A black car was parked at the entrance of the apartment compound.
James got into the car.
The car sped along the road and stopped at a hotel.
James entered the hotel and arrived at a luxurious presidential suite.
He knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened. Queenie stood before him.
James went in.
Queenie looked around and shut the door.
"Dad, have you given Natalie the drugs I gave you?" Queenie stared at James.
There was a look of panic in James's eyes.
Queenie was anxious.
She took a step forward. "Dad, you didn't give it to Natalie, did you?" James' hands trembled. "Queenie, let's just forget about it." "Forget it?" Queenie suddenly raised her voice. "Are you my father or not?!" James' hands trembled harder.
Queenie seemed to have gone a little mad. "Didn't I tell you how I was treated? When I was abroad, I was gang- r*ped by so many men. It was all because of Natalie. She did this to me, yet you still feel reluctant to make a move. Are you still my father?" James's eyes becdamp.
He really couldn't bear to do it...
"Queenie, Natalie won't do this to you in the future. She will never treat you like this again. I beg you, please just let Natalie go." Hearing James pleading on behalf of Natalie, Queenie becmore agitated.
"What are you thinking? You wantto let her go? Then why didn't she letgo back then?" James was trembling violently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThat night, he saw Queenie for the first time.
She told him about all the inhumane treatment that she'd suffered.
With gritted teeth, Queenie told him that it was all because of Natalie.
She wanted to get revenge on Natalie.
James knew what Natalie and Queenie's personalities were like.
If Natalie had really treated Queenie like that, Queenie must have done something wrong.
But even so, Queenie was his biological daughter.
When he found out how much pain and suffering Queenie had gone through, it was impossible for James not to hate Natalie, even a little bit. However, that trace of hatred dissipated completely when he saw Natalie's tears and panic that morning.
How could he do what Queenie asked him to? She had asked him to poison Natalie.
But James did not do that.
Queenie called James over every night to repeatedly tell him about the pain she had suffered, so that he could be ruthless enough to carry out the plan. However, James still lacked the heart to do it.
"Queenie, I'll get Natalie to apologize to you. I'll get her to kneel down and apologize to you, so you don't need to kill her," James said to Queenie in a choked voice. Queenie was about to lose it.
She glared at James. Search The FindNøvelWebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
She had not expected that she would have such an idiotic father.
She'd been through such hardships, but he was still trying to plead for Natalie.
She had been sure that after James knew what she had been through, he would kill Natalie for her.
But now...
There was a flash of hatred in Queenie's eyes.
If she had known this would happen, she would not have told James that it was poison.
"Dad, are you really not going to poison Natalie?" Queenie asked.
James seemed to be in extrpain.
Although he did not speak a word, his attitude said it all.
Queenie took a deep breath.
If she could not poison Natalie, she still had a backup plan.
Not to mention, this plan of hers would make Natalie suffer more than poisoning her would, and she could even get revenge on Tobias.
It was a pity that this plan was too risky. If it was not executed well, she herself would be harmed.
That was why she had not carried out the plan.
But now, she suddenly wanted to.
Ever since James had expressed his reluctance to poison Natalie, Queenie's resentment towards Natalie had reached its peak. Who did she think she was? Natalie was only an illegitimate child, but she'd managed to climb up the social ladder, and even James was on her side! She had to make Natalie pay the most painful price.
After a while, Queenie calmed down.
She looked at James and said, "Dad, if you really don't want to poison Natalie, then so be it." James' breath hitched.
A moment later, he looked at Queenie incredulously. "Queenie, have you forgiven Natalie?" Queenie put on a fake smile. "Dad, I've given it sthought. What you've been tellingover the past few days is right. It's my fault that Natalie was forced to do something like that, and I shouldn't be blaming her for that." James felt relieved all of a sudden.
"Queenie, it's great that you can think that way. I can rest assured." Queenie smiled stiffly. "However, I've still been hurt so badly. Dad, I don't plan on taking her life anymore, but I still want her to apologise to me." James nodded immediately when he heard this. "Of course. I'll definitely get her to apologise to you." Queenie's eyes flashed with a trace of hatred. "Well then, let's leave it at that. You get Natalie to cand apologise to me, and then we can bury the hatchet." Queenie leaned into James' ear and whispered something into his ear.
In the president's office, Benjamin passed Tobias the latest proposal.

It was a proposal regarding the Children's Day celebration at all the shopping malls under YS Group. Now that all the planning was complete, Tobias' approval was the only thing left.
When Tobias saw the words "Children's Day", something flashed in his mind.
He looked up at Benjamin, and a strange light flashed in his eyes. Benjamin was taken aback.
Why...why was Mr. Whitlock looking at him like that? "Mr. Whitlock?" Benjamin asked tentatively. "What's the matter?"
"Tomorrow is Children's Day?" asked Tobias, sounding strange. Benjamin nodded and replied, "That's right." All of a sudden, the light in Tobias's eyes shone even brighter.
He signed on the proposal.
Benjamin was taken aback.
Tobias was a man who was extremely responsible when it calways to his work. He would carefully scrutinise each and every proposal that was submitted to him. Why had Tobias approved it without even looking this time? And looking at his expression, why did he seem so excited? Benjamin had no idea what was happening.
It was just Children's Day, wasn't it? Why was Tobias so happy? Tobias had finally thought of an excuse to meet Natalie.
Because tomorrow was Children's Day.
Since that was the case, he had a glaringly obvious excuse.
He could invite Natalie celebrate Children's Day with him and Hayden.
As he dialled Natalie's number, Tobias' breathing sped up a little.
It was the swith Natalie.
When she saw it was Tobias calling, she becshort of breath.
She hadn't been in contact with Tobias since the day that they'd found James.
She had not expected him to suddenly call her on this day.
Natalie took a deep breath and picked up the call.
