Meanwhile, at Palm Coast Resort.“What did you say?”Eleanor’s eyes widened at Quinn’s words.Someone from Palm Coast Enterprise was coming to purchase their property?That was completely unexpected.“You’re not making this up, are you?”Although she couldn’t hide her smile, Eleanor still found it hard to believe.In this city, almost no one could afford to buy that property except the Mercer family.As for Palm Coast Enterprise—while it wasn’t a small company, it was far from being a giant.“That’s true, Grandmother.”Quinn nodded firmly.“I received the news directly from the company’s representative. They’ve acquired a new investor who’s interested in our property. They also said they would come today to make an offer.”“Ah… I see.”Eleanor studied her granddaughter’s face for a moment.There wasn’t the slightest hint of hesitation or deceit.“This child seems to be telling the truth,” she thought.The news was certainly refreshing.At the very least, she wouldn’t have to sell the

“Excellent! That’s wonderful news!”Eleanor broke into a broad smile.“Well then, what are you all waiting for?”She addressed every attendant in the hotel’s living room.“Quickly, make this place as comfortable as possible. Your boss will be arriving shortly. At the very least, show that you’re employees worthy of the salary you’re paid.”“Yes, ma’am.”The attendants immediately moved to carry out Eleanor’s orders.“Quinn, sit here with me.”Eleanor patted the seat beside her.Her expression was calm, a faint smile on her lips.But anyone who truly knew her understood that such a gesture was never as simple as it appeared.“But, Grandmother…”Quinn hesitated.It wasn’t that she wanted to refuse.But within the Hayes family, it was common knowledge that where you sat beside Eleanor reflected your standing in the family.The closer the seat, the closer you were to the matriarch—and the more trust you commanded.Quinn knew Barbara desperately wanted that position.She didn’t want to cre

Another thirty minutes passed, and there was still no sign of anyone arriving.“Damn! Why does this feel more and more boring?”Henry waved both hands impatiently.“Are we really going to sit here all day doing nothing?”He turned toward Eleanor, who was also starting to look restless.“Who exactly are we waiting for? Is a buyer really coming today?”His words didn’t provoke Catherine.But seeing the discomfort on Eleanor’s face, Catherine immediately whispered into her daughter’s ear.“This has gone on for too long. You’re sure that man is coming?”Quinn nodded without saying a word. She looked just as uneasy.“He told me himself, Mother. I swear.”This was exactly what Quinn had feared.She knew Eleanor’s gestures were never simple.When the matriarch trusted you—or appeared to trust you—it was actually a silent form of pressure.Results were expected. Mistakes were not tolerated.And if nothing came of it in the end, the consequences were too heavy to imagine.Ever since Quinn had

What?Quinn lifted her head, her eyes widening as her face turned deathly pale.She had just felt a sense of relief, yet the servant’s words struck her ears like a bolt of lightning.Catherine, sitting beside her, wore the same expression.Aside from the two of them, nearly everyone in the room immediately turned toward the servant, brows deeply furrowed.“Don’t make things up. Tell the truth.”Her tone was cold and calm. Eleanor was the only one who seemed unaffected.“Yes, ma’am.”The servant nodded.“I’m telling the truth. He also brought many people with him.”Brought many people?The question instantly surfaced in everyone’s mind.Why would a member of the Mercer family arrive with so many people if he only intended to do business?But the thought barely had time to settle before laughter exploded throughout the room.“Hahahaha!”“So funny! This is absolutely hilarious!”Henry burst out laughing uncontrollably, his index finger pointing straight at Catherine’s face.“Didn’t you j

Without needing any explanation, everyone assumed the girl Axel wanted had to be Barbara.However, the way Axel said it—didn’t that mean he was looking down on the girls of the Hayes family as nothing more than commodities?That was absolutely unacceptable.“Hey, watch your mouth when you speak!”Barbara could no longer hold herself back as she shouted, glaring fiercely at the man across the table.She didn’t even care about the bodyguards standing behind him.The man was handsome. Very handsome, in fact.But hearing what he said felt like a knife stabbing straight into her pride.“You think you’re so high and mighty just because you’re buying our property? How shameless! If we wanted to, we could sell it to someone else for an even higher price!”Of course, Barbara was bluffing—and Axel knew it.“Huh? What did you just say?”Axel looked at Barbara with an amused smirk, shaking his head.“You think I want you? Idiot.”His index finger then pointed straight at Quinn.“Her. I want her a

“This is getting more and more interesting!”Henry struggled to keep a serious expression on his face as he inwardly cheered at what he had just heard from the matriarch.“I never expected Mother to be this bold!”It was completely beyond his expectations.Although he hated Quinn to the core, he had never imagined that his mother would be willing to “sell” her granddaughter.Still—if that really happened, he would be more than delighted.“M-Mother, y-you… you can’t be serious, right?”Catherine’s voice trembled.“No one would ever do something like that to their own granddaughter. Especially not hand her over to a bastard like him.”“Oh? You still have the nerve to say that to me?” Eleanor snapped, her tone razor-sharp.“Do you think I’m a fool? How long do you plan on lying to me? Are you going to keep insisting that this girl is my granddaughter?”Catherine’s body stiffened.Shock was written all over her face."Oh my God!"Her thoughts spiraled as her posture grew restless."What i

"Good God… what is this?"Quinn could only cry out in her heart as she stared at Eleanor.Not a single word escaped her lips.She couldn’t.Her face was stiff, pale as a corpse.Her body seemed to lose all strength at once.She didn’t want to believe what she was hearing—but Eleanor had never lied.The matriarch of the Hayes clan always spoke the truth, even when that truth was brutal and cruel.“Go with Axel, and I might consider that your repayment,” Eleanor said coldly.“After that, you won’t need to think about your debt to this family ever again.”After saying that, the smile on her face widened.She looked genuinely pleased.She then turned her gaze forward once more.“That’s not true!”Catherine shouted, barely holding herself together.“Quinn is my daughter! No one has the right to take her away from me!”She could no longer stop the tears as she covered her face with both hands.She knew that no matter how loudly she screamed, her voice meant nothing.Once Eleanor had made a

“I can’t.”Catherine pushed the documents away with her hand.Her face trembled as she sobbed.In her entire life, this was the first time she allowed others to see her cry.To her, tears were weakness, something she never wanted to show anyone.But this time, she couldn’t hold it back.“Think about this carefully,” Eleanor said.Unlike her daughter, her cold and indifferent expression did not change in the slightest.To her, Quinn was nothing more than a very useful tool to make money.“With that money, not only can you pay off all your debts to me, you can also start the garment business you’ve always wanted.”Yet Catherine seemed unmoved, continuing to cover her face with both hands.“Mother…”Quinn’s voice was barely audible as she looked at Catherine’s unwavering resolve.Even though she had been forbidden from addressing the Hayes family with familial titles, the woman who had raised her still warmed her heart.“Enough of this nonsense.”Across the table, Axel’s cold gaze locked

“F-father…”Quinn was left completely speechless.The person she believed loved her the most turned out to be the one who made the cruelest decision without hesitation.Because Quinn’s adoption documents had originally been signed by Jonathan, he was the one with the full authority to sign them again.“I’m sorry, Quinn. There’s no other choice.”There was not a trace of hesitation as he reached for the documents.“No one doesn’t want money. Besides, we’ve suffered long enough because of you. I’m sure you understand.”“No. Please, don’t do this.”Catherine tried to snatch the papers back from her husband, but it was useless.“There’s no need for all this acting anymore,” Jonathan said coldly.“Everything is already exposed. We’re not even that girl’s real parents. So what’s the point of pretending we still care about her?”“No. That’s not how it should be. Please, give it back to me.”Catherine kept trying, but Jonathan blocked her.“Cathy, didn’t you hear what your mother said? For th

“Mr. Garvey, where exactly are we going?”After thirty minutes of complete silence, Gianna finally spoke up.Even though it only made her seem clueless, the slight tension on Martin’s face made her uneasy, as if something serious was unfolding.Besides, judging from their surroundings, she knew exactly where they were.The Mercer District? she thought. Isn’t this the territory of the Mercer family? What is Martin really looking for? What’s going on?Unlike Carven, this area wasn’t filled with extravagant mansions. Instead, the houses looked ordinary, yet undeniably well-off.To an outsider, they might appear like normal neighbors.But in truth, they were anything but ordinary.These houses belonged to people who served under the Mercer family.And at the far end, standing on an estate spanning nearly ten hectares, rose a towering five-story mansion.The Mercer family mansion.“Miss Gianna, I don’t want to waste time anymore.”Martin finally spoke as the Range Rover he had been followi
