Chapter 452
Chapter 452 An Act
Nicole regarded Queenie with disdain as it was clear that the woman before her wouldn’t give up
getting into the Gardner’s good graces with underhanded means. Well, it was her lucky day that Nicole
did not have the time to argue with her further. So, Nicole snorted derisively, “It’s okay if you want to
think that way. We’ll see what happens in a few months.”
She paused as she suddenly thought of something and continued, “Oh right, we can do a DNA
paternity test with amniotic fluid. So, it can be done even if the child is not delivered.”
Queenie’s face changed at Nicole’s words. She nned to abort the child as she knew Colton would
not make a big fuss out of it. But if they did the amniotic fluid test, then she was done for. Suddenly, a
sheen of perspiration covered her forehead.
Even so, Queenie would not back down, not before Nicole. Therefore, she warned through her teeth,
“Whatever happens between Colton and I is none of your business!”
Nicole’s bright eyes gleamed with mockery as she quipped, “Oh, was I meddling too much? Weren’t
you the one who wanted to argue with me?”
Queenie’s face turned red as she wanted to refute but did not know what to say.

After she pondered for a while, she shot daggers at Nicole and rebuked coldly, “Didn’t youe to the
Gardner Residence to look for Colton? I don’t believe that you’re only here to visit Old Mr. Benedict. I
know what you’re thinking. You’ve been anxious since I moved in here. So, you’re here to feel things
out!”
Eventually, Nicole couldn’t suppress her amusement as she burst intoughter.
“Queenie, who do you think you are for me to waste my time on you?”
She was done with Queenie and did not want to waste time arguing with her. Thus, she stepped back
as she deliberately taunted Queenie, “Let’s not even talk about whether or not the child in your belly is
Colton’s. But it is an undeniable fact that my son is indeed his. So, do you truly think you can wait until
your child is safely delivered, knowing that they would forever be second to my son?”
Nicole’s words touched a sore spot. Queenie’s face instantly turned livid as she yelled insults, “You’ve
finally revealed what’s on your mind! You’re just afraid that I will deliver a son for Colton that will
compete with your son for the Gardner Family’s fortune. You vicious woman!”
Nicole curved her lips into a smile and watched as Queenie stomped her feet like a fool. She just loved
watching Queenie getting all worked up yet being unable to do anything to change her predicament.
“Even if that’s what I think, so what? Do you think you would be that lucky that you would be able to
bear a son?”
Just when she thought Queenie would continue and squabble with her, Queenie suddenly softened her
expression and spoke softly. She looked especially pitiful with glistening eyes. “We’re half-sisters,
Nicole. Do you need to be so mean to me? I’m pregnant. Why can’t you let me off the hook?”
Nicole furrowed her brows and thought. What’s up with her?
Then, just when she suspected something was up, Queenie went up to her and grabbed her arm. “Sis,
you can’t hurt my baby. I can apologize for wronging you before. The child is my life. You can’t harm
him!”
Nicole wanted to draw her hand back but realized Queenie had such a hold strong on her that she was
already leaving slight scratch marks.
Thus, she didn’t hesitate to shake her off with a little force, but Queenie suddenly fell backward.
She wanted to grab her, but another figure whizzed in and pulled Queenie to her feet.
When Nicole raised her gaze to look at the figure, she realized it was Colton.
No wonder Queenie had such a massive change of attitude. It was all an act for Colton. She
remembered Lydia being the same as well with her two-faced personality. They were truly mother and
daughter.
