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 flash, Madilyn snapped her head over and gaped at the man.
He was exceedingly shy when I 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. Nonetheless, his initially dark expression had eased significantly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt 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! I 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 blazed within her, but she dared not utter a single word further.
“Regardless of whether it was a misunderstanding, Mr. Sheffield, my purpose in coming here today is very simple—
to pick Mdm. Xander up. As for your subsequent arrangements, we'll talk about them at a later 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 glance, they had no choice but to accept the fact that the Queen family in Horington
was not an existence they could afford to offend.
Despite the vast distance between the two places, 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 her completely, Jonathan flashed 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 plan in place, not only driving a Rolls- Royce but also bringing a dozen bodyguards. He

Shortly after, Lorraine was brought out. The instant she spotted her daughter and Jonathan, she hurried over to
them.
“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, do come to the Queen residence for a visit. I'll definitely welcome you warmly!”
