After learning about the situation, Quinn simply nodded. She didn't feel anything special."Do you need someone to handle this?" It was clear that reporters would only spread rumors, which could tarnish her reputation."No need to interfere. Let it continue to circulate." It was about time for everyone to be reminded of what happened five years ago and for Lisa to receive an apology.Quinn didn't want Lisa to know about this. Lisa was a kind woman who never wanted to hurt anyone.But Quinn was different. She wanted those who had harmed them to pay the price, regardless of who they were.However, Lisa found out anyway. She couldn't bear the thought of anyone tarnishing Quinn's name.To her, Quinn was the sweetest and best girl in the world. How could she let others slander her like this?Lisa went out to meet Winona.She actually hadn't been out much since returning. She wasn't fond of leaving the house.The sunlight outside was bright, which made it hard for her to open her ey
"What's Maurice even worth? What makes you think I'm still hung up on him? Being blind once was enough. I'm not so pathetic as to be failed by the same man twice," Lisa said.Jillian continued snapping photos. In the frame, Lisa looked fierce and assertive, while Winona was on her knees, looking pitiful.The scene was a dramatic spectacle.Netizens would surely feel sympathy for an elderly woman begging on the ground."Forgiveness is a virtue, Lisa. Is it really necessary to go this far?""Are you done talking, Grandma?"Just then, Quinn and Xavier arrived. Quinn had been worried ever since Lisa decided to face Jillian alone.She was concerned that the stress might be too much for her, given that she hadn't fully recovered yet. But seeing Lisa's determined stance, Quinn felt more at ease."Quinny, no matter what, he's still your dad. Are you really going to push him to the brink?""Push him to the brink? I haven't pushed him. He tried to kill me and my mom and take over my mom
The public outcry was immediate and intense.Just a short while ago, the netizens were apologizing to Quinn. But now, she was portrayed as a ruthless capitalist.It was truly shocking to see someone act so cold-heartedly toward an elderly person."Get out of Jipsfort, Quinn Jowell! We don't want someone so heartless here.""Bitch! I usually don't like to use harsh language, but today I can't hold back. That's her own grandmother! Even if the old lady did something wrong, she's still her grandmother! How could she treat her like that? Doesn't she have a conscience?""That's her mother next to her, right? The woman who betrayed her husband five years ago. Seeing her like this now is so satisfying! To all the cheating women out there, take note! Karma will always get you.""Why talk so much? Is there anyone out there who wants to teach this bitch a lesson? If so, count me in.""Are you serious? Are you really going to teach her a lesson? Alright, let's all wait and see. Hopefully,
Seeing Xavier come out alone, Ian felt sympathy for him."Xav, this is what it's like when you fall for a strong woman. She seems to handle everything on her own. I guess you're not used to it."Xavier actually hoped that Quinn might depend on him. But Quinn had always treated their relationship as a fleeting romance. She never took it seriously."I get it. Shut up."Nadia shook her head at the scene. "Give Quinny some time, Xavier. She just doesn't believe in love right now. But trust me, her feelings for you are different."Even when Quinn was dating Simon, they had never been as close as Quinn and Xavier were."I know.""Hang in there. I'm rooting for you."Lisa knew this scandal would make waves. She wanted to go online, but Quinn wouldn't give her the phone."You don't need to worry about anything, Mom. Just focus on resting and leave the rest to me." Quinn leaned on Lisa's shoulder."I'm feeling much better now, Quinny. I can face the past." She accepted the fact that s
Simon nodded."Fine. You'll never listen to whatever I say anyway. You've always been stubborn. If it weren't for that, how could Dad have left?""Simon Xandor!"Shania was infuriated. Baxter's departure had always been a sore spot for her. She had never wanted to bring it up, but now, Simon was making such a remark."I'm being serious, Mom. You need to change your temper. If things keep going like this, I'm afraid our family won't last. Alright, I have an experiment to conduct. I won't be home tonight."With that, Simon turned and walked out.Shania's anger only grew."Go on. Just leave! You all act like you can't stand being at home, as if there are ghosts here! Your dad was like this, and now you are too. What spell did Lisa and Quinn cast on you?"Why did everyone have to hurt her so much for the sake of Lisa and Quinn? Hadn't she already sacrificed enough?Just then, Baxter, who had been missing for five years, returned.Upon arriving, he saw Shania in this state.Shani
However, Quinn wouldn't let Baxter see Lisa.As Quinn left the café, she ran into Jacob, who was pleasantly surprised to see her. "Ms. Jowell, are you here having coffee with friends?"Quinn shook her head."I see. I still owe you a meal for the help you gave me last time. Since it's lunchtime, would you honor me with a meal?""Sorry, I have other matters to attend to.""Then we'll have to do it another time."Jacob genuinely admired Quinn and hoped she would join the Criminal Investigation Department. Even if she couldn't officially join, being a consultant and helping out when needed would be beneficial.With her around, solving cases would be a breeze.After leaving the café, Quinn took a cab. Just as she got in, Luna's call came through."Do you have time now, Ms. Jowell? Because of the situation online, the shareholders have been calling non-stop, and some have even come to the company directly. Can you…?"Luna fully trusted Quinn, but her belief alone wasn't enough. If
Quinn said, "I think you should just sell it to me directly.""Are you sure?" one of the shareholders asked."Yeah.""Well, I'm not selling to you."Quinn found the situation amusing.Shania still hadn't learned her lesson and was trying to take over Four Seasons Incorporated. She was just too greedy."Then let's see if Xandor Group has the spare cash to buy the stocks you're holding," Quinn said indifferently.The shareholders didn't bother to pay Quinn any attention.Xandor Group had been frequently in the news recently, but regardless, their strength was top-notch. They definitely had the funds to back up their claims.The shareholders left without another word."Anyone else? If you want to sell your stocks, you can either sell to me or choose to sell to Xandor Group. However, as I said before, Xandor Group may not necessarily have the cash for you."The remaining shareholders looked at each other. They were unsure of what to decide. Quinn seemed incredibly confident. May
Archie still felt uneasy."To be honest, we're in the middle of a major deal with Patterson Group, so funds are a bit tight right now. But don't worry. This amount is nothing we can't handle. When the time is right, I can introduce you to the Pattersons," Shania said enticingly.Archie's interest was piqued. If he could secure a partnership with the Pattersons, it would be like winning the lottery. Who wouldn't want that?"Alright then, I'll give you one week, Ms. Xandor."Meanwhile, Shania's aggressive purchase of Four Seasons Incorporated stocks was stirring up discontent among the shareholders within Xandor Group.Many of them felt she was betting too much on a risky venture, especially given Quinn's formidable skills. It was clear that Shania had locked horns with her.A few shareholders voiced their concerns, but Shania flew into a rage. "Xandor Group belongs to the Xandor family! I make the decisions here, not you!"No matter what the others said, Shania was determined. Sh
