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.”
Then, the door opened. Bonnie appeared with a sad expression and she admitted her mistake. “Mom, I’m not in the mood for lunch. I blame myself every time I think of wronging Mrs. Lowman. I am really sorry to her.”
Bonnie couldn’t bow down to Courtney and apologize to her, but she could do anything in front of her mother if it meant playing up her good daughter persona.
Seeing Bonnie admitting her mistakes, Maggie couldn’t help but comfort her. “That’s enough. When people make mistakes, as long as they can recognize the mistakes and correct them, it’s alright.”
“Mom, I’m not going.” Bonnie wouldn’t let Queenie continue to mock her at the table.
“Okay. We will be back soon after Nigel treats us to lunch,” Maggie said.
Bonnie was startled for a moment before she hurriedly asked, “Mom, what did you say? Who is treating us to lunch?”
“It’s Nigel. What’s the matter?” Maggie was surprised at Bonnie’s reaction.
“Mom, I’m hungry right now. I’ll go with you. I’ll be starving by the time you come back.” Bonnie immediately covered her stomach and said, “I didn’t eat anything this morning, either.”
“Then, why did you say you’re not going?”
“I’m going. Please wait for me; I’ll go down right away.” After speaking, Bonnie closed the door and rushed to the wardrobe to pick the dress she was most satisfied with. Then, she hurriedly changed into it and went to the mirror to fix her makeup. There was no reason for her not to go to a lunch that Nigel treated.
Not only was she going to go, but she was also going to put on beautiful makeup and dress up.
Downstairs, Queenie got impatient waiting and turned toward her parents. “Mom, Dad, why don’t you guys accompany Bonnie to lunch? I’ll eat with Nigel.”
Based on Queenie’s understanding of Bonnie, she didn’t show up for so long because she was elaborately dressing up to act in front of Nigel.
“Jeez, what’s the matter with Bonnie? Didn’t she say she’ll come down in a while? It’s been more than ten minutes.” Maggie also felt helpless.
Finally, Bonnie came as everyone was waiting for her. She was in good spirits now instead of being listless after the criticism she had just received.
“I’m so sorry to keep you guys waiting.” Seeing that everyone was waiting for her, Bonnie immediately apologized in a delicate voice.
“It’s alright. Let’s go! Later Nigel has a meeting,” Brandon said, and Bonnie immediately looked at Nigel. “I’m sorry, Nigel.”
As Bonnie had stopped addressing Nigel as a young master, Queenie was not happy.
Why is she doing that?!
Queenie got into Nigel’s sports car while Bonnie could only ride in her father’s car, which caused Bonnie to surge with wild jealousy. Nigel’s sports car was very racy, and she wanted to ride in it too.
They arrived at a fancy restaurant. Then, they went upstairs and entered a private room, which Nigel had booked in advance.
