Chapter 449 The Checkup
Colton briefly explained what was going on—he told her that Queenie wanted him to be responsible for the baby, so
he had to let her stay at the Gardner Residence so she could focus on taking care of the baby in her belly.
After Mrs. Garnder fully understood the whole situation, she suddenly realized something. Hence, she looked up at
Colton, asking, “Are you plotting to punish her?”
Colton was not shy about admitting to such a scheme. On the contrary, his eyes were filled with vengeance; he was
adamant about getting revenge on that treacherous woman.
“Yes. I would not let Queenie off the hook that easily, especially after drugging me and using such vile means just to
get into the Gardner Family.”

Mrs. Gardner felt glad knowing that he was only playing along with Queenie. She slowly sat down, saying, “You
should’ve told me about it sooner. You almost gave me a heart attack.”
Mrs. Gardner genuinely thought that her son had taken leave of his senses and that he wanted to date Queenie.
She was relieved that it was all just a hoax.
When Colton saw how irritated she was, he immediately soothed, “Alright, I’m sorry, Mom. But please don’t tell
Wendy since you know how she can never keep her mouth shut.”
Mrs. Gardner slowly nodded in agreement. She felt much more at ease knowing Colton wasn’t indeed into Queenie.
“That being the case, I’ll let you deal with it alone.”
Colton nodded, satisfied.
He headed upstairs after clearing things up with his mom. Meanwhile, Ms. Edith had already brought Queenie to the
guest room.
When he walked in, Ms. Edith was still helping her unpack her stuff.
He glanced at her, saying, “Ms. Edith, I need to talk to Queenie—can you excuse us, please?”
She dropped everything, and she left the two alone in the room without saying a word.
Queenie immediately plastered a gentle face when she saw Colton. She skipped toward him, then gazed at him
with innocent eyes, softly saying, “Colton, you’re here! I was going to unpack on my own, but being pregnant just
makes things harder than they should be, so—”
She kept hinting about herself being pregnant as she spoke. This annoyed Colton, so he cut her off mid-sentence.
“It’s fine. I’ll get the doctor to come and give you a checkup. In the meantime, get some rest.”
Queenie nodded as she happily rubbed her belly, bashfully answering, “Okay.”
Colton glanced at her with distaste as he continued coldly, “If you need anything, just call Ms. Edith. It would be
troublesome for you to go out since you’re pregnant. You might put yourself at risk of miscarriage if anything does
happen.”
The word ‘miscarriage’ made Queenie’s face pale, but she quickly recovered and meekly responded to him,
“Alright, I understand. I will take good care of our baby.”

Colton had nothing more to say, so he turned and left the room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe next day, a group of doctors came in early in the morning to give Queenie a prenatal checkup. She was also
very cooperative throughout the checkup.
The doctors discovered that the fetus was conceived during the night of Mr. Benedict’s birthday banquet. Colton
was silent upon hearing the result. Then, he requested the doctors to prescribe anti-abortifacient pills for Queenie.
He and the doctors then left her alone so that she could rest and take care of her baby.
Only after the doctors left did Queenie feel much more relieved; she was so scared that the doctors would learn
that the baby was actually conceived a few days before Mr. Benedict’s birthday banquet. That was a close call, she
thought.
Colton escorted the doctors out of the house. Just after they stepped out of the house, he asked the doctor, “So,
roughly when was the baby conceived?”
“According to the report, the child was conceived around a month and two weeks ago. It is also possible that it was
conceived during the time that you mentioned, that is, if you can confirm it. If not, then based on the reports, it
might be way before that.”
The doctor spoke very carefully, as the man whom he was speaking to was the current man of power of the
Gardner Family; he was not one to mess around with.
Colton’s expression didn’t change much upon hearing what the doctor said. Instead, in a low voice, he said,
“Alright, I understand. And remember, do not tell anyone else about this.”
