ra pushed Dn''s wheelchair back to the car, neither of them paying any mind


    to Nate, who was left for the bodyguards to deal with. The bodyguards, having been around Palm Beach for quite some time, couldn''t help but gossip.


    "Did you hear? The boss said he got spooked?"


    "Yeah... and he leaned on her."


    "Uh-huh..."


    They exchanged puzzled looks, trying to figure it out, and vented their frustration by giving Nate a swift kick.


    Back at Palm Beach, ra was immediately attended to by the family doctor, who was ready to bandage her wounds. Meanwhile, Dn held her other hand firmly. She wanted to ask if he''d forgotten to let go, but she always felt a bit intimidated around Dn-partly because of his condition and partly because she didn''t know the full truth about the past.


    Dn was genuinely a good guy and did not hold any grudges against her. She promised herself to be his personal sleeping pill from now on!


    Once the doctor finished, he quickly left, feeling out of ce. ra then remembered the recording she''d sent Dn and wondered if he had listened to it.


    "Mr. Dn, what about that recording..."


    "I''ve sent it out."


    She had no clue who he sent it to. Feeling a bit drained, ra leaned back, yawning as she said, "Alright, I''ll handle it after a nap."


    When ra woke up, she finally realized the full impact of Dn''s calm "sent it out." The recording had hit the headlines and was trending everywhere. Dr. Gribble''s voice had been carefully edited, but Quinn''s wasn''t touched.


    "I want everyone to believe she caused my miscarriage, so lend me a bag of blood first."


    "Make sure to delete the surveince footage. I want her left with no way to defend herself, and the stairs are perfect for it. You''ll announce that I lost the baby."


    "Hah, everyone will despise her. She''s always been a spiteful woman, and she deserves this!"


    Dr. Gribble''s hesitant voice also yed, "Are you sure about this, Miss Quinn? She is your sister after all..."


    "I never considered her my sister. Her existence only hinders me. I must use this to push her out of the Bradford family. This isn''t your concern; just do as I say!"


    Meanwhile, the trending title was [The Scheming Heiress: How Miss Bradford Framed Her Sister.]


    Thanks to Eden, everyone believed ra had pushed Quinn down the stairs, causing her miscarriage. Now, with this news and Quinn''s name ringly exposed, gossip spread like wildfire.


    Unaware of the storm brewing, Quinn had been brought home that day. She was feeling down, and the entire Bradford family walked on eggshells around her. Simon was obliged to stay by her side.


    "Simon, why so distracted? Are you upset about the baby too?" she asked, leaning weakly against Simon''s chest.


    Simon was actually worried about ra, but with Quinn clinging to him all afternoon, he hadn''t had a chance to investigate. Other family members were there too, with Ryan being the first to offerfort.


    "Quinn, there''ll be other kids. ra''s been punished, so don''t talk about jumping again. We''re all worried about you."


    Naomi peeled fruit for her. "Yes, you gave me a fright today, Quinn. Don''t bottle things up; we''re here for you."


    Quinn felt both touched and smug, finally having Ryan on her side. Her mom had even set Nate on ra, who was likely humiliated now. How perfect!


    Quinn would have a beautiful wedding with Simon and get a chance to meet Dn at the Ferguson family home. Though she couldn''t admit it, she was quite taken with Dn. Everyone showered her withfort, and she basked in the attention.


    Until Simon checked his phone, his face turning ashen. Quinn assumed he''d heard about ra''s disgrace and quickly feigned concern.


    "What''s wrong, Simon? Did something happen to my sister?"


    Simon seemed paralyzed, unable to move. Others grew worried too.


    "Simon, what''s wrong? Why do you look so upset?"


    Simon clutched his phone, the message from a friend revealing the recording, now trending. His friend even joked about the Bradford sisters being quite the pair.


    Simon, always concerned with appearances, was mortified to be the subject of ridicule. He recalled ra''s tearful plea at the hospital. Sheined about how everyone believed Quinn''s act. His mind was reeling as he pushed Quinn away, nearly knocking her over.


    Tears welled in her eyes. "Simon, what are you doing? That hurt!"


    Simon took a deep breath. "Quinn, I need to ask again. Were you really pregnant?"


    Quinn''s heart skipped a beat, fearing Simon knew the truth. ''Impossible,'' she thought. Dr. Gribble wasn''t at the hospital today, and she''d kept Simon close, leaving him no time to investigate. She quickly summoned tears.


    "Simon, what do you mean? Are you doubting me because of my sister''s usations?"


    Her tears triggered disapproval from the others. Naomi quickly helped Quinn up, giving Simon a disapproving look.


    "Simon, just say what you mean. She''s just had a miscarriage and is still very weak."


    Ryan chimed in, "Yeah, Quinn''s been sick all day. It''s been hard to watch."
