Chapter 8 Meeting Joseph
- Because of Hayden, Nicole had dug up pretty much everything about the Mann Family long ago. Robert Mann, Joseph's father, was an old man in his 60s. After his wife's death two years ago, he began fooling around with numerous women, gaining even more notoriety than his son. Are they making me serve the father after I've served his son? What a real piece of work they are! she thought. She didn't feel like arguing with Queenie and William any longer; she just wanted to collect her mother's stuff and leave. "I don't need that. Just give me my mom's stuff!"
- Queenie's sarcastic voice rang as soon as Nicole finished her sentence. "Stop pretending already, Nicole! You were willing to sleep with a stranger for 200,000 five years ago. Now that you'll be enjoying an inexhaustible fortune as long as you marry into the Mann Family, how could you possibly turn it down?!"
- Queenie knew that Colton only acknowledged her as his future wife because "she" had saved him five years ago, but Nicole was the one who had actually saved him. I'll never let anyone ruin my present life! As long as Nicole gets married to Robert, even if Colton learns about the truth in the future, he wouldn't want Nicole anymore!
