Chapter 1514
On the way home, Queenie’s phone rang. She frowned when she saw the caller ID. “Leslie? Why is he
calling me?”
“Don’t answer it,” Nigel commanded in an authoritative tone.
Queenie didn’t answer his call, but Leslie called for the second time. She wondered if something
terrible had happened to Bonnie, so she answered, albeit unwillingly, “Hello! Is something the
matter?”
“Queenie! You finally answered my call. I’m fine. I just want to talk to you…”
“I don’t have anything to say to you.”
“No! Please don’t hang up… I’m so moved today! Do you know how much you mean to me? I just
realized today that you are ten thousand times better and kinder than Bonnie… I was so stupid to break
up with you. You would have been my wife now if I hadn’t been charmed by Bonnie,” Leslie confessed
his feelings affectionately.
“That’s enough. Stop it.” Queenie was irritated by his frankly shameless attitude.
At this moment, the car stopped at the traffic light. Nigel snatched the phone from Queenie’s hand and
warned Leslie, “I like Queenie. Stop pestering her.” After that, he ended the call and handed the phone
back to her.
When Queenie took the phone, her face flushed crimson, and her heart thumped wildly.
It felt as if someone had made a reservation for her lifetime happiness, and the person who made the
reservation was a rich and handsome young man.
Did it mean that the snack pantry in his house belonged to her?
When they reached the entrance of Queenie’s house, Nigel parked his car under the tree. Queenie
looked in the direction of her house and then at Nifel beside her. Then, she murmured reluctantly.
“Thanks for the ride. I’ll head off now.”
“Go on!” Nigel tilted his head and looked at her as he said gently.
Queenie opened the door and got out of the car. Only after watching his car leave did she enter the
house.
As soon as she walked into the house, her parents were deep in conversation, and she heard Maggie’s
guilty voice. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t educate Bonnie well, so the Paynes thought she was an ill-
mannered brat.”
“Alright, don’t blame yourself. We’ll talk to Bonnie when she gets back. But, since Leslie did not want to
take responsibility for what he had done, we won’t allow Bonnie to get married to an irresponsible man
like that. She will have a tough life if she marries him,” Brandon dismissed in
anger.
They were angry at the Paynes instead of Bonnie.
“Mom, Dad, I’m home.” Queenie walked in with her handbag in hand. The moment she caught sight of
Maggie’s red eyes, she instantly headed over to comfort her. “Don’t be sad, Mom. It’s all my fault.”
