Chapter 264 B*stard Child
Nicole had been dragged away by a group of burly men before she could even react. Being the smart person that she was, she could immediately guess what was going on.
As everyone came into the residence, the atmosphere in the living room instantly turned gloomy to the point where it was scary. Olivia’s face was sullen and the instant she saw Nicole coming in, she raised her voice and exclaimed, “I am not going to allow a b*stard child to become one of the Gardners!”
Nicole knew that Olivia was talking about her. After the bodyguards let her go, she reached out and rubbed the soreness in her shoulders. She was still confused by Anna’s sudden and unexpected announcement.
Anna’s expression didn’t look any better than Olivia’s, but her voice went soft when she saw Nicole walking in. “Come over here, Nicole,” she gently ushered.
Nicole hesitated for a moment before she obediently walked over.
Anna took a look at Nicole, and turned to look at Olivia briefly before she said calmly, “Nicole’s child is also Colton’s child. Nicole, we would like to give you an official position in our home if you and Colton aren’t against it.”
Nicole still hadn’t snapped out of her reverie when she heard those words that gave her another shock. She didn’t expect to hear something like that coming from Anna.
Of course, Olivia was unhappy with the offer. She proceeded to noisily stand up and roar, “What right does a promiscuous woman like her have to be one of us?!”
Even though Anna was usually a gentle person, she refused to budge in this matter.
“Olive, you are Mrs. Schumacher now. Why don’t you take care of your family before you stick your nose into ours?!”
“Don’t you take advantage of the situation, Anna. I was a Gardner, and you were a Lowre. You are the outsider here!” Olivia shrieked.
Anna Lowre was Anna’s maiden name before she got married.
Benjamin, who had been quietly thinking off to one side, was getting a headache from watching the two women going for each other’s throat. “Enough! Stop fighting.” He grunted. “It is Wendy’s birthday. Don’t make a scene 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!!!...
