Chapter 51 Distort The Truth
“You…” Han opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say.
“It was my fault, Quinn admitted. “I should have informed you when I got married. I’m sorry for causing you distress back then.”
Han felt a slight sting in his nose. “Well, I was really upset back then.”
That was because the moment he realized his feelings for her, she had already gotten married.
“But now, I’m really happy!” Han said.
“Happy?” Quinn was taken aback. “Because of my divorce<i>?</i>”
“Yes. I’m overjoyed because of your divorce!” he said, raising his ss and taking a big gulp.
The red wine trickled once more from the corner of his mouth, flowing down his neck and disappearing into his cor.
His bright and beautiful eyes held a hint of intoxication at that moment. “Once you’re divorced, I have something to tell you,” he said.
With augh, Quinn asked, “Can’t you say it now?”
He shook his head. “I’ll tell you afterward.”
That was because he wanted that when he spoke those words, there would be no moral shackles or societal constraints between them.
“All right,” responded Quinn.
Perhaps because he had drunk too much, Han found himself sprawled out on the table,pletely intoxicated.
Looking at Han and Laura, who were already drunk, Quinn massaged her temples, feeling a slight headache. She knew she’d have to muster up quite a bit of strength to help both of them to their rooms
soon.
Just then, a text message popped up on her phone.
She opened the text message, which was from Trent and informed her about the exact time of the divorce press conference.
She looked at the text message. All that was left between her and Trent was chilling indifference.
The day for the press conference/came around quickly.
Even though Quinn had initially nned to go alone, Laura was adamant about apany ..g her. “You’re getting a divorce, and I’m like family to you, right? Of course, I’ll go with you,” said Laura. Quinn felt a surge of warmth enveloping her body. Ever since Montague and Arlene passed away and

Rowan disappeared, she had been left all alone. Even after getting married, she still felt like she had no family.
However, no matter what happened, Laura always stood by her side.
“Yes. You’re like my family!” Quinn said.
When the two of them arrived at the hotel where the press conference was to be held, the ce was already set up, though it wasn’t time yet.
To her surprise, the first people Quinn encountered were Jacinda and Penelope.
As soon as the two of them caught sight of Quinn, their faces instantly took on a menacing expression.
Penelope stormed over, swinging a p in Quinn’s direction. “How dare you show up here? You refused to write an apology letter! Will you only be satisfied when you’ve gotten me and Jacinda into jail?”
She attempted to p Quinn, but before her hand could even reach Quinn’s face, Quinn had already caught her wrist.
“It’s not that I want you behind bars. It’s the consequences of your own wrongdoings!” Quinn said coldly, shrugging off Penelope’s hand.
However, Penelope immediately started shouting, “Gosh! Thisdy is hitting her mother–inw!”
Quinn furrowed her brows, and just then, Trent’s voice rang out. “Quinn, did you hit my mom?”
When Quinn nced back, she saw Trent and Sidonie approaching.
Jacinda quickly helped Penelope over to Trent and said, “Trent, earlier, when Mom scolded Quinn for refusing to write an apology letter, she got upset and hit Mom!”
With a cool gaze, Quinn watched Penelope and ‘Jacinda distort the truth. After that, she looked at Trent and asked, “Do you believe those words?”
“She’s my mom. Naturally, I believe them. There’s a press conferenceing up, and I don’t want things to get awkward. You’d better apologize to my mom right away,” Trent said.
Quinn suddenly burst intoughter. <i>Oh</i><i>, </i><i>Trent</i><i>… </i>Despite <i>having </i><i>previously </i>witnessed <i>his </i><i>mother’s </i><i>deceitful </i><i>and </i><i>malicious </i><i>side</i><i>, </i>he still <i>keeps </i><i>professing </i><i>his </i><i>belief </i><i>in </i><i>her</i><i>. </i><i>Therefore</i><i>, </i><i>he </i><i>has </i><i>never </i><i>truly considered </i><i>me </i><i>as </i><i>family</i>, <i>not </i>in <i>the </i><i>past </i><i>and </i><i>certainly not </i><i>in </i><i>the </i><i>future! </i>
Trent frowned slightly in discontent. “What’s so funny?” he asked, sounding slightly annoyed.
“Divorcing you is truly the best decision I’ve ever made!” said Quinn.
Trent’s expression shifted. Even though their divorce was to be announced that day, when he heard such words from her lips, he still felt ufortable.
That feeling was slowly morphing into a piercing pain, as if it was reminding him that he was on the brink of losing something truly significant.
Trent ignored the sting in his heart and said, “If you refuse to apologize, don’t me me for not giving you a single penny of the one million five hundred thirty thousand you asked for!”

As soon as those words were spoken, Laura was so infuriated that she blurted out, “Trent, are you even human? That one million five hundred thirty thousand was Quinnie’s parents’-”
Before she could finish her sentence, Quinn interrupted her, “Laura, let me handle this.”
Once she finished speaking, Quinn immediately picked up her phone and yed a video she had just recorded.
The video clearly showed Quinn’s entrance, followed by Penelope’s failed attempt to hit her, and the subsequent staged scene of being hit.
