Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 673

Chapter 673 "Come in."

Philip stepped into the office and instantly started to panic when he saw Maribel standing before windy. "Miss Kingsley, I didn't get the chance to clarify, but Director Clark is on sick leave today. This is Maribel Lionel, the Associate Director."

Windy had not noticed that difference as she had only heard the word 'Director'. The faint smile on her lips dropped as she said coldly, "So you're telling me that I've wasted my time talking to a fake?"

Philip held his breath nervously. "I'll take her outside right away! I'm sorry for wasting your time, Miss Kingsley."

"Miss Kingsley, Clark isn't here, but I'm authorized to represent VSA Group as well. I—"

"Go back and tell Catelyn Clark that her absence has upset me. Our companies will not be cooperating this time. That land means nothing to me," declared windy.

A few bodyguards came in to take Maribel out. Not knowing how the situation had escalated to this point, Maribel frantically tried to explain, but the bodyguard covered her mouth and started to drag her out of the office.

Naturally, Catelyn had no clue of what had happened to Maribel in Deluxe International as she was on the way to pick her children up from kindergarten before heading to the hospital to visit Stella.

Quinn refused to leave the hospital, and once Catelyn was gone, she snuck back into Stella's room and woke her up in tears.

Stella's head was pounding, so when she saw Quinn sobbing, she turned dazedly to look at her.

"Mom, you need to help me..." Quinn fell on her knees next to Stella's bed.

Stella instantly snapped out of her dazed state. "Quinn, what...did you just call me?"

Fighting back the disgust she felt, Quinn repeated pathetically with tears in her eyes, "I was wrong, Mom. I shouldn't have gotten angry at you. I should've known that you were only trying to look out for me. I don't have Dad now, and you are my only family left. Let's not be angry at each other, okay?"

Feeling a lump in her throat, Stella hesitated for a while before muttering, "So you don't blame me anymore?"

'I don't blame you?' Quinn scoffed mentally. 'I still do, duh! Getting you on my side right now is the priority now, though.'

Quinn nodded. "You gave me life, why would I blame you for anything?"

"My sweet girl, stop kneeling and get up..." Stella tried to pull Quinn up, but Quinn stubbornly remained still. Her tears scrolled down, leaving behind trails on her cheeks.

Quinn's tears struck Stella's heart like lightning.

This was her daughter. Throughout all the years they had been apart, she had never stopped dreaming about reuniting with her daughter, and now, Quinn had finally admitted that Stella was her mother.
