Chapter 464
Chapter 464 Preparation of the Wedding
Colton and Queenie not only obtained a marriage certificate, but also had a wedding scheduled for two
weeks down the road.
Although nothing was disclosed from the Gardner Family, Queenie had revealed everything.
Lydia didn’t expect things to develop so quickly. She intended to visit Mrs. Gardner to discuss the
wedding, but she didn’t imagine being refused outright. Mrs. Gardner told Lydia that this was her child’s
concern, and since she was old, she would like to stay out of it.
On the other hand, it was a once-in-a-lifetime event for Lydia’s daughter, so she felt that it couldn’t be
too casual. She eventually took the initiative to go to Queenie’s residence and waited for Colton to
return so that they could discuss it together.
Colton rarely visited Queenie. He only came back once a week, but would only look around before
leaving again.
In Lydia’s eyes, Queenie appeared to be mistreated by Colton, and she secretly hoped for justice on
her daughter’s behalf.
“Queenie, you are pregnant with his child now, yet he is so distant from you! He is not apetent
husband at all!”
Hearing Lydia’sints, Queenie hurriedly interrupted, “Mom, don’t say that about Colton. Colton is
the head of the Gardner Family. He has a lot of responsibilities and is extremely busy. I think it’s
already good enough that he takes time off to visit me asionally.”
Lydia looked at her daughter’s innocent look and couldn’t help but sigh. “Queenie, I know you like him,
but the Gardner Family doesn’t seem to care about your wedding—even Mrs. Gardner wants to stay
out of it. The wedding must bevish if you marry Colton!”
Queenie was her only daughter, and she didn’t want her to be mistreated.
Although she married William back then, she still had the status of a mistress. She had never before
hosted avish wedding, but her daughter was different. How could the marriage not be magnificent
given that she was going to marry a prominent member of the Gardner Family?
“Mom, as long as I marry Colton, I wouldn’t mind even if there is no wedding.”
ording to Queenie, she didn’t mind these issues at all.
Colton eventually returned in the evening while Lydia was chatting with Queenie.
Lydia’s presence did not surprise Colton at all.
Although Lydia was not convinced, she still said politely to Colton, “Mr. Gardner, you promised that the
wedding would take ce in two weeks, but when I visited Mrs. Gardner, she refused to host the event.
Is there anything else that’s more important?”
Hearing her question, Colton frowned slightly as his face darkened at once. He looked over with
displeasure, his voice cold. “Are you doubting me now?”
Colton’s strong response was unexpected by Lydia, who hastily shook her head and denied. “N-No, I
simply believe it’s best to organize a grand wedding since getting married is a woman’s once-in-a-
lifetime event.”

Upon hearing that, Colton paused, refusing to even nce at Lydia. Instead, he ced his attention on
Queenie and asked, “Is this your idea?” he asked.
Queenie was startled as she looked into his icy eyes and quickly shook her head. “No, Colton, it is not.”
As she spoke, she tugged on Lydia’s arm in secret.
Colton continued coldly before giving them both a chance to respond, “My mother is busy caring for my
grandfather while he recovers from a major illness, so there is obviously no time for this wedding. It can
only be executed simply; if there are objections, it won’t take ce.”
Queenie was shocked and said quickly, “Grandpa is recovering from a terrible illness, so the wedding
shouldn’t be all thatvish. Like you said, we should just keep it simple.”
She did not want to blow this chance; it was the wedding she had been anticipating for five years, after
all. Just as she had always wished, she finally got the opportunity to be Mrs. Gardner.
He remained silent as he simply passed Queenie the envelope in his hand and turned to leave.
Lydia wanted to say more, but her daughter stopped her. Queenie shook her head as she looked at
Colton’s retreating back.
