When Queenie was about to rebuke Gabriel's words, a deep voice sounded behind her. "He's right. One should always take responsibility for their actions."
She stiffly turned around to look behind her in response to the familiar voice, which sent shivers down her spine. Huh! How long have Colton and Nicole been standing behind me? They seem to have overheard the entire conversation. With this realization, she pressed her lips together nervously, uncertain of what to say.
After observing her daughter in such a distressed state, Lydia gently tugged on Queenie's arms, and she gradually calmed down.
Then, Queenie clasped her hands as she stared at Colton, forcing a smile, and said calmly, "Please let me go, Colton. We dated for five years at one point. Please forgive me and accept my heartfelt apologies for what I've done." After saying that, she turned to Nicole and fell to her knees with a thud, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed, "I'm so sorry! I was a fool to do what I had done. Sis, please forgive me!"
"Yes, Nicole," Lydia hurriedly said. "We've lived under the same roof for years. Queenie understands what she has done wrong. We apologize, so please let us go."
On the other hand, Nicole regarded the two women begging on the ground with icy eyes that lacked even a trace of compassion in her bright eyes. Lived under the same roof... Are they referring to the years when I could only eat leftovers? The ordeal of being kidnapped earlier left her physically trembling with exhaustion. So, she closed her eyes and sighed, "Do with them as procedure dictates."
Her lack of mercy caused the usually gentle and meek Lydia to burst out cursing. "Are you looking down on us just because you are a member of the esteemed Wrenn Family? The Andersons taking you in were the only thing that kept you from freezing to death and starving to death! You ungrateful wretch! You are an absolute ingrate!" As soon as she was done speaking, she saw Colton approach her. Then, before she could say another word, he stomped on her knee. The impact of that stomp was so powerful that it sent her body tumbling to the ground, and she found herself in a position where she was kneeling on it.

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!!!...
