Chapter 186 Don’t Simply Take Anyone as Your Relatives

After leaving the Gardner Family’s residence, Hayden stayed in Nicole’s arms and with his soft voice, he called her, “Mom…”

Nicole stared at him with a stern face. “How can you just follow a stranger? You never know what people will do to you.” Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Hayden answered softly, “That won’t happen. She’s the mother of Mr. Handsome and my grandma. She treats me well.”

She was speechless by what he said. “Don’t simply take anyone as your relative,” she warned him while pinching his cheeks.

After hearing what she said, he felt wronged. He immediately looked at Colton with his arms spread out and said, “Mr. Handsome, carry me. Mom is always bullying me.”

Nicole couldn’t help but give him a slap on his backside upon seeing his mischievous manner. “Stop playing around.”

Earlier, she had felt so awkward before the Gardners all because Hayden simply addressed them as his family.

Colton was beside her all this time, so he heard everything that transpired between them. Suppressing his laughter, he said hoarsely, “My mom likes children. Furthermore, Hayden really looks like me when I was a child, so it’s inevitable for her to misunderstand the situation. Sorry for causing trouble for you.”

When she heard his sincere apology, Nicole quickly replied, “No, it’s not your fault. It’s also because of this child, who simply addresses people as his relatives, which has caused Mrs. Gardner to misunderstand.”

“I did not!” Hayden protested grudgingly. While pouting his small mouth, he continued, “That’s Grandma!”

Just when Nicole was about to say something, Colton, who was standing beside, laughed.

However, when he saw Nicole looking at him, he suppressed his laughter. Then, he turned to them with brows that seemingly curved into a smile as he said, “Perhaps this child is meant to meet my mom.”

Hearing that, Nicole did not say anything as she entered the car and went home.

Ever since Lydia returned from the restaurant, she didn’t have a good expression. Queenie felt worried when she saw Lydia’s expression, and with her lips trembling, she asked, “Mom, does Nicole really have the video recording?”

Sensing her daughter’s terror, Lydia immediately tried to conceal her worries shown in her expression and shook her head. “No.”

Queenie was relieved to hear this. As long as there is no video recording, it’s fine, she thought. The audio recording can’t prove that it was me anyway.

She continued, “That’s good, then. Why are you still pulling a long face, Mom?”

Gripping her fists, Lydia recounted what Nicole said in the restaurant earlier. Queenie’s face took on a ghastly expression when she heard what was said before she cried out, “What?! Nicole went to the Gardner Residence with Colton?!”

Lydia nodded with a solemn face. This was exactly what Nicole told her.

Queenie was shocked by the news that she felt dizzy and needed to support herself by holding on to the table. Her heart was pounding in pain and she could feel it.

She had thought that there was nothing between Nicole and Colton, but Nicole actually followed him back for dinner! Queenie’s face paled even more.

No. I cannot let Colton be led away by Nicole!

“Mom, it seems like we have to do something,” Queenie said after calming down.

Lydia frowned after hearing that. Both of them were on the cusp of trouble now, and if they were to do anything further, they might not get away with it. She hesitatingly said, “Queenie, why don’t we just forget about it? Nicole now has something unfavorable to us in her hands—”

“Mom.” Queenie interrupted before moving forward with her eyes dimmed and grabbing Lydia’s hands.

“We don’t need to do it ourselves. Do you remember Olivia Gardner?”

“Are you referring to the young lady of Gardner Family, who is now the daughter-in-law of the Schumacher Family?”

Benjamin had an elder sister, Olivia, who married a few years back the head of the Schumacher Family who was leading the Pinnacle Group. Even up until now, she still had a say in the Gardner Family.

“Yes. Mrs. Schumacher has zero tolerance against people with complicated family ties. We can try to make use of her!” Queenie said.

As long as she was able to make use of Nicole’s child, she wouldn’t have to worry about Nicole being accepted by the Gardners!
