Chapter 1367 Public Display of Affection
After sitting down, it was time to order. When Queenie was browsing through the menu, Nigel came closer to her and read the menu with her. Queenie couldn’t help but exclaim, “This is so expensive!”
“Let’s order one to taste it,” Nigel said immediately.
“It’s alright.”
“I want to eat.” Then, Nigel turned toward the waiter and said, “Add this too.”
Queenie pursed her red lips to suppress the happiness inside. The feeling of being pampered was wonderful.
Bonnie was also ordering the food, but she couldn’t pay attention. She was jealous, feeling the fondness of Nigel for Queenie. In the past, that was how Leslie used to treat Bonnie. However, afterward, Leslie moved back to Queenie, so Bonnie became single.
She couldn’t understand why Nigel treated them differently, even if the both of them looked similar.
“May I know where the washroom is?” Maggie asked the waiter.
Queenie also happened to need to make the trip and said, “Mom, I’ll go with you.”
A gleam of scheme flashed under Bonnie’s eyes as she watched Queenie and Maggie leave. Then, she immediately got up and went to Nigel as she leaned down to approach him. “Nigel, have you tasted this dish before? Is it good? Can we have one?”
She pointed to a dish and asked Nigel as she deliberately showed an innocent look. However, Nigel only felt the smell of Bonnie’s perfume makes him suffocate, so his upper body tried to keep the distance between them as far as possible.
“Feel free to order whatever you want.” Nigel didn’t want to discuss the dishes with her.
“Really? That’s so nice of you.” Bonnie flashed her smile, and her heavy makeup was visible under the light. The lipstick made Nigel not want to look at her more than once, as her face was filled with rich metallic colors, which made her look fake.
Bonnie deliberately stood by Nigel’s side, pretending to be looking at the menu. She wanted to wait for Queenie to come back and see her standing there.
Sure enough, when Queenie walked into the room and saw Bonnie standing beside Nigel, she was annoyed.
“Queenie, Nigel is so kind. He lets me order whatever I want,” Bonnie said with a smile toward Queenie, as if she was praising Queenie’s good taste. In reality, she was trying to show off how well Nigel treated her. However, when Queenie sat back down, he took the initiative to lean closer and stared straight at her with alluring eyes until her displeasure disappeared. Instead, she was getting embarrassed to be stared at by him. So, she reached out to block his eyes to signal him not to look.
However, Nigel quietly held her hand and placed it under the table to grip it firmly.
Bonnie stood close to them, so she directly witnessed the show of affection. Hence, she couldn’t help but feel her heart clogged up and returned to her seat. Then, she saw Queenie holding up a cup and stared at her warningly.
In response, Bonnie deliberately lowered her head to pretend not to notice. It was then that the food came. They opened up two bottles of wine that cost four hundred thousand, and Brandon drank happily. He was happy with his future son-in-law.
Queenie had been blushing, and she had the feeling that her parents could not wait for her to marry tomorrow.
Bonnie’s gaze was full of jealousy and hatred. Bonnie regretted that she had stolen Leslie from Queenie. If she hadn’t stolen him from Queenie, Queenie would have married him by now, so she wouldn’t be lucky enough to meet Nigel.
However, there was no second chance, so Bonnie could only look for future opportunities.
“Mom, I want to go shopping after lunch.” Bonnie felt she lacked attraction because her clothes were not of high quality. As such, she wanted to buy a few sets of the latest fashion to complement her style.
Unlike Queenie, who grew up rich with confidence naturally emanating from her heart, Bonnie lacked that. Bonnie was like a girl that grew up in a low-income family; in the face of the money in the upper class, she was like a greedy minion who couldn’t wait to hold everything tightly in her hands.
