The True Heiress Slays (Quiana) novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5

After a quick shower and drying her hair, Quiana heard her phone buzzing. She plopped into a chair, legs casually draped. over the bedside, and answered the call..

“Quiana, are the Larsons being nice to you?” A young voice came through the phone, full of worry and care.

Quiana replied nonchalantly, still drying her hair with a towel, “It’s alright.”

“That means they’re not treating you right! But they’re your real parents, they shouldn’t be acting that way,” Hugo Levine pouted.

Then he switched gears. “Quiana, someone from the Larson family found me today and gave me a bank card. I checked, and there’s 70 thousand dollars on it!” His voice was tinged with disbelief.

“70 thousand dollars! I’ve never seen so much money!” Hugo gasped, and then hesitated. “Why would the Larson family give

me this much cash?”

The guy from the Larson family handed Hugo the card, said it was a gift, and left. Hugo couldn’t wrap his head around since he didn’t think the Larson family owed him anything.

Then an idea flashed across Hugo’s mind. “Could it be that Winona is so into money and fancy stuff that she won’t leave the Larson place?

“Maybe the Larsons feel bad and, to save her rep, they’re trying to buy me off and mess with my head before getting rid of me for good?”

“You’ve got an imagination,” Quiana smirked, teasing him. “Yeah, so you better enjoy it while you can, just in case.”

Hugo sounded scared. “Quiana, you have to help me! You wouldn’t let your cute and handsome bro die young, right?”

Quiana wasn’t falling for his act. She dropped the towel, pulled out her laptop from her bag, and hit the power button. Then, she casually said, “Winona’s not going anywhere, and she probably won’t even acknowledge you.”

Even though 70 thousand dollars was pocket change for the Larson family, giving that much to Hugo showed how much they cared about Winona.

Hugo was quiet for a bit, and then grumbled, “Like I need that jerk to acknowledge me anyway?”

The lake was clear and clean, with red koi swimming around. The fishing book shimmered in the water, but there was no

Shane Spence laughed at Julius, “I doubt a fish would bite without bait”

Julius didn’t even look up, the teardrop mole at the corner of his eye nearly transparent under the sunlight, adding a touch of charm. His voice is cold and clear. “Any leads on the miracle doctor?”

Shane got serious, draped a gray thin blanket over Julius’s legs, and frowned, “No.”

Shane was born into a family with a long history in medicine, his father being the Deputy Director of the National Medical

Surrounded by this, Shane started studying medicine young and joined the Medical Association by 26. Yet, he never had a formal position and rarely treated outsiders, becoming Julius’s personal doctor instead.

But Julius’s health was getting worse, and all Shane could do was keep Julius alive. They were looking for the miracle doctor. The Seraphic, who could save Julius.
