My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 1190
Culver's way of punishing the two men had agitated Evan.
Hearing that he was next, Evan stuttered in terror.
"It's my fault for not maintaining my subordinates well and causing this misunderstanding. Either way, I'm still your senior, so you-"
Culver sneered, "Senior? Are you sure you're qualified to be regarded as my senior?"
Evan's heart sank in an instant.
He quickly looked at Queenie, who had been standing next to him without saying anything.
"I'm Queenie's uncle. The relationship between the Louis family and the Zac family has always been good. You and Queenie are so close now, hence you have to let her save face, right? Queenie, say something!"
At the moment, Queenie was also a bundle of nerves.
She considered herself to be quite sophisticated. After all, she had socialized with the upper class many times. Besides, she reckoned that she knew what kind of person Culver was.
With that being said, how Culver treated those two
men still filled her with fear.
He didn't become hysterical, nor did he have a fierce look on his face. All he did was just sit there, yet the leisurely look in his eyes was enough to make people's blood run cold. Consequently, she forgot to speak.
It was only when Evan called out to her that she came to her senses and tried to say something to help Evan.
"Culver, I-"
Culver questioned her sternly, "Are you sure you want to intercede with me on his behalf? Before this, there hasn't been any enmity between the Louis family and I. Why did Evan suddenly start to harm the people I associate myself with? You're here too. It's very difficult for me to not assume that you two are working together."
Queenie panicked, "No! I'm not involved in his plot. It has nothing to do with me!"
It had taken her a lot of effort to finally form ties with Culver. The news of both of them being together had also been spread throughout Greene City. If anything were to happen and affect their relationship at the moment, not only would she become the subject of local gossip, her parents might not spare her too.
She would not allow such a thing to occur.
"Are you absolutely certain that you're not involved in this at all?"
Queenie pursed her lips. She faced the dilemma of lying to Culver or facing his wrath at present. Either way, it would be an irredeemable mistake for her.
However, she had no option but to choose one of them.
She would, of course, choose the most favorable answer. "Yes, I'm certain."
She nodded, "I didn't know anything about his plan."
Evan was not a man to be trifled with. He was incensed by Queenie's decision to brush off her responsibilities.
As a matter of fact, the friendship between businessmen was nothing more than mutual benefit.
If the mutual benefit was gone, then the friendship between the two of them would no longer be there.
"What are you talking about? Didn't you know about this? In the very beginning, you were the one who told me the relationship between Naomi and Culver. You've always been telling me that we can't let that girl get away!"
"Uncle Evan, why are you defaming me right now?"
Queenie began to complain at once, "I have a good relationship with Culver, and Naomi is his friend. Why would I do such a stupid thing and ruin my relationship with him?"
"Because you were jealous, you..."
Then, the two of them started to fight like cats and dogs.
Culver was not in a hurry. He just sat there leisurely and listened to them for a while before he got up.
"That's enough! You two can stop now. I still have something to do. I have to go first!"
Queenie and Evan both breathed a sigh of relief, and she ran over to him quickly.
"Culver, I'll leave with you."
"No! I advise you to make a call and have your chauffeur pick you up. I'm afraid that you will be in danger after I leave."
Queenie was befuddled as she asked, "Why?"
Culver looked at Aaron's phone and said, "We've been livestreaming the entire thing."
The whole quarrel between Queenie and Evan had been streamed through the phone.
Evan was as mad as a hornet, "Culver, you despicable b*stard! Why are you doing this to
me?"
Culver cast a glance at Aaron's phone again to remind him that the stream was still going on. As a result, Evan could only shut his mouth.
After that, Culver left with Aaron and his men.
Queenie wanted to catch up but she failed, thus she took out her mobile phone to make a call. To her consternation, Evan came up to her and snatched her phone.
"You've made me suffer so many losses, yet you want to leave? Don't even think about that! Guys, confine her and inform her father. Tell him to figure out a way to compensate me before coming to save Queenie!"
"Yes, sir!"
When Naomi arrived home, she received a message from an unfamiliar phone number.
"I'm fine. Culver didn't do anything to me. Don't worry."
Obviously, it had been sent by Nelson. Upon reading the message, she gave a sardonic smile. She wondered why he felt that she would be worried about him.
Just when she was about to put down her phone, she saw another piece of news.
Initially, she disliked reading gossip, but she clicked on it with some curiosity because she had noticed Queenie's name.
Subsequently, she saw how Queenie and Evan had argued with each other.
There were netizens mocking them through the comment section below.
Naomi really hated Evan. She hadn't forgotten what he had done to her before. It turned out that he was behind the whole plot of the ambush.
She was not surprised by that revelation. Such a wicked person could do anything.
Since Evan had gotten his retribution, Naomi decided to let the matter go. She had always adhered to her principle that every wrong done to her should be avenged without delay. After reading the article for a while, she was about to shut her phone off as she found it boring.
However, before she did so, she caught a fleeting glimpse of the corner of a shirt.
It belonged to the same shirt that she had seen in the hospital that day. She recollected that Culver had worn it to the hospital.
Why was Culver there? What did Queenie and Evan's quarrel have to do with him?
She made a guess, "Was he helping me to take revenge on them?"
Then, she doubted herself. How could it be? He hated her so much for what happened last time. How could he do that for her sake?
In the end, she came to a conclusion that it had to be a coincidence.
She put her phone down and took a rest.
In the next few days, she did not go to the hospital.
Nonetheless, she got a lot of information from Emma. Queenie was locked away by Evan, who claimed that the Zac family owed him an explanation. The Zac family, on the other hand, had their own strategy
too.
After learning that their plan to form a marriage between Queenie and Culver had fallen through, and that their family's name had been besmirched, they called the police directly without caring about Queenie
at all.
At last, Evan was taken away by the police to assist in the investigation whereas Queenie was punished as well. After that, the Zac Family speedily sent her abroad.
Soon, the matter came to an end.
Emma let out a sigh. "Well, the wealthy families are really full of underhanded tactics!"
A few seconds later, she realized that Naomi also came from a rich family. So, she hurriedly explained.
So, she hurriedly explained, "I'm not talking about you. Your family is an exception."
Naomi ignored her as she was busy with the company's affairs. In regards to the design competition, the works of their company had been submitted, and their company's ranking was quite high at the moment Naomi told Emma, "There should be no doubt that Sharon will win the award this time. You can go with her on the day of the recording."
Emma asked, "Are you not going? Our company has been in Greene City for almost a year. We're finally on the right track. Don't you want to go and have a look?"
Naomi shook her head, "I'm not going. I'll wait for good news from you in the company."
Emma nodded, "Alright. Then, let's celebrate together when we come back!"
