Chapter 1441
“Mom, are you worried about Queenie? I’m worried about her too, but none of my calls are getting
through.” Bonnie came downstairs and hugged Maggie. “It’s all my fault. She ran away
from home because of me.”
“It’s not your fault. Don’t blame yourself. I’ll get your father to look for her.” Maggie patted Bonnie on the
hand affectionately.
“Mom, if it means Queenie will come back, I can just move back in with my adopted parents! Queenie
won’t be happy if I stay here in this house.” Bonnie looked as if she were wallowing in guilt.
“Oh, you silly child. Don’t say such ridiculous things. Both your father and I consider you our most
precious baby. We spent two decades looking for you, and we’re not going to let you leave us again.”
Maggie hugged Bonnie. Moments ago, she had been worried about Queenie, but right now, the only
one she cared about was Bonnie.
Bonnie smirked smugly. She would be the happiest person alive if Queenie never came back! It’d be
even better if she died while out there. That way, the entire Silverstein Family’s fortune will be mine.
Just then, Bonnie’s phone started ringing. She checked to see that it was Leslie calling, so she happily
said to Maggie, “Mom, give me a minute to answer this.”
Bonnie walked out into the garden before answering. “Have you reached, Leslie?” she asked sweetly.
“I’m almost there. I’ll take you to a nice restaurant later.”
“Okay, I’ll be waiting,” Bonnie gushed. Her life now revolved around indulging in all her desires. She
could eat, drink, and shop to her heart’s content.
Life couldn’t get any better than this for her. She was even more thrilled that she didn’t have to see
Queenie around the house anymore.
Soon, the day came to an end, and it was time to get off work.
Queenie had been standing for half of her shift and had to take in a lot of new information for the other
half. At last, it was 6.00PM, and everyone started getting off work. Some went home, while others had
dates that night. She was the only one left sitting in the staff lounge, and it suddenly hit her that she
had nowhere to go.
