“Dad, you had no idea how frightened | was when she pressed down on my neck with her knee. | nearly suffocated!”
“Do you have proof? Did anyone see this?” Queenie calmly ate her food. “Please prepare some evidence before making wild
usations about me.”Exclusive ? content by N(?)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Bonnie froze in shock. It was her first time seeing Queenie stooping to trickery. She pointed at someone and said, “She saw it!
She can be my witness.”
Courtney had just brought the fruit sd. to the table. She stiffened as Bonnie.manded her toe over. “Come here!
You''re my witness. You saw Queenie kneeling on my neck this afternoon, right?”
“| didn’t see anything like that, Miss Bonnie.” Courtney shook her head.
Bonnie''s face contorted in fury as she glowered at Courtney. The look in her eyes said, | see. | won''t be forgetting this.
However, Queenie didn’t want to drag Courtney into this, so she turned to her parents and said, “Mom, Dad, | did say a few
words to Bonnie this afternoon. She took my earrings so | wanted to tell her that taking someone else’s belongings without
asking is the same as stealing. I’m just trying to help her be a decent human being.”
Brandon nodded in agreement once he heard that and turned to Bonnie. “Bonnie, Queenie did the right thing this time. In the
future, you should ask your sister first before you take any of her belongings.”
Bonnie turned red. She could tell that Queenie had the upper hand this time, so her only choice was to pout and mutter
aggrievedly, “Yes, Dad.”
Maggie tried to console her. “Didn’t | give you a credit card? You can just buy whatever you need.”
Bonnie bit her lip. “I just didn’t want to spend money unnecessarily, Mom.
“But just this afternoon, you came home with two bags of clothes. I’m guessing that they cost at least 10 thousand!” Queenie
exposed her lie without missing a beat.
Bonnie red at her darkly. “Queenie, Dad approved my purchases.”
“That’s enough. Let''s just have dinner,” Brandon said. Bonnie nced at Courtney before secretly tugging a strand of hair off and
surreptitiously adding it to the soup beside her.
“Oh my goodness! What’s this? Is it a strand of hair?” A few momentster, just as Bonnie started drinking her soup, she
purposely spooned the hair out of her bowl and eximed, “Mom, Dad, | feel so disgusted! | nearly ate a strand of hair!”
Queenie nced over and Bonnic immediately wrapped the hair up in a piece of tissue before tossing it onto the table. I’m not
drinking this soup anymore. Mom, Dad, you guys shouldn''t. drink it either. It’s revolting!”
Courtney grew frantic as she quickly defended herself. “Mr. and Mrs. Silverstein, | always wear a hat whenever. | prepare the
food.”
“Are you trying to imply that it was my hair?” Bonnie raged.
Queenie took one look at Bonnie’s chestnut-colored hair before studying the strand of hair that was thrown onto the table. She
got up and came over to pick up the tissue with the hair. She didn’t mind getting her hands dirty as she gave the strand of hair a
closer look. “This is
your own hair. Don’t try to make up false usations about Mrs. Lowman.”
Bonnie turned scarlet once more. She didn’t think that Queenie woulde over and continue to expose her. “You''re just
harboring resentment that Mrs. Lowman didn’t act as your witness just now. You wanted to use your own hair to set her up. You
shouldn’t have such a malevolent streak, Bonnie.”
Courtney gave Queenie a look of gratitude. Although she knew that Bonnie was setting her up on purpose, she was just a
member of the household staff and couldn''t defend herself.
Maggie and Brandon exchanged looks. before sighing to themselves. They thought that Bonnie was just a little spoiled, but from
the looks of it now, she was beginning to show an unscrupulous side to her as well.
“I''m full,” Bonnie announced. She set down her cutlery and walked off, not forgetting to act as if she werepletely broken-
hearted.
That night, Maggie went to Bonnie’s room tofort her. Bonnie threw herself into Maggie’s arms and moaned about being
hated by everyone. She also talked about how much she suffered while growing up with adopted parents.
Maggie’s heart softened after all that. Even though Bonnie had made a mistake tonight, Maggie didn’t think much of it anymore.
It was Friday morning, Leslie came to the house with a bouquet of red roses, but Bonnie hid in her room and refused to see him.
It was Brandon who weed him into the house as the Silversteins and the Paynes had a good rtionship with each other.
“Mr. Silverstein, my father and | discussed everythingst night. | will break off the engagement with Queenie and get engaged to
Bonnie right after,” Leslie announced expectantly.
“Good. That''s what we want as well.” Brandon nodded. He was beginning to: realize that he and his wife couldn’t control how
Bonnie behaved, so he wanted to help her get a good marriage as soon as possible.
Leslie couldn’t stop himself from heading upstairs to see Bonnie. He missed her too much.
The door to Bonnie’s room remained shut even though Leslie kept knocking for ages. It was Queenie who was disturbed by the
incessant noise. She opened her door and looked at Leslie who was standing in front of the opposite room. “She doesn’t want to
see you, so don’t bother knocking anymore.”
“What''s going on with Bonnie?” Leslie was at a loss. It was as if Bonnie had suddenly changed into a whole new person
overnight. She didn’t care about him anymore and didn’t even want to see him.
Queenie was probably the only one who knew the reason why. Bonnie''s favorite. pastime was to steal anything that Queenie
wanted. If Queenie didn’t want it anymore, then Bonnie lost interest in it. too. It was the same each time, regardless of whether it
was an item or a man.
Right now, Bonnie was fantasizing about seducing Nigel!
Just then, Bonnie opened her door. She stood at the door all dolled up, and when she spotted Leslie, she felt a little turned off. “I
told you not toe to my house ever again, so why did you stille?”
