Chapter 280 Finding Another Way Out

Queenie was now afraid. She was scared that Colton would try and get even with her in the future. In the past, she

was confident that she had done everything perfectly, leaving no trace of evidence.

 

 

But she never expected that Nicole would give birth to that b*stard!

A child of a one-night stand was an embarrassment; no normal person would keep it!

 

However, not only did she give birth to the child, they actually reunited with Colton five years later.

It would be easier if he were more of a player like Joseph. Unfortunately, Colton was too pure and had not laid his

hands on another woman. He could easily trace the dots of when Nicole’s son was born and guessed that he was a

product from that night five years ago.

Lydia, who was just done arguing with William, headed toward Queenie’s room to find that she was curled up in her

blanket. Then, Lydia straightened her face and asked, “Queenie, now that the Gardner Family knows that Nicole’s

child is Colton’s biological son, what is your next move?”

This was the first time Queenie had heard such a serious tone from her mother. She raised her head from the bed,

looked over, and hesitated before saying, “I-I don’t know either.”

There was nothing she could do. This time, the evidence was conclusive. Even if she quibbled, it was of no use.

 

Queenie had always known that the only reason that she was given a chance to be Colton’s fiancé was that she had

sacrificed herself to save him five years ago, but now that the lie had been exposed…

“Queenie, you need to calm down. We still have other options if the Gardners don’t work out.”

Lydia was someone who had experienced various hardships to get to where she was now and had quickly regained

her senses after the bad tidings.

Now that William had lost all his influence, the Anderson Family would soon fall apart. In addition to that, the

situation with the Gardners was unsalvageable.

As Queenie raised her head while she was thinking about this, her eyes began to redden. Her pitiful appearance

was a heart-wrenching sight to see.

Nevertheless, Lydia just calmly coaxed, “Queenie, the Gardners aren’t the only powerful ones in this city.”

 

Queenie was shocked by what she heard and tilted her head in confusion.

Then, Lydia grabbed Queenie’s hand as she said, “There’s Bryan Kohlberg from the Kohlberg Family.”

This surprised Queenie even more to the point where her pupils dilated. Bryan Kohlberg, the CEO of the Kohlberg

Group; the Gardners’ mortal enemy.

Bryan was a man in his thirties. Although he looked plain and honest, he was anything but that.

Queenie, who had been following Colton for years, often overheard the employees in the office mentioning his

name, saying that the Kohlberg Group had caused trouble to Gardner Corporation.

“Mom, I’m not Colton’s fiancé anymore. So, even if I go to Bryan, I don’t have any leverage,” Queenie said, pursing

her lips.

With her hand still in Lydia’s, Lydia said, “Queenie, when you were in the Gardner Corporation, didn’t you come in

contact with all sorts of projects? There are many ongoing projects right now, am I right?”

Queenie quickly understood what Lydia was trying to say and was taken aback as she instantly shook her head.

“No, Mom, if I do that, Colton will never let me go.”

Lydia saw how terrified Queenie was and scolded, “Colton would not let us live peacefully even if you didn’t do

anything about it. You’ve impersonated Nicole for so long. Do you think he will let you go this easily?”

It was only after hearing what Lydia said that Queenie finally calmed down a little. She squeezed her mother’s

hands tightly as her long lashes fluttered.

Lydia knew that Queenie was nervous, so she continued to comfort her, “Go for Bryan and help him fight the

Gardners for a fair share of the money. Then, I’ll take you away from here once you’ve got the money.”

When Queenie heard this, she tried to hide the panic on her face as she turned to Lydia. Queenie’s lips trembled

slightly as she softly asked, “Mom, what do you mean?”

“The Anderson Family is crumbling. I don’t have much money with me now. We need money. Once we have

enough, we’ll no longer stay here and move abroad to start a new life. That way, we can ignore everything that is

going on in this country,” Lydia said. The Anderson family was corrupted and useless now.

Although Queenie was a little scared, she knew that this was her only chance. So, she bit her lips and thought for a

while before she responded firmly, “Okay!”
