Chapter 51 Distort The Truth

“You…” Harlan opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.

“It was my fault, Quinn admitted. “I should have informed you when I got married. I’m sorry for causing you distress back then.”

Harlan felt a slight sting in his nose. “Well, I was really upset back then.”

That was because the moment he realized his feelings for her, she had already gotten married.

“But now, I’m really happy!” Harlan said.

“Happy?” Quinn was taken aback. “Because of my divorce?”

“Yes. I’m overjoyed because of your divorce!” he said, raising his glass and taking a big gulp.

The red wine trickled once more from the corner of his mouth, flowing down his neck and disappearing into his collar.

His bright and beautiful eyes held a hint of intoxication at that moment. “Once you’re divorced, I have something to tell you,” he said.

With a laugh, Quinn asked, “Can’t you say it now?”

He shook his head. “I’ll tell you afterward.”

That was because he wanted that when he spoke those words, there would be no moral shackles or societal constraints between them.

“All right,” responded Quinn.

Perhaps because he had drunk too much, Harlan found himself sprawled out on the table, completely intoxicated.

Looking at Harlan and Laura, who were already drunk, Quinn massaged her temples, feeling a slight headache. She knew she’d have to muster up quite a bit of strength to help both of them to their rooms

soon.

Just then, a text message popped up on her phone.

She opened the text message, which was from Trent and informed her about the exact time of the divorce press conference.

She looked at the text message. All that was left between her and Trent was chilling indifference.

The day for the press conference/came around quickly.

Even though Quinn had initially planned to go alone, Laura was adamant about accompany ..g her. “You’re getting a divorce, and I’m like family to you, right? Of course, I’ll go with you,” said Laura. Quinn felt a surge of warmth enveloping her body. Ever since Montague and Arlene passed away and

Rowan disappeared, she had been left all alone. Even after getting married, she still felt like she had no family.

However, no matter what happened, Laura always stood by her side.

“Yes. You’re like my family!” Quinn said.

When the two of them arrived at the hotel where the press conference was to be held, the place was already set up, though it wasn’t time yet.

To her surprise, the first people Quinn encountered were Jacinda and Penelope.

As soon as the two of them caught sight of Quinn, their faces instantly took on a menacing expression.

Penelope stormed over, swinging a slap in Quinn’s direction. “How dare you show up here? You refused to write an apology letter! Will you only be satisfied when you’ve gotten me and Jacinda into jail?”

She attempted to slap Quinn, but before her hand could even reach Quinn’s face, Quinn had already caught her wrist.

“It’s not that I want you behind bars. It’s the consequences of your own wrongdoings!” Quinn said coldly, shrugging off Penelope’s hand.

However, Penelope immediately started shouting, “Gosh! This lady is hitting her mother–in–law!”

Quinn furrowed her brows, and just then, Trent’s voice rang out. “Quinn, did you hit my mom?”

When Quinn glanced back, she saw Trent and Sidonie approaching.

Jacinda quickly helped Penelope over to Trent and said, “Trent, earlier, when Mom scolded Quinn for refusing to write an apology letter, she got upset and hit Mom!”

With a cool gaze, Quinn watched Penelope and ‘Jacinda distort the truth. After that, she looked at Trent and asked, “Do you believe those words?”

“She’s my mom. Naturally, I believe them. There’s a press conference coming up, and I don’t want things to get awkward. You’d better apologize to my mom right away,” Trent said.

Quinn suddenly burst into laughter. Oh, Trent… Despite having previously witnessed his mother’s deceitful and malicious side, he still keeps professing his belief in her. Therefore, he has never truly considered me as family, not in the past and certainly not in the future!
