Chapter 1126 “Ninian, I‘m done fighting for this relationship,” Raina said earnestly through misty eyes. “We are from two different worlds. We were never destined to be together.”
After she finished speaking, Raina stood up and said,” It‘s getting late, and I need rest. You two should go back and rest, too. You guys don‘t need to come to find me anymore,” she said politely. As she was about to leave, she caught a glimpse of a figure standing by the glass window.
George, dressed in a suit and tie, met her gaze. At that moment, the surrounding noise drowned down and everything became quiet. “George...” Ninian stood up when she also saw George. She was stunned and at a loss.
Harold was not surprised. He was holding an inconspicuous black metallic object in his hand, similar to the Bluetooth earbud George was wearing.
George had heard their conversation.
After exchanging glances for a while, George approached her. He frowned, and a thousand words were written on his expression.
Raina, who had looked indifferent and persistent the whole time, could not bring herself to look into his eyes. She did not dare to wonder what emotions George hid beneath his deep, indifferent gaze.
She could not help but take a couple of steps back when she saw him approaching her. She immediately turned and walked away swiftly, wanting to escape at that very moment.

George stopped walking. He was lost in his thoughts as he watched her walk away.
“George, what are you looking at?! Go chase after her!” Ninian said hurriedly.
Harold joined in as he gave him a push, “George, if you don‘t bring Raina back, don‘t you dare come home!”
George‘s mind was blank, but in the next second, he became determined.
He strode towards Raina rapidly.
Harold and Ninian, who were standing behind him, let out a sigh of relief.
The two of them clapped happily. Ninian said, “Hal, why did George show up all of a sudden? Also, did you secretly record our conversation for him to listen to?”
“Not really. I only put the other side of the earbud in my

room. I thought Alden would find it first, but it turns out, George did. That‘s fate!” Harold smiled.
Ninian was dissatisfied as she wrinkled her nose. “Damn it, Hal. I can‘t trust you at all!”
To Harold, she looked like a cute little chipmunk when she was angry. He smiled and said, “Alright, alright. I lied. I promise I‘ll keep secrets better next time!”

Ninian finally let out a sigh of relief. She then shifted her glance to the direction where Raina and George had left, with a hint of worry in her gaze.
