Chapter 36 Go For It
Joseph couldn’t quitee up with a response for a second. His eyes stared ahead at Queenie, still in
disbelief. “You’re saying that Lisa’s son is mine?”
“Yep,” Queenie said in surety. She syed her fingers out across the table. With who Nicole was now,
Joseph would definitely want to im her son. Those two would fight over this matter then. If Colton
were to know about this thing between them, he probably wouldn’t be interested in Nicole.
“Are you telling me the truth?” Joseph still couldn’t believe it. He just felt that this was likely a trap that
Queenie had set for him.
Queenie looked at Joseph. He wasn’t as dumb as she thought he would be. He didn’t believe her just
because she said so. However, she had everything nned already.
“If you don’t believe me, you can ask Nicole. You already stepped on her toes anyway. Asking her that
won’t do anything to you.” Queenie paused before continuing, “You can also get a paternity test. I’m her
sister, so I know that considering Nicole’s status now, the Mann Family will stand to benefit if you marry
her!”
Upon hearing Queenie’s words, Joseph’s brain turned to mush. He clenched his fists. If Nicole’s son
was truly his, then he just found his new cash cow. The Manns might even be able to surpass the
Gardners in the fashion industry then.
What Queenie said was right. He already pissed off Nicole; what was the harm in asking her another
question?
“That’s all the help I can give you. If you still want to work with F&M Apparel, this is the only way to
completely resolve this matter,” Queenie dered as she got up.
Joseph suddenly recalled his purpose for meeting Queenie today. “What about the thing with the
police?” he hastily asked.
Queenie gave a light chuckle. Her lips were quirked as she looked at him. “If you’re truly the father of
Nicole’s child, then shouldn’t it be easy for you to fix it?”
Joseph still didn’t fully believe her. He did sleep with plenty of women, but he still had a faint memory of
who he had shared a bed with. But for Nicole, he had not the slightest memory of her at all.
However, there didn’t seem to be any other choice now. All he could do now was try his luck.
“Fine, I’ll believe you onest time. If you’re lying, you’ll never hear the end of me!” The only thing he
could do now was go for it. On the off chance that he was actually the father of Nicole’s son, the Manns
would definitely be able to rocket to the top!

“There’s no need for me to lie to you about this. After all, a test will reveal everything, no?” Queenie’s
smile was smug. If she could tamper with the results of Colton’s paternity test with that bastard child,
then she could also tamper with Joseph’s results. When everyone believes that Nicole’s son is
Joseph’s, then Colton will belong to me.
…
Nicole came up with a few design drafts over thest few days at home. Zachary didn’t seem to have
anything to do while being cooped up at home, other than ying with Hayden.
Nicole could see that Hayden liked Zachary. She also admitted that Zachary was great at everything he
did. But it was also precisely this reason that she wasn’t worthy of him.
“Aren’t you going to go home for the mid-winter holiday?” Nicole looked at Zachary, who was sitting on
the couch.
Today, he was dressed in a pure white hoodie. Paired with a pair of straight-leg sweatpants, he looked
a few years younger than he did when he was dressed in a suit.
“Nope. I’m going to stay here and celebrate with you guys,” Zachary said without even looking at her,
but mncholy streaked across his eyes for a second.
Nicole knew that Zachary had never gotten along well with his family, so she didn’t press him about it.
To her, it made no difference where she celebrated the holiday, as long as she got to spend it with her
son, Hayden.
