Chapter 1514
On the way home, Queenie’s phone rang. She frowned when she saw the caller ID. “Leslie? Why is he calling me?”
“Don’t answer it,” Nigel commanded in an authoritative tone.
Queenie didn’t answer his call, but Leslie called for the second time. She wondered if something terrible had happened to Bonnie, so she answered, albeit unwillingly, “Hello! Is something the
matter?”
“Queenie! You finally answered my call. I’m fine. I just want to talk to you…”
“I don’t have anything to say to you.”
“No! Please don’t hang up… I’m so moved today! Do you know how much you mean to me? I just realized today that you are ten thousand times better and kinder than Bonnie… I was so stupid to break up with you. You would have been my wife now if I hadn’t been charmed by Bonnie,” Leslie confessed his feelings affectionately.
“That’s enough. Stop it.” Queenie was irritated by his frankly shameless attitude.
At this moment, the car stopped at the traffic light. Nigel snatched the phone from Queenie’s hand and warned Leslie, “I like Queenie. Stop pestering her.” After that, he ended the call and handed the phone back to her.
As soon as she walked into the house, her parents were deep in conversation, and she heard Maggie’s guilty voice. “It’s all my fault. I didn’t educate Bonnie well, so the Paynes thought she was an ill-mannered brat.”
“Alright, don’t blame yourself. We’ll talk to Bonnie when she gets back. But, since Leslie did not want to take responsibility for what he had done, we won’t allow Bonnie to get married to an irresponsible man like that. She will have a tough life if she marries him,” Brandon dismissed in
anger.
They were angry at the Paynes instead of Bonnie.
“Mom, Dad, I’m home.” Queenie walked in with her handbag in hand. The moment she caught sight of Maggie’s red eyes, she instantly headed over to comfort her. “Don’t be sad, Mom. It’s all my fault.”
