Baxter and Shania were brought to their knees. Their former haughtiness was completely extinguished.Araminta looked on, and her face was burning with shame. She had once kneeled before her too, but Quinn was unforgiving, and no amount of pleading would change her heart."It was Mrs. Xandor who made me do it. I was just misled by her like everyone else."Araminta still wouldn't admit that it was her fault, even at that moment. There was no way she could! If she did, her life would be ruined!A chorus of jeers swept through the scene."How could you be so cruel to another woman, Araminta? Aren't women supposed to support each other, not tear each other down? What you've done is utterly disgraceful.""Given Ms. Gatrell's character, if Maurice had just been honest and said he didn't love her anymore, she would have definitely divorced him. Yet, instead of doing that, he took this cowardly approach to force her hand. He's the worst of them all!""They're both terrible people. Their
"I…" Maurice trailed off. He still wanted to defend himself. Yet, in the face of such overwhelming evidence, there was little he could say in his defense."I simply made a mistake that any man might make. It was Araminta who led me astray."Maurice blamed Araminta for everything and then revealed all the terrible things she had done to Quinn and Lisa.Araminta stared at him in disbelief. How could he do this to her? They were still husband and wife, after all. And yet, he was blaming her for everything."What do you mean by that, Maurice? How dare you shift all the blame onto me? Have you no shame?""Aren't you the one who seduced me? You're just jealous of Lisa for her looks and her business acumen. I was only planning to divorce her, but you were the one who wanted to drive her crazy. Didn't you even hire someone to kill Quinn?"They were supposed to share an unbreakable bond as a married couple, yet when disaster struck, their vows were forgotten. Maurice and Araminta were qui
"That pair of adulterers deserve no mercy! They are rotten to the core.""If it weren't for these adulterers, I believe Four Seasons Incorporated could have achieved even greater heights by now. I'm truly sorry, Ms. Gatrell!"At that moment, a sea of apologies filled the livestream comment section.Lorraine had been intently watching the live stream. At first, she didn't dare to let Lisa know about the livestream. Yet, after witnessing the flood of apologies, she eventually called Lisa over with tears in her eyes.Upon seeing the countless apologies in the comment section, Lisa couldn't help but smile."Quinny is truly incredible, Lisa! You won't have to worry about people talking behind your back anymore," Lorraine exclaimed.At this point, apologies meant nothing in this situation. Nevertheless, at least those people were aware of how wonderful Lisa truly was. Although she had a smile on her face, Lisa's teary eyes betrayed her emotions. Quinn had truly gone above and beyond
Upon hearing that, Araminta went ballistic.She had slipped a fruit knife in her bag earlier. At that moment, she suddenly lunged at Quinn with the knife.All the onlookers were stunned. It seemed like she had completely gone mad. She dared to attack someone in broad daylight!Xavier immediately pulled Quinn into his arms and wanted to kick Araminta away.Yet, before Xavier could do that, Maurice blocked Araminta's attack. As a result, the fruit knife embedded itself in his chest. His shirt was soaked in blood.Araminta was dumbfounded. She did not understand why Maurice would suddenly take the blow for Quinn. "You…"Quinn, on the other hand, couldn't help but furrow her brow and wonder what Maurice was playing at. He actually dared to pull such a stunt while she was condemning him."We were the ones at fault five years ago, Araminta. I realized now that I shouldn't have been swayed by you. Please don't hurt Quinny—she's still so young," Maurice said, then collapsed to the groun
Xandor Group was on the verge of bankruptcy, and its employees were left in a state of panic. They had a great job at a great company. Yet, due to Shania's foolish decision to go head-to-head with Quinn, they were about to lose their livelihood. They found it hard to come to terms with the outcome.As a result, a crowd of anxious employees gathered outside the Four Seasons Incorporated building. They couldn't afford to lose their jobs. They still had mortgages and car payments to make, parents to take care of, and kids to put through school. They needed those jobs.They had gathered outside Four Seasons Incorporated with banners. They were demanding answers from Quinn. Their cars had completely blocked the company’s entrance. This was causing utter chaos at the scene.It didn't matter who it was, but they had made it clear that an explanation had to be given today—otherwise, they wouldn't back down.On that day, Quinn happened to be at Four Seasons Incorporated. Upon seeing the com
"Are you looking to resolve this issue or simply here to cause a scene? If you want to resolve it, then be quiet," Quinn said.She didn't owe them anything. It was Shania who caused all these troubles, after all. She had only agreed to help out of the kindness of her heart. If she had refused, there was nothing they could have done about it either.As soon as Quinn spoke up, everyone in the crowd fell silent and then turned to her."We're at our wit's end, Ms. Jowell! We can't afford to lose our jobs. We're just ordinary people trying to make ends meet. Please help us out.""Exactly, Ms. Jowell! If Xandor Group actually goes under, what are we supposed to do? Where else would we seek employment?"It wasn't just one or two people who were affected by Xandor Group. There were thousands of employees!"Please help us, Ms. Jowell. We're really desperate here. We really can't afford to lose our livelihoods.""I get that you're in a tight spot, but gathering here won't resolve anything
As soon as they arrived at the restaurant, Quinn received a call from Simon.Upon seeing that it was Simon calling, Quinn chose to ignore it. Yet, he kept calling, so she had no choice but to answer it.As soon as Quinn answered the phone, Xavier's expression turned grim. He wished Simon would just disappear at that moment. It was so annoying how he always interrupted their time together."Can we meet up, Quinny? I've got something to discuss with you regarding Xandor Group."He knew full well she didn't want to see him, but he went ahead and asked anyway because he wanted to discuss the escalating Xandor Group situation."I only have one thing to say about Xandor Group, Simon. It'll be acquired within three days," Quinn stated bluntly. Upon hearing that, Xavier couldn't help but laugh. He was suddenly thankful that he was on her side and not against her. Quinn was always direct and ruthless, no matter who she was dealing with.As soon as she noticed him laughing, Quinn rolled
Yet, nowadays, Gwendolyn was constantly keeping herself busy. She would spend most of her days tending the garden."Have you considered bringing Mrs. Gatrell Senior and Ms. Gatrell to Dudore—"Quinn shook her head and said, "No."Despite everything that happened five years ago, Lisa still loved Jipsfort. She had always wanted to return to Jipsfort.Additionally, the air quality was superior here compared to Dudore, making it a more suitable environment for Lisa.Above all, Jipsfort was a much more peaceful place compared to Dudore.Xavier merely hummed in response and mused. Given their reluctance to move to Dudore, he started to consider the possibility of redirecting his career to Jipsfort. After all, he would never want her to feel uneasy."What are you thinking about?" Quinn asked, wondering if he was hoping that she would agree to go to Dudore with him.Given that Lightcloud Corporation was headquartered in Dudore and was the city's most prominent conglomerate, it was impo
