Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1361-1370

Hmm, my friend’s mother met up with Brenda before. I think I can get Brenda’s phone number from her.

Lina made the call and promised her friend she would give her a spot on her private jet the next time she went on a vacation. Her friend readily agreed to the favor because of that.

Lina got a number a while later. She looked at it, feeling smug. I bet Queenie wouldn’t expect an interrogation from the Mansons. Let’s change that, shall we?

Brenda returned home at six. The moment she got out of her car, her phone kept ringing. She wondered who it was. And six messages at the same time?

She checked the messages out, and what she saw shocked her to the core. The woman in the photos was Queenie, and the images were explicit. That woman was resting her chin on the arm of a man, and Brenda could see the man’s hair in the corner of the photo. He also stuck his tongue out. Just the sight of this made her feel uncomfortable.

The following images were even more disgusting, so she swiftly turned her phone off. Her mind was in chaos. Who sent these? Is that Queenie? Did she date someone before? And she even took these photos?

No matter how much Brenda liked Queenie, she couldn’t accept this. The woman in the images was the definition of lurid. Brenda decided to get to the bottom of this as she wanted to know if the woman was really Queenie. Though, in her mind, she already suspected that it was indeed Queenie who was in the photos and that the photos were taken two years ago. If only she had met Bonnie before, she wouldn’t have thought so.

Brenda didn’t notice the overuse of filters in the photos. All she thought was the woman looked really beautiful. She heaved a sigh. Ladies should respect themselves, and they should never walk down the wrong path. If these photos get out, it’s going to ruin her reputation.

She called Nigel, and as soon as the call connected, she could hear her son happily say, “Hey, Mom.”

“Come back home tonight, Nigel.”

“Sure. Queenie’s with me. I’ll bring her along.”

“Is she right beside you? Does she know I’m calling you?”

“What’s wrong, Mom?”

“Just answer my question.”

“No, she’s playing golf. She’s a bit far away.” He noticed Queenie swinging her club, and he gesticulated at her.

Queenie beamed at him and swung her club. Brenda continued, “Nigel, come home alone tonight. Don’t bring Queenie along. We need to talk.”

“What happened? Just tell me, Mom.”

“Can’t talk over a phone call. Just take her home and come back,” she ordered and hung up.

Nigel was flummoxed. Okay, Mom’s being stern. Something big must have happened, and Queenie’s involved. Does Mom have anything to complain about? I gotta find out.

Queenie made a good swing. Happily, she came back to Nigel. She was in white sports attire, and her hair was tied in a ponytail. She looked like a fresh graduate who was full of life. When she approached him, she wrapped her arms around his neck. Nigel held her and spun her around. He then kissed Queenie before putting her down.

Since there was a distance between them and the car, she purred, “Can you give me a ride on your back, Nigel?”

He would do anything just for her. And he had wanted to give her a piggyback ride even before she had asked for it.

Nigel hunkered down, and Queenie quickly leaped onto his back. He easily lifted her. Strolling across the plains under the sunset was a romantic feeling.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned on his back, a sweet smile curling her lips.

“I’ll take you home first. I need to settle something tonight,” he said.

“We aren’t having dinner together?”

“This might take a while. Spend some time with Jessie.”

“Yeah. I do need to spend more time with Jessie.” Queenie thought she needed to stay with Jessie more as they had just reunited not long ago.

After Nigel sent her home, he quickly went back to the Manson Residence. His mother sounded stern, and he wanted to know what had happened.

Brenda had yet to have dinner. Her husband hadn’t come back, and neither was her son. When it was about 7.30PM, she heard someone parking their car in the yard, and her son came in soon after.

“What’s wrong, Mom?” Nigel sat beside her. He was surprised to see her so depressed.

“Nigel, tell me the truth. Has Queenie dated anyone before? How far have they gone?” Brenda wanted to know more about Queenie’s past. The images still haunted her. She was worried Nigel might marry the wrong woman. It would mean disaster for the family.

Queenie had left a good first impression, but the photos showed a different side of her, and it made Brenda panic.

Nigel nodded at her question. “She had dated someone before, but the most they did was hold hands. Other than that, nothing.”

Brenda looked at her son as she was worried that he might have been duped. This was his marriage they were talking about. “Are you sure they’re just friends?”

“I am very sure.” He was certain that nothing had happened between Leslie and Queenie. “Queenie’s a good girl. What’s wrong, Mom?” He was confused by his mother’s behavior.

“You wanna know why I asked all that?” She took her phone out right then and showed him the photos. “Look. Someone sent these to me. And this side of Queenie worries me.”

Nigel took the phone and narrowed his eyes. The woman in the images did look like Queenie, but he knew it wasn’t her. It was Bonnie, the fake Silverstein daughter. “This isn’t Queenie, Mom. It’s Nina, the girl who pretended to be Queenie’s sister.”

Brenda froze. She wore her spectacles and stared at the girl in the images. “You sure it’s not Queenie?”

“Very sure. Someone must have sent you these to ruin my relationship with Queenie. They also want you to think badly of her.”

“But who would do that?” She couldn’t think of anyone who would want to harm their relationship.

“Mom, this isn’t Queenie. Don’t play into their hands. I’ll find out who’s behind this.” He was livid. Someone’s trying to ruin Queenie’s reputation. Bonnie’s jailed, so it’s not her. Someone else is behind this.

Brenda was still doubtful. She had never seen Bonnie before, so she had a hard time believing that a girl who did cosmetic surgery could look exactly like Queenie. “You should look into this. I hope this isn’t Queenie. And I’d like to know who’s behind this.” She wanted the truth. It’d be best if the woman in these images wasn’t Queenie.

Nigel made a mental note of the number that sent these photos to Brenda before going upstairs. Fury welled within him. Who dares to try and ruin our relationship?

How dare they send those images to my mother? They’re trying to ruin my relationship, damn it. Once I find out who they are, they’ll be paying for it. He turned his computer on and texted one of his friends, ‘Find out who’s the one behind this number.’

‘Did you run into something?’

‘Just find out the owner of this number.’

‘Can do,’ his friend texted. He was a powerful hacker who could find anything as long as they were online.
