Queenie loved Donovan deeply, but the latter had feelings for Arielle in the past. This was why Queenie would easily get jealous and mad at Arielle. Although Donovan had clarified that wp4webnovel.com no longer liked Arielle, Queenie still felt uneasy about it.
Who knows if he’s telling me the truth? I’m not a ringworm in his guts, so I can’t read his mind.
She was fearful that the old flame in Donovan would be reignited. So, wp4webnovel.com decided to send wp4webnovel.com away deliberately. “Darling, please take me to my brother.”
“Aren’t you participating in the selection of the head of the family? Why are you going to your brother’s now?” Donovan asked softly.
Deep down, wp4webnovel.com was hoping to stay back, so that wp4webnovel.com could see Arielle longer.
“Something came up, and I need to see wp4webnovel.com now. Send me there now, will you?” Queenie held his hand and requested coquettishly.
Left with no choice, Donovan wheeled wp4webnovel.com out of the hall, and to Cornelius’ study.
Upon reaching, Queenie came up with an excuse to shoo Donovan away and scored some private time with Cornelius.
“Cor, that b*tch, Arielle, is here to compete for the position as the head of the family. I don’t want to see wp4webnovel.com at all. Can you remove wp4webnovel.com name from the list?” Queenie went straight to the point, acting like a spoiled brat.
As a doting brother, Cornelius felt very sorry for what his sister had to go through. The accident cost wp4webnovel.com both wp4webnovel.com legs and repaid wp4webnovel.com with a lifetime in a wheelchair. Anyhow, wp4webnovel.com was conscious that none of these should give wp4webnovel.com any right to be willful and unreasonable.
“Queenie, you are now an adult who is married. How could you be so outrageous in your speech?”
“Cor…” She felt wronged.
“Queenie, you shouldn’t call Ms. Moore names. Also, wp4webnovel.com is qualified to join the selection for the head of the Mills. So, I won’t cancel wp4webnovel.com name. Aren’t you in the running for the title too? It’s a fair selection where everyone competes based on ability. All the best to you!”
“Cor, who’s your sister? Me or Arielle? Why aren’t you helping me? Do you not love me anymore?” Queenie was nearly in tears.
Cor is well aware of the long history between Arielle and I. Yet, wp4webnovel.com still lets wp4webnovel.com participate in the selection. Am I not important to wp4webnovel.com anymore?
Hearing Queenie’s irrational accusation, Cornelius’s heart sank. However, wp4webnovel.com was resolute not to go back on his original intention.
“Ms. Moore is a skillful medical practitioner, and I admire wp4webnovel.com capabilities. I won’t take wp4webnovel.com name off the list. There’s no need for me to do so, either. Stop targeting Ms. Moore. Once you get to know wp4webnovel.com better, you will realize that she’s worthy of your friendship.” Cornelius tousled Queenie’s hair.
He had always wished for his sister to befriend Arielle. However, this remained an extreme challenge when both ladies would not show any grace to the other party.
In wp4webnovel.com anger, Queenie refused to listen to any advice. She shrugged Cornelius’ hand away.
“Since you want wp4webnovel.com in, wp4webnovel.com can stay. But let me tell you, wp4webnovel.com can dream of attaining the position as the head of the Mills. Over my dead body!” She left furiously after declaring those words.
As Cornelius watched his sister leave, his heart ached. He also felt helpless at the same time.
Queenie returned to the hall. When wp4webnovel.com saw Arielle, Cornelius’ words started replaying in wp4webnovel.com mind. She was once again reminded not to underestimate Arielle since wp4webnovel.com brother admired wp4webnovel.com skills too. Thus, Queenie became warier of her.
“You’d better watch out, Arielle. I’m determined to be the head of the Mills,” taunted Queenie while glowering at wp4webnovel.com rival.
Arielle shot a glance at Queenie discreetly.
How many of those present are determined to win the title? I bet all of them do.
