Playing Cute In Front Of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 142 

Simon stopped teasing him.

"Alright, say it.Why are you looking for me? Is there something important you want to say that can't be said over the phone?"

Sean had been torn whether or not he should inform Simon about the phony vase ever since he discovered it.

Sean was well aware of Simon's fondness for the vase.

If he knew it was fake, things would be a lot more difficult.

But if it were an authentic antique vase, Simon and Beatrice would be dissatisfied with what Katherine did, not to mention Sean's predisposition towards her.

If it weren't Katherine, Sean would not care at all.

Last night, Zack asked him to apologize to Katherine.

He could not allow Queenie to keep bullying others after she apologized to her.

Sean realized that he should tell the truth and so he drove there early in the morning after assessing the pros and cons.

"Simon, the vase that Katherine accidentally broke last time was fake." Sean finally said the words he went there for.

"Sean, I know your relationship with Mr.Colburn and the relationship between that Katherine and Zack, but you can't say these things against your conscience merely because of this!" Simon said with a cold, hard expression on his face.

Simon felt a little irritated with Katherine that day after he found out that she had removed 6,000 dollars as compensation.

‘'With 6,000 dollars to compensate, who was she looking down on?’' Simon gritted his teeth with this irritating question in his mind.

Simon's reaction wasn't a surprise for Sean at all.

He smiled apologetically, "I know how much you adore that vase, Simon! Zach told me to come over and remind you! That vase was a part of a set.Did you even try to find out where the other part of it was when you bought it before? It doesn't matter if you don't believe me.But for this matter, if we investigate, we have nothing to lose"

Beatrice had had enough that she raised her hand to strike Sean.

"You silly boy, don't you know that your uncle likes that vase so much? He looked for so many people to identify that vase! They all confirmed it is not fake! And then Katherine even sent someone to deliver to our door 6,000 dollars to insult us! You are saying this now because you are still helping her!"

Sean cried foul and said, "Don't be hasty, Beatrice! Why do you believe I am saying this for Katherine? Besides, if I went against my conscience, I wouldn't have hesitated that night to tell you that Queenie pushed Miss Wilson! That vase is fake! I just heard that Queenie even made a bet with Katherine.I was afraid that things would get far worse later! It will not be a waste of time to appraise it, to know whether it is real or not! In any case, the vase was already shattered!"

"Why didn't you say anything that that night? Right now, I think that it is best if you keep silent today as well!"

Beatrice was enraged as well when she remembered what had happened that night.

Sean was her nephew, after all.

Nothing would have happened if he kept his mouth shut.

Why did he have to point at Queenie regarding this matter? Simon appeared to be more composed than Beatrice.

Sean believed he did nothing wrong that night.

Simon grimaced and extended his hand to stop Beatrice from almost hitting Sean.

"Alright, Sean was correct in his assessment.The vase could be real or fake.After an appraisal, we will know"

Queenie instantly noticed the noise in the yard as soon as she arrived.

With her bag in her hand, she asked, "Mom, Dad, Sean, what are you talking about?"

Sean gave Queenie a sidelong glance.

"Katherine broke a fake vase that day.Put a stop to the wager between you and Katherine."

Sean had already said what he needed to say.

He didn't want to be chastised by Beatrice, so he got back to the car and departed.

Queenie's face was flushed.

"Dad, was Sean telling the truth?"

Simon turned to look at Beatrice and noticed her stern behavior.

"Whether it's real or fake, who told you to go to Miss Wilson?"

Queenie was suddenly filled with remorse.

"I just met her while eating with Chloe, Dad.She purposely provoked me, and I wasn't able to control myself..."

"Well, let's stop this nonsense! Why are you berating Queenie?"

Beatrice asked, defending her daughter and trying to smoothen things down.

"What did you and Katherine bet on, Queenie?"

Beatrice looked at her daughter seriously and waited for her answer.

Sean's allegations that the vase was fake worried Queenie, who confessed as soon as Beatrice asked and showed them a video containing the answers to their questions.

Simon was so furious with what he saw that his face turned green.

"You! You are a complete moron! I'm no longer interested in whatever you do!"

Katherine's statements may have sounded harmless but what happened that night was anything but simple.

He was sure of it! He had to admit that he had underestimated Katherine and thought that she was naive, but now their problem was much worse because of Queenie's disobedience and childishness!
