After a while, she ultimately said, “Laura, as the saying goes, ‘When in Rome, do as the Romans do.’ I’ve been a part of the Quillen family for a long time. My heart can’t always be with my natal family, especially since my parents have passed away!” 

“But your older brother is still alive, right?” Laura immediately interjected. “Even if he’s away right now, he’s still your blood relative, isn’t he?” 

Felicity frowned slightly, setting down her teacup. “Laura, why did you come to see me today? What’s your 

intention?” 

Finally, Laura cut to the chase. “Felicity, do you really want to abandon your family? Adolph still needs our help. The 

Lenoir family can’t just fall apart like this!” 

Since Adolph was suddenly transferred from Yeringham by the higher-ups, the Lenoir family had been instantly 

scattered. 

Felicity was naturally well aware of the Lenoirs’ current situation but could only sigh helplessly. “I have the will but 

lack the power. As a woman without power or wealth, what can I do?” 

“Felicity, now it’s just the two of us. You don’t need to put on an act!” Laura, known as the “Yeringham Vixen,” 

thought she was quite good at acting but realized she was still child’s play in front of a woman who truly knew how 

to act. 

“Don’t think I don’t know. In the past twenty years, you’ve accumulated numerous connections. Many have relied on your help and support to succeed! Yes! These people may not be your relatives, but as long as you ask them for help, they will surely repay your kindness and do everything to assist you!” She directly exposed Felicity’s cards. 

Felicity’s eyelashes trembled slightly, but her expression remained calm. 

“Laura, you’re overestimating me! I did help some people in the past, but they were not significant figures. I can’t do much, especially since I don’t have money!” Felicity sighed. “Money is the root of power, don’t you know that? Many rulers nowadays are controlled by financial conglomerates behind the scenes. Besides, Adolph is just a small facade in Yeringham. The Lenoir family has no control over any funds. How can we have the capital to make a 

comeback?” 

“So, we need to find a way to make big money!” Laura exclaimed excitedly. “Our two families must join forces and break free from the Zelinsky family’s control!” 

The Verkade family might be the Zelinsky family’s business partner, but in reality, they were heavily threatened by the latter. Once the Zelinsky family stopped the collaboration, the Verkade family’s assets would quickly shrink Despite being a lucrative cource of income for the Zelinsky family in the past, the Lenoir family, which was previously loyal, was suddenly treated as a discarded pawn by the Zelinsky family. With this precedent, the Verkade family could not afford not to panic. 

“How can I help you make money? I’m just a woman without money or power,” Felicity mocked herself. 

“You can!” Laura finally revealed the purpose of this visit. “You are Mackenzie’s mother. After you force Mackenzie 

previously loyal, was suddenly treated as a discarded pawn by the Zelinsky family. With this precedent, the Verkade family could not afford not to panic. 

“How can I help you make money? I’m just a woman without money or power,” Felicity mocked herself.
