Chapter 1069 A Member of the Gardner Family


    When Nicole was faced with the pretentious Evelyn, she couldn''t be bothered with her. Instead, she


    pretended not to see the other woman, deliberately turning her head to Wendy, saying, "Why don''t we


    head upstairs?"


    Wendy went along with her decision to ignore Evelyn and nodded. "Sure, let''s ce our orders first.


    This ce is really busy. Once it''s lunchtime, it will take them some time to prepare the food."


    The look on Evelyn''s face turned sour when both of them dismissed her, and next to her, the woman


    who wanted to suck up to her hurriedly raised her voice and said, "That''s what you''d expect from a


    person raised by a shabby family. She hasn''t got any manners at all and didn''t even know that she


    should respond to a greeting. Evelyn, it''s so embarrassing to have a sister like that."


    When Nicole continued to turn a blind eye to them, the things she said turned even more unpleasant,


    "Tsk, Mrs. Gould shouldn''t have acknowledged her. A hillbilly without any elegance of the upper-ss,


    she''s just a disgrace to the Gould Family."


    Even though it didn''t matter to Nicole, Wendy couldn''t ept such mean things being said and red


    at the woman fiercely. "This is a restaurant, not the washroom. Please don''t spout sh*t out of your


    mouth."


    The woman''s eyes turnedrge with fury when she was told off by Wendy, and she pointed a finger at


    her. "Who the hell are you to shout around here? Evelyn is the youngdy of the Wrenn Family. Do you


    think you can offend her?"


    Evelyn was a little unhappy that this dumb woman was digging her own grave, but she didn''t say


    anything harsh and simply said, "Alright, don''t say anymore. Since Nicole is here to eat and doesn''t


    want to speak to me, we don''t have any reason to annoy them."


    Evelyn was a little unhappy that this dumb woman was digging her own grave, but she didn''t say


    anything harsh and simply said, "Alright, don''t say anymore. Since Nicole is here to eat and doesn''t


    want to speak to me, we don''t have any reason to annoy them."


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Now that Evelyn was being so easygoing, the people around couldn''t help but think that Nicole the


    hillbilly had no manners at all even though both were the youngdies of the Wrenn Family.


    However, Evelyn''s pretentious act made Wendy furious. If she had known that this would happen, she


    would have gone to another restaurant to avoid these oddballs. "Nicole, let''s go to another restaurant.


    I''m losing my appetite just by being around these people."


    This statement immediately sparked the fury of the woman next to Evelyn, and she stepped forward to


    grab Wendy''s arm. There was unconcealed rage burning in her eyes as she growled, "Didn''t your


    mother teach you any manners at all?"


    As she was grabbing Wendy harshly, Wendy''s face crumpled into a look of pain. Nicole immediately


    caught sight of the pained look on Wendy''s face. So, she took a big stride and pressed one of the


    woman''s meridians with her fingertip. The woman shrieked and released her grip. She clutched her


    hand that was shaking from the pain and stuttered, "You… What did you do to me?"


    "Wendy, let''s go." Nicole held Wendy''s hand and wanted to leave, but the woman wouldn''t let her off


    the hook so easily. It was as though she was under Evelyn''s spell. She brazenly stood in their way and


    hissed, "Hold it right there! We''re not done yet! Are you nning to leave just like this after hurting


    me?"


    Wendy''s blood started boiling, and she shoved her aside. Finally, she ced her hands on her hips and


    snapped, "Have you lost your mind? Not even a guard dog barks as loudly as you do. Why do you


    insist on asking for a scolding?"


    "Who the hell are you? A young girl like you has no right to interfere in this."


    Wendy snorted coldly and crossed her arms across her chest. "I''m Wendy Gardner and Nicole is my


    sister-inw. Of course, I have to defend her when you''re hurling such terrible insults about her!"


    After the woman heard Wendy''s name, she paused for a second before reality slowly sank in. Her


    mouth opened, and she stammered in shock, "I-Is your name Wendy Gardner? Are y-you… the


    Gardner Family''s…"


    The smile on Wendy''s face turned even sweeter when she saw how terrified the woman was, and she


    nodded. "Yes, I''m the Young Lady of the Gardner Family. I''ll remember you from now on. So, I suppose


    congrattions are in order as anypanies rted to the Gardner Family will not cooperate with


    your family in the future."
