The events at the Grant Family banquet are known throughout Solaria.
Serena Sullivan was humiliated by Mr. Grant, who exposed that she couldn’t have children, leading to her tumbling down the stairs. These events pierced like needles into Claire Sullivan’s heart.
She also secretly went to see Serena.
Having lost so much, Serena didn’t react like Zoe Quinn with despair; instead, she sat on the bed chatting and laughing.
At this mont, Claire Sullivan was clearer-minded than ever before.
Zoe Quinn cried out about not wanting to live, what about Serena then?
She had lost the use of her legs and the ability to be a mother, wasn’t that more painful and a greater reason not to want to live?
Seeing Claire Sullivan silent, Zoe Quinn thought she was angry with Serena over her own affairs, and glanced at Ruth Hale behind Serena.
"Claire, it was all my fault before, but really, none of it has anything to do with Zoe."
Burdened with the title of a plagiarist and severing ties with Claire Sullivan, combined with Ethan Grant’s suppression, Ruth Hale’s days were very difficult.
She had already closed the studio; no one in Solaria sought her for jewelry design.
Thinking it over, she still had to appease this foolish woman, Claire Sullivan.
"No." Zoe Quinn quickly claid responsibility, "It was my fault."
"I shouldn’t have listened to Ms. Hale for everything; I should’ve admitted the plagiarism myself four years ago, then my sister wouldn’t have been wronged."
Zoe Quinn spoke, and began crying painfully.
"Let’s not talk about this matter anymore," Claire Sullivan replied in a leveled voice.
"Mom." Zoe Quinn sat up and threw herself into Claire Sullivan’s arms.
"Although my sister drugged , I don’t hate her."
"I know you care about her."
"So no matter what my sister does to , I won’t be angry."
Zoe Quinn sobbed intentionally portraying herself as kind and generous, fully aware that Ruth Hale would certainly play the antagonist.
"Zoe, even if you’re scared that your mom is in a difficult position, you can’t be so kind."
"Serena drugged you, destroyed your purity, forcing you to die!"
Ruth Hale was increasingly furious, "If it hadn’t been caught in ti, you would’ve been gone today."
Zoe Quinn matched her grief with crying, "I’m not afraid to die, I only fear, Mom..."
She looked at Claire Sullivan, tears streaming down her face, "Mom, don’t abandon ."
"My biological mom was gone early, after entering the Sullivan Family, you’ve been my mom!"
Zoe Quinn hugged Claire Sullivan tightly, calling "Mom, Mom," while Ruth Hale behind Claire curled her lips into a sinister grin as she glared at Zoe’s back.
Once they got hold of the Sullivan Corporation, she definitely intended to ruin Claire Sullivan.
"Alright."
Moved by Zoe Quinn’s tears, Claire Sullivan softened her voice.
Zoe Quinn being drugged had a significant impact on her; she had already lost a daughter, didn’t want this one...
"During the Grant Family banquet, the Sullivan Family’s stepdaughter Zoe Quinn, while being interviewed, revealed her real surna, showing disdain for her stepsister..."
Suddenly a piece of news popped up on the television broadcasting the program, and the scene shifted, flashing an image with a mosaic-covered but still conspicuously exposed Zoe Quinn, catching Claire Sullivan’s eye.
"How can that worthless Serena Sullivan keep you, she’s just a wretched person..."
The familiar mocking voice echoed, astonishingly it was Zoe Quinn’s clip from the Grant Family’s banquet.
Didn’t Sean Lockwood say those reporters had deleted it and wouldn’t air it?
She was shocked and couldn’t comprehend how the video suddenly appeared on TV, then Claire Sullivan’s hand forcefully withdrew from her palm, Zoe Quinn frantically called, "Mom!"
