Chapter 465 You Don’t Need To Care
Lydia looked at her daughter anxiously. Even if her daughter married Colton in a public ceremony, Queenie was still
aggrieved about the situation. However, given the wealthy lifestyle she would soon enjoy, she would have to bear it
for now.
“It’s okay, Mom. If we make him unhappy, there probably won’t be a wedding,” Queenie said, looking at the
envelope he had given her. It contained their wedding invitation with both their names printed on the cover.
She couldn’t help but smile as she showed the card to her mother. “Look, he cares about me. He even gave me the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcard himself!”
Lydia had been wary of the Gardners ever since they refused to make the wedding a grand occasion, but seeing the
card before her made her swallow her feelings. She nodded at her daughter. “Yeah, we can print this out and give it
to everyone we know back home for them to see you at your best!”
“Sure,” answered Queenie as she nodded with a smile.
When Whitney returned to the Campbell residence, a grave atmosphere greeted her. Her father and stepmother
sat front and center with Michael, her half-brother, sitting beside his mother. Meanwhile, Aaron sat behind them.
Jonathan looked happy when he saw her, but his expression became serious as he said, “You’re back.”
Aaron looked unhappy at Whitney’s return and stood up at once. “Whitney, you don’t need to care about the whole
situation. We just have to deal with the consequences of it.”
Her stepmother became annoyed at his words and stood up, waving him off. “What are you talking about? If she
doesn’t help us, we will be in trouble!”
Aaron was more soft-spoken like their mother, and he had never been this brave before. Whitney’s eyes reddened
as she knew he was doing this to help her.
“It’s his fault that everything happened, and he should be the one to bear the consequences. Whitney and I didn’t
do anything, so why should we be the ones to do so?” Aaron retorted, his face red.

Jonathan had a hard time persuading his daughter to return so that she could meet Douglas and talk about the
situation at hand, but now, Aaron was trying to spoil his plans. In anger, he slapped the young man.
Aaron froze, shocked by the man’s action as he felt his face burn from the impact. Whitney quickly approached her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbrother to look at his cheek. She then bellowed, “Jonathan! We are your biological children. No father will do this to
his kids. Are you putting your hopes on this useless piece of trash right here?”
Michael was so enraged by the term she had used for him that he hit the table and growled and said, “Who did you
just call a useless piece of trash? I’ll teach you a lesson!”
She pulled her younger brother and backed away with a sneer. “You, of course! Are you going to hit me? If you do, I
won’t help you with Douglas’ situation!”
As soon as Jonathan heard her mention Douglas, immediately stopped Michael. “Don’t do it. She’s your younger
sister. Lower your hand immediately.”
Michael was angry at her, but since he needed her help, he backed down instead.
“Whitney, you don’t have to do it. I am not scared of going to prison,” said Aaron quietly while tugging her sleeve.
Whitney shut her eyes. She did not want to help these disgusting people, but she couldn’t just leave her only
brother alone.
