Nicole hurriedly withdrew her gaze, then walked up to Colton before handing his wallet to him. "Here's your wallet, Mr. Gardner; please check and see if there's anything missing from it. If there isn't any, I'll be leaving first," she said, all in one breath.
However, just as she was about to leave, Queenie called out to her, asking, "Why are you here, sis?" Isn't Nicole supposed to have disappeared completely? Why is she here all of a sudden, showing up before Colton with his wallet in her hand no less?! A vicious gleam flickered in her eyes. She happened to be looking for an outlet to vent her spleen after having been reprimanded by Colton just now, and here Nicole was, coming right to her!
Nicole froze at Queenie's words. Not wanting to have anything to do with the Andersons, she wore a distant smile, saying, "Sorry, but you took me for the wrong person."
Just when she was about to leave, Queenie shouted loudly from behind, "It's been five years since you left, sis. Dad misses you a lot. Can you please come home when you're free?"
As soon as Queenie said that, a buzz of gossip immediately broke out from the crowd.
"So this is the Anderson Family's illegitimate daughter?"
"I heard that she shamelessly slept with a guy for peanuts several years ago..."
"Tsk, tsk... Keep your voice down! The other Anderson is still here."
Upon hearing their words, Queenie was inwardly delighted. After all, she was the one who spread all these rumors around. The former eldest daughter of the Anderson Family is now a prostitute spurned by everyone! That's exactly what I wont. I want Nicole to be utterly discredited and living like a stray dog. Only then will I be happy!
