Chapter 464 The First Lady
Everyone's nerves were on edge.
"Who is it this time?" Eric asked through gritted teeth, his brows furrowed.
He regretted that he and Edward had left in such a hurry, bringing insufficient manpower, and were unable to intimidate them.
Billy was nothing; if this were in Mugden, even the mayor would have to show him some respect!
"You're a grown man, yet you can't keep your cool when something happens." Ulysses glanced mockingly at Eric, the cigarette in his mouth bobbing up and down with a calm demeanor, but his hand gripping the gun was tense. "I don't care who it is, one or many, I'll handle them all."
"True." Eric nodded.
At this moment, Evelyn and the others realized that the entire parking lot was sealed off.
Two rows of guards in royal uniforms quickly lined up on both sides, exuding an overwhelming presence.
Seeing this, Billy hurriedly hid to the side, saluting with a serious expression.
"Looks like a big shot is coming, with such a grand entrance." Ulysses whistled.
"Seems like it's someone from the royal family. From what I know, there are people within the royal family who are shielding local arms dealers. Corruption in Torontow's officialdom is quite severe."
Landon's expression was somber, but his hand on Evelyn's shoulder was warm and strong, giving her a great sense of security. "Don't be afraid, Evelyn. No matter who comes to cause trouble, I'll make sure you get out safely."
Evelyn took a deep breath and placed her hand on Landon's arm. "No, we face this together. Landon, I'm no longer the little princess you all need to pamper. I can protect you, too."
"Yes, I almost forgot." Landon smiled warmly, his eyes full of tenderness. "Our Evelyn has grown up."
True love was when, in the eyes of those who loved you, you were always a child.
A luxury car came to a steady stop, and the guards immediately stepped forward to respectfully open the doors on both sides.
People got out from both the left and right sides simultaneously.
From the left emerged Juniper Tudor, dressed in a blue silk embroidered gown, adorned with jewels, exuding an air of immense wealth.
"Your Royal Highness!"
Everyone knelt on one knee in unison, leaving Evelyn and the others momentarily stunned.
At this moment, the person on the right also stepped out gracefully.
She had delicate features, an elegant and beautiful demeanor, exuding an aura of nobility that commanded respect without anger.
She had a graceful figure, wearing a pure white custom-made suit, with a beautiful brooch adorned with white diamonds on her chest, sparkling in the dim light.
It was a birthday gift designed and given to her by Alexa three years ago.
She cherished it dearly.
Seeing Juniper and the woman walking over arm in arm, Billy hurriedly bowed deeply.
"Good day, First Lady!"
He never expected that Juniper would have a close relationship with the First Lady of Aurora Isle, like best friends!
"Nancy, Nancy!"
Evelyn couldn't help but call out when she saw Nancy, her eyes red with emotion.
Landon and Ulysses were also stunned. "Nancy?"
"Evelyn!" Nancy, emotional and with tears in her eyes, looked at her family, her voice trembling. "Landon, Ulysses!"
"Oh my God!" Juniper covered her mouth in surprise, looking at them. "Nancy, are they your family? It's unbelievable! No wonder you insisted on bringing me to meet them! It's so wonderful to see your family in my country!""I've always said I wanted to take you to Hameen to visit my home. I never expected to meet my brothers and sister under such circumstances. I'm just as surprised."
Nancy temporarily composed herself and walked gracefully towards Evelyn and the others.
As she passed by Billy, her cold eyes turned sharply, glaring at the previously arrogant Billy with a chilling gaze.
That look, with the authority of someone in a high position, made people want to submit to her.
Billy's head drooped, his legs weak.
He never imagined that the First Lady of Aurora Isle would be related to these so-called criminals!
"Nancy, why did you come in person?" Evelyn hurriedly stepped forward, holding Nancy's hand tightly with tears in her eyes, full of worry. "It's so dangerous. You and Wade have such important positions in Aurora Isle. Any activities outside your schedule require heavy security and close protection. How could you come to Aurora Isle on your own? Did Wade agree?"She had contacted Nancy before, but only to ask her to use her connections to inform the local royal family to avoid any obstacles in their actions. She never expected Nancy to come in person!
"I was too worried about you. As soon as I heard the news, I canceled all my plans and came over." Nancy's eyes were anxious. "Evelyn, are you hurt? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, and so are Landon and Ulysses. It's just..." Evelyn bit her lip, lowering her long lashes.
"Did something happen to Mr. Wellington?" Nancy's heart tightened.
"Aunt Donna's nephew, Adrian, is also an excellent doctor. He's doing everything he can to save Mr. Wellington now." Landon's jawline was tense, showing his anxiety.
"That's good. I've heard of Adrian. With him there, Mr. Wellington will be fine. Evelyn, don't worry."
Nancy's eyes were red as she gently wiped away Evelyn's tears. "You always said Mr. Wellington was as tough as steel, extraordinary. With Mr. Mays' superb medical skills, he'll definitely pull through."
"Besides, he hasn't even given you the grand wedding you deserve! Three years ago, it was a secret marriage. If he wants to marry you now, it has to be a wedding that everyone envies!"
"He hasn't given you anything yet. How could he dare to die?"
Evelyn's heart raced, her face blushing with shyness. "Let's wait until he wakes up. Besides, who said I want to marry him?"
After a brief moment of warmth, Nancy held Evelyn's hand and coldly stared at Billy. "My brothers and sister were just here in Torontow for a vacation, to relax. I didn't expect your police to give them such a high-level reception. We're truly flattered."
Billy gritted his teeth, cold sweat streaming down.
