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
Mandy's image took a serious hit.Reporters rushed to the hospital where she was hospitalized. 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. That only further added credibility to the whistleblower's claims."I always thought you were about the fray. I thought you were a true angel who descended from the heavens. It turns out that you have been hiding your true face so well. "You've always acted innocent even with your shit morals. I'm disappointed. I reckon I don't need to explain myself for turning from a fan to a hater.""I cried fo
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. "I won't be able to be by your side for much longer. My relationship with Romelius has e
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
A throng of people surrounded Mandy's private room in the hospital. Various distressful screams emanated from the inside. "Ms. Mandy, could you please come down? We can talk about these issues.""That's right, Ms. Mandy. It's quite chilly outside. You should quickly come down. Exposing yourself to the cold is not advisable, especially considering your current state of health."Mandy's attending physician and nurses were all trying to persuade her.Romelius quickly pushed his way through the crowd. The scene before him nearly made him faint.Mandy was sitting unsteadily on the window ledge of her room that lacked shielding, dressed in a thin hospital gown.The wind was so forceful that it felt as though it could sweep her off the ledge at any given moment.This was the 23rd floor. If Mandy were to fall, she would likely be killed instantly."Mandy, why are you sitting there? Come down quickly."Upon hearing Romelius' voice, Mandy's distant gaze shifted away from the outside wo
As soon as Lana walked in, she saw Mandy being tightly held by Romelius. Her legs suddenly gave way, and she slid to the floor.She was still gasping for breath. Her temples were drenched in sweat. She sighed in relief and said, "I … I'm so glad I made it in time!""Lana …" Mandy's heart raced as she finally saw her. She was so overwhelmed with emotions that she could barely speak. She quickly left Romelius' embrace, crawled over to Lana, and hugged her tightly.Lana didn't speak either. She hugged Mandy tightly with all her might.Romelius, belatedly realizing what had happened, quickly crawled over and tightly embraced the mother-daughter duo.At that moment, the family of three were finally reunited.After the initial burst of excitement, Lana was the first to regain her composure."Mom, Dad, now that we're finally reunited, we must stick together to brave through this challenging period."Mandy and Romelius were momentarily stunned. They didn't expect Lana to be so direct.
