Semua Bab Our Billion-Worth Twins: Bab 821 - Bab 830

Edwin remained silent for a while, squinting his attractive eyes to stare at Joanne closely.Joanne was slightly terrified as she moved in front of Edwin on her knees, on the couch."I think I know why your grandmother suddenly asked you to marry me already.""Why?""Well, when I went to talk to you about canceling the contract once, I stopped the wrong car. I didn't know that your grandmother was sitting in the car and accidentally said something wrong, which she might've mistaken..."Earlier that day when she heard Edwin addressing the old lady as his grandmother, she was flabbergasted.She realized that she could not blame Edwin completely for their contractual marriage as it was part of her fault that she made such a mistake.Edwin drank some wine with Cedrick in the evening, and coupled with the cold breeze, he felt a little drunk when he had already calmed down.His lips happened to brush against her small earlobe when he tilted his head.Joanne's earlobe turned pinkish.

"Second Master." A female makeup artist curtsied to Eugene when he walked in.Eugene smiled. "My niece, Quinn. I hope I'm not bothering you by visiting.""Uncle Eugene, you're too polite." Quinn stood up immediately and got a chair for Eugene to sit on before having everyone else leave the room.With only him and Quinn left in the room, Eugene immediately suppressed his smile and asked arrogantly, "How is it? Have you gotten the password to the old lady's safe?"Quinn lost her arrogance and asked nervously, "If I give you the password, will you help me keep it a secret?"That day, Eugene overheard Quinn's conversation with Catelyn. It was then he found out that Stella was not her aunt but her mother instead."Of course! Keeping you as my niece is better than having the real 'phoenix' back in our family and splitting the cake with her."Quinn hesitated for a moment, but she opened the drawer under the dressing table, took out a piece of paper, and handed it to Eugene. "I secretly

Granny Atherton took a napkin and gracefully wiped the red wine stains on the corner of her mouth, then stared at Draco coldly. "Your grandson is turning twenty-eight this year, right?"Draco nodded excitedly as Granny Atherton was willing to speak to him. "Yes, he's about the same age as Edwin."However, Granny Atherton's next sentence instantly shattered Draco's mood."Hmph. Almost all of your grandsons are dead, aren't they? Do you truly think Cedrick will live till he's thirty? You came to talk about their marriage with me. Is it because he only has two years left to live? Do you want Quinn, my granddaughter—me, Sylvie Smith—to become a widow in a few years? How cold-blooded you are! Why can't Quinn marry a good, healthy man? Doesn't she deserve to live a happy life?!"Draco was caught off-guard by the sudden spike of anger and hastily explained, "Syl, don't think like that. Ceddy has been taking medicine over the years, strictly sticking to the routine, and we've also funded m

'Stella woke up? Didn't Lola arrange for someone to stay in the hospital? Why didn't I receive any news?'Quinn was downright terrified at this point."Your biological mother has woken up and has identified you as her attempted murderer. To become the daughter of Miss Atherton, you didn't even hesitate to harm her! She's your biological mother! How can you do that?!""No, it's impossible..." Quinn, in sheer disbelief, roared, "You're fooling them! My mother isn't Stella—it's Summer! I'm part of the lineage of the Atherton family!""Did you forget how great Stella has treated you? You had no place to live, so she took you in. You didn't have a job, so she begged Cedrick to give you a job. You felt insecure, so she gave you all her savings, just to satisfy your freaking vanity!"Quinn covered her ears, not listening nor believing, and kept shaking her head.She stubbornly repeated, "My mother is Summer! I don't know what you're saying!""She sacrificed her whole life for you. How

She was fine until Catelyn said Stella had woken up.That meant Quinn had to make another choice, and her conspiracy was about to be revealed."Curse you! You're the one who should be dead, Catelyn! Why did you take my mother from me?! If you hadn't done that, our family would've lived happily, and I wouldn't have poisoned my mother! You think I've had good sleep all these years? I've been haunted by nightmares about my father questioning me why I did that to my mother!"With a flustered look, Quinn pushed Catelyn angrily.Surprisingly, Catelyn did not fall.A sturdy palm rested on her lower back, followed by Cedrick stepping out behind her. He pursed his lips, showing his displeasure.When Catelyn raised her head, her lips brushed against his lower jaw. Staring blankly at his handsome look, her heart skipped a beat.When Quinn saw Cedrick, it felt as though her savior had come for her.She suddenly burst into laughter. "Catelyn, it doesn't matter now if I'm not the granddaught
