Chapter 504 I Will Cooperate

Although Anna had done her best to keep the news from spreading out, Queenie still received word about Hayden’s

status, knowing that he was alive but mentally ill.

That kid is pretty strong-willed, isn’t he? Anyway, I suppose there is nothing to worry about since he is now mentally

ill. After all, I’m sure the Gardner Family will not appoint an unsound child to be their heir.

At the thought of that, Queenie couldn’t help but feel gleeful until she heard another news that Anna wanted to

investigate everyone who visited the Gardner Family that day.

At that moment, Queenie’s face darkened; she knew her plan to marry Colton would be ruined if she was found to

be responsible for Hayden’s ‘tragedy’. Thus, she quickly packed her belongings and made her way to the Gardner

Residence.

In fact, she wanted to go there to see whether Hayden had really gone nuts as rumored. Desperate to answer the

question in her mind, she picked up her pace and hurried to her destination.

When Queenie arrived at the Gardner Residence, the place was filled with nothing but silence. At the same time,

there were more bodyguards than there were before at the door as some of them were even seen patrolling

around the courtyard.

Judging from the eerie silence, Queenie believed that something must have gone wrong in the Gardner Family.

Thus, she scurried toward the entrance, only to be stopped by the bodyguards there, but instead of giving in to

them, she glared at the men with her hands on her waist, grunting unhappily. “Open your goddamn eyes! I’m

Colton’s wife, the young mistress of the Gardner Family. Why are you stopping me?!”

However, the bodyguards appeared a little hesitant because Anna had instructed them not to allow outsiders into

the mansion, yet they had no idea whether Queenie was supposed to be considered an outsider due to her claims.

Just when Queenie was making a scene at the entrance, Colton showed up out of nowhere and looked at Queenie

while saying, “Let her in.”

Queenie was happy, thinking Colton was defusing the situation for her. Thus, she smiled brightly and scurried closer

to the man while trying to seize his arm, but Colton subtly avoided her reach. Nonetheless, Queenie didn’t seem

dismayed at all as she smiled at Colton and said, “Thanks for the help back there, Colton, or I’d still be stuck like a

clown.”

Upon hearing the lady’s skittish response, Colton wasn’t agitated at all as he walked Queenie into the house and

replied, “Don’t mention it. My mother wants to have everyone who visited the Gardner Residence yesterday

investigated, and you happen to be among them.”

Despite Colton’s calm tone, Queenie still felt panicky on the inside, but nonetheless, she did her best to pull herself

together and asked, “Yesterday? Oh, I did come here yesterday. I was waiting for you to return, but when you didn’t

show up, I decided to leave right after dinner. What happened?”

Meanwhile, Colton fixed his eyes on Queenie’s face as the lady played dumb, admitting that she was a good

pretender because he could not see anything wrong with her expressions thus far.

“Someone drugged Hayden, and my mother was exasperated when she learned about that. Thus, she is

determined to get to the bottom of the truth,” Colton answered in a deep voice, a glacial look flashing across his

face.

In the meantime, Queenie pretended to look shocked, covering her lips while exclaiming in surprise. She then gazed

at Colton, trying to show her concern for Hayden. “W-What? How can this be? Hayden is Nicole’s entire world. If

anything happens to that poor boy, what is she going to do?”

Colton squinted while keeping his eyes on Queenie’s gaze, only to quickly look away. “We don’t know who’s behind

this at the moment, so we’re going to investigate every single person who visited the Gardner Residence yesterday

—you included.”

Queenie bit her lips, pretending to look innocent by keeping her head slightly down. Then, she said in a hushed

tone, “Alright, I understand that it’s necessary.

I will cooperate with Mrs. Gardner.” Queenie then changed the topic and looked at Colton, asking, “I’m worried

about Hayden, Colton. Can I see him now?”
