Lana's decisive and powerful movements not only shocked Joyce, whom she sent flying but also surprised Romelius and Mandy.

Everyone was aware that Lana's kick was something that had to be honed through practice. So, she was probably a skilled fighter.

Lana looked slender. So, no one really expected her to be so strong.

Joyce was kicked to the wall, and then she fell heavily onto the ground. She was in so much pain she couldn't even move. She only managed to get up after lying still on the ground for a while.

"How … dare you attack me?"

Lana was amused. Joyce was indeed Rosa's mother. They said the exact same thing after being beaten.

"It's only fair. If you want to hit someone, expect to get hit back."

Then, Lana's stern gaze fell on Romelius. "What about you? You just watched as she was hitting someone?"

Romelius felt wronged. "I didn't just stand by and watch. I tried to stop her but failed."

Lana sneered. "Got it. You're a weakling."

He can't even restrain a woman. Th

    If what happened between Romelius and Mandy was exposed to the public, it would tear down the reputation she built over the years. Not only that, it would also impact Romelius' career adversely. That would send the Quinn Family into a spiral. If that happened, it wouldn't just be Romelius' problem. He never thought Joyce could be so heartless that she would try to bring the entire Quinn Family to ruin for her greed. Romelius was at a loss for words from his anger. He took a while to regain his composure. Then, he said, "You wouldn't dare!"Joyce had already tidied up her clothing and bag. She adjusted the straps of her branded bag and said, "You left me no choice. It's an eye for an eye. If anything happens to the Quinn family, it would be your fault." Joyce strutted out of the room with her nose in the air. Before leaving, she stopped in her tracks. With her back facing Romelius, she said, "I'll give you one day to reconsider. If you do not undo the asset transfer by

    Nicholas was puzzled. "Your medical skills are already very proficient. If there's a condition that even you can't deal with, our mentor probably won't make much of a difference.""Even so, I want to give it a try. It's possible that …"Nicholas smiled bitterly. He knew what kind of person Lana was. So, he didn't try to talk her out of it. He said, "Our mentor loves to travel. I haven't been able to contact him for two years." "What? How can you not get in touch with him for two whole years?" Nicholas' answer made Lana anxious. Nicholas raised his hands and explained, "Hey, I didn't say that. I said I hadn't been able to contact him. I'm not you. You just don't want to contact him."Although Nicholas took a jab at her, Lana didn't retort. "Can you find a way to get in touch with him? I really need to find him soon."Lana was afraid that Mandy didn't have much longer to live. "I can give it a try. But even if I manage to contact him, there's no guarantee that he would be

    Devon's bodyguards didn't dare to defy Rosa since she was so adamant about beating the people up. They knew how much the President doted on his niece, after all. One of the bodyguards picked up a chair and was about to throw it at the counter. Lana abruptly stated, "Do it. Thrash the place. I'll film everything."A bodyguard tried to snatch Lana's phone from her when he saw that she was about to film them. However, Lana was able to evade his grasp with ease. The bodyguards saw that and realized that Lana was a skilled fighter. Thus, they became vigilant. "Mr. President's bodyguards causing a scene in public, and destroying public property. I bet this headline would change everyone's view of the President."All the bodyguards were stunned by Lana's words. They almost destroyed their own careers because of Rosa. While it was true that they were responsible for keeping the President safe, they had no right to lay a hand on other people's private property. If Lana did film it

    It was night, and Romelius washed a bowl of strawberries for Mandy."Here, your favorite strawberries." Mandy looked at them and didn't take any. "Set it aside. Let Lana have them when she visits.""Even if you want to leave them for Lana, you can still eat some."Mandy shook her head and said, "It's different. Shouldn't parents leave the best for their child?"They had already spent so much time apart from Lana. Mandy wanted Lana to have the best she could offer in her final days. Even if Lana never learned that she was Lana's biological mother. Romelius wanted to say more, but his phone rang, so he picked up. "Romelius, you better release Rosa immediately. Otherwise, I will expose everything Mandy has done over the years to reporters. The reputation of the Quinns will be ruined! " Joyce's words didn't make any sense to Romelius. He replied impatiently, "What's wrong with you, Joyce? What happened to Rosa?""Rosa …" Joyce broke down into tears before she could say anythin

    "There's no need for that!" Lana indirectly rejected Mandy's suggestion. She added, "There are so many delicious foods on earth. I want to try more."However, Mandy refused to give up just yet. "You can always enjoy other foods, but we should buy the strawberry farm first. Wouldn't it be nice if you could have the strawberries anytime you want?"Lana really didn't want a strawberry farm. It wasn't like she could have fruits only in place of her meals. Besides, Mandy being overly enthusiastic about it seemed somewhat strange. Lana was even more reluctant to agree to it because of that.She couldn't help reminding Mandy, "Dy, don't say that I didn't remind you. You have transferred all the assets under your name to me. You're broke. Please stop thinking about the strawberry farm."Mandy was left tongue-tied. How in the world did she forget about that? Now that things had come to this point, she had no choice but to give up on buying Lana the strawberry farm.The two of them co

They hoped to capture the scene described by the whistleblower who claimed Mandy's brother had abandoned everything to be by her side after she fell ill.However, due to the private hospital's excellent confidentiality policies, the reporters had to leave empty-handed.At dawn, reporters managed to capture Romelius' wife, Joyce, hastily heading to the police station. They discovered that Romelius and Joyce's only daughter was currently in custody for alleged involvement in a disturbance.

    In a dimly lit small space inside the chapel, smoke billows. It was eerie and terrifying, reminiscent of hell. Priscilla knelt on the mat, praying with her expensive rosary. It was a daily ritual she had followed for years. Joyce knelt silently beside her and began to recite along.After finishing the prayer, Priscilla, with Joyce's support, stood up. Then, they both sat in the chapel's small lounge. "Joyce, why didn't Rosa come today?"Normally, Rosa is very punctual and arrives at the chapel at this time every day. But today, Priscilla didn't see her. Thus, she started looking for Rosa.When Priscilla brought up Rosa, Joyce's tears welled up and fell like raindrops, landing on the gray floor tiles. Priscilla felt sympathy for her. She became worried and asked, "Joyce, what's wrong? Why are you crying all of a sudden?""Grandma!" Joyce said with a hint of sadness, resting on Priscilla.

    In the interrogation room, Rosa still refused to cooperate with the investigation.She was seated in the suspect's chair, her arms tightly crossed. Her eyes reflected both contempt and disgust. "I advise you to stop the interrogation. It would be in your best interest to release me now, or you'll definitely come to regret it. "You all are just a bunch of small fry. And you all think you can challenge me? I suggest you save your words."Do you even know who I am? I am the president's beloved niece! The future of the Quinn family lies in my hands. Should you ever cross paths with me in the future, I will show no mercy!"For over 24 hours, Rosa had been in custody. Her demeanor remained haughty and arrogant as she blatantly disregarded legal protocols. She also repeatedly invoked her familial connection to the president to assert her authority.The police officers wanted to interrogate her, but she remained uncooperative. At the slightest provocation, she would unleash a stream

Hector's attitude toward Liam was still unfavorable, to the extent that he didn't even want to see him.Lana suddenly said, "Something very serious actually happened today."Following that, she placed Leonardo down and showed everyone the wound on his neck.A ring of red marks surrounded Leonardo's delicate neck. In some places, the marks were so swollen that it looked like a tire had been wrapped around his neck. It was a shocking sight to behold.Hector, Violet, Mandy, and Romelius were immediately enraged."What happened to Leo?""What happened to his neck? It could have been fatal if it was any worse.""Who was responsible for watching Leo today?

"However, even after my death, I'll haunt you for the rest of your life!"As they listened to her absurd threat, Lana and the Traffic Light Trio burst into laughter."If ghosts were real, then Emilia would be the first to look for you."When her deceased sister was mentioned, Cynthia's smile remained unchanged. "That fool probably never knew it was me who betrayed her until her death."Considering the situation, Cynthia didn't believe she could leave the Garrison Villa tonight."What exactly do you gain by single-handedly destroying the Cooper family?"Lana was still very confused by Cynthia's actions.After all, Emilia and Cynthia were twins and had the same blood coursing through their veins.

    On the evening of the banquet, the Garrison Villa was bustling with distinguished guests.Initially, everyone's attention was on the precious great-grandson of the Garrison and Kane family. With his confident and lively demeanor, the chubby child was absolutely adorable. Everyone was naturally curious about who the child might have chosen as his stepmother.It should be noted that the Garrison and Kane family only had one great-grandson. His future was destined to be extraordinary. As long as one could control the child, it was much more worthwhile than dealing with those individuals from the two affluent families.After all, the elders from the two families were very attentive and doting toward this child. Surprisingly, Liam, who was said to have been away from home for a long time, had returned. During the reception of guests, he unexpectedly had a smile on his face.The ladies who had come tonight, vying for the position of Liam's wife, became even more excited.Liam typi

    On the night before the banquet, Romelius and Mandy finally brought Leonardo back.Lana was overjoyed, and she immediately went to the bungalow where they were staying.At that time, Leonardo had just returned home and was playing with toys on the living room floor."Leo, you're back! Did you miss Mommy? Mommy missed you so much!"Lana ran toward Leonardo, talking to him while reaching out to hug him. In a flash, Leonardo suddenly ran toward Romelius while holding a toy car.After that, he kept hiding in his arms, refusing to come out. He would occasionally peek out from the gaps to glance at Lana.His actions clearly showed that he refused to accept Lana.Lana's enthusiasm was dampened, and her outstretched arms awkwardly remained in midair. She looked at Romelius and then at Mandy as if waiting for them to persuade Leonardo. However, these two remained silent and only greeted Lana in a casual manner."Oh, Lana, you've come?" Mandy said while presenting her with a basket o

All of them were busy scurrying around and helping Hector deliver the invitations.In addition to people who had business dealings with the Garrison family, the invitations were naturally sent to people who were familiar with Lana in the past. Therefore, as soon as the Traffic Light Trio received the invitation, they didn't even go to work and immediately ran to Liam's office—intending to get an explanation from him.At that time, Liam had just finished a phone call from overseas and was deep in thought when the office door was suddenly kicked open.Lincoln stood at the door, looking

    Liam sensed a challenging undertone in Lana's stare. After all this time, had they truly become adversaries?Releasing Lana abruptly, Violet gently patted her arm, her eyes filled with profound hurt."You're here, alive and well. Why did you leave us in the shadows? Even if you chose not to contact anyone else, you should've considered reaching out to me. Do you have any idea how much I missed you?"Over the years, Violet had been grappling with a deep sense of loss.Though it remained an unspoken sentiment among them, Violet was aware of the underlying blame directed toward Liam for what was believed to be Lana's demise.Had Liam been more emotionally available, their relationship wouldn't have crumbled.

"Leo, you should be calling me 'Mommy'!" she gently corrected him.Leonardo hesitated momentarily before redirecting his attention to Liam.Even though Liam hadn't exchanged a single word with Lana, he spoke up when Leo glanced his way, firmly stating, "Feel free to do as you wish.
