Chapter 673


    Chapter 673 "Come in."


    Philip stepped into the office and instantly started to panic when he saw Maribel standing before windy. "Miss Kingsley,


    I didn''t get the chance to rify, but Director rk is on sick leave today. This is Maribel Lionel, the Associate Director."


    Windy had not noticed that difference as she had only heard the word ''Director''. The faint smile on her lips dropped as


    she said coldly, "So you''re telling me that I''ve wasted my time talking to a fake?"


    Philip held his breath nervously. "I''ll take her outside right away! I''m sorry for wasting your time, Miss Kingsley."


    "Miss Kingsley, rk isn''t here, but I''m authorized to represent VSA Group as well. I—"


    "Go back and tell Catelyn rk that her absence has upset me. Ourpanies will not be cooperating this time. That


    A few bodyguards came in to take Maribel out. Not knowing how the situation had escted to this point, Maribel


    frantically tried to exin, but the bodyguard covered her mouth and started to drag her out of the office.


    Naturally, Catelyn had no clue of what had happened to Maribel in Deluxe International as she was on


    the way to pick her children up from kindergarten before heading to the hospital to visit Ste.


    Quinn refused to leave the hospital, and once Catelyn was gone, she snuck back into Ste''s room and


    woke her up in tears.


    Ste''s head was pounding, so when she saw Quinn sobbing, she turned dazedly to look at her.


    "Mom, you need to help me..." Quinn fell on her knees next to Ste''s bed.


    Ste instantly snapped out of her dazed state. "Quinn, what...did you just call me?"


    Fighting back the disgust she felt, Quinn repeated pathetically with tears in her eyes, "I was wrong,


    Mom. I shouldn''t have gotten angry at you. I should''ve known that you were only trying to look out for


    me. I don''t have Dad now, and you are my only family left. Let''s not be angry at each other, okay?"


    Feeling a lump in her throat, Ste hesitated for a while before muttering, "So you don''t me me


    anymore?"


    ''I don''t me you?'' Quinn scoffed mentally. ''I still do, duh! Getting you on my side right now is the


    priority now, though.''


    Quinn nodded. "You gave me life, why would I me you for anything?"


    "My sweet girl, stop kneeling and get up..." Ste tried to pull Quinn up, but Quinn stubbornly remained


    still. Her tears scrolled down, leaving behind trails on her cheeks.


    Quinn''s tears struck Ste''s heart like lightning.


    This was her daughter. Throughout all the years they had been apart, she had never stopped dreaming about reuniting


    with her daughter, and now, Quinn had finally admitted that Ste was her mother.


    "Mom, I messed up. If you won''t help me, this might just be thest time you see me," Quinn said.


    Ste frantically grabbed onto Quinn''s hands and said, "What do you mean, you messed up?"


    "I... Back when I first came to Sapphire city, I worked part-time in a studio and identally broke an actress''s bracelet


    that looked just like the one cousin Catelyn has. I heard that it''s extremely expensive and that the actress is asking me


    topensate for it. Otherwise, she''s going to kill me!"

    Ste felt as though she was seeing stars. "Who is this actress? I''m going to call Cedrick. He should be able to help


    you..."


    "Don''t!" Quinn stopped her. "Cousin Catelyn hates me already, and if they find out that I messed up, I might even lose


    my job!"
