    Theynded on the floor with full force.


    Once again, they were on the edge of the open-air


    balcony. They staggered forward and fell off the balcony.


    “Everett!”


    “Everett!”


    A few people shrieked as they watched them fall from the balcony.


    Ninian instinctively wanted to jump off the balcony too, but Harold grabbed her tightly.


    Duncan also rushed forward. He knelt on the floor and

    looked down. It was pitch ck.


    “Everett… No…”


    He turned and shouted, “Go and search for them! Rowan chose this ce, he wouldn’t put himself in a


    dead end. Everett will be fine. Go search for them!”


    His subordinates rushed downstairs.


    Duncan touched his face as his gaze darkened.


    ‘Everett, you got out of hell back then.


    ‘I’m sure you’ll be okay this time!’


    Ninian, who was beside him, burst into tears. She could


    no longer hold them back.


    “Hal… Let me go…”


    She struggled frantically. Her clothes and hair were messy, and her eyes were red and swollen from


    crying. Her gaze was filled with unspeakable sadness.


    With her current appearance, she looked nothing like the little princess of the Winters family.


    Harold’s heart ached as he hugged her tightly and said, You heard Mr. Craig. Everett will be fine!”


    “I want to see him… I want to see him…”


    She kept reaching out.


    Harold then noticed that there was no voiceing out


    of Ninian’s mouth.


    “Grapie? Please don’t scare me…” Harold panicked. What’s wrong? Talk to me.”


    ((


    Ninian was bawling. She opened her mouth, but no words.


    came out.


    Harold waspletely stunned, as if he had been struck by thunderbolts


    “Give me a major-light torchlight and a rope! Quick, get everything ready!” Duncan was standing at the


    side as hemanded his subordinates. He took off his coat. He was getting ready to buckle himself


    up to go down and find Everett.


    The subordinates got in position, but they stopped him.

    “Sir, we’ll go down. You should stay put and wait for our news. You mustn’t down!”


    go


    “That’s right, sir. The Craig family is in your hands!”


    Duncan turned a blind eye and said coldly, “Give them to me!”


    The atmosphere became tense the moment he spoke.


    The subordinates looked at each other. None of them dare to talk back. Instead, they knelt and started


    pleading with him to stay there loudly.


    That floor became disorderly.


    Without everyone’s knowledge, a pale and slender hand climbed to the edge of the balcony.
