Right Person, Wrong Time novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66 Infidelity

Before Lydia could drown in her excitement, the reporters beside her, while recording the picture on the screen, described the scene in exhilaration.

“Isn’t that Queenie Anderson and Young Master Joseph? Oh my!”

“But isn’t she engaged to President Gardner? How could she do that?”

“Tsk, tsk. Look at them doing it so barbarously. Seems like they’ve done this before.”

“This visit sure is worth it!”

Hearing their remarks, Lydia instantly scowled. Isn’t it supposed to be Nicole? Why are they talking about Queenie? She turned to the enormous screen, and in the center of it, no doubt, was Queenie and Joseph. Trembling, she almost tumbled, and as she was hastily going to turn off the screen, Colton came in through the entrance.

He sported a full black suit, and his perfectly tailored slacks highlighted his abnormally lengthy legs. There wasn’t a trace of emotions on his face. And right as he entered the banquet hall, his eyes fell upon the screen. After all, the noise and the attention of the crowd drew him to turn to the screen.

Thoroughly panicked, Lydia quickly turned the screen off. Nevertheless, the sight of Queenie and Joseph fornicating was deeply engraved in the minds of the audience, turning the once-silent banquet into a lively commotion.

Infuriated, William had already seen through the scheme. He went up and glared at Lydia as he gritted his teeth. “What do you think you’re doing?!”

Anna heaved a sigh, visibly unwell. She reached out her hand and grasped Colton, saying, “Go check out what’s happening. If that’s real, the Gardner Family shall not take in such a treacherous woman!”

From afar, William caught the unfriendly expression on Anna’s face. As he was about to approach her, he overheard her utterance and immediately grimaced. Nervous, he went up to her. “Why don’t you take a seat first, Mrs. Gardner?”

At his arrival, Anna’s face didn’t turn any better. Followingly, she scoffed. “Look at the beloved daughter you raised.”

Upon those words, William’s face reddened, but he, too, had witnessed the inappropriate scene, so he could only hold in his frustration. “There must be some sort of misunderstanding, Mrs. Gardner. Queenie isn’t one to do something like this.” All these years, the Andersons were already at their lowest, and without the Gardner Family’s protection, they’d be done for.

Shutting her eyes, Anna obviously had no intention to entertain the man before her. With that, she turned to Colton. “Go see what’s happening.”
