The Banquet Begins
As soon as the banquet began, Wendy strutted into the hall clad in the dress Nicole designed for her. A
series of murmurs could be heard the moment she made her appearance. It only took a second for her
to have invoked discussion among the attendees of the banquet.
“Is the jewelry Miss Gardner has around her neck from Triton Studio? It is this season’s main product,
yes?”
“Right! I saw it during Triton Studio’s press release. There is a rumor that it will be lent to the princess
of the royal family. I am surprised to see it on one of the Gardners.”
“That is the Gardner Family for you. They must have gained a reputation for their big family business
that they even got a word in with Triton Studio!”
And it went on and on.
Everyone had noticed the necklace on Wendy’s neck at a glance. After all, only the rich and powerful
were invited. These people who had been around and had seen their fair share of the world had
naturally detected the most important thing of all.
The banquet officially started after Anna went on stage and made a few polite remarks.
As Chief Designer of F&M Apparel, Nicole had shown her face at the company’s annual dinner last
time. A lot of people who recognized her all scurried to greet her.
Not one who liked things superficial, Nicole exchanged courtesies with them before she found a corner
to hide in.
It wasn’t long after she sat down when Queenie appeared. When Nicole glanced to the side, she
noticed that Joseph was standing beside Queenie.
Now when did they get involved with each other? she wondered.
Still, she ignored them and continued to bow her head, taking sips of her fruit juice.
Joseph was the first who spoke, and rather politely at that. “Long time no see, Miss Lisa.”
Not liking the man very much, Nicole only lowered her gaze and hummed in acknowledgement.
When Queenie saw this, she turned to Joseph and suggested, “How about you go ahead and enjoy
yourself? I will have a chat with my sister.”
The man knew all too well that he wasn’t going to gain anything from staying here, so he nodded
before he walked away.
Queenie only removed the gentle façade she put on after he left. Her eyes were now glaring at Nicole
as she hissed, “How thick-skinned of you to sit here.”
Nicole raised her eyebrows at that, but her expression didn’t change. After putting her glass of juice
down, she asked in return, “I remember Colton terminated his relationship with you. How come you
have the face to come here? And with Joseph at that.”
Queenie’s face immediately turned ashen.
The Andersons had been struggling to keep afloat after Colton had officially broken off their
engagement. She didn’t get the invitation to the banquet from the Gardners, but since the Manns did,
she had no choice but to beg Joseph to bring her along.
Joseph was a casanova. After hearing that Queenie was no longer affiliated to the Gardner Family, he
held no reservations whatsoever when he boldly agreed to it on the terms that she had to spend a night
with him.
She had refused at first, but after finding many ways that didn’t work, she could only bite the bullet and
accept his offer.
Like the playboy that he was, Joseph had exceptional skills in bed that left her limp and tingly all over
by the time he was done.
Queenie still remembered what he said when he got out of bed. “Sheesh, no wonder you are Colton’s
woman. You are as tight as a virgin.”
Queenie saw red in that instant. She had had many men in the past, but she had remained chaste for
five whole years after meeting Colton. Joseph’s words were nothing but a joke to her.
“Why do you care who I am here with? You’re really shameless, Nicole. We are half-sisters, after all.
Don’t you feel ashamed about crawling into your sister’s fiancé’s bed?” Queenie bellowed at her. Her
eyes were filled with anger as though she was ready to gobble Nicole up.
However, Nicole only provoked her carelessly, “Oh? What are you going to do about it, then? What’s
wrong? Are you pissed because you are embarrassed? Are you going to kill me?”
Queenie was taken aback when Nicole admitted it without putting up a fight. It made her so angry she
was starting to shake. I knew it! Colton only terminated our relationship because of this b*tch!
