Chapter 451 I’m Not Afraid
All of Bryan’s anger dispersed upon hearing that Queenie could be pregnant with his child.
His dull face was lit with joy.
He had been married to his wife for eight years, but they’d never been able to have a child. He even had many mistresses, but none of them had ever successfully carried his child, even without taking birth control pills.
After he went to the hospital for a checkup, the doctors discovered that it was because he suffered from hypospermia, which made it harder for him to impregnate women.
He was already on the verge of giving up on having children, but luck was on his side as he heard the news that Queenie was pregnant with his child. If it were true, then he had to get her back.
“You’re right! If that b*tch really has my child, I must get her back!”
Bryan thought for a moment before saying, “Send someone to spy on the Gardners. If Queenie ever steps foot out of their house, bring her to me immediately. Remember, do it as discreetly as possible, and don’t let the Gardners discover anything.”
The butler nodded upon receiving orders and got right to it.
Queenie had been staying at the Gardner Residence for about a week. Even so, Wendy was still pretty repugnant about her staying with them. Right now, even her mom had already accepted the fact that Queenie was staying with them.
That angered her even more. Wendy could never admit to such a woman as her sister-in-law.
Nicole came over to the Gardner Residence once to visit Mr. Benedict. When Wendy learned that Nicole paid them a visit, she immediately dragged Nicole over to rant about Queenie. She even emphasized how she would rather have Nicole as her sister-in-law instead.
Nicole only smiled and didn’t say much as Wendy ranted. Nevertheless, she alluded to the frustrated girl with one sentence—
“You need to respect your brother’s decision.”
After she bid Wendy goodbye, Queenie suddenly popped out of nowhere. Apparently, she overheard their conversation and wasn’t too happy about what Wendy said about her.
She marched angrily at Nicole before she raised her arm; she wanted to slap her so badly, but Nicole was no pushover. When she saw Queenie with her arm raised, she immediately grabbed Queenie’s arm. She scoffed as she squinted her eyes, “What are you up to?”
Queenie’s eyes dripped with spite as she was furious at the sight of Nicole. She pried off Nicole’s hand and arrogantly declared, “Nicole, I’m pregnant with Colton’s baby, and Colton’s already accepted me as his family. So what are you still doing here at the Gardner Residence?”
Queenie’s agitation grew as she spoke. If it weren’t for you, I would’ve become Mrs. Gardner by now. It is all Nicole’s fault! Queenie screeched in her head.
I’ve almost succeeded, but as always, this b*tch just had to show up and spoil everything for me!
Queenie’s fuming face amused Nicole. She sneered as she landed her gaze on Queenie’s belly.
It’s only been a month or so, so her baby bump was still barely visible. Queenie was also wearing loose clothes, making it harder to see her baby bump.
“Queenie, aren’t you being a little too confident? Do you really think that you can give birth to your baby?”
Queenie’s face darkened, so she glared at Nicole as she spat, “What are you implying?”
“I meant it literally.” She ridiculed her in response.
Queenie scrunched her face and raised her voice as she shrieked, “Are you plotting to murder my baby?”
She looked terrified by such an implication, but deep down, she hoped it was true. If Nicole had those intentions, it would work in her favor because she could place all the blame on Nicole and get away with it.
“Why would I? Once you give birth to that baby and do a DNA paternity test, you’re the one who would be humiliated.”
Queenie was slightly taken aback by Nicole’s words. She looked at Nicole and noticed that Nicole was composed as if she knew something.
Queenie clenched her fist as she acted all innocent, saying, “What are you trying to say? The baby is Colton’s, and I’m not scared of doing a DNA paternity test after the baby is born!”
