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

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!

Trent frowned slightly in discontent. “What’s so funny?” he asked, sounding slightly annoyed.

“Divorcing you is truly the best decision I’ve ever made!” said Quinn.

Trent’s expression shifted. Even though their divorce was to be announced that day, when he heard such words from her lips, he still felt uncomfortable.

That feeling was slowly morphing into a piercing pain, as if it was reminding him that he was on the brink of losing something truly significant.

Trent ignored the sting in his heart and said, “If you refuse to apologize, don’t blame me for not giving you a single penny of the one million five hundred thirty thousand you asked for!”

As soon as those words were spoken, Laura was so infuriated that she blurted out, “Trent, are you even human? That one million five hundred thirty thousand was Quinnie’s parents’-”

Before she could finish her sentence, Quinn interrupted her, “Laura, let me handle this.”

Once she finished speaking, Quinn immediately picked up her phone and played a video she had just recorded.

The video clearly showed Quinn’s entrance, followed by Penelope’s failed attempt to hit her, and the subsequent staged scene of being hit.
