Chapter 1440
The other three greeters sorely wished their scarves had been crooked as well so that they could have
Nigel adjust theirs for them.
Queenie’s heart rate was soaring through the roof. This was her first time having a man arranging her
scarf for her so intimately right in public.
“Thank you, Mr. Manson,” she said politely once Nigel stepped back with a satisfied look.
He glanced at her. “Make sure you always look presentable.”
“Yes, Mr. Manson,” she promised at once.
Nigel finally left with the other men, and as soon as he was gone, everyone turned their gazes onto
Queenie. All the employees in the lobby had witnessed everything that took place, and she nearly
drowned in their looks of envy.
She cleared her throat awkwardly.
“It’s obvious that someone did it on purpose!” A harsh voice rang out all of a sudden.
Queenie looked across to see a pretty but mean-looking woman staring at her scornfully.
“I think everyone has misunderstood this. I didn’t do it on purpose,” Queenie quickly defended herself.
“Stooping to these tricks just as soon as you started the job, huh? I don’t think you’re here to work.
You’re here for Mr. Manson!”
“That’s right.”
For the sake of clearing things up, Queenie had no choice but to use the same cover story again.
“Please don’t get the wrong idea! I’m just his cousin.”
The greeters who had been clouded in jealousy just moments ago immediately gasped in shock.
“You’re Mr. Manson’s cousin?”
“Yeah, albeit a little distantly related, so please don’t misunderstand anything.” Queenie could tell that
all the unmarried women working in this hotel had a crush on Nigel. To avoid being the target of their
jealousy, she figured it would be best to lie and say she was his cousin.
Sure enough, her words wiped off the looks of intense jealousy in the eyes of the three female
employees who were glowering at her earlier. It explained why Nigel had personally adjusted her scarf
for her.
Naturally, such things spread like wildfire among the employees, and at the very least, Queenie no
longer had to suffer from similar misunderstandings.
At Silverstein Residence.
When Maggie woke up in the morning, she began to worry about her eldest daughter. There had been
a thunderstorm last night, and Queenie had run off just like that. I wonder if she got caught in
the rain.
