Chapter 2 This Guy Looks So Much Like Her Son
Queenie spoke to Lisa respectfully without knowing who thetter really was.
Five years ago, Queenie hatched up a plot in an attempt to trick Joseph into marrying her for the sake
of her own interests. However, in a strangebination of circumstances, she ended up hooking
Colton instead. Topensate her for what had happened, Colton gave her the title of “the future
Young Madam Gardner,” but his manner toward her had always been lukewarm. This time, she
volunteered to be Lisa’s assistant, wanting to do well to impress Colton since Gardner Corporation
ced great emphasis on the partnership.
She was supposed to pick Lisa up herself today, but she learned all of a sudden that Colton would be
returning from his business trip ahead of schedule on the same flight as Lisa. To her, no one could be
more important than Colton, so she could only ke on Lisa.
Nicole noticed that the woman on the other end of the line had begun to hum and haw, as though the
latter really had something urgent to deal with. “I got it. Just go ahead with your stuff first. I can hail a
cab back myself.” Only then did she recall her boss telling her before her trip home that an assistant
had been assigned to her to help her familiarize herself with thepany’s work in the country. It’s said
that this assistant is the future Young Madam Gardner, but I never thought she’d be so polite…
“Thank you so much, Ms. Lisa.” Queenie hung up with a sigh of relief.
This was the first time Lisa returned to her home country to take over thepany’s business in the
country, and rumor had it that she was a woman in her forties. At first, Queenie had thought that she
would be difficult to deal with, but she didn’t expect Lisa to be so easygoing.
Nicole continued standing outside the washroom after putting away her phone. She waited for over ten
minutes, but Hayden had yet toe out. It’s been such a long time. Could something haveC0ntent ? 2024 (N/?)velDrama.Org.
happened? She stared at the men’s room sign, hesitating whether she should go in to take a look.
Just then, Hayden ran out on his little legs and threw himself at her trouser legs, crying. “Mom…”
Nicole immediately looked down at her son, only to find that his eyes were red.
Nicole had no idea who Hayden inherited his looks from, but he looked really adorable. His ck hair
rested softly on his head, and his little face was round and plump. With his delicate and good-looking
features, he would definitely be a handsome guy when he grew up. At this very moment, though,
he looked very aggrieved. His bright and clear eyes were tinged with red, and his lips were slightly
pouted. Worried, she crouched down and asked, “What’s wrong, Hayden?”
“Mom, there was a man inside who bullied me.”
A man bullied my son? Upon listening to Hayden’s words, Nicole instantly saw red. Does this guy have
no sense of shame? How could he bully a little boy? Sheforted her son while standing ferociously
outside the men’s room, ready to argue it out with the man when he came outter.
A short whileter, a man came out of the men’s room. Being tall and lean, he was dressed
immactely in a well-ironed ck suit that outlined his perfectly proportioned figure, especially his
broad shoulders, slim waist, and criminally long legs.
Nicole looked all the way up from the man’s slim waist, only to be taken aback when sheid eyes on
his face.
The man had chiseled and exquisite features, with a tall nose and a pair of slightlypressed thin lips
that had a sharp edge to them. The most captivating of his features were his eyes, the inky pupils of
which were very deep despite the hint of callousness about them, like a pair of ck holes that could
suck people in.
However, what astounded Nicole wasn’t the man’s dazzling features, but his looks. He looked just like
the adult version of her son!
