Chapter 208 I Know My Limit

Hearing that, Whitney quickly nodded in agreement. “Even though Mrs. Gardner doesn’t have any bad intentions, I

reckon you two should explain it clearly. Or else, no one will believe your words, now that the DNA paternity test

result is just sitting there as proof.”

Nicole somehow started to feel resigned. She didn’t even feel half as helpless as she did when she was accused of

plagiarizing a design draft before.

After all, she had complete certainty of what happened in the past. But the thing that Anna had misunderstood

now…

Nicole didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when she thought about it. Just how did such a simple misunderstanding

spiral out of control?

“Mhm.” Nicole nodded and continued, “President Gardner also only held back on explaining because of me. I have

to repay him for his help.”

She only stood up after the dizziness subsided.

She then reached out and massaged her forehead. She was most probably feeling uncomfortable because she had

been staying up late these days to complete the design draft.

Whitney also felt more relieved then when Nicole’s condition didn’t get worse.

“Your health is still the most important thing, Miss Nicole. No matter how grand Miss Gardner’s 18th birthday party

may be, it can’t compare to your health.”

Knowing that Whitney was worried about her, Nicole nodded and waved her hand. “I know my limits. I got it.”

…

At night at the Gardner Residence, Anna was still drunk with joy about Hayden being her grandson, or so she

thought.

She took the paternity test result and showed it to Benjamin, and after he glanced at it, his face turned solemn. He

only spoke after a while.

“Did Colton give you this?”

Anna shook her head in response and gushed, “I found this myself. Colton would never have admitted to it if I

didn’t!”

Benjamin continued to look at the report for a long time before he slowly closed his eyes, “I will get Richard to

properly conduct a test in a few days. We will take Hayden into our family if it is true.”

Anna also thought the same. It would be better to have this investigated thoroughly. After all, the Gardners couldn’t

possibly pass on their large inheritance to someone who wasn’t one of theirs.

“Alright. Richard will also be attending Wendy’s birthday party in a few days. I will call him later and have him come

back a few days earlier,” Anna said with a smile.

Richard Jenkins, Anna’s nephew from her side of the family, had been running a private hospital abroad. He had

top-notch medical skills that were recognized internationally.

As soon as they finished talking, someone suddenly walked in outside—it was Queenie and a man they didn’t

recognize.

Not liking what he was seeing, Benjamin left for his room after he took a glance at them.

Queenie was not embarrassed at all by the treatment. Instead, she slowly approached Anna and when her eyes fell

on the older woman, she smiled and asked, “May I know where Wendy is, Mrs. Gardner?”

As Anna looked at her, she suddenly felt pity for Queenie. If the child really was Colton’s, Colton might have only

taken Queenie as his fiancée to cover up the truth.

No matter what, he had let Queenie down. When Anna thought of this, she suddenly didn’t bear as much hatred

toward what Queenie had done before.

Presently, she called for Edith, “Go upstairs and tell Wendy to come down. Tell her that Queenie is here.”

Edith wordlessly nodded and headed upstairs.

Only then did Anna turn her gaze to the man beside Queenie. The man who looked to be in his thirties had on a suit

with white gloves, and he was holding a black suitcase in his hands.

“And this is?” Anna was slightly puzzled.

Hearing this, Queenie quickly introduced, “Mrs. Gardner, this is someone from Triton Studio. I have mentioned to

you before that I specially found someone from Triton Studio for Wendy’s birthday, yes? This is the person I got.”

Anna’s face immediately beamed with joy when she heard Queenie’s introduction. She had thought about

borrowing or buying jewelry from Triton Studio for Wendy to wear to her birthday party, but she had given up after

her requests kept getting rejected.

“Oh—you didn’t have to,” Anna courteously murmured with a smile.
