Chapter 494 So Close
Queenie was eagerly attentive these days as she would visit the Gardner Family daily. Since Anna felt it was
uncalled for to just drive her away, she could only wear a displeased expression.
However, her daughter was different. Annoyed at Queenie, Wendy would immediately become irritated upon her
sight. “Don’t you think you’re being annoying? Why are you always here every day when you have a home
yourself?” she said with her arms crossed and her glare on Queenie, clearly displeased with her.
Facing Wendy and her dissatisfaction, Queenie only smiled and said softly, “Wendy, since Mrs. Gardner is Colton’s
mother, she will be my mother in the future as well. Naturally, I have to visit her more, seeing that she has suffered
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsuch bad injuries.”
Wendy remained angry, as Queenie would always put on a pitiful act as though she was trying to win over an
imaginary crowd with pity every time she came after her with vicious words.
“Cease your nonsense. My mother doesn’t have a shameless daughter-in-law like you!” she said in dissatisfaction
with a frown.
Queenie only smiled and said nothing more.
As Anna suffered a minor headache from her daughter’s screams, she beckoned Edith to escort her back upstairs
to recuperate.
Now, only Wendy, Queenie, and Hayden were left in the living room.
Without Anna around, Queenie’s soft demeanor grew stern as she raised her head with a smile before she slowly
said, “Wendy, regardless of your acceptance, Colton and I will have our wedding in less than a week’s time.”
Hearing her words, Wendy trembled in anger but couldn’t find the words to retort.
With a smile, Queenie continued, “We’ve already received our marriage certificate, and that means we are legally
husband and wife now. As his sister, you should be calling me your sister-in-law.”

With her expression twisted from anger, Wendy replied with her teeth gritted, “You think you’re qualified for that?”
Queenie hadn’t the slightest trace of anger in her demeanor, as she only laughed faintly before she raised her head
and said deplorably, “It’s not up to you to decide since it’s Colton’s decision that matters. Wendy, I won’t argue with
you on this, seeing as you are still young. In fact, as someone older here, I will treat you well from now on.”
Wendy’s anger grew so much at Queenie’s words to the extent that she glared at her with bloodshot eyes.
Suddenly, she took a step forward with one of her hands pushing the latter.
Perhaps because Queenie hadn’t expected Wendy would come at her this way, she was unstable from the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmomentum and was about to fall on her back.
The truth was she was able to stabilize herself should she wish. However, she thought that the current situation was
a good opportunity to make Gardner Family and Colton feel guilty by having Wendy cause her miscarriage.
So, she gave no resistance as she fell on her back. Just as she thought she would suffer from the fall, someone’s
hand supported her and prevented her from falling. After she was on her feet, she realized it was Nicole who had
helped her.
Taking a step forward, Nicole stood between Wendy and Queenie before she lectured the former furiously, “She’s
pregnant. No matter the bad deeds she has done in the past, the child inside her is innocent.”
As Wendy had done what she did due to her anger, she only now realized the gravity of her action after Nicole
pointed it out to her. If Queenie had fallen here, there was a chance that she would suffer a miscarriage.
She instantly grew pale as she came to the realization that her action would amount to manslaughter if things took
a turn for the worse at that point. Biting her lips, she lowered her head with teary eyes and muttered, “I was just so
angry.”
Looking at how distressed Wendy was, Hayden hurriedly tugged on Wendy’s clothes and said, “Aunt Wendy, don’t
be sad anymore. Let’s just ignore this woman now. It’s not worth it to hurt your body over that woman.”
