Chapter 494 So Close
Queenie was eagerly attentive these days as she would visit the Gardner Family daily. Since Anna felt
it was uncalled for to just drive her away, she could only wear a displeased expression.
However, her daughter was different. Annoyed at Queenie, Wendy would immediately be irritated
upon her sight. “Don’t you think you’re being annoying? Why are you always here every day when you
have a home yourself?” she said with her arms crossed and her re on Queenie, clearly displeased
with her.
Facing Wendy and her dissatisfaction, Queenie only smiled and said softly, “Wendy, since Mrs.
Gardner is Colton’s mother, she will be my mother in the future as well. Naturally, I have to visit her
more, seeing that she has suffered such bad injuries.”
Wendy remained angry, as Queenie would always put on a pitiful act as though she was trying to win
over an imaginary crowd with pity every time she came after her with vicious words.
“Cease your nonsense. My mother doesn’t have a shameless daughter-inw like you!” she said in
dissatisfaction with a frown.
Queenie only smiled and said nothing more.
As Anna suffered a minor headache from her daughter’s screams, she beckoned Edith to escort her
back upstairs to recuperate.
Now, only Wendy, Queenie, and Hayden were left in the living room.
Without Anna around, Queenie’s soft demeanor grew stern as she raised her head with a smile before
she slowly said, “Wendy, regardless of your eptance, Colton and I will have our wedding in less
than a week’s time.”
Hearing her words, Wendy trembled in anger but couldn’t find the words to retort.
With a smile, Queenie continued, “We’ve already received our marriage certificate, and that means we
are legally husband and wife now. As his sister, you should be calling me your sister-inw.”
With her expression twisted from anger, Wendy replied with her teeth gritted, “You think you’re qualified
for that?”
Queenie hadn’t the slightest trace of anger in her demeanor, as she onlyughed faintly before she
raised her head and said deplorably, “It’s not up to you to decide since it’s Colton’s decision that
matters. Wendy, I won’t argue with you on this, seeing as you are still young. In fact, as someone older
here, I will treat you well from now on.”
Wendy’s anger grew so much at Queenie’s words to the extent that she red at her with bloodshot
eyes. Suddenly, she took a step forward with one of her hands pushing thetter.
Perhaps because Queenie hadn’t expected Wendy woulde at her this way, she was unstable from
the momentum and was about to fall on her back.

The truth was she was able to stabilize herself should she wish. However, she thought that the current
situation was a good opportunity to make Gardner Family and Colton feel guilty by having Wendy
cause her miscarriage.
So, she gave no resistance as she fell on her back. Just as she thought she would suffer from the fall,
someone’s hand supported her and prevented her from falling. After she was on her feet, she realized
it was Nicole who had helped her.
Taking a step forward, Nicole stood between Wendy and Queenie before she lectured the former
furiously, “She’s pregnant. No matter the bad deeds she has done in the past, the child inside her is
innocent.”
As Wendy had done what she did due to her anger, she only now realized the gravity of her action after
Nicole pointed it out to her. If Queenie had fallen here, there was a chance that she would suffer a
miscarriage.
She instantly grew pale as she came to the realization that her action would amount to manughter if
things took a turn for the worse at that point. Biting her lips, she lowered her head with teary eyes and
muttered, “I was just so angry.”
Looking at how distressed Wendy was, Hayden hurriedly tugged on Wendy’s clothes and said, “Aunt
Wendy, don’t be sad anymore. Let’s just ignore this woman now. It’s not worth it to hurt your body over
that woman.”
