Chapter 279 Useless
Zachary gave a wry smile and finally did not insist anymore. So, he nodded and said, “I understand.”
He stared at Nicole for a while before telling her the worst, “Nicole, if you’re sure, you need to be prepared.
Without me around, my father would act very quickly.”
When she heard this, she nodded as she forced a gentle smile on her face. “I know. Thank you for the past few
days.”
Right then, he felt like a weight had been lifted from his shoulders, and he no longer felt the burden he had before.
Then, he continued, “If I step back, you will be expelled from F&M Apparel in about a week, at most. Nicole, have
you really made up your mind?”

went abroad. It turned out that without him, she would have long lost the title of Chief Designer.
“I’ve thought it through, Zach.” A week was enough for her to make all her necessary preparations.
Zachary continued to look at Nicole for a long time before finally sighing. Then, he continued speaking with a bitter
smile, “Okay, I understand. But, Nicole, you can always tell me what is on your mind. I will always try to help you.”
She looked at the gentleman in front of her and thought of how he would always look out for others no matter
when. Although she was very grateful for him, there was nothing she could do.
…
Back in the Anderson Residence, once Queenie had discovered that Anna knew about Nicole’s child, she had been
afraid to leave the house.
William knew that his daughter had lost the chance to gain a way into the Gardners’ good graces, so his face was
flushed with anger as he threw insults at Lydia. “Look at the good-for-nothing daughter you’ve given birth to. She
can’t do anything! She can’t even hold a man down!”
At this moment, Lydia’s expression changed because she witnessed the events that had unfolded at the banquet
through the news. Anna announced on the spot that Colton had a son. However, he had never been seen with a
woman in years.
And the only woman that was with him was Nicole five years ago.
If she had known this earlier, she would have thrown Nicole to the bottom of the ocean, and Queenie’s lies would
have never been uncovered!
“Neither of you, mother nor daughter, is of any use! Look at Nicole. She is now the Chief Designer of F&M Apparel.
If you look closely, do you think she has skills other than seducing men?”
In the face of William’s wrath, Lydia’s face turned uglier as she squeezed her palms tightly and her pupils darkened.
Just as he was about to continue, she reached out and shoved him. “If you want to take Nicole back as your
daughter, go ahead and look for her. Let’s see if she wants you back!”
William was stunned as he watched this gentle woman change in front of his eyes. Then, he started to ask, “What
are you talking about?!”
Lydia let out a cold snort as she stood in place, looking at him coldly. When she spoke, she had a hint of sarcasm in
her voice, “William Anderson, I was really blind to have married you back then. The Anderson Family would have

faults, you’ve also decided to put the blame on her? If it wasn’t for your gambling, would the Anderson Family be so
looked down upon?”
When he heard this, he was taken aback. He had never known that he was so unbearable in her heart. He couldn’t
stop himself for a moment and wanted to raise his hand to slap her, but she immediately caught him by the wrist as
soon as he raised his hand.
“Are you trying to hit me? Do you know that the Anderson Family is nothing but an empty shell now? If it weren’t for
Queenie and me, you would be nothing by now!”
Lydia threw his hand away fiercely. Back then, she eagerly wanted to marry into the Anderson Family so she could
live lavishly without worrying about food and clothes. She had never expected William to be such a useless person!
At this point, William’s face was red with anger after hearing what she said, but he could unfortunately stand there
mute with rage.
Nevertheless, she ignored him and turned around before heading toward Queenie’s room.
