Chapter 1588 Bonnie’s Secret
“You’re amazing, Queenie. Besides our company, who else could the Manson Group give this project to? He’s your
boyfriend, after all.” Bonnie made a snarky remark.
“You can’t put it that way. Nigel’s family is part of the business too,” Maggie reminded her daughter.
Queenie had also asked Nigel about this earlier that afternoon, but he insisted on giving it to Silverstein Enterprise.
However, Queenie wasn’t worried, for she had seen the company’s landscape construction works and knew they
could complete the Manson Group’s project.
After drinking two glasses of wine, Brandon accompanied Maggie out for a stroll. The servants had all gone home,
and Queenie was in her dad’s study, looking at the reports from work.
Just then, Bonnie came into the study.
“Queenie, can you teach me how to read these reports? I want to learn how to manage the company too!”
“If you want to learn how to manage a company, you should start with the basics before interning at the company.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOtherwise, it will be very difficult for you,” Queenie suggested.
However, Bonnie wasn’t the learning type. She had stopped going to school after finishing junior high. Although she
disguised herself to look like a rich young lady, she was someone without much knowledge.
Not only did she hate going to school and taking exams, but she didn’t even have the patience to read a book. She
would rather spend time watching television shows and going shopping, indulging herself in her materialistic
happiness.
“You aren’t willing to teach me, are you, Queenie? You’re afraid that I’d compete with you for Dad’s company!” She
deliberately twisted Queenie’s words.
“That’s not what I mean.” Queenie frowned.
“That’s exactly what you mean.” Bonnie sneered.
“Bonnie, this family will never restrict your food and clothing, but I hope that you can respect Dad’s decision of who
gets to manage the company.”
“Dad will pick you, of course! To him, you’re better and far more knowledgeable than me, but we’re both Silverstein
daughters, yet I’m the more pitiful one! Since young, I never had the chance to receive proper education, and my
living conditions weren’t as wealthy and prestigious as yours.” Bonnie always used her childhood to belittle herself
and evoke guilt in Queenie.
Before this, Queenie would indeed feel guilty whenever she heard Bonnie devaluing herself and would feel sorry for
Bonnie’s unfortunate childhood. But now, Queenie was unfazed by it.
“I still have to go through these reports. Head back to your room!” Queenie ordered.
“Queenie, I’m telling you this right now—it doesn’t matter if you’re the one managing the company or not, all of
Dad’s assets will be equally shared among us,” Bonnie emphasized. In actuality, this was the reason she had come
to look for Queenie.
Hearing that, Queenie couldn’t help but feel angry. “The most important thing now is Dad’s health. How could you
think about splitting his assets?”
Subconsciously, Bonnie felt flustered. “That’s not what I meant.”
“Bonnie Silverstein, you are a member of this family, so why don’t you stop thinking about money every day and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmstart paying attention to our aging parents, as well as the responsibilities we have to take up?” Queenie felt
bothered by Bonnie’s earlier words.
However, Bonnie couldn’t share Queenie’s sentiment. She didn’t belong to this family, and there was no blood
relation between her and the members of this family. More importantly, she just wanted to take everything without
exerting any effort.
“I won’t bother you anymore, Queenie.” After saying that, Bonnie turned around and left. When she returned to her
room, the makeup on her face made her feel uncomfortable, so she decided to clean her face. Just as she was
about to apply moisturizer to her face, she widened her eyes in shock upon noticing a small dent on her forehead.
Though it wasn’t very obvious, it was one of the aftereffects of her forehead filling.
At once, she scanned her face from left to right, feeling flustered. How could there be a dent so soon? If Queenie
sees this, she will certainly become suspicious.
While clutching her chest, Bonnie decided she must undergo recovery surgery soon. She couldn’t afford any flaws
on her face, after all.
She had no plans of telling Lisbeth about this either. Lisbeth was just an ignorant woman who didn’t know anything,
and Bonnie wanted to deal with this matter alone. Now that she had money, she could find a better plastic surgeon.
With that, she gently pulled away the hair behind her ear. There was still an evident scar where she had removed
her cartilage. This was also one of her darkest secrets she could never reveal to Queenie.
