    Chapter 465 You Don’t Need To Care


    Lydia looked at her daughter anxiously. Even if her daughter married Colton in a public ceremony,


    Queenie was still aggrieved about the situation. However, given the wealthy lifestyle she would soon


    enjoy, she would have to bear it for now.


    “It’s okay, Mom. If we make him unhappy, there probably won’t be a wedding,” Queenie said, looking at


    the envelope he had given her. It contained their wedding invitation with both their names printed on


    the cover.


    She couldn’t help but smile as she showed the card to her mother. “Look, he cares about me. He even


    gave me the card himself!”


    Lydia had been wary of the Gardners ever since they refused to make the wedding a grand asion,


    but seeing the card before her made her swallow her feelings. She nodded at her daughter. “Yeah, we


    can print this out and give it to everyone we know back home for them to see you at your best!”


    “Sure,” answered Queenie as she nodded with a smile.


    When Whitney returned to the Campbell residence, a grave atmosphere greeted her. Her father and


    stepmother sat front and center with Michael, her half-brother, sitting beside his mother. Meanwhile,


    Aaron sat behind them. Jonathan looked happy when he saw her, but his expression became serious


    as he said, “You’re back.”


    Aaron looked unhappy at Whitney’s return and stood up at once. “Whitney, you don’t need to care


    about the whole situation. We just have to deal with the consequences of it.”


    Her stepmother became annoyed at his words and stood up, waving him off. “What are you talking


    about? If she doesn’t help us, we will be in trouble!”


    Aaron was more soft-spoken like their mother, and he had never been this brave before. Whitney’s


    eyes reddened as she knew he was doing this to help her.


    “It’s his fault that everything happened, and he should be the one to bear the consequences. Whitney


    and I didn’t do anything, so why should we be the ones to do so?” Aaron retorted, his face red.


    Jonathan had a hard time persuading his daughter to return so that she could meet Dous and talk


    about the situation at hand, but now, Aaron was trying to spoil his ns. In anger, he pped the


    young man.


    Aaron froze, shocked by the man’s action as he felt his face burn from the impact. Whitney quickly


    approached her brother to look at his cheek. She then bellowed, “Jonathan! We are your biological


    children. No father will do this to his kids. Are you putting your hopes on this useless piece of trash right


    here?”


    Michael was so enraged by the term she had used for him that he hit the table and growled and said,


    “Who did you just call a useless piece of trash? I’ll teach you a lesson!”


    She pulled her younger brother and backed away with a sneer. “You, of course! Are you going to hit


    me? If you do, I won’t help you with Dous’ situation!”


    As soon as Jonathan heard her mention Dous, immediately stopped Michael. “Don’t do it. She’s


    your younger sister. Lower your hand immediately.”


    Michael was angry at her, but since he needed her help, he backed down instead.


    “Whitney, you don’t have to do it. I am not scared of going to prison,” said Aaron quietly while tugging


    her sleeve.N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    Whitney shut her eyes. She did not want to help these disgusting people, but she couldn’t just leave


    her only brother alone.
