Chapter 420 I Love You
Queenie took a small step forward, but Colton backed up out of reflex when he saw her move. After she saw his reaction, she looked hurt and bit her lip as tears started to well up in her eyes, appearing very pitiable.
“Colton, do you even find it disgusting when I’m a little close to you? Even though I tricked you, we were together for five years, after all. Don’t you have a single ounce of feelings for me?”
At her question, he merely frowned, and impatience flashed over his face. “You came upstairs with me to talk about the Kohlbergs. If you have nothing to say, then just get out,” he snapped indifferently.
As Queenie listened to his heartless and merciless words, the light in her eyes gradually dimmed, and she sniffled miserably. “Actually, about F&R Enterprise, the Kohlbergs already know that the Gardners want to fight for it,” she said slowly, approaching him slowly.
Regarding F&R Enterprise, Colton had contacted them before, and Gardner Corporation really wanted to obtain their project. He suppressed the confusion swirling in his eyes as he raised his gaze at her and asked, “And so?”
Queenie took another step closer, and he suddenly smelled a scent on her that made him unwittingly furrow his brows in disgust. At first, he thought that it was her perfume, but he didn’t imagine that he would stagger at just a small sniff of it. Since a slight whiff of her perfume caused him to feel a strong sense of dizziness.
He reached out blindly to steady himself, and he happened to grab hold of the desk. With his intelligence, he instantly deduced that the scent must be the cause of this.
An enormous ball of fury bubbled up within him, and hostility surged in his dark eyes, which were fixated on Queenie.
She feigned ignorance as she came forward and leaned on his arm, asking in concern, “Colton, are you alright? You don’t look so well.”
With her sudden approach, he could smell the scent on her again and immediately held his breath to stop inhaling it.
His face gradually paled as he shoved her aside with a firm hand and hissed through gritted teeth, “Queenie Anderson, how dare you d-drug me!”
He never imagined that she would have the guts to roofie him in the Gardner Residence. The audacity of doing such a thing!
However, Queenie wasn’t upset that he had shoved her aside. If anything, she renewed her efforts as she threw herself at him, hugging him tightly with her arms and leaning her head on his body. “Colton, we were together for five years! In those five years, you’ve never touched me even once. Don’t you desire me?” she asked, almost pleading with him.
Afterward, she freed one hand and unbuttoned her top, revealing her fair, white chest.
Although she wanted to seduce him, Colton didn’t think that the view right now was tempting. In contrast, it made him sick.
He held onto the last shred of his rationality with his willpower, extended his arm, and elbowed her away. Despite that, maybe it was due to the effects of the drug hitting him, his face was flushed brightly, and he clenched his jaw. When he turned to Queenie again, his dark eyes were already bloodshot.
“I dare you, Queenie Anderson. You better be prepared for the consequences!”
Nevertheless, Queenie wasn’t even fazed by his threat as a sweet smile appeared on her face. But then, he saw that she curled up the edges of her lips as her face gradually turned scarlet.
Only by being ruthless could a woman truly control herself and men.
Queenie had also drugged herself, and her dosage was much heavier than Cotton. Ruthlessness was the mark of ambition; she had set her mind and given it all this time to make Colton hers.
“Colton, what are you saying? I’m only saying this because I like you. Don’t you want it?” she said, reaching out and feeling his chest. She could clearly feel his firm muscles underneath, even through a layer of cloth.
