Chapter 1086 I Did Not Do It


    When Queenie was about to rebuke Gabriel''s words, a deep voice sounded behind her. "He''s right.


    One should always take responsibility for their actions."


    She stiffly turned around to look behind her in response to the familiar voice, which sent shivers down


    her spine. Huh! How long have Colton and Nicole been standing behind me? They seem to have


    overheard the entire conversation. With this realization, she pressed her lips together nervously,


    uncertain of what to say.


    After observing her daughter in such a distressed state, Lydia gently tugged on Queenie''s arms, and


    she gradually calmed down.


    Then, Queenie sped her hands as she stared at Colton, forcing a smile, and said calmly, "Please let


    me go, Colton. We dated for five years at one point. Please forgive me and ept my heartfelt


    apologies for what I''ve done." After saying that, she turned to Nicole and fell to her knees with a thud,


    tears streaming down her face as she sobbed, "I''m so sorry! I was a fool to do what I had done. Sis,


    please forgive me!"


    "Yes, Nicole," Lydia hurriedly said. "We''ve lived under the same roof for years. Queenie understands


    what she has done wrong. We apologize, so please let us go."


    On the other hand, Nicole regarded the two women begging on the ground with icy eyes thatcked


    even a trace ofpassion in her bright eyes. Lived under the same roof... Are they referring to the


    years when I could only eat leftovers? The ordeal of being kidnapped earlier left her physically


    trembling with exhaustion. So, she closed her eyes and sighed, "Do with them as procedure dictates."


    Herck of mercy caused the usually gentle and meek Lydia to burst out cursing. "Are you looking


    down on us just because you are a member of the esteemed Wrenn Family? The Andersons taking


    you in were the only thing that kept you from freezing to death and starving to death! You ungrateful


    wretch! You are an absolute ingrate!" As soon as she was done speaking, she saw Colton approach


    her. Then, before she could say another word, he stomped on her knee. The impact of that stomp was


    so powerful that it sent her body tumbling to the ground, and she found herself in a position where she


    was kneeling on it.

    Afterward, he looked down at her with icy eyes. "You have no right to criticize my wife."


    It was only then that Lydia realized she had misspoken in her fit of rage. She opened her mouth to


    defend herself but was interrupted by his frigid statement. "If you wish to keep your tongue intact, shut


    your mouth. Do not say another word or else..."


    The mother and daughter promptly fell silent upon hearing that threat. Colton had always been a man


    who kept his word. That was something Queenie had known for a fact after the years she had spent by


    his side.


    As he led Nicole away from them, he turned to Gabriel. "I leave them in your hands. Do with them as


    you will."


    It was a chance for Gabriel to choose for himself. Then, he stared at the women on the ground as


    emotions warred in his eyes. It took a few long moments of staring before he eventually pulled out his


    phone and called Evelyn.


    "What is it, Gabriel?" she asked nonchntly.


    Staring down at the two women, he softly spoke into the phone, "Colton and I have rescued Nicole. We


    even captured a few people in the process. One of the women says that you''re involved in this."


    After hearing that, Evelyn''s hand tightened around her phone as her breath hitched. She hurriedly


    spoke up to defend herself. "That''s impossible! Gabriel, don''t believe what other people say. I''ve


    already given up on Collie. I do not need to do that!"
