My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1471
Bonnie stared at her face and answered without any shame, “Oh, but I refuse.”
The look in Queenie’s eyes could kill. “Then, you’ll pay for that.”
Bonnie froze for a few moments, but she thought things were getting interesting. If I get my hands on Nigel, she’s gonna cry, isn’t she? I’m looking forward to that.
The first thing Queenie saw when she came into the house was her father sitting on the couch. He wasn’t even watching the news like he usually did. Instead, he was sipping some tea, looking like he was waiting for her. She felt a little guilty for having left now that she saw how much her father cared about her.
“I’m back, Dad,” Queenie said.
Brandon sighed. She’s fine. I shouldn’t have been so harsh to her. I even raised a hand against her. She’s my beloved daughter whom I never want to hurt. “I see. I heard you found a job. You can quit if you want.” Brandon loved her. Queenie never had a job before, nor did she even have any job training. He didn’t want her to just stand there and take the workplace’s beatings.
“I want this job. Working is fun,” she answered seriously.
“Even when you’re just an usherette? Can you even stand for hours on end?” She’s so frail. I don’t want her to do this job.
“I was an usherette, but I’ll have an office from tomorrow onward. I’m the president’s assistant now.” Her eyes glinted with anticipation. Should be interesting working as Nigel’s assistant.
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1472
“Who are you working for?” Brandon frowned. I thought she quit her job, but now she’s someone’s assistant? Probably some small–time company.I shouldn’t have yelled at her. She must feel really hurt if she went so far to support herself.
“I’m Manson Group’s president’s assistant. You know who he is, right?”
Brandon looked shocked. “You’re working for Nigel Manson?”
Bonnie came just in time to hear that, and envy filled her eyes. She became Nigel’s assistant in two days?How did she do that? Bonnie sneered. But we have the same face. He’ll fall for me sooner or later. He’ll see that I’m more feminine than she’ll ever be. Any man would pick me over her. I am better in bed than she is, and I know how to please men. It’s a good thing she’s involved with him now because it’ll be easier for me to make him mine. “I’m back, Dad.” Bonnie came in holding her handbag and stared at Brandon like a kid who did something wrong. “It’s my fault you did all that to Queenie.” She brought up the slap.
Queenie was about to let it slide while Brandon didn’t want to bring it up, but he did feel a pang of guilt. Now that Bonnie brought it up, they had to talk about it again.
“You should have shut up if you know it’s your fault.” Queenie shot her a nasty glare.
“If you’re still mad at me, then I’m sorry.” Bonnie always acted like she was the victim whenever Brandon was around.
“It’s in the past now. Go back to your room, Queenie,” Brandon said.
“Where’s Mom?”
“Shopping with Lisbeth. She should be back soon,” Brandon answered.
At this moment, they heard the humming of a car engine in the yard and subsequently, two women chatting happily. A short while later, in came Maggie, and the servant behind her was holding a few big bags. Apparently, the ladies shopped a lot.
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1473
Bonnie quickly went and held Maggie’s arm. “Mom!”
When Maggie came into the house, Queenie said, “Mom.”
Maggie was delighted. Her daughters were both gorgeous. Getting pregnant with them was hard work, but it was worth it. And ever since Bonnie came back, her days were filled with laughter. Even some of her ailments like migraines, depression, and insomnia, were gone. She used to cry just from looking at Bonnie’s stuff and had to take medications for it, but now she was okay.
She bought two different handbags for her daughter and asked them to choose what they wanted.
Bonnie looked at Queenie, waiting for her to make a choice. Queenie picked one and said, “I want this one, Mom.”
“Oh, that one looks nice. It’s my lucky color today. I love it,” Bonnie said on purpose.
Ugh, she just has to take whatever I have. Queenie raised the bag. “Fine, you can have it.”
She picked up the other bag and was about to leave, but Bonnie handed the first bag back to her. “I just said I liked it, didn’t say I wanted it. I wouldn’t take anything from you.”
Disgusting fake b*tch. She snapped, “What do you want, then? Pick one and stop pestering me.”
Bonnie bit her lip and teared up. She looked to her parents for help, and Maggie came over. “What would you like, Bonnie?” she asked gently.
“I’m fine with anything you bought me.” Bonnie pursed her lips.
“Fine. You can have both of them. Happy now?” Queenie picked her bag up and went upstairs. Bonnie pouted. “Was it something I said? I made her angry again. I didn’t mean to.”
“Queenie is a feisty girl. It’s not your fault. Here, you like this one, don’t you?” Maggie gave Bonnie the bag she wanted.
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1474
Brandon sighed. “Stop making her mad, Bonnie. You’re her sister. Get along.”
“Got it, Dad.” She blinked nicely. “I’ll take this to Queenie.” She picked the other bag up and went upstairs.
Queenie had just entered her room and was about to sit down, but someone knocked on the door. “Who is it?”
“It’s me.”
“I don’t want to see you,” answered Queenie.
Bonnie opened the door anyway. She closed it behind her and came over to hand Queenie a bag. “Here’s yours.”
Queenie was really happy her mother bought her a gift, but her mood soured all because of Bonnie. “You like them both, don’t you? Take them and leave me alone.” Queenie turned away.
Bonnie smirked and remarked sarcastically, “I love everything you have. I do want to take them, but that depends on my whims.”
She was not just talking about the bags. She was talking about everything in the house, including the men Queenie liked.
“I try to be a nice sister, but you’re making this hard. I don’t understand how you can be so evil.” Queenie was flabbergasted. We’re sisters by blood. Even if we grew up differently, we should share the same kindness.
But ever since Bonnie came back, she had been nothing but fake and vicious. Queenie tried to hold it in, but Bonnie kept toeing the line. She could even make herself look like a victim over one little handbag.
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1475
Yet, she was now being intentionally obnoxious. She takes my stuff on a whim? That’s not something a girl should say to her sister.
“I grew up in the dregs of the world, sister. You have no idea how it is to live like maggots. Dad and Mom gave you everything you wanted. Piano classes, dance classes, vacations all over the world. Every single thing you use, I could only dream of. No matter how much I tried, my adoptive parents wouldn’t give me what I wanted.” Her eyes were dripping with venom.
Queenie should have felt pity for Bonnie and shower her with some sisterly love, but she couldn’t. “Fine, just tell Dad and Mom whatever you want, but stop being fake. Be kind.” She opened the door and told Bonnie to leave. “I need to sleep.”
Bonnie pursed her lips and smirked. “But I have no idea how to be kind. Do you wanna give me lessons on that?”
Queenie’s patience ran out, and she pointed at the door. “Piss off.”
The moment Bonnie left the room, she turned around and shouted, “Queenie, I came all the way to give you the bag, and this is how you treat me? What did I ever do to you?”
Maggie was on the porch, and she asked, “What’s wrong, Bonnie?”
“Queenie told me to piss off,” Bonnie said sadly.
“Queenie, you just got home. Can’t you be nice to your sister?” Maggie admonished softly.
Queenie stared at the smug Bonnie. I can’t believe Mom would take her side without even asking. “Fine, Mom,” Queenie answered. Not like she could say anything else.
After she closed the door, she teared up. How did our family end up like this? I don’t want to let Dad and Mom down, but this is hard.
Shortly after, Maggie came to discuss something with Queenie. “Your father talked to the Paynes. We will cancel your marriage with Leslie this Saturday. But first we’re gonna have dinner and tell our friends. And then your engagement will be canceled.”
“You can also hold Leslie and Bonnie’s engagement party at the same time. They have my blessing.”
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1476
“Really? You’re blessing them?” Maggie was really glad her daughter could be so generous. It delighted her.
“Yeah. Since he loves her so much, I think I should let them be together. And nobody else is better suited for a guy like Leslie than Bonnie. Get them hitched,” she said seriously.
“That’s what your father and I think as well. He loves her, and we’re good friends with the Paynes. It’s our wish that Leslie and Bonnie can get married.” Maggie was happy.
Right after Maggie was gone, Queenie smirked. I’m going to match them up no matter what. One’s a b*tch, while the other’s a f*ckboy. If Bonnie has Leslie on her plate, she won’t have time to harass Nigel. She had a good night’s sleep.
Morning came, and she changed into professional attire for work. Queenie even put on some makeup and managed to make herself look like a princess.
She had a more natural look compared to Bonnie. It felt like her face was a perfect opal. It was glimmering and comfortable to look at, while Bonnie’s looks had a hint of aggression to them.
She took her car key and went to the underground garage. The place used to only have a white Ferrari, but now it also had a red one which belonged to Bonnie.
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1477
Queenie drove her own car and zipped past the traffic. She was feeling different that day. In just two days, her life changed, and it was all because she ran into Nigel.
When she stepped into the hotel lobby, all the receptionists almost gawked. They couldn’t believe this gorgeous and elegant lady was the Queenie they knew.
She had brand–name goods all over her, and the Chanel bag on her arms was the latest model of the season. Even her heels were the latest model of some big–name brand, but they didn’t look showy on Queenie. She was just so gorgeous, they couldn’t even feel jealous about what she was wearing.
“Morning, Yelena,” Queenie said.
“We almost couldn’t recognize you, Queenie.”
Just then, Queenie’s phone rang, and her heart started thumping when she saw who called. “Hello?”
“Where are you?” Nigel demanded.
“I’m in the lobby. Coming right over.”
“Thirty–eighth floor.”
“Right away.” Queenie said bye to the receptionists and went into the elevator.
“I Googled her. Guess what I found?” a receptionist asked.
“What?”
“She’s Brandon Silverstein’s daughter. Her father’s a billionaire.”
Oh, no wonder she’s Nigel’s relative. So she’s from a rich family as well.
Queenie went all the way up to the thirty–eighth floor. The whole story was made up of offices, and Nigel’s office was in the innermost part of the story. It was spacious and modern.
Nigel was wearing a black shirt and black pants. Unlike his usual self, he looked like a dark knight, and he was staring at her. She looks like a proper lady today. It suits her status.
“Happy to be of service, Nigel.” She approached him with a smile and bowed.
He observed her and was more than happy with her attire, and then he led her to her office. “I’ll take you to your workplace.”
Queenie followed him out and entered an office with a big french window inside. There was a spot for her, and the desk next to her belonged to the other assistant.
“This is Cecily. Try to get along,” Nigel introduced.
Queenie quickly smiled at her. “Hello.”
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1478
“This is Queenie, my new assistant. Get along with her,” Nigel told Cecily.
There was a warm smile in Cecily’s eyes. “Of course, sir.” Cecily had been working as Nigel’s personal assistant for two years. She was a caring woman, and at twenty–eight years of age, she was capable and mature enough to handle things.
Nigel looked at the time. “Time for a meeting. You ladies get to know each other.”
The moment he left, Cecily’s smile turned into a slight scowl, and she turned to look at Queenie. “Queenie, is it? You’ll be handling the files. I’ll deal with Mr. Manson’s personal life.”
“Sure.” Queenie blinked. Oh, she prepared the clothes for me back in Nigel’s house. I should thank her.
Cecily adjusted her glasses and said solemnly, “There is one rule you must remember: don’t get any ideas about the boss. We’re not allowed to date him. That’s the rule.”
Queenie blinked again. “I understand.”
Cecily gave her another look. “Next time, just come in regular attire. You look too much like a princess in this one. How are you supposed to work if you stand out so much?”
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1479
Queenie nodded. “I’ll keep that in mind.”
“If the boss‘ girlfriend sees you in this attire, she might fire you just because she doesn’t like it,” Cecily added.
That made Queenie curious. “Mr. Manson has a girlfriend?”
“Why do you want to know? Do you think you have a chance?” For some reason, Cecily didn’t like Queenie from the first moment she saw her. Maybe it was because of her looks, or maybe because she was wearing brand–name goods all over. Cecily just didn’t like her.
Queenie quickly waved her hands. “No, of course not.”
“Only uber–rich ladies are worthy of the boss‘ love. We’re just the little guys, so give up. His girlfriend was still sleeping in when I sent a set of female clothes to his house, or I would have seen what she looked like if she was awake.”
Queenie’s eyes went wide. “Wait. When did you go to his house again?”
“Yesterday morning.” Cecily rested her chin on her hand. Three days ago, Nigel told her to send a set of clothes over to his house. She thought there must be a lady in Nigel’s house for him to make that request, so she picked some clothes and lingerie from the hotel store and sent them over to his place.
Queenie held her forehead. Oh god, that was me. Cecily thinks I’m Nigel’s girlfriend. “You probably took it the wrong way. She probably isn’t Mr. Manson’s girlfriend.” I need to explain myself.
My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1480
“She spent two nights at the boss‘ place. Of course she’s his girlfriend. I’ve worked as his assistant for two years, and that was the first time a girl was staying over,” Cecily answered adamantly.
Queenie was amused, but she knew arguing was useless, so she smiled. “Anything for me to do?” she asked.
Cecily placed a stack of files on her table. “Turn the PC on and log into the hotel system. I’ll teach you how to handle these.”
“Sure.” She was happy she had something to do.
Cecily had a lot more time on her hands now with Queenie around. She suddenly felt like having coffee. “You free? Get some coffee for us.”
“Sure.” Queenie was enthusiastic about her first job, and she wasn’t averse to doing more work, so she agreed swiftly.
“You need to finish these today. It’s almost the cutoff for the monthly payroll. We can’t delay any longer”
Queenie was a little surprised. I’ve been working for twenty minutes and I only got through two pages.. There’s a stack here. Can I even finish these on time? I think I might have to do overtime. Queenie went and bought some coffee. And she paid it out of her own pocket.
Nigel had lunch with the top brass after the meeting and went for golf in the afternoon. Work hours were already over when he came back to the hotel.
Cecily clocked out on time, leaving Queenie working alone.
Queenie was typing really slowly from the lack of experience in computer work. What was more, she wasn’t too good with numbers, so she had to double or triple check. Work was going at a snail’s pace for her.
Nigel emerged from the elevator. He was just here to get some files, but when he went by the office, he noticed the lights were still on, and there were sounds of someone typing on the keyboard. Nigel took a look and saw someone sitting in front of the computer and typing as slow as a sloth. Queenie? “Why are you still here?” he asked.
Queenie almost had a heart attack. Everyone on this floor should have left. She was the only one working overtime, and him suddenly calling out to her almost scared the living daylights out of her.
