Chapter 209
"A setup? Your hand was practically groping her and you talk about being a setup? Do I look blind to you? Our family is in such a state of urgency, and you're buying millions worth of jewelry for that little slut. Have you funneled all the company's money to her? Tell me, who is that little slut, Sean? Where is she? Tell me!"
Lilian was evidently losing control of herself, raging like a madwoman, attacking Sean in a frenzy.
"Enough already, you lunatic." Sean finally couldn't take it anymore and with a forceful push, pushing Lilian forcefully to the ground.
"You pushed me? You actually hit me? Do you really think the Yates family is easy to bully? You dare push me for some cheap woman?"
"Lilian, for heaven's sake, can you use your brain for once? Miranda is still out there. If you keep causing a scene now, what if Quintessa goes after Miranda? Who will help her?"
The mention of Miranda finally brought Lilian back to her senses a bit.
"For Miranda's sake, I'll hold off on dealing with you for now, Sean. But you must explain this matter to me."
Sean forcefully dragged the enraged Lilian out, while Quintessa quickly slipped away.
Lilian blended back into the crowd, and Quintessa signaled to Yolanda with her eyes. Then Quintessa approached, linking her arm through Lilian's affectionately, saying, "Auntie, where've you been?" Unable to find Miranda anywhere, Lilian grew anxious, teetering on the edge of breakdown. Seeing Quintessa only fueled her rage, leaving her with no patience to play along. "Back off."
Quintessa chuckled. "Why so angry? Isn't it just infidelity. All men stray. Besides," she gave Lilian a once-over. "looking at you now, if my dad didn't stray, that would be the real problem. What man would
want
an old, ugly woman like you, and feel your flab? Ha, even if my dad did sleep with you, it'd probably be a quick affair, solving the problem in a second."
Quintessa's words were sharp and venomous, each one piercing Lilian's already frayed nerves.
Lilian finally couldn't bear it and pushed Quintessa away forcefully, angrily cursing, "Bitch, get away from me!"
Quintessa stumbled back two steps, then "accidentally" bumped into someone behind her, knocking over the person's glass.
The drink splashed onto Quintessa's
back. The person she bumped into steadied themselves, quickly
apologizing, "Sorry, I got your ne
clothes wet. Let me help you with that." sŵnovel.net
The people around had already been drawn by Lilian's earlier scream.
Quintessa smoothed her hair, her smile elegant. "It's fine, it was I who bumped into you."
She lifted her head, meeting Yolanda's eyes. Her body was already trembling.
With a wink to Yolanda, Quintessa signaled the start of their act.
Yolanda returned the smile, seeming about t
+ turn away, but Quintessa

reached out to stop her. "Wait miss.
Nook familiar!" Contenyongs

Yolanda smiled. "But I don't know you."
Quintessa suddenly reached for Yolanda's neck, and Yolanda looked "startled," "What are you doing?"
Quintessa pinched the blue sapphire necklace on her neck, "Nothing. Just felt that, miss, your necklace looks quite nice. It looks pricey, must be worth a few thousand? Your husband must be quite generous."C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
