Chapter 449 The Checkup
Colton briefly explained what was going on—he told her that Queenie wanted him to be responsible for the baby, so he had to let her stay at the Gardner Residence so she could focus on taking care of the baby in her belly.
After Mrs. Garnder fully understood the whole situation, she suddenly realized something. Hence, she looked up at Colton, asking, “Are you plotting to punish her?”
Colton was not shy about admitting to such a scheme. On the contrary, his eyes were filled with vengeance; he was adamant about getting revenge on that treacherous woman.
“Yes. I would not let Queenie off the hook that easily, especially after drugging me and using such vile means just to get into the Gardner Family.”
Mrs. Gardner felt glad knowing that he was only playing along with Queenie. She slowly sat down, saying, “You should’ve told me about it sooner. You almost gave me a heart attack.”
Mrs. Gardner genuinely thought that her son had taken leave of his senses and that he wanted to date Queenie. She was relieved that it was all just a hoax.
When Colton saw how irritated she was, he immediately soothed, “Alright, I’m sorry, Mom. But please don’t tell Wendy since you know how she can never keep her mouth shut.”
Mrs. Gardner slowly nodded in agreement. She felt much more at ease knowing Colton wasn’t indeed into Queenie.
“That being the case, I’ll let you deal with it alone.”
Colton nodded, satisfied.
He headed upstairs after clearing things up with his mom. Meanwhile, Ms. Edith had already brought Queenie to the guest room.
When he walked in, Ms. Edith was still helping her unpack her stuff.
He glanced at her, saying, “Ms. Edith, I need to talk to Queenie—can you excuse us, please?”
She dropped everything, and she left the two alone in the room without saying a word.

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!!!...
