Chapter 329 Hiring Alice
Queenie felt hurt to see how heartless Colton was. At the start, it was true that Queenie had approached Colton because of how rich the Gardner Family was.
However, after interacting with him for a while, she realized that she genuinely had feelings for him. Yet, the man that she had fancied for five years wasn’t even willing to speak to her. At that point, Queenie felt more determined than ever—she had to succeed this time!
A hint of evil flashed across her gaze as she thought to herself, Don’t blame me for being heartless, Colton. You were the one who refused to play nice.
She softened her tone of voice as she spoke. “I know that what happened previously was my mistake, Colton. I know what I did wrong. That’s why I’m here to apologize. I hired Dr. Toth, and he said that he could promise at least 50% success in this surgery.”
The same cold and uninterested look stayed on Colton’s face, and he didn’t show any sign of emotion at all. “The Gardner Family doesn’t need outsiders to meddle with their business.
Leave before I shout at you,” he uttered. Queenie was hurt by his words, but she no longer dared to linger around after hearing his words. In the end, she gritted her teeth and excused herself.
Anna, on the other hand, sounded rather interested in what Queenie had offered. “Queenie might have made a mistake, but if there’s really a 50% chance of success, then I think we could get Pierre to come over and give it a try.”
Colton knew what Anna was thinking, so he tried to comfort her. “Let’s put Pierre aside for now. I’ve been trying to contact White’s apprentices, and I’m starting to make some progress. Give me until this month, and we can consider Pierre if I don’t find the apprentices.
A look of disbelief flashed across Nicole’s face. How could Pierre promise a 50% success rate? Since when did he become so good at this? Judging by the sort of person he is, he’s probably just lying!
However, Nicole couldn’t say much in fear that she might expose herself. “Didn’t you say that you had things to do? Why are you back so early?”

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!!!...
