The Fragrance Queen's Final Note novel Chapter 96

So what exactly did Renata say to him to make him back down at the last moment?

Just as she was wracking her brain over this, a car horn honked right next to her ear.

Looking up, she saw a Rolls-Royce parked right in front of her. In the back seat sat the assistant Miles...

Wait, no, she had to call him Mr. Zimmer now!

He was sitting there with perfect posture.

Stanley gestured with his eyes, signaling her to get in.

Queenie glared fiercely at him, turned on her heel, and started walking away.

The car followed her at a snail's pace, and Stanley spoke up irritably, "Are you passing up a free ride today?"

"No thanks. If my family finds out I got into a Zimmer family car, they'll break my legs!"

Queenie was clearly still fuming.

Stanley knew exactly why. "You're angry that I hid my identity from you, but aren't we even on that front?"

She suddenly stopped in her tracks, a flash of guilt crossing her eyes. "W-What do you mean?"

"Are you sure you want to discuss this out in the open on the street?"

Without any further hesitation, Queenie pulled open the door and quickly got in.

"What exactly do you mean?"

The moment she sat down, she asked with a serious expression.

Stanley didn't beat around the bush. "Did you really think all those K-numbered table cards appearing today was just a pure coincidence?"

"Then... what was it?"

Miles, who was driving up front, sighed in exasperation. "That was our Mr. Zimmer covering for you."

Queenie's eyes widened, so shocked she didn't know what to say for a moment...

He knew her alias?
