Bonnie immediately chewed on her scarlet lips in an aggrieved manner. “Queenie, what do you mean
by that? Are you suspecting me of taking the jewelry?”
“How many times have you taken my things in the past?” Queenie retorted.
Bonnie’s eyes immediately reddened at those words. “Queenie, I’m your sister! How can you believe in
an outsider but not in your own little sister!? Why would I want to take your jewelry? Besides, our
parents will buy me anything I want! It’s not like I can’t afford to buy jewelry worth hundreds of
thousands!”
“Even so, you shouldn’t falsely accuse me either, Miss Bonnie! You need to have evidence for your
accusation!” Courtney wailed in tears.
Queenie turned to look at the man standing beside her. “Alright, I need to settle some family matters
now. I’ll bring you upstairs so that you can sleep on my bed for a while.”
Nigel nodded and followed her upstairs. Bonnie stood downstairs, looking at his tall and straight figure
going upstairs. It felt as though her heart had been firmly caught like a fish on a hook.
As a man, he exuded a charming aura that made a person swoon at first sight. It was not until she met
Nigel that she suddenly realized how small her world had been. How could I have fallen for somebody
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfrom an ordinary lineage like Leslie? My goal should have been somebody like Nigel instead. He is a
man on the level of the Gods.
Queenie’s room was spruce and tidy. Moreover, there was a faint fragrance in the air. It was Nigel’s first
time visiting her bedroom, so he began to explore her bedroom. He examined the photos hanging on
the wall that depicted her from childhood to adulthood.
This woman is truly the prime example of beauty, even from the time she was a child. There was not a
single flaw in her appearance. Rather, she seemed to become livelier over the years.
When Queenie noticed that he was scrutinizing her photos on the wall, she felt a little embarrassed but
generously allowed him to look at the photos all he wanted. She closed the door and said, “I’m going to
settle that matter now. Why don’t you sleep for a bit? It shouldn’t be too noisy upstairs.”
“Go ahead!” Nigel nodded in affirmation.
When she went back downstairs, she finally realized that her parents were not at home. Thus, she
turned to Courtney and asked, “Mrs. Lowman, where are my parents?”
“The Paynes heard that Leslie delivered some jewelry to our house as gifts, and they were so furious
that they refused to let Leslie come to our house and testify. As a result, our parents had to go to the
Payne Residence to invite them over in person,” Bonnie answered grumpily. “It’s all your fault. The
good relationship between our families has been destroyed by your actions.”
“Bonnie, come with me to the study,” Queenie said to Bonnie.
Bonnie narrowed her eyes at those words. Nevertheless, she was curious about what Queenie had to
say and followed Queenie into the study.
Queenie closed the door to the study behind her before she turned around and spoke in a serious tone.
“Bonnie, I’m asking you to be a good person in the future. Stop causing so much trouble. I know that
you took the jewelry. Please return them yourself. I can say that I accidentally misplaced them, okay?”
“Who are you to say that I’m the one who took the jewelry? Do you have evidence?”
“Stop pretending. Both you and I know the truth. This is just a way for you to fabricate charges against
Mrs. Lowman so that she will be forced out of our house. I will take care of this matter peacefully as
long as you hand the jewelry over,” Queenie insisted calmly with the mentality of not wanting to cause
further uproar over this matter.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmUnfortunately, Bonnie was determined to cause a huge fuss. That was especially true now that Nigel
had come to their house. She was even more motivated than before. Moreover, she wondered whether
he would be annoyed and disgusted by their messy family affairs. If he was disgusted by the Silverstein
Family, then his relationship with Queenie would eventually fracture and fall apart.
Even if she could not marry Nigel, she was going to ensure that Queenie could never marry into the
Manson Family either.
“It’s true that I don’t like Mrs. Lowman, but there’s no reason for me to falsely accuse her either. Don’t
you know that her family is in desperate need of money? She might have been the one who stole the
jewelry after all.” Bonnie vehemently denied her actions.
Looking at how protective Queenie was toward Courtney, Bonnie became even more adamant to land
Courtney in jail.
“Mrs. Lowman is getting on in age. Furthermore, she has wholeheartedly served our family for so many
years. Please stop trying to hurt her.” Queenie’s tone was pleading.
“Queenie Silverstein! You’re nice to everybody except me! Your little sister is nothing compared to an
outsider. Well, I’ve fully understood my position in your heart.” Bonnie sneered and crossed her arms
over her chest. “In any case, the police will be coming soon. Even if Mrs. Lowman cannot be found
guilty of her crime, I will give her a stern warning for her actions. You won’t be able to save her.”
“You…” Queenie had to fight the urge to slap Bonnie in the face upon hearing those words.
