Chapter 1216

Everett's eyes were already red at the moment. He was like a beast that had targeted his prey, totally irrational.

He moved forward again and lifted Rowan who was lying on the ground motionlessly. Then, he raised his hand and held it like a knife in an attempt to ruthlessly hit Rowan's neck artery.

"Everett! Be careful!"

Everett turned back, and his pupils instantly shrank.

The bodyguards rushed forward from the side, and all of them held sharp knives.

Everett curled his lips into a sneer. "You're finally here."

He knew it. Why would a timid person like Rowan make such a desperate attempt to fight him alone? sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He neatly avoided them, while Rowan also took this opportunity to run back to the bodyguards' protection.

Everett spat out some blood.

He was also hit during the fight, but compared to Rowan's injuries, his injuries did not matter.

Everett raised his hand to wipe the blood off the corners of his lips before he snorted and said, "Rowan Craig, you're still shameless as usual."

Rowan narrowed his eyes. He also did not argue with Everett. He just ruthlessly ordered his subordinates. "Kill him!"

As he spoke, he moved to the side and avoided the fight.

Ninian's complexion became pale when she saw that a large group of bodyguards surrounded Everett in the middle with sharp weapons. Harold also narrowed his eyes, and he was about to take action.

But Everett suddenly spoke.

He stared at Rowan's face through everyone else in the surrounding area.

"Do you think I'd still be that stupid in the past?"

Rowan's pupils instantly shrank, and he thought that it was bad.

He immediately turned back, looked at the back, and his expression instantly changed.

Harold and Ninian also turned back and looked over. They saw that another group of bodyguards in black rushed inside from the back.

The person who led the group was Zayn.

Rowan was so focused on his narrow goal that he neglected potentially greater danger.

Everett had used himself as bait to lure Rowan and his subordinates, while Zayn had taken his subordinates and cleaned up all of Rowan's men in their surroundings. Everett said he wanted to catch Rowan personally, and it had never been a brag.

The expressions of Rowan and his people who were surrounded on the inside became extremely dark at this time.

Rowan could no longer smile. He stared at Everett with a profound gaze, and he winced his teeth.

"Little brat, you've really grown up!" He ruthlessly said.

Everett raised his hand, and everyone else forcefully moved closer. The area that they surrounded was getting smaller.

Zayn walked to Harold and Ninian, and he said, "Mr. Winters, Miss Winters, please go to the banquet hall."

Something flashed in Harold's eyes as if he understood something. He cast a deep glance at Everett before he pulled Ninian away.

However, Ninian refused to move. "Hang on! Why are we leaving?" she asked.

Zayn said, "If you're here, you'll distract Mr. Craig.

Harold also added, "Ninian, let's get out of here. It's not safe."

"What are they planning to do? What does Everett want to do?" Ninian looked slightly anxious.

Everett clearly had the upper hand this time. Why did he want to dismiss her suddenly?

There was only a possibility: There would be danger later.

It was so dangerous that Everett might not be able to protect her even though he brought so many people there.

Ninian came from a reputable family, and she had seen countless internal family rivalries and power struggles, so she was also very sensitive. This might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface. Since Rowan dared to come out and face the Craig family after so many years, even involving the Winters family members, he must have full confidence.

Rowan still had a backup plan.

If it were any other time, Ninian would wisely leave and not hold Everett back.
