Chapter 1383 Don’t Be Shy Around Me
“Y-You’re Mr. Manson’s girlfriend?” Cecily inquired boldly. “Yes. That’s me. I was present when you last
delivered the clothes to his home. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness.” Queenie expressed her
gratitude.
Cecily couldn’t help but shudder. When she thought about how she had teased Queenie in the past,
Cecily became so anxious that she nearly passed out. “Don’t mention it, Miss Silverstein. I have to get
back to work.”
After making that statement, she quickly turned on her heels and headed to the hallway.
During their lunch at the hotel’s restaurant, Queenie informed Nigel about her father’s health, after
which he agreed to let her manage the company while her father took a break. “Although I have no
experience, I will try my best.”
“Any time you have a question, feel free to ask me. Don’t be shy and ask me right away.” Nigel was

Her anxiety hadn’t entirely subsided on the ride over, but she felt a lot more secure knowing that she
had his support. It seemed as if he would always be there for her, regardless of her challenges.
“Why would you be shy around me? I certainly won’t be around you.” He arched his brow. “W-What do
you mean?!” Queenie lowered her head bashfully.
Nigel gazed menacingly at her. “As you know well, I will soon turn twenty-eight, and a man my age has
the stamina of a beast. Consider that a friendly reminder.”
As soon as she heard that, her ears flushed. “So, don’t be shy around me, okay?” He smirked and
stopped making fun of her. Summoning her courage, Queenie bravely replied, “Got it. I’m not going to
be shy around you.”
The sight of her being provoked amused him. To Nigel, it was endearing when she could trust him and
cause him any trouble without feeling bad about it. It was the only way for him to gain any significance
in her life.
After the meal, Queenie decided to purchase some work attire at a nearby store. Since she was
expected to maintain a professional appearance, she could not wear dresses to work every day.
“Let’s go! I’ll come with you.”
“Don’t you have a meeting in the afternoon?” she queried while tossing her bag in his direction.
“Why? Could the meeting be more important than spending time with you?”
After hearing his words, Queenie almost melted into a puddle because Nigel was even sweeter than
the dessert she had just eaten. She submissively hugged his waist and replied, “Okay, then! Kindly
assist me in making a clothing selection that reflects your taste, Mr. Manson.”
When she touched his muscular and firm waist, she felt compelled to pinch it as if to verify that it was
buff. In addition, Nigel also appreciated the intimacy that she shared with him. As soon as they stepped
outside the restaurant, they were greeted by a group of hotel staff in uniform.
Queenie’s daring gestures suddenly halted, and she quickly withdrew her hand. At that moment, Nigel

“Good afternoon, Mr. Manson.” In unison, the group of people greeted him while concurrently having a
curious gaze on the woman in his arms. They speculated that she had to be his future wife!
“Good afternoon,” Nigel responded while directing her to the elevator.
While they were in the elevator, Queenie’s hand rested on his waist once more. She complimented him
as she raised her head, “Mr. Manson, you’ve been working out frequently.”
“Of course. I can’t disappoint my future wife, can I?” He stared intently at her.
Those were the words that he was speaking for her to hear. She nodded without the slightest sign of
being shy. “Well, I’m quite pleased.”
Nigel snorted as she drew into his embrace.
Queenie’s delicate face was pressed against his chest, and her lips had almost kissed him through his
