Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 Dirty Tricks

Even though Joanna was unwilling to have any sort of relationship with Queenie anymore, the former needed to get to the bottom of the dress incident if she wanted to let it go.

When lunchtime came, Joanna headed over to Blossoms Steakhouse like she promised.

She got straight to the point as soon as she entered the door. “Mrs. Gardner called me yesterday to tell me that they don’t need my dress anymore. Just what happened for her to change her mind like that?!’

Queenie remained calm talking to the enraged woman in front of her. “Sit down and have some food first, Director Schmidt. We can have a nice, slow chat after eating.”

Joanna couldn’t help but wrinkle her forehead as she looked at the other woman’s relaxed appearance. She remained standing without any intention to sit down when she suddenly chided, “Just what the hell are you up to, Queenie?!”

Queenie proceeded to take a sip of lemon water. With her eyes on the steak in front of her, she didn’t give a direct answer to Joanna’s question. “The steak has just been cooked. It tastes amazing. Give it a try, Director Schmidt. We can continue talking about it if it suits your taste.”

Joanna couldn’t possibly slowly enjoy a steak when she was losing her mind over the matter, but she knew she couldn’t panic upon seeing Queenie obviously putting on an act.

Suppressing her anger, she finally sat down. She then took a bite of her steak before prompting, “Go on. Tell me what happened.”

It was only then that Queenie slowly put down the knife and fork in her hand. After taking another sip of her drink, she suddenly said, “Nicole took Colton away after he got drunk last night.”

Joanna was slightly puzzled as to why Queenie was telling her this. “What are you trying to say?”

“It means that they might have already done the deed.”

Joanna was taken aback for a moment, but she soon asked, “What does that have anything to do with me?”

Queenie smiled in satisfaction when she saw how Joanna tried to remain nonchalant even when the news had obviously unnerved her. She then started to talk about what they came here for. “Nothing. I am just telling you. Let’s talk business.”
