Chapter 212: Chapter 212

Amanda Warren gently supported Old Mrs. Quinn as they descended the stairs.

"What are you doing? I’m not dead yet!" Old Mrs. Quinn said, fiercely striking her sandalwood cane on the ground with all her might.

Tom Quinn seemed exhausted from all the commotion, slumping on the floor, with his arm resting on the sofa, gasping for breath as he yelled hoarsely, "Our Quinn Family is at a life-and-death moment now. If we’re not careful, everything could disappear."

Old Mrs. Quinn asked in confusion, as Tom replied, including the Lawson Group’s last straw.

Everyone turned their gaze to Clara Quinn. Was it because of the birthday party incident? Tom angrily shouted at her, "Look at the mess you’ve caused. How else would this have happened?"

He raised his hand to hit Clara, but she quickly hid behind Amanda.

Old Mrs. Quinn shouted angrily and turned to Tom, "Even if you beat her to death now, it won’t solve anything. Do you really think the Lawson Group is targeting us just because of Claire’s incident?"

Tom and the others were taken aback, then realized, gritting his teeth and muttering, "Sienna Quinn, that ungrateful brat, she wants to drive me to death! To destroy the Quinn Family!"

"Sienna?" Old Mrs. Quinn asked in confusion. If not for Clara’s incident, how could this be connected to Sienna?

Tom reminded from the side, "That Sienna is always at odds with our Quinn Group. Now, the Yates Group has already stolen many of our business deals."

"Is that true?" Old Mrs. Quinn recalled a slight, delicate figure during the meeting, incredulously asking.

Clara saw her father calm down and also came downstairs to her grandmother’s side, saying, "That’s right, grandmother, you wouldn’t know. That Sienna came back from studying abroad and became quite capable. Even Sister Vance has suffered several times from her!"

"There’s someone who can make that Vance girl suffer? I don’t believe it!" Old Mrs. Quinn scoffed, turning to look at Tom’s unambitious demeanor, "At your age, letting kids play you ? Is this all you’re capable of?"

"Mom! You don’t know that Sienna. She’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing! She doesn’t deserve the Quinn name! Helping outsiders bully the family! An utter disgrace!" Tom was enraged, spouting all kinds of unpleasant words.

"Nonsense! If she’s scum, what about you!" Old Mrs. Quinn scolded Tom, then turned away, saying, "I’m tired. Clara, call Sister Vance and have that Vance girl come up with ideas for your father."

With that, Old Mrs. Quinn, leaning on her cane, went upstairs alone.

"Got it, grandmother. I’ll call Sister Vance now." Clara replied.

Amanda watched Old Mrs. Quinn’s retreating figure, only feeling she looked increasingly aged.

When Sienna’s parents died back then, Old Mrs. Quinn felt guilty, though she wouldn’t admit it. But since the decision was made, there was no room for regret; it was all done for the Quinn Family.

Now that the wolf cub has returned for revenge, it’s only to be expected. Yet the Quinn Family lacked the brains and courage, which doesn’t mean others don’t have them.

Old Mrs. Quinn’s mind, despite being clear on the situation, remained blind to her own narrow-mindedness and selfishness.

Amanda sighed, stepping forward to help Tom up, "Look at you, so agitated. The Quinn Family’s enterprise is vast; how could that little witch Sienna swallow it all at once? There are always ways to solve these issues! If you make yourself ill, what then?"

"If it were anyone else, I’d let it be, but why should Sienna treat the Quinn Family ? The Quinn Family has been more than generous to her!" Tom tried to stand with Amanda’s help but found his leg numb, falling back onto the floor, landing his hand on some sharp glass shards.

Blood flowed immediately.

"Hello? Sister Vance, what are you up to?" Clara asked cautiously.

"Giving myself a manicure." Vera Yates, tired of dealing with such brainless beings, replied irritably.

"Oh, today my dad came home furious, calling that bitch Sienna an ingrate! Betraying her own! Grandmother wants you to help my dad think of a way out!" Clara surprisingly said a lot without faltering.

"Oh? Tell me more." Vera’s interest spiked at the mention of Sienna’s name.

"Um... I’m not quite sure how to put it, but it seems we’ve lost all our clients somehow, and now my dad can’t get materials in, so he can’t operate." Clara gave her shallow explanation, but it was enough for the clever Vera to understand. Read complete version only at NoveI-Fire.ɴet

"I see, Clara! Have your grandmother and father rest well tonight. I’ll come over tomorrow to see you." Vera admired her freshly painted bright red nails, an idea already forming in her mind.

"That sounds great, see you tomorrow, Sister Vance!" Clara said happily.

In fact, Vera had noticed unusual activity from the Yates Group and Sienna’s unexpected quiet demeanor—she hadn’t been bothering Stephen recently. So, that’s where it all started!

Well, Sienna, I’ve underestimated you!

Never thought you’d have such an appetite to swallow the Quinn Group.

But with me, Vera Yates, around, you’ll never succeed! Vera hung up the phone, carefully admiring her manicure with a sinister grin.

So you want to take over the Quinn Group, let’s see how that goes.

Vera, sitting elegantly with her makeup on point, gazed at Clara and began slowly, "Actually, I do have a way, but I’m not sure if it will work."

"What is it?" Clara asked excitedly. She needed a solution to save the Quinn Family from their dire predicament. Now, everyone in the family viewed her as the jinx.

Moreover, the incident with Stephen also stemmed from her actions.

Yet, Clara underestimated Vera’s scheming mind; this woman wasn’t holding a grudge over the incident that day.

"I know, you don’t need to explain. Honestly, someone was behind the scenes causing trouble. Now, you’re not in a good place either." Vera spoke softly, feigning empathy.

Clara, naturally naive, was deeply moved hearing Vera’s words.

"That drugged drink was meant for Sienna, but somehow it ended up being me who drank it instead. I don’t even know why?"

Full of doubt, Clara looked at Vera, who replied calmly, "I think it was still Sienna’s doing. Otherwise, how could it all happen so coincidentally?"

Vera’s words triggered Clara’s realization of Sienna’s troublesome nature.

Seeing Clara’s gritted teeth expression, Vera couldn’t help but feel delighted at such an easily manipulated fool.

Even if things fall apart later, no suspicion would ever fall on her.

Unbeknownst to them, Sean Carter and Evan Quinn had already noticed the events at the birthday party.
