With a swollen belly, Claire Sullivan chose the second path, moving out of The Sullivan Residence. At that ti, she was ostracized by Renee Grant, and every ti she went out, she encountered slander and vilification. It wasn’t until the child was born that the old man and woman, seeing Claire nearly lose her life to give birth, softened and brought their only daughter back to The Sullivan Residence.
After the postpartum confinent period, Claire Sullivan started investing in business.
The old man helped her run The Sullivan Corporation, but she still attended social engagents herself.
She developed business, entertained clients; because she was beautiful and had been abandoned by a man while pregnant, all those n coveted her.
Being groped, being taken advantage of gradually beca normal, and because of this, she was despised by the socialites of Solaria from the bottom of their hearts.
Marrying Joel Quinn was her own choice.
Joel Quinn was completely obedient to her, attentive to her every need, a completely different man from the one with the last na Xu.
She wanted a man who was obedient and compliant.
However, after marriage, she found that she couldn’t get past the hurdle in her heart.
Won are like this; so pains, so scars are unforgettable unless they fall in love with another man.
"But, Joel Quinn, have I ever mistreated you materially."
"Have I ever told you before, divorce!"
When Claire Sullivan realized she couldn’t get over that hurdle emotionally, she proposed divorce to Joel Quinn, but she actually regretted it.
Joel Quinn refused, kneeling at her feet, saying he didn’t mind, that he loved her for who she was, and even if he had to be a monk all his life, he wanted to stay by her side and be good to her.
After that, he indeed treated her better, just as he had promised.
She felt guilty towards him, so she helped him establish a foothold in The Sullivan Corporation, and fearing he would face discrimination and criticism in the company, she transferred shares to him against the old man’s objection.
She was equally good to his daughter, Zoe Quinn. Whatever Serena had, Zoe would surely have too, if not more.
In the end, she raised two ingrates.
But she raised a wolf in sheep’s clothing!
"Ha ha!" Joel Quinn sneered. Claire Sullivan wouldn’t let him touch her, so of course, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to agree to a divorce.
Once he got The Sullivan Corporation, had money, had power, wouldn’t he find plenty of young girls!
Besides, her daughter was youthful and even more beautiful.
"Stop saying these things! You’re not clean yourself, yet you pretend to be pure before ."
"If it wasn’t for taking the beating for you, the young lady of The Grant Family would have slapped your face to a pulp by now."
Joel Quinn mockingly brought up her and Felix Lockwood’s matter again.
Claire Sullivan was too lazy to explain to Joel Quinn about it.
She and Felix Lockwood were innocent; after Felix got married, she kept her distance. Felix didn’t want her risking her life to run The Sullivan Corporation and asked to et to talk, hoping she could let go of the past.
In the end, the talk was fruitless, and Renee Grant ca knocking indiscriminately. At that ti, Joel Quinn was outside the booth, taking the beating for her.
Because of this incident, she saw Joel Quinn differently, but she never thought that in Joel Quinn’s heart, she was just a shaless wrecked woman.
"Claire Sullivan, you bitch!"
"How about this!" Joel Quinn said, looking down at the cold-faced Serena Sullivan, the corners of his mouth curling up into a nauseating smile.
As soon as he spoke, Claire Sullivan shouted in panic, "Joel Quinn, what are you doing!"
