My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1536


    Not a Petty Thief


    Be that as it may, Nigel had gotten up early this morning just for her sake.


    Queenie felt a surge of warmth gushing through her heart, and she suddenly understood the feeling of


    truly being considered important by another person.


    “Let’s have breakfast together, then I’ll send you home.” After saying that, he dialed a number on his


    phone. “Please deliver breakfast to the room.”


    Not long afterward, a member of the staff brought in a hearty spread of breakfast. The food was served


    on the table in front of a floor-to-ceiling window so that they could enjoy their breakfast while admiring


    the morning sun and the sea view outside the window.


    As soon as Queenie finished eating breakfast with Nigel, her phone rang shrilly. It was a phone call


    from her mother.


    “Hello, Mom.”


    “Queenie, did Leslie send you four pieces of jewelry yesterday? Where did you ce the jewelry before


    you left the house yesterday? Bonnie ims that there are only three pieces of jewelry left. Did you


    misce the other piece of jewelry somewhere else?”


    “Mom, let’s talk about this when I get home. I’m on my way home now.”


    “Alright then, pleasee back as soon as possible! Bonnie has already called the police, iming


    that Courtney stole the jewelry.”


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    “Have the police arrived?’


    “Not yet. They said they wille at 10.00 AM. Come back quickly!”


    After ending the phone call with her mother, a look of annoyance shed across her eyes. Just how


    much trouble does Bonnie intend to cause for the family? Must she cause such a huge scandal so that


    the entire world knows about our dirtyundry? Our parents have always kept a low profile and taught


    me not to be pretentious. Look at things now… If somebody posts about this incident on the Inte, it


    will surely affect our family business. It will be even more difficult to clean up this mess if that happens.


    Nigel knew that she was anxious to go home. The excellent sports car streaked forward like a swift


    warhorse as soon as the tires hit the coastal expressway, speeding across the roads with a resounding


    roar.


    The journey should have taken them an hour but was forcefullypressed to just over half an hour.


    When they arrived at the gates of the Silverstein Residence, Queenie turned to look at the man


    wearing sunsses beside her and said, “Mr. Manson, why don’t you go back and sleep a little longer?


    You must be tired after waking up so early today and driving for so long.”


    She did not wish for him to witness the embarrassing situation that had urred in her home. Besides,


    she was certain that Bonnie was the mastermind behind this incident. Even if she exposed Bonnie’s


    scandalous act, there was no triumph to celebrate since these incidents would still bring dishonor to the


    Silverstein Family.


    “If you know that I’m tired, then you should let me rest in your home for a short while before asking me


    to leave.” After saying that, Nigel took off his sunsses with his slender fingers to reveal his beautiful


    eyes which were clearly bloodshot.


    The sight of his bloodshot eyes left her feeling too sorry to let him continue driving, so she could only


    nod and agree, “Alright! You can catch up on some sleep in my room.”


    The two of them got out of the car. Queenie opened the small door and guided Nigel into her house.


    Before they could enter the hall, they heard Courtney’s voice. She seemed to be begging somebody. “I


    really did not steal Miss Queenie’s jewelry! I did not steal anything! Please do not wrongly use me


    like this!”


    At this moment, an angry female voice scoffed coldly. “If you didn’t take them, then are you using


    me of taking them? When Leslie delivered the jewelry to the housest night, you were the only person


    on duty in the house. Isn’t that right!? Your husband is a gambling addict, and your daughter is about to


    enter college. You are in desperate need of money. Who knows? Maybe you’ve already pawned off the


    jewelry!”


    Who else could this voice belong to other than Bonnie?


    “No! No! I didn’t steal anything! Miss Bonnie, please don’t wrongly use me like this! I’ve worked for


    the Silverstein Family for so long, and I know the rules very well. Besides, I am not a petty thief!”


    “This isn’t considered petty theft. That piece of jewelry is worth hundreds of thousands! I can still


    forgive you if you admit to your wrongdoings now. Once the police arrive, you can just wait to be


    imprisoned!” Bonnie’s voice became more and more aggressive.


    Courtney was already in her fifties. At this moment, she was covering her face and wailing in fright. It


    was obvious that she was very scared. Moreover, her body was exuding a sense of helplessness,


    powerlessness, and utter despair.


    She never imagined that she would be used of being a thief at her age. It was extremely hurtful!


    All of a sudden, she heard the sound of footstepsing from the entrance at this moment. Lifting her


    head, she caught sight of Queenie and immediately reacted as though she had seen her life’s savior.


    She ran over from the hall, knelt down in front of Queenie, and clutched at Queenie’s leg desperately.


    “Miss Queenie! Miss Queenie, you’re finally back! Please help me! Please judge my situation and


    prove that I’m innocent!”
