The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Noella once thought her parents were just some down–on–their–luck farmers, but turned out they’ve been topping the Harmonia Country rich list for over a decade as super tycoons!

It’s just that Marcel played it super low–key. But darn it, the four Schnabel sons and Elara were just too brilliant, shining like a dazzling pearl on Harmonia’s map.

The Pollacks were also one of the top three big shots around.

Palmer suddenly got jittery, his voice trembling without even realizing, “What if you marry into one of those wealthy families?”

Noella frowned without thinking. Not about marrying into wealth, she hadn’t even considered marriage at all!

Seeing her frown, Palmer’s heart sank, and he gripped the steering wheel tight.

Noella asked coolly. “What’s it to you?”

He’s not from some fancy family. So Why’s he asking?

Palmer zoned out, sighed, and his smile carried a hint of self–mockery. “You’re right, it’s none of my business.”

He still got this darn engagement hanging over him, not in any position to say such things to her until it was called off!

Even if he wanted to take things further, he had to wait till he was free. That was the least respect he owed Noella!

Noella thought maybe she had been too harsh and stung Palmer a bit.

After all, he still needed to drive an Uber to make ends meet, so his family must have been struggling. Same last name as Pollack, but that kind of wealth was out of his league for life.

She had been too cruel!

“I–didn’t mean it like that. You just focus on your job, work hard, make money. Don’t be jealous of the rich. Their life might not be your cup of tea.”

“You’re right.”

A big grin spread across Palmer’s face! He chuckled lowly, his voice magnetic and filled with allure, echoing in the tight space of the car, making Noella’s heart skip a beat.
