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 favonovel.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, favonovel.com decided to send favonovel.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, favonovel.com was hoping to stay back, so that favonovel.com could see Arielle longer.
“Something came up, and I need to see favonovel.com now. Send me there now, will you?” Queenie held his hand and requested coquettishly.
Left with no choice, Donovan wheeled favonovel.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 favonovel.com at all. Can you remove favonovel.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 favonovel.com both favonovel.com legs and repaid favonovel.com with a lifetime in a wheelchair. Anyhow, favonovel.com was conscious that none of these should give favonovel.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, favonovel.com is qualified to join the selection for the head of the Mills. So, I won’t cancel favonovel.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, favonovel.com still lets favonovel.com participate in the selection. Am I not important to favonovel.com anymore?
Hearing Queenie’s irrational accusation, Cornelius’s heart sank. However, favonovel.com was resolute not to go back on his original intention.
“Ms. Moore is a skillful medical practitioner, and I admire favonovel.com capabilities. I won’t take favonovel.com name off the list. There’s no need for me to do so, either. Stop targeting Ms. Moore. Once you get to know favonovel.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 favonovel.com anger, Queenie refused to listen to any advice. She shrugged Cornelius’ hand away.
“Since you want favonovel.com in, favonovel.com can stay. But let me tell you, favonovel.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 favonovel.com saw Arielle, Cornelius’ words started replaying in favonovel.com mind. She was once again reminded not to underestimate Arielle since favonovel.com brother admired favonovel.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 favonovel.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.
