Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 11

Chapter 11 Making an Appointment With Gardner Corporation’s President

Nicole curled her lips into a smile while stroking Hayden’s soft hair in gratification. She didn’t really take offense to Joseph’s words. After all, although she had slept with Joseph that night, she had never thought of becoming a couple with him. “I’m not angry. I’m content with having you.” It’s just that I’ve come for nothing today. I’ve thought that Joseph is only an ignorant and incompetent playboy, but I didn’t expect this playboy to also be a narrow-minded good-for-nothing. She quickly left the mall with Hayden in her arms.

Meanwhile, Queenie was talking and joking with several young ladies nearby as they came shopping here. When she saw Nicole, she had wanted to walk up to her and taunt her a little. However, upon seeing the features of the kid in Nicole’s arms, she was completely stunned. That boy looks just like the miniature version of Colton! He seems to be about four or five years old, which happens to match up with what happened five years ago… C-Could he be Nicole and Colton’s son?!

For a moment, Queenie froze on the spot, as though she had been struck by a thunderbolt. Colton will definitely get suspicious if he sees that boy. If he continues to look into it, will he find out what actually happened five years ago? Once he learns about everything, not only will the Andersons lose the great wealth and glory that we’re currently enjoying, but we’ll be offending the Gardner Family thoroughly! No one dares to fool Colton like this… She couldn’t help trembling at the thought of how harsh Colton could be.

“Queenie? Queenie!”

“Huh?” Queenie came to her senses, only to see her friend next to her looking at her with concern. The friend asked, “Are you alright? You look so ghastly.”

“I-I’m fine.” Queenie pulled herself together. By the time she turned to look at Nicole again, the latter had gotten into her car with the boy and left.

Queenie’s expression was ferocious as she watched the car drive off into the distance. To think that Nicole, that damn b*tch, was secretly pregnant with Colton’s child and even gave birth to the boy! No one knows what happened five years ago except Dad, Mom, and I. The matter’s supposed to be over, but now there’s a boy popping up from nowhere! I’d never let Nicole destroy everything I have now—never!

…

After returning home with Hayden in her arms, Nicole thought back on what had happened, but the more she thought about it, the more she felt that something was amiss. Why would both Queenie and Joseph not believe that I’m Lisa? Not only that, but they both think that Lisa is a middle-aged woman in her forties! After turning it over in her mind, she figured that this could only be Zachary’s doing.

Zachary Yates was the president of F&M Apparel. Having assumed the position at a young age, he was a man with extraordinary means, only that he had bad taste. Nicole had no idea what had gotten into him, but three years ago, he fell in love with her at first sight and began courting her aggressively, disregarding the fact that she already had a child. Nicole rejected his advances in an uncompromising manner without giving him the slightest opportunity, but the more steadfast she was in turning him down, the more aggressively he courted her.

At the thought of Zachary, a hint of helplessness crept over Nicole’s face. She took out her cell phone and dialed his number.
