One had a pair of clear, bewitching eyes, while the other had a risque look in their eyes.
âWhoâs this?â Bonnie pretended not to know who Nigel was. She assumed that all men would introduce themselves enthusiastically when she asked this question.
However, Nigel merely turned to look at Queenie. âIâll come and find you after work.â
Queenie blinked and answered with ease, âGot it.â Then, she realized that they were in public, and she had to show more respect for Nigel, so she added, âHave a good day, Mr. Manson.â
Nigel, who started walking off earlier, turned back to give her a complex look before striding off to the elevator without looking back again.
Bonnieâs eyes were glued to Nigel as he left. She even started comparing Leslie with him and realized that Leslie, whom she considered rather handsome before this, was completely average when held up against a distinguished man like Nigel. In fact, they were leagues apart and shouldnât even be compared to one another.
Leslie saw what was happening, but he could scarcely believe his eyes. Queenie, the woman he tossed aside, was now involved with Nigel Manson, the heir of the Manson Group They even showed up here at a hotel together. Whatâs going on? Are they here to get a room together?
He was furious. Once upon a time, he tried to get Queenie to come to a hotel with him, but she acted as if she were staunchly against such behavior before marriage. And yet, she was perfectly willing to come to a hotel with Nigel now.
Was she just looking down on my family? On me?
âSo, Queenie, this is the type of woman you are, huh?â Leslie came over with an icy expression and grabbed Bonnieâs hand. âLetâs go, Bonnie.â
âYou go ahead, Leslie!â Bonnie didnât want to leave with him.
âBonnie, why do you want to stay here? Let me take you home.â Leslie didnât want to be apart from her.
Queenie watched as they had their backâandâforth and turned to Bonnie. âTell Mom and Dad that I have a place to stay. They donât need to worry about me.â
She left right after finishing her sentence. Bonnieâs eyes were full of overwhelming jealousy. Is Queenie staying with Nigel? Did my plot to get her kicked out of the house end up pushing her into his arms instead? D*mn it! Bonnie was so mad that she nearly stomped her feet.
