Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 1085

Chapter 1085 The Mastermind

Queenie was astonished by the unfolding events before her, and she quickly turned to look at Lydia. "Mom, Colton is here. We have to go."

When Lydia heard that, panic began to grip her. She knew the consequences would be catastrophic if he discovered their involvement. As a result, she hurriedly packed everything up, shoved it all into a bag in preparation for a stealthy getaway.

In the meantime, Colton comforted Nicole by wrapping his arms around her as she sobbed into his embrace like a child who had been severely wronged in the world. This was the first time he had seen her act this way, so he spent another few minutes trying to soothe her.

On the other hand, Gabriel could not help but scowl when he noticed the intimate moment between the couple. However, he did not say a word and merely walked outside. As soon as he stepped out, he saw two women sneaking out, so he rushed forward to block their path and inquired in a low voice, "Where are you two going?"

Queenie was startled by the unexpected appearance of a man, but upon realizing it was him, she quickly smiled and explained, "Oh, it's you, Mr. Wrenn. We popped in to check the place out because we were passing by. What a coincidence!"

However, he was not a fool, and a frown formed on his face at the absurdity of what he had just heard. "This whole thing was your plan?"

She stepped backward, realizing she had chosen a flimsy excuse that would be hard to sell. Then, she softly chuckled and uttered, "I'm not that talented, Mr. Wrenn. I am penniless. Where would I find the money to hire all these people? Someone with a lot of money and power is assisting me."
