Chapter 266 I Absolutely Won’t Agree
Nicole left immediately after speaking, leaving Queenie by herself.
Queenie’s head was completely blank and she broke out in cold sweat. She had taken all the precautions she could,
but she had somehow forgotten to watch out for Anna.
I didn’t even think that Anna would do another paternity test for Colton and that little b*stard!
If only Queenie had known that Nicole was pregnant with a child, she would have told Lydia to keep Nicole as
blackmail and kill her after the child was born!
Queenie absolutely couldn’t sit still and do nothing about it. Her lie would be exposed if the Gardners went one step
ahead of her and got confirmation that Hayden was Colton’s child. The consequence for lying to Colton for five
whole years was not something she could handle!
…
Nicole made a call to Julia after she left the place.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Nicole? What is the matter?” Julia sounded happy to receive her call. “Did the banquet end early?”
“Julia, where are you? I have something I need to talk to you about face-to-face now.” Nicole only realized how
gruff her voice was when she spoke.
Julia had known Nicole way too long to not recognize the change in her friend’s voice.
Worried, she asked, “What’s wrong, Nicole? You sound like something big has happened.”
It was hard for Nicole to speak with the lump in her throat. Nodding, she grunted and muttered, “It is something
major.”
With that, Julia immediately sent her location to Nicole, and the latter sped over after she took a look at the
navigation.
The Gardner Residence had fallen into silence after Nicole left.
Benjamin first looked at the women who were at silent war with each other, and he shifted his gaze to Colton as he
asked for his opinion. “What are your thoughts on this, Colton?”
Colton was still confused about everything. Technically, Queenie was his only woman who he supposedly had
bedded after being drugged. He had never touched another woman after the incident. And now, coincidentally,
Nicole’s son had reached four years of age. The time frame between both incidents seemed to overlap when he
gave it a proper calculation.
“This is my business. I will take care of it,” Colton stated. Even though his heart was heavy after learning about the
whole thing, he still put on a nonchalant attitude as he spoke with the elders.
‘What do you mean you will take care of it? This concerns the whole Gardner Family. Your Dad might approve of
your decision, but your Grandpa never would!”
Olivia was so angry she even brought Benedict into the conversation.
At the mention of Benedict, Benjamin finally showed a change in his expression as he looked up at Olivia and
warned sternly, “Dad is still recuperating. Don’t you dare disturb him!”
Olivia only left out an angry huff before she continued, “I will tell Dad if anyone lets that woman into our family. We
will let him be the judge of that!”
Benjamin’s face turned sour almost immediately after hearing that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBenedict had been diagnosed with a brain tumor a year ago. Given that the tumor was pressing on his cranial
nerves and he was an aged man, even an elite medical team couldn’t heal him back to health.
The doctor had also mentioned that Benedict absolutely shouldn’t be distressed. It would be a tough battle for him
to live past this year if there was something that upset him.
“Olivia, stop being unreasonable! You know Dad can’t take any shock. Are you doing this on purpose?”
Benjamin’s face was solemn as his voice dropped.
Still, Olivia continued to provoke, “The Gardners will be treated like a joke if you let that woman into the family!
Even Dad wouldn’t agree to this!”
Not wanting to stay a second longer, she turned around and tramped away as she reminded, “Better think about it
again. Anyhow, I will go tell Dad if any of you let her in!”
Anger was the only emotion written all over Benjamin’s face, but he didn’t lose his temper at Anne. The only thing
that changed was his expression that got darker and darker as time went by.
“Don’t worry, Dad. Grandpa has never minded things like this,” Colton reassured.
Noticing the underlying message behind his son’s words, Benjamin squinted and looked at Colton. “You mean you
are going to make Nicole one of the Gardners?”
