As for her, she and Nigel had known each other for so long, yet he never mentioned bringing her to meet his parents. Does that mean he doesn’t value our relationship?
The more she thought about it, the more certain she was that Nigel had side chicks and she was only one of them. Who knows how many more women he has? Queenie, you would’ve been better off being single than being treated this way.
In the room adjacent to Queenie’s, Bonnie was so excited that she could not sleep. Her wish had finally come true—Queenie and Nigel were about to break up!
Soon, it was dawn. At 6.30AM, Nigel sat up from the couch and checked the time on his phone. Then, he went straight into the bathroom to wash up and leave Julian’s home. Subsequently, he drove toward the Silverstein Residence.
In the meantime, a piece of breaking news posted at 3.00AM was now trending on the Internet. It was an exclusive involving Julian, and it left his fans in a state of shock. Is this the man we idolize?
Such shocking news would naturally cause an uproar when trending on the web. Unbeknownst to the drama, Nigel was still driving when he received a call from Ashley. It was rare for him to answer a call so early in the morning. “Hello! What’s up?”
“Mr. Manson, have you seen the news? One of the media companies managed to take a picture of you and Mr. Gilmore and post it online. Also, they wrote all sorts of nonsense about it.”
“What did they write about?”
“They said that you guys—”
“Cut to the chase.”
“They said you guys are a couple.”
Nigel felt like he was about to explode in anger. “Which media company posted it? Hurry up and deal with them.”
“The news was posted at 3.00AM and is now the top three trending news on the Internet. Also, it’s the top news in the entertainment section.”
“You guys settle this. I have something else I need to do.” After saying that, he hung up and focused on driving.
At the Silverstein Residence, Queenie composed herself and decided to accompany her father to the company that morning. She had decided to forget about her romantic life and focus on her career, which was the most important priority right now. Her new goal now was to be a happy and rich single woman.
At 8.00AM, breakfast was served at the dining table.
Bonnie had woken up early as well because she wanted to see if Nigel would look for Queenie or not. She would have been sleeping if it had not been for this matter! However, she was so excited that she could not fall asleep. Judging by Nigel’s expression when he left yesterday, he will come over this morning and catch Queenie when she leaves for work.
Therefore, she had ordered the servants to notify her immediately if someone came. Just as she had expected, a servant came knocking at 8.00AM to notify her, “Miss Bonnie, Young Master Nigel is here. He’s standing outside the gate.”
Meanwhile, Bonnie took a sip of her red wine and questioned, “Where is Queenie?”
“Miss Queenie is still upstairs. I just went up to notify her for breakfast.”
A smile appeared on Bonnie’s lips as she sped toward the small gate by the courtyard, where she saw an anxious-looking Nigel.
“Bonnie, open the gate for me.” He was now treating Bonnie even nicer as he was desperate for her assistance.
She felt her heart skip a beat when she heard that, but she knew it was all for show. Nigel only said that to make her happy so that she would open the gate for him. “Young Master Nigel, why did you come back? Didn’t Queenie say she didn’t want to see you again?”
“I have something to say to her.” Nigel pushed the gate. “Please let me in.”
“Do you know how much Queenie cried last night? Young Master Nigel, she said that if you want to see her, you have to kneel before her and apologize. Or else, I can’t let you in.”
She planned to humiliate Nigel in Queenie’s name so that he would understand how difficult it was to please Queenie. How could an ordinary, proud man stand such a humiliating and unreasonable request?
Of course, that man would turn around and leave immediately! Nigel is such a noble and proud man, so he definitely won’t kneel before a woman to ask for her forgiveness. No matter how much he loves Queenie, he won’t be able to accept such humiliation.
In the meantime, a servant brought over a tub of water to wipe the pillars in the hall when she noticed Queenie standing there. The servant wanted to address her, but Queenie gestured for the servant to keep quiet, to which the servant quickly obeyed.
While standing in her spot, Queenie could hear every word of the conversation being shared at the gate. In other words, she heard the wicked request Bonnie had asked of Nigel and she frowned. However, she did not immediately stop them.
“Young Master Nigel, if you’re unwilling to kneel before Queenie and ask for her forgiveness, you should leave now so that my parents won’t see you. It’d be embarrassing if they chased you out again!” Bonnie nicely reminded him.
“First, let me see Queenie. Then, I’ll apologize to her however she sees fit.” Nigel’s gaze was firm and showed no intentions of backing down.
Bonnie was dumbfounded and blinked her eyes while staring at him in disbelief. This man must be crazy! With his identity, he can have any woman he wants, but he’s actually willing to kneel before Queenie.
It was then she suddenly looked forward to seeing how Queenie would drive him away, so she feigned being nice and suggested, “Since your feelings for Queenie are so sincere, I’ll let you in! When you see her later, remember to not say anything and just kneel on the ground and apologize. That will work.”
Nodding, Nigel responded, “Alright. Please open the door.”
Once she opened the door, he went straight into the house. Meanwhile, Bonnie was trailing behind with her hand covering her face, ready to enjoy the show.
Just as Nigel came to the steps outside the hall, his happiness replaced the gloom on his face because the woman he so desperately wanted to see was standing right before him.
The attire Queenie wore today was in the colors black and white. She wore a black shirt with a white- fitting skirt with her hair down. Her temperament was instantly magnified, and her entire figure exuded an awe-inspiring and majestic aura.
The surprise in Nigel’s eyes turned into awe as he lowered his head to look at the floor, finding the perfect spot to kneel. Right when he was about to pull his pant legs, Queenie reprimanded with wide eyes, “Are you really going to kneel? Why are you taking Bonnie’s joke so seriously?”
On the other hand, Bonnie was eager to see what exciting drama might unfold, but she did not expect to see Queenie at the entrance. She guiltily turned around and was about to escape when Queenie caught her and ordered, “Bonnie, stop right there.”
Standing in her spot, Bonnie was instantly displeased and turned around to glare at Queenie. “What do you want?”
“If you ever spout nonsense again, I won’t let you off so easily,” Queenie warned coldly.
Nigel also glanced at Bonnie. Although he did not believe a single word she said, he still cooperated with her to get inside the Silverstein Residence. Yet, when he saw Queenie, he was sincerely willing to kneel before her and ask for her forgiveness.
Following that, Bonnie turned around and left while Queenie grabbed her bag and was ready to leave for the company.
“Queenie, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have lied to you. In fact, I wasn’t at the company but at a restaurant having dinner with my mom and her friends,” Nigel immediately apologized. Ever since he figured out the reason, explaining everything to Queenie had become his top priority.
With a hook of her lips, Queenie turned to face him while sneering. “I just happened to be at that same restaurant last night, but I don’t think you were with your mom. That young woman is the real reason you were there, am I right?”
The only feeling Nigel felt at that moment was anxiety. So, this is what made Queenie so angry last night. Was she at the same restaurant? Did she see me and Ingrid together?
Ignoring him, Queenie headed for her car, but he quickly caught up with her and continued to explain, “Queenie, last night’s dinner was arranged by my mom. She didn’t tell me it was a blind date, and I only found out about it when I got there. I tried to leave, but my mom wouldn’t let me. I also told her that I already have someone I like and that I already have a girlfriend, but my mom won’t believe me… Queenie, you can shout at me however you want.” After saying that, he oppressively grabbed her arms and forbade her from leaving.
With nowhere to go, she turned to face him and revealed an angry countenance on her stunning face. “Nigel, do you see three words on my face?”
“Huh? What three words?” He was dumbfounded.
“Easy to fool,” Queenie said through gritted teeth.
