Chapter 246 The Damsel Saving the Hero
Queenie pursed her lips and followed Colton.
Witnessing what had happened, Nicole frowned, sensing that something was amiss. Queenie was undoubtedly
harboring some malice by meeting Colton here by chance.
But then again, Queenie was Colton’s fiancée. Even if she had some motive against him, it wasn’t for Nicole to
worry about it. When Nicole realized this, she smiled, as if mocking herself.
Julia, on the other hand, noticed Nicole’s odd expression. Hence, she curiously looked at her and asked, “Nicole, you
look weird. Do you know that woman?”
Nicole nodded in response. “Yes. She’s my half-sister,” she said coldly.
Julia now understood Nicole’s awful expression. Nicole had previously told Julia something concerning this half-sister
of hers, and there was nothing good to it.
“Is she plotting something against President Gardner?” Julia asked, grabbing Nicole’s arm.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Who cares?” Nicole replied in frustration. She then rose to her feet, took her bag and after checking her watch,
said, “It is getting late. I’m going home to take care of Hayden. You can look for your boyfriend.”
And she left right after her words, without allowing Julia to stop her.
Julia smiled as she watched Nicole walk away. “Things have already come to such a stage—” she mumbled
sentimentally, shaking her head. “—but she’s still not saying what she truly feels!”
Meanwhile, Nicole exhaled a sigh of relief as she stepped outside the bar, the hustle and bustle in her ears having
faded away. This type of environment was completely unsuitable for her. Even now, the bustling noise made her
heart tremble.
Just as she was about to leave, she noticed two people standing close to each other beside a car from a distance.
She got closer and heard Colton’s voice, which sounded angry. “What exactly have you done to me, Queenie?”
Queenie appeared flustered. Holding him, she said coquettishly with a pitiful expression, “I didn’t do anything,
Colton. What happened to you? You appear out of place and your face is flushed. Did you drink too much alcohol?”
“Get away from me!” He tried to push her away. However, perhaps due to the drug, his exerted force wasn’t strong
enough to push her off him.
Queenie knew that she had to take advantage of this opportunity. Hence, she went closer and hugged him. “Colton,
you seem to be not feeling well. I’ll send you home,” she said with concern.
“I don’t need that. Get as far away from me as you can!” Through his strong willpower, Colton was attempting to
suppress the desire burning in his heart.
He was well aware that his tolerance for alcohol was not so low that his body would be in such a state after only a
few glasses.
He wasn’t stupid either. He immediately remembered going to the gents earlier, and by connecting the dots, he
knew Queenie had done something.
From the heat his body was experiencing right now, Colton knew he had been drugged, but he continued to resist
the urge until his veins were showing on his forehead. He struggled to stand with both hands clutching the car
tightly, and his eyes were bloodshot.
“I’ll send you home first, Colton. We can talk further after that.” Queenie pushed open the car door and stuffed

But he squinted his eyes at that. Despite the fact that his entire body was weak, his sharp gaze and domineering
aura remained.
Queenie was a little terrified with his stare, but she persevered and said gently, “Sit still, Colton. I’ll take you home
now.”
Nicole, on the other hand, was nearby and overheard their conversation. She had a rough idea of what had
happened after some thought. Queenie was up to her old tricks again and this time, Colton was the unfortunate
victim!
Though Nicole did not want to meddle with their affairs, she couldn’t really leave Colton just like that as he had
assisted her a lot in Hayden’s matter.
She felt compelled to act in the name of justice.
Hence, she approached them and directly pushed Queenie away while pulling Colton out of the car.
Nicole’s push nearly knocked Queenie over. After regaining her footing, Queenie turned around to see what had
happened, and her eyes were filled with rage. “Nicole, it’s you again! What exactly do you want?!” she yelled
through clenched teeth.
