Chapter 1374 Possessive Desire


    Queenie appeared to have dressed up specifically for tonight''s event. Could she possibly have known that her father would


    attend the banquet with Bonnie? That had to be the case and Queenie was here to embarrass her intentionally. How evil of her!


    Meanwhile, Lina took advantage of the chance to approach Nigel and greeted him, “Hi, Nigel, it’s nice to see you again.”


    Nigel responded with a slight nod before turning his head to search for Queenie. At that moment, two young men stood next to


    her, and they were Brandon’s friends’ sons. While they were going around greeting the various guests, they happened to notice


    Queenie. They didn’t miss the opportunity to chat with her, and she couldn''t be impolite to them because her father was friends


    with their parents.


    Nigel happened to catch sight of that scene and an instantaneous surge of possessive desire swept through his chest. Contrarily,


    Lina attempted to buy him a drink by calling the waiter and preparing to pass him a ss of wine.


    However, just as she took the winess in her hand, Nigel was nowhere to be found.


    “Nigel, let''s have a—" She looked down at her red wine ss in shame as she watched him leave without saying anything. A


    me of resentment red in her eyes as she caught sight of the girl whom he was approaching. It turned out that the girl he was


    walking toward was Queenie, and the moment he was close enough to her, the first thing he did was give her a warm embrace


    around the waist.


    “Your friends, Queenie?” Nigel inquired naturally.


    Queenie was slightly embarrassed by his affectionate embrace. Then, she introduced him to the two men but barely knew their


    last names.


    “My girlfriend and | have to greet a few elders now. Please excuse us.” Nigel excused himself from the two young men and


    walked away with her in his arms.


    “My dad is over there. Do you want to say hello?” she asked him.


    He already knew Brandon was here, so he nodded. “Of course.”


    Brandon was conversing with his friends when he suddenly noticed Nigel and beamed with excitement. “You''re here, Nigel,” he


    eximed.


    Nigel greeted, “Hello, Mr. Silverstein.”


    Since Nigel had rarely socialized with Brandon’s group of friends, many of them were unfamiliar with him. In addition, he


    maintained a low profile, and no one appeared to have heard of him.


    “Who is this young boy, Brandon?”


    “He’s my daughter’s boyfriend.”


    “What a good-looking boy. Which family is he from?” One of them was curious when he noticed the plutocratic aura Nigel


    exuded.


    Brandon replied boastfully, “This hotel belongs to Nigel’s family.”


    The hotel was managed by the Manson Group, so could the young man before them be the next in line to seed as the


    group’s heir apparent?


    “What a lucky man you are, Brandon! | can’t believe your daughter is seeing such an outstanding man. That makes me envious!”


    Soon, Brandon''s group of friends started expressing their envy for him. After having such a beautiful daughter, he was able to


    attract a wealthy son-inw! What a blessing!


    Brandon let out a heartyugh, and Queenie could feel her father’s happiness as she sneakily nced at Nigel. She was thrilled


    that he could make her father proud.


    “Please continue with your conversation and have fun. We''ll be heading off to greet other guests,” Nigel said. “We''ll be back in a


    bit, Mr. Silverstein.”


    “Go on!” Brandon nodded.


    Bonnie, who stood nearby, almost crushed the winess that she was holding. She was no longer in the mood to head out


    tonight in search of a wealthy, eligible bachelor because Queenie had ruined her mood entirely.


    Meanwhile, Lina rejoined her group of friends. They had all witnessed her futile attempt to initiate a conversation with Nigel, so


    they began muttering.


    “What''s so good about Queenie? She’s not as beautiful as Lina.”


    “Exactly! You can tell she’s an escort by looking at her sister.”Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    “Bonnie is still useful to me. Don’t say that in front of her,” Lina warned her friends. She could tell at a nce that Bonnie had a


    significant setback. Although they shared a family tree, it was clear that she was more like a leaf than her sister, Queenie, who


    was more like a flower in full bloom.


    Therefore, it was understandable that Bonnie was upset.
