    Chapter 2020 Could Not Afford To Offend


    “How dare you!”


    Right then, Norton was on the brink of losing all reason.


    However, he had always been a cunning person, so he ultimately suppressed his wrath upon seeing that Jonathan was not the


    least bit intimidated. Instead, the man remained calm and unruffled.


    Not in the mood to yak with him, Jonathan asserted bluntly, “Listen here, Mr. Sheffield. I''m Jonathan Queen from the Queen


    family in Horington, and I''m Madilyn''s current boyfriend! Other than me, Madilyn is never going to marry anyone else.”


    In a sh, Madilyn snapped her head over and gaped at the man.


    He was exceedingly shy when | was changing at noon, but right now, it''s as though he has turned into a different person


    altogether, with a strong sense of superiority emanating from him!


    Jonathan held her gaze, his eyes promptly brimming with tenderness and indulgence.


    “The Queen family?” Mildred was startled for a moment. In the next instant, she swung her gaze at her husband.


    Norton''s brows were knitted deeply together. Nheless, his initially dark expression had eased significantly.


    It went without saying that he knew of the Queen family in Horington.


    That''s the Farwell family''s core ally, possessing hundreds of billions in assets and having a hand in various industries! | never


    thought that Madilyn would have such a boyfriend! His power and background are more than ten times greater than the Cheever


    family. No wonder he acted all high and mighty earlier!


    If it were in the past, he would have immediately put on a different expression and changed his attitude toward the heir of the


    Queen family.


    At that moment, however, he simply could not get over his pride.


    “Perhaps all this was merely a misunderstanding, Mr. Queen.”


    At the end of the day, his voice became gentle and took on a milder tone.


    Great turmoil brewed within Mildred when she glimpsed the helplessness in her husband''s eyes and heard his sudden change of


    tone.


    So, the Queen family in Horington is far greater than the Cheever family? How could this b ‘tch born of Lorraine have such good


    luck?


    Unadulterated envy and resentment zed within her, but she dared not utter a single word further.


    “Regardless of whether it was a misunderstanding, Mr. Sheffield, my purpose ining here today is very simple—to pick Mdm.


    Xander up. As for your subsequent arrangements, we''ll talk about them at ater time!” Jonathan''s aura could seemingly be


    repressed, for he also calmed down slowly.


    However, his words were finally taken seriously by Norton and Mildred.


    After they had exchanged a nce, they had no choice but to ept the fact that the Queen family in Horington was not an


    existence they could afford to offend.


    Despite the vast distance between the two ces, the influence of the Queen family could still reach them, not to mention that of


    the Farwell family, who was even more powerful than the Queen family.


    “Don''t worry, Madilyn. Your mother is perfectly fine. I''ll go and call her down to meet you right away!” In the end, Norton could


    only relent with a nod.


    He whirled around and went into the mansion, leaving Mildred there at a loss.


    Ignoring herpletely, Jonathan shed Madilyn a reassuring smile.


    “Thank you, Jonathan!”


    In truth, it had never crossed Madilyn''s mind that her boyfriend would be able to help her find her mother so easily, and with such


    a show of authority at that.


    No wonder he had a backup n in ce, not only driving a Rolls- Royce but also bringing a dozen bodyguards. He was


    nning to try negotiating first before employing force!


    Shortly after, Lorraine was brought out. The instant she spotted her daughter and Jonathan, she hurried over to them.? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    “Jonathan, Maddy, did they do anything to you?” Having said that, she jerked her head around and shot daggers at Norton and


    Mildred.


    Both Norton and Mildred wore grim expressions on their faces as they were forced to stand idly by and watch everything unfold.


    Allowing Lorraine to go that day signified that their hope to be linked with the Cheever family through marriage would be


    completely shattered.


    In response, Jonathan shook his head. He asked in return, “Did they do anything to you, Mdm. Xander?”


    Madilyn hugged her mother and checked her over. It was not until she had ascertained that there were no injuries on Lorraine


    that she breathed a sigh of relief.


    “Mom, get into the car, quick! We''ll talk further on the way back.” Taking her hand, Madilyn climbed into the Rolls-Royce.


    Meanwhile, Jonathan unhurriedly turned back and said to Norton, “Thank you, Mr. Sheffield. If you were to go to Horington next


    time, doe to the Queen residence for a visit. I''ll definitely wee you warmly!”
