As there were countless rules and heavy security at the Quinn mansion, anyone who came to visit needed to have approval from a Quinn before they were allowed to enter. Then, a maid would bring them to where the person they were visiting lived. The guests weren't allowed to walk around the whole mansion, this was to avoid them snooping into other people's privacy.

Maureen was here to see Vanessa, who is living with Leonardo, so she had to get Leonardo's approval first before she can be allowed into the residence. However, Leonardo wasn't at home and Vanessa didn't have his contact information.

As Vanessa thought about it, she found it funny that they reside together and were in a relationship, but she didn't have her boyfriend's number.

On the other hand, Leonardo knew her contact information and her traceable past. While she knew nothing about him, he knew most things about her, which Vanessa felt was unfair.

    If she was strong, she wouldn't need to hide ever again! "Mum, I would like to learn how to manage our company. Would Dad be willing to teach me?"Though she has managed businesses before, she has never managed a business like this. Maureen was over the moon upon hearing that. "Of course he would! What we fear most is you not wanting to learn how to manage our company. Since you want to learn, I can even go back to the company and teach you the ropes myself." The smile on her face became unbridled and her eyes starred over like that galaxy. Vanessa stared at her glowing face, lost in thought. How could I have not seen this love? I will definitely do my best to live up to her expectations of me. After marrying into the Lawson family, Maureen left her father's corporation and joined the Lawson's to help Adrian.

    The Lawson corporation was not far from the Quinn Empire. It was a few minutes drive from one to the other and one would have to pass by the Quinn Empire to get to the Lawson corporation. When Maureen's car passed by the Quinn Empire, she brought to Vanessa's attention, "Nessa, do you see that building? That's the Quinn Empire, and the current president is still the Quinn boy. If you really wish to continue on the business route, you must be careful of the Quinn Empire schemes. They never stop and once you've fallen into his trap, all the decades of effort put into Lawson corporation would all be gone." Vanessa knew that not only did the Quinn Empire dominate the business industry in New Haven, they were an influential company in the entire country with great prestige. The office building she was staring at had over sixty eight floors, and was like a shiny gem. She thought that Leonardo must have it tough, having to manage such a huge workplace but then again.

"Alright, Thank you for keeping me in mind. Are you going to be home for lunch?" " Yes, it's my house. So I can go there whenever I want." " I never said you couldn't, it was just a simple question." " Which I answered simply." " Okay boss, it your house and I'm just living in it." " Exactly." Vanessa nearly choked on her saliva after hearing his response. I can't believe how childish he can be. " I might not be home for lunch. Is that okay with you?" " That's your business, it has nothing to do with me. You don't have to tell me your wherea

    Hatred for the culprit still filled Maureen's heart, even though they have searched, the culprit still roams free. This just shows that the person who swapped their daughter had aid. "I will do my best, mom." However Vanessa didn't tell her mother that with Khloe around, those young mistresses would never become her friends. They only plot against her with Khloe and watch as Vanessa fall into their trap. Then, they would humiliate her and destroy her reputation. The mother daughter pair took the elevator to the highest floor. "Mrs Lawson, Miss Vanessa." Adrian's secretary smiled and greeted the pair before leading them toward the president's office. "Vice president Lawson and president Lawson are inside. Would you and Miss Vanessa mind waiting?" The secretary asked while walking. "Or I could bring you and miss Vanessa to the visitors lounge instead to have some tea while you wait?" "There's no need for that. We are here to find the president." Maureen then mocked," Since w

" Previously, Leonardo mentioned that Khloe would still see her as the enemy regardless of whether she wanted to fight over their parents' inheritance. As long as she was the biological daughter of the Lawson house hold, she would be a threat to Khloe. As she thought about it, she figured Leonardo would support her decision to enter the Lawson corporation, as joining the corporation meant she was competing against Khloe.

    What a cunning fox! By the time the couple finished their meal, they received word that D'Angelo had arrived. The bodyguards cleared the table.Vanessa went forward and pushed Leonardo's wheelchair out of the pavilion. When she heard that D'Angelo had come, she kept looking around for him. Leonardo noticed her movements and turned around to ask, "Do you like D'Angelo?" "Nope. I like you, Leo!"Vanessa was not foolish enough to step on this landmine set by Leonardo. In any case, she was telling the truth She had no feelings toward D'Angelo in her past life, she never got to make an appointment with him to do her hair. It was her lingering sense of regret that drove her to look around for him.Leonardo's temper was appeased by her declaration.

    Leonardo did not pick up her call. However, Vanessa did not give up, and on the sixth attempt, he finally answered his phone. "Leo," Vanessa greeted in a sweet voice. He did not respond. "Leo, I can't find my way in. Can you get someone to lead the way for me?" No response again. "Leo..." Vanessa's voice grew soft and pleading. Perhaps her tone had been sweet enough to melt the iceberg of the man because he uttered coldly, "Stay where you are. Someone will come get you." "Okay. Thank you, Leo." Leonardo was the one who caused her predicament, but she still had to thank him. Vanessa was rather disgruntled, but she had no choice. After all, she was the one living under his roof, so she had to be the one who gave in. After hanging up the phone, Leonardo called his butler over and instructed him, "Mr. Clayton, go and lead the way fo her. She doesn't remember her way in." Vincent nodded respectfully. "Alright."

She was in a hurry to return to the Quinns, so she drove quickly.Actually, she wasn't a newbie, but this was a new car, and she cherished it.

    Just as the family of three exited the building, Khloe came chasing with the bouquet Francis brought."Nessa." She ran with the flowers and stopped in front of Vanessa before giving them to her while explaining with a soft and gentle smile, "Francis asked me to help give you these flowers on his behalf. He said you had misunderstood him and were unwilling to receive these flowers. Actually, you did misunderstand him, Nessa. He didn't visit you because he was swamped. Now that he's done with his work, he came to visit you immediately, didn't he?" However, Vanessa didn't accept the flowers. She looked at the bouquet and found it was arranged with roses and baby's breath. Although it was arranged beautifully, they weren't flowers that she liked."I don't like roses," she stated as she looked at Khloe. Then, she argued, Mommy and I decided to come over in a spur of a moment, so how could Francis have known that I would be at the office and to come with flowers? Can he predict the futu

    Finally, Francis couldn't control himself any longer and wrapped one hand around her waist while still holding on to the flowers he was reluctant to throw away. After the kiss, she caressed his swollen cheek and asked, "What did you do to make her slap you?" Francis explained aggrievedly, "Actually, I didn't do anything to her. She ignored me, so I wanted to grab her hand, but then she turned around and slapped me. Her movement was so quick that I didn't have the time to react and got slapped right in the face." He continued to mumble, "Why didn't I discover that she was so nimble and, not to mention, very strong? When her slap ended on my cheek, it burned, and I could even feel it swell up." Resentment appeared in Khloe's eyes as she snarled, "Your family and I aren't even willing to touch a strand of your hair, but she dares to slap you. Just wait until I get my hands on her. Afterward, I'll help you get your justice and make her pay twice as much, don't worry this won't go un
