The Divorced Military Queen Awakens (by Sadie Baxter) novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115 Give It Away

Her indifferent gaze sent a shiver through Trent’s heart.

The look she gave him was so icy, as if he had become someone insignificant to her now.

“What do you mean the necklace belongs to Sidonie? You gifted it to her using our shared marital assets, something I never agreed to! Therefore, this necklace was never hers to begin with, let alone return. Once we’re back in Jexburgh, I’ll take legal action to reclaim it!” Quinn declared.

She constantly gave in, yet the duo took it for granted. How ridiculous.

“Quinn, when it comes down to it, you’re just after the money, aren’t you?” Sidonie spat out in frustration. “When you divorced, you said you only wanted one hundred and fifty three million. But now, you’re eyeing these expensive pieces of jewelry. Isn’t that why you’re trying to take them away?”

“And what about you? You don’t want money? Then why accept these jewels? You don’t want people to call you a mistress, yet you accept these jewels. Can’t you buy them yourself? Why must you have a married man gift them to you?” Quinn retorted without mincing her words.

Sidonie was so upset that her face turned beet red.

Especially at this moment, outside the Bridger residence, there were also members of the Bridger family’s security team.

They had heard Quinn’s words as well.

“Let’s go,” Quinn said to Harlan.

“All right,” Harlan obediently agreed, a stark contrast to his usual arrogant demeanor toward Trent and Sidonie.

“Trent, Quinn was really out of line just now!” Sidonie said to Trent, “If she had just admitted she wanted these jewels, I would have given them to her. But she acted so duplicitously! I can’t stand people like that. There’s no way she’s getting what she wants!”

Trent was merely staring blankly at the departing car, his mind filled with the indifferent gaze Quinn had given him earlier.

When she left, she didn’t even spare him another glance.

Could it really be that she no longer cares about me at all?!

Trent was suddenly struck by a sharp pain in his chest. This pain, it seemed, was slowly spreading throughout his body with each pulse of his blood.

“Trent!” Sidonie raised her voice, trying

to get his attention. At that moment, Trent was just like he had been at the banquet yesterday, completely captivated by the sight of Quinn leaving. He was so engrossed that he didn’t even notice Sidonie standing right beside him.

This made Sidonie increasingly uncomfortable.

Regaining his composure, Trent finally spoke. “I’ll figure something out. Since I gave these jewels to you in the first place, they naturally belong to you.”

A hint of amusement finally graced Sidonie’s face. “Unfortunately, they took the necklace!”

“Once the company secures the island development project, I’ll buy you something even better,” Trent promised. Regardless of anything else, his primary reason for coming to Yarburn was to utilize Sidonie’s connections to win the island development project in Yarburn.

Only in this way could he rescue the company from its predicament. It would also serve as proof that the company’s success and its potential for going public were all due to his own efforts, not because of Quinn.

“Okay. With my help, you’ll definitely land the great project,” Sidonie assured, hooking her arm through Trent’s. “Come on. Let me take you inside the house and introduce you to the Bridger family!”

Meanwhile, inside the car, Quinn instructed Harlan, “Let’s head to the charity association first.”

“What for?” Harlan asked, puzzled.

“To give away this necklace,” she said.

An hour later, Quinn had finished all the donation procedures at the charity association. The necklace would be auctioned off, with all proceeds from the auction going to Operation Hope Elementary School, which aided children who had dropped out of school.

“It’s a good thing you gave away that piece of jewelry. If in the future, you fancy any jewelry, I’ll buy it for you, Quinnie!” Harlan said.
