Chapter 1386 Nigel Won’t Be an Exception
“How can I not be anxious? With Queenie around, I’ll always be inferior to her. Also, what if she gets to inherit more of the family inheritance because she’s better?” Bonnie whispered.
“It’s fine. You can occasionally say some stuff to evoke their guilt toward you, but remember, don’t cause any more trouble.”
“Don’t worry, Aunt Lisbeth. I’ll follow your plan.” Bonnie nodded.
While watching Lisbeth’s car drive away, a sudden thought emerged in Bonnie’s mind. If I get half of the Silverstein inheritance, I’d still need to give half of it to Lisbeth. That’s billions of cash. Why should I share it with a woman who has done nothing?
Then, some new thoughts seeped into her head. She and Lisbeth had only known each other for over one year, and they were merely completing a task together. In other words, there was no filial relationship between them.
Once Lisbeth was dead, no one in this world would be able to expose the secret of her identity.
A vicious glint flashed across Bonnie’s eyes as her lips curled into a smile. At last, she returned to the Silverstein Residence.
Queenie was instructing the servants to do her laundry when Bonnie came up the stairs, after which she could not help but ridicule, “Queenie, you’re such a spendthrift, unlike me, who has to watch my spending every time I head out.”
“Nigel gave me these clothes. You can find a boyfriend, too, if you’re jealous!” Queenie retorted.
“Are you still afraid that I’d steal Young Master Nigel from you, Queenie?”
“He’s different from Leslie. Plus, you don’t have the charm to do so,” Queenie answered calmly.
“From your words, I can tell that you don’t understand men. Men always prefer novelty. Do you think Nigel will still be attracted to you once he loses interest in you? With his wealth and appearance, he has countless women actively lunging at him! By then, you’d have no choice but to cry!” Bonnie decided to plant some evil thoughts in Queenie’s mind.
A trace of anxiety flickered through Queenie’s mind, but she soon stated firmly, “I believe he’s different from other men.”
Just as she was about to enter her room, a sarcastic voice sounded from behind her. “Oh, Queenie, don’t be full of yourself. Once a man gets the woman he wants, he won’t feel the same passion anymore. I’m sure Nigel won’t be an exception.”
“Are you done?” Queenie snapped while turning around.
“That’s right! I heard you received a newlywed home. Now, Dad and Mom are planning to buy me a house too. How big should I go?” With a smile, Bonnie smugly raised an eyebrow.
Naturally, Queenie could not say anything because her parents had long since prepared a 400-square-meters house in the city center as her newlywed home.
Back in her room, Bonnie’s words remained upsetting as they raised suspicions within her toward her marriage. Yet, after thinking about it, Aren’t the happiest people in the world right by my side now?
Ever since she was young, her parents had always been a loving couple and had accompanied each other until now. Therefore, it was one-sided of her to be pessimistic about marriage. Also, she should have more faith in Nigel.
Discarding those thoughts away, Queenie began to look through the files her father had assigned her. While she sat before her computer, she found these complicated sales reports difficult to comprehend, but to help her father, she had to cheer herself up and fight through these boring reports.
She perused the documents until late at night. When she was unable to keep going, she instantly plopped onto the bed and fell asleep.
The following morning, she went to her father’s company at 8.00AM. Meanwhile, Bonnie watched Queenie leave from the balcony on the third floor as her grip instinctively tightened out of jealousy. Although she was not the real Bonnie Silverstein, she had indeed replaced the real one and could not control her greed to want more.
The Silversteins were so rich that she had never seen so much wealth in her life, which fed her greed and made her want to have the entire Silverstein Family for herself.
Now, the only obstacle in her path was Queenie’s boyfriend, Nigel. The more contact she had with that man, the more worried she was that she might not be able to hide her secret and be exposed later on.
