Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1261-1270

After hearing it, Courtney swayed and almost passed out from anger.

Queenie was anxious too. She was sure Bonnie had wronged Courtney, but her parents didn’t know.

“Bonnie, the jewelry was given to me by Leslie. Even if one box is lost, that’s something I should worry about. I’m sure Mrs. Lowman didn’t do it. Let me resolve this matter; don’t you intervene.”

“Mom, did you hear what she just said? I was trying to help her. However, she thinks I’m meddling.” Bonnie pouted with her red lips as she showed an affronted expression. “I’m a Silverstein, too; why can’t I take care of the affairs of the family? Am I always an outsider in Queenie’s eyes?”

“Queenie, this…” Maggie was in a difficult position.

At this moment, a clear and charming male voice rang from the hall. “Queenie, I found the jewelry you lost. Take a look.”

Everyone turned around, and Maggie was taken aback. Why is Nigel here?

On the other hand, Bonnie looked in disbelief at the four jewelry boxes in Nigel’s hand. No way. Why are there four boxes? I took one of them!

Queenie immediately understood the situation. She remembered Ashley had sent a box earlier, which meant Nigel was giving her a solution to the problem at hand in a good way.

“Yes, these are the four boxes of jewelry that Leslie gave me. All of them are found. Thank you, Nigel.” Queenie looked up at him gratefully and changed the way she addressed him.

Maggie couldn’t help but let out a sigh of relief and apologized to Courtney. “I’m sorry, Courtney. Bonnie has wronged you.”

Courtney cried tears of joy as she watched all four boxes of jewels, which meant her suspicions were cleared up.

At that, she looked at the handsome Manson. “Thank you, Young Master Nigel. You are kind.”

After the initial shock, Bonnie finally realized that Nigel had deliberately bought another jewelry box to help Queenie. With the four boxes found, the matter would be concluded.

On the other hand, she got a charge of defamation.

Moreover, Queenie seized the opportunity to teach Bonnie a lesson.

“Bonnie, apologize to Mrs. Lowman.” Queenie fixed her gaze on Bonnie.

“I-I did wrong her, but there’s no need to apologize!” Bonnie had an aggrieved look on her face. “I saw only three boxes on the couch last night!”

“You wronged Mrs. Lowman, but you don’t even want to give her an apology? Is that fair to her? Even if Dad and Mom dote on you, you must apologize.” Queenie didn’t budge.

“You… Mom, I…” Bonnie hurriedly asked Maggie for help. She couldn’t apologize to a lowly servant.

At this time, Brandon also came over as the police had already left. He heard what happened over here in the garden earlier. Firstly, he greeted Nigel politely. “Nice to meet you, President Manson.”

“Hello, Mr. Silverstein,” Nigel answered with a smile.

“Bonnie, I’ve heard everything. Queenie is right; you should apologize.” Brandon took on a serious face. In front of Nigel, he had to put on a show as a proper father.

Although Bonnie was reluctant, she still apologized as Nigel was there.

“I’m sorry, Mrs. Lowman. I’ve wronged you.” Bonnie also hated Queenie. It was Queenie’s fault that caused her to do this. Queenie must have deliberately made Nigel buy a box of jewelry. I did not expect that, but I can now own the jewelry, as Queenie wouldn’t pursue it any further.

However, Courtney looked away as she didn’t want to accept such an insincere apology from Bonnie.

“Courtney, the Silverstein Family should apologize to you regarding this matter. Bonnie has wronged you, and we’re sorry,” Maggie said tenderly.

Then, Courtney finally nodded and said, “I can leave this matter alone, but I don’t want to work here anymore. After this incident, I’m afraid that Miss Bonnie will still wrong me.”

“Mrs. Lowman, please don’t leave us. I’m used to your cooking, so please stay!” Queenie said with reluctance.

“Miss Queenie, I, too, have enjoyed working in this family. However, I must go now.”

“No, I can never taste your shrimp chowder or spaghetti anymore.” Queenie’s eyes turned red as she didn’t want Courtney to leave.

“Miss Queenie… I will miss you too,” Courtney said as her eyes turned red.

At this moment, Nigel spoke to Courtney. “Mrs. Lowman, I have a proposal. My house is short of someone to help with housekeeping. Why don’t you work with me? In this way, Queenie can have your cooking again.”

When Courtney heard that, she looked at Nigel with surprise. “Really? I-I can work at your house?”

Queenie was also happy that Nigel gave Courtney a job, so she hurriedly persuaded, “Mrs. Lowman, just say yes!”

“Yes… I will work for you with all my heart,” Courtney responded with tears of joy.

The Silverstein couple was happy for her too. In this way, Courtney had another job without a long search.

There was only one that was unhappy with the outcome, and that was Bonnie. Everything Nigel did today was for Queenie; even the maid accepted the offer to work at his house.

“Thank you, Mr. Nigel. I’m sorry to make you watch this incident. Let’s drink some tea in the hall,” Brandon said.

Then, Nigel turned to follow Brandon to drink tea. On the other hand, Maggie was comforting Courtney. Bonnie’s gaze was fiercely fixed on Queenie. Then, Bonnie walked to Queenie’s side and said through clenched teeth, “Well done, Queenie.”

Immediately, Queenie reached out to Bonnie. “Give me back that jewel.”

Bonnie rolled her eyes. “I don’t have it.”

Queenie, too, was not in a hurry. She would find where the jewelry went and wouldn’t let Bonnie have it.

After drinking tea for a while, Queenie said to her father, “Dad, I want to tell Nigel something.”

Afterward, she commented to Nigel, “Come to my room.”

So, Nigel got up and followed her upstairs. Bonnie stared at them with jealousy as she felt that Queenie deliberately acted that way for her.

“Bonnie, you are grounded. Think about your actions today. Do not talk nonsense if you don’t have evidence to back it up,” Brandon told Bonnie.

Bonnie had lost some affection in her parents’ eyes after this incident, which deepened her hatred toward Queenie.

When Queenie entered the room and saw the box, she curiously came over and took a look. Then, she widened her beautiful eyes. “Why did you buy so many?”

“I won’t allow my woman to go without jewelry to match her clothes.” Nigel closed the door and curled his lips into a smile. “From now on, just tell me what you want.”

At that, Queenie turned around and did one thing she had always wanted to do. She got up and lunged toward Nigel to wrap her arms around his neck as she kissed him on his cheek.

“Thank you. You’ve helped me a lot today,” Queenie stated gratefully.

“Just a kiss?” The man felt that wasn’t enough repayment and that he needed at least a few more kisses.

However, Queenie got a little shy, so she buried herself in his arms and murmured, “I’ll repay you later. I’m embarrassed to do so in my house.”

When Nigel heard that, he leaned down and stamped her lips. “Okay, you must make up next time.”

On the other side, Bonnie returned to her room, and her face turned pale with anger. Courtney’s incident had ended, and she was now defamed in front of Nigel. Not even her parents were on her side. It was the first time she had felt frustrated since she came home.

Bonnie was reluctant, especially after seeing Nigel’s love for Queenie. It made her foresee Queenie becoming Mrs. Gardner.

If Queenie becomes Mrs. Gardner, I can’t act freely in this house anymore.

No, I must not let Queenie marry Nigel.

Queenie did not let Nigel stay in her room for too long as she was afraid her parents would misunderstand, so they went downstairs after chatting in the room for a while. Nigel was also going to a meeting over at the hotel.

However, Maggie spoke to him enthusiastically. “Nigel, have lunch before you leave!”

“Mom, he has an urgent meeting,” Queenie said.

“You have to eat lunch even if there’s an urgent meeting! How about we eat at a restaurant?” Brandon wanted to know more about the future son-in-law.

“Mom, he—”

“Sure, Mr. and Mrs. Silverstein. Let’s all go out for a meal. It’s my treat,” Nigel stated with a smile. She wanted the couple to know more about him so that they would feel safe in his pursuit of their daughter.

“No, I can’t let you do that. Let us treat you!” Maggie laughed, feeling utterly happy.

“No, I insist.” Nigel wanted to please the couple from the bottom of his heart.

Ultimately, they didn’t fight over the bill and let Nigel treat them.

Maggie went upstairs and knocked on Bonnie’s door. “Bonnie, we’re going out for lunch.”
