Chapter 533 Teach Her A Lesson

At the social gathering. Nicholas was present too, and Queenie was standing by his side.

“Nicholas, it’s best if we hold off on our collaboration for now. You’re still young, and it’s inevitable that you might not handle some matters thoroughly. After you’ve gained more experience, we can continue our partnership.”

The implications of Queenie’s words were quite clear. The areas where she felt things were lacking pertained specifically to her own daughter, Cassandra.

Nicholas understood as well, his expression remaining gentle as he watched Queenie walk away.

At that moment, Ethan approached him, “Nicholas, you’ve really chosen a good in–law. Although the Evans family is ordinary, Cassandra’s mother is not as simple as she appears on the surface.”

Nicholas merely offered a smile, showing no discernible emotional shift.

As the two of them were engrossed in their conversation, Mason noticed them. Lowering his voice, he said to Nathaniel, “Mr. Rainsworth, Mr. Nicholas is with Ethan.”

The Rainsworth family and the Murdock family were nemesis, with Ethan harboring an intense hatred for Nathaniel.

Nathaniel actually found that Nicholas had been acting strangely recently.

“Keep a close watch on them,” Nathaniel ordered.

“Yes.”

Nathaniel actually went there this time to discern who among his past collaborators was truly sincere and who was merely pretending.

There were still a handful of individuals who were under his care previously, who dared to risk offending Nicholas, coming forward to engage in conversation.

Stella spotted Nathaniel long ago. Seeing him reminded her of the task Nicholas had entrusted to her, causing her to tighten her grip on the wine glass in her hand.

Right then, Nicholas called her, saying, “It’s all up to you tonight.”

“All right.”

After hanging up the phone, Nicholas asked Ethan, “Keep a close eye on Mason, the one who’s always around Nathaniel. He’s quite crafty.”

Ethan couldn’t help but smile. “Don’t worry. As long as they’ve touched anything at the banquet, they won’t have the ability to resist. Besides, don’t we already have other plans?”

Ethan’s favorite thing to focus on was exactly that.

In private, he wished he could eliminate everyone who opposed him.

However, his courage was limited, only allowing him to engage in sneaky moves.

Puzzled, Ethan asked, “Nicholas, why don’t you simply eliminate him? That way, you’ll have control over the Rainsworth family.”

Nicholas had once done such a thing, and his expression darkened instantly when he retorted, “What do you know? Remember this. I don’t want his life.”

Suddenly, at the banquet, Mason received a phone call. He was usually a composed man, but a look of anxiety appeared on his face right then.

“Mr. Rainsworth, my girlfriend has been in a car accident. I need to handle it. Let me take your home first.”

“Okay.”

The group of people headed out, with Mason helping Nathaniel into the car. In a rush, he drove off to replace his girlfriend.

After Nathaniel got into the car, it started moving slowly. They hadn’t gone far when they were surrounded by around a dozen black vehicles.

Meanwhile, seeing that the time was nearing, Cecilia took Elliot with her and drove to pick up Nathaniel.

When they were on the road, they hadn’t noticed someone was tailing their car.

Cecilia then parked her car in front of Four Seasons Hotel, waiting for Nathaniel to come out.

“Can we go in and take a look?” asked Elliot.

“No. We can’t go in without an invitation. Let’s just wait here for Mr. Rainsworth.”

“All right, then.”

Elliot felt somewhat disappointed.

Twenty minutes had passed, and it was already ten o’clock. People were gradually exiting the

venue.

Yet, Cecilia didn’t see Nathaniel.

At that moment, Elliot wanted to use the restroom. “Mommy, I need to use the restroom.”

“All right. I will take you there,” she said.

She parked her car in a conspicuous spot, thinking that Nathaniel could spot it as soon as he came out. Afterward, she took Elliot to the restroom inside the hotel.

hadn’t returned. What’s taking that brat so long in the restroom?

He was unaware that Jonathan was still hiding from the middle–aged man from earlier.

The man had been embarrassed and was stubbornly searching for Jonathan all around. Left with no choice. Jonathan had to take refuge in the restroom.

In the hotel, one of Queenie’s subordinates informed her, “Cecilia has brought the child here.”

There was nothing but indifference in Queenie’s eyes. “What are we waiting for?”

Because of how Cecilia had made Cassandra suffer, Queenie was determined to teach Cecilia’s son a lesson.
