Chapter 1441

Lie Exposed

Nina looked at Evan. Hesitantly, she claimed with a soft voice, “Daddy, it was Grandpa’s idea!”

“Nonsense! Your grandpa doesn’t like peaches at all. You were merely making an excuse to head out.”

Then Evan took out his phone, played the surveillance footage, and showed it to Nina.

Instantly, her heart dropped. Why is there a surveillance camera in Grandpa’s room?

“Take a look! Did I wrong you?”

“Daddy, installing a surveillance camera in Grandpa’s bedroom is considered violating his privacy.”

“It was to keep an eye on your grandpa’s condition and safety. The Musgrave family’s future depends
on him. In fact, the doctor suggested installing the surveillance camera when he was sick. It wasn’t my
idea.”

Taken aback, Nina froze. She knew nothing about the doctor’s advice.

She lowered her eyes to watch the footage, in which every moment was captured clearly, and even the
conversation could be heard clearly.

As shown in the footage, the duke was sitting upright on the bed. Nina looked at him, asking, “Grandpa,
I have taken care of you for a few days. You’ve reckoned that I must be bored and so you want me to
get some fresh air, right?”

Her grandfather fell silent for a moment. Only then did he beam and nod at her. “If you want to go out,
go ahead!”

“However, Daddy won’t allow that. Can we tell him that you asked me to go out and take a walk?”



He pondered for a while and nodded.

“If Daddy asks about it, just tell him that you’re craving peaches, and I’m heading out to get some for
you. What do you think?”

Hearing her proposal, the duke thought that she wanted some peaches. Thus, he nodded and agreed,
“Okay.”

Elated, Nina jumped up and turned to hop away. After taking two steps, she halted and turned around
to look at her grandfather. She then reminded him again, “If Daddy asks why I take so long to buy
peaches, tell him that you want a rare giant peach and you want it fresh. So, it’s hard to get it because I
need to go around searching for it. Can you remember this, Grandpa?”

Even his eyes were smiling as he nodded tenderly.

Nina, too, returned a smile before leaving the room.

After watching the video clip, Evan locked his gaze on Nina and interrogated, “Did I wrong you?”

Caught red-handed, Nina gripped the hem of her shirt, shaking her head.

“You asked your grandpa to cover for you. So, what did you do outside?”

“I-I went out for a walk to get some fresh air.”

“Really? So, you didn’t go to K Enterprise to look for Chris, right?” Evan stared attentively at Nina,
trying to catch any changes in her expression.

Looking gloomier, Nina shook her head.

“Really?” Evan continued probing with a stern voice.



She raised her head and met Evan’s eyes. Again, she shook her head.

In truth, she did not go to Chris but Felicia instead. After having a word with Felicia, she learned that
Felicia did not marry Chris. At the moment, she was bewildered.

Even when she queried Felicia, the latter only claimed that she and Chris were not meant for each
other and said nothing else.

Hence, Nina was confused. If Chris didn’t marry Felicia, who did he marry, then? Is it possible that he’s
still unmarried because he can’t get over me?

Judging from her expression, Evan assumed that she was unaware of Chris’ incident. Nonetheless, he
knew very well that Nina would investigate the matter thoroughly. Undoubtedly, if he were to leave her
alone, she would secretly look into anything related to Chris.

“Nina, we’re returning to our country tomorrow. Pack your things.”

“Tomorrow? That’s earlier than I expected. Still, Grandpa hasn’t fully recovered yet.”

“Don’t worry. He’ll be coming with us.”

Nina was stunned for a moment before voicing out. “Daddy, I want to stay here for a few more days.”

“What for?”

“I-I…”

She paused as she did not dare to tell him the truth because she knew that Evan was adamant to bring
her back.

Hence, she resignedly acceded to his plan. “All right, Daddy.”



Hearing her reply, Evan felt relieved. If they left K Nation as soon as possible, Nina would not be able
to learn anything about Chris, and Evan reckoned that it was the best for Nina.

On the next day, they headed back to their home country on a private plane at noon.

Due to the time difference between K Nation and C Nation, it was only nine in the morning when they
arrived at C Nation.
