Chapter 551
“Hahaha! Alright! I trust you, of course!” Terence was even more elated than
usual, surpassing the joy he felt at festive occasions after hearing
Mackenzie’s words.
He was a wise old man who understood the importance of trust in a
marriage and that a couple’s relationship is only secure if they trust each
other. Nonetheless, money was not a priority for a seventy–year–old man like
him; rather, he was concerned with ensuring that the family name would be
carried on. It seemed pointless to him to amass wealth if there would be no
heir to pass it on to.
“Are you sure you want to sell that, Old Mr. Quillen?” Alfred asked as he
approached Terence after he got off the phone.
“Now that things have reached this point, I have no other choice.” Terence
sighed and continued, “It goes without saying that a company’s cash flow is
essential to its survival. The alliance between the Lenoir and Verkade families
has pushed us to the brink. We have to give it our all!”
After hearing this, Alfred nodded understandingly. A part of him knew that the
Lenoir and Verkade families, despite being so powerful that everyone else
considered them to be on par with the Quillen family, would never be able to
win once the Quillen family brought out their trump card.
Meanwhile, Mackenzie had mixed feelings following her conversation with her
grandfather. Despite her desire to have complete faith in Emmanuel, the
photos and video were like needles that had sunk deep within her, making
her extremely uncomfortable. Even as she lay in bed that night, she began to
have second thoughts.
The following day at Lenoir Residence, groups of medical personnel could be
seen coming and going from the house early in the morning.
At this time, Elizabeth was in the house and observing the flurry of activity as
varying fame and renown doctors performed medical exams and consulted
with one another. Claudette’s condition is deteriorating, and her vital signs
are dropping. We would lose her forever if she did not regain consciousness
within three days.
On the other hand, a large group of medical professionals, including
renowned specialists Juan Gomez and Zander Brooks, as well as some
alternative medicine experts and quacks, gathered in a hall to discuss the
most effective treatment for Claudette.
They were aware that her condition stemmed from problems with two major
organs, the heart, and the brain, as it was difficult to treat even one of them.
Despite the best efforts of the cardiologists treating the heart and the
neurologists treating the brain, no one believed she could be saved because
it was difficult for them to treat the individual organs, let alone work together
