Chapter 10 Hayden’s Real Father?
Nicole was surprised; she didn’t expect Joseph to know her. She couldn’t help taking another look at the man. He wasn’t bad-looking, and he looked even more handsome in person than in photos. With his dashing eyebrows, pug nose, and charming eyes, he looked just like a pretty boy. “You know me?” she asked curiously. There’s no way Queenie would tell him what happened five years ago.
Joseph’s eyes flickered with sarcasm. “Why would I not know Young Lady Nicole of the Anderson Family?”
Nicole heard the sarcastic note in Joseph’s voice, but she couldn’t seem to recall if she had ever offended him. Before she could speak, though, she heard the man continue, “I heard that you’re gonna marry my dad. So what’s the big deal, bringing a kid with you? Are you trying to get me a younger brother right away?”
A hint of scorn flickered across Joseph’s eyes. I’ve heard from Queenie that this woman wants to be my dad’s second wife for money. I hate such vain women more than anything else!
Upon hearing his words, Nicole finally realized why Joseph was so hostile toward her. However, she wouldn’t acknowledge such groundless stuff. “I think you’re mistaken. I’ve never thought of marrying into the Mann Family.” The smile on her face vanished. She said, “I’m here today to talk to you about the collaboration.”
Joseph’s attractive eyes narrowed slightly with a hint of scorn in them. “Collaboration? You’re Lisa?” He had heard Queenie talk about Nicole this morning. According to Queenie, this sister of hers was so vain to the point where she was almost delusional, claiming to be Lisa. He didn’t believe it at first, but he didn’t expect the woman before him to actually be so shameless as to make up lies as she went along!
“Uh-huh,” Nicole responded.
However, as soon as she seated herself with her son, she heard a scoff across from her. “Haha! Queenie was right. You’re delusional, aren’t you?”
Nicole knitted her brows. “If I’m not Lisa, why would I know she’s supposed to meet you today?”

What a waste of reading! This could have been an excellent novel if it hadn't skipped chapters after 531 and then everything is garbled. Get your act together if you still want a reading audience!!!...
