Our Billion-Worth Twins by Velvet Antler novel Chapter 761

Chapter 761

If Quinn was attentive, she would have seen that Stella had lost several kilograms in just a few days.

Stella opened the door and invited Quinn in.

Quinn, wearing branded clothes and a high-end purse, felt uncomfortable the moment she stepped into the hall. Nonetheless, she held Stella's hand and said affectionately, "I’m so sorry, Mom. It was my fault, but I didn't do it on purpose."

Stella felt her face growing warm at the affection. She sat down on the sofa, wiped her tears, and hastily blustered, "Then tell me: Since when did you become a member of the Atherton family?!"

"I..." Quinn hung her head low, pretending to be embarrassed. "If I tell you I stole Catelyn's identity, will you keep it a secret for me?"

"W—What?!" Stella’s eyes widened in disbelief as tears welled up.

Quinn wanted to gain Stella's trust before dealing with what was coming next, so she frankly said, "You heard right: Catelyn is the most respected daughter of Miss Atherton. Do you remember that bracelet that I've been asking you for? That's the token of the Atherton family's recognition of relatives. I secretly went to get the bracelet back, and the Atherton family recognized me as their descendant..."

"How could you do that? That's Cat relatives! Cat’s grandmother!"

Stella finally understood why Quinn had been looking for the bracelet and why Catelyn kept it locked in a safe. The bracelet was a token of kinship all along!

Stella felt a mix of fear and fury altogether.

She then took Quinn's hand and was about to call Catelyn while her panic magnified in her heart. "If that's true, you must call Cat immediately. Tell her that you're sorry and have her assume her true identity once more. You're blind to your faults..."

This swiftly irked Quinn, and she swung away Stella's hand.

"I knew you'd never think about me, always caring only about your stepdaughter! I've never felt the love from you for a day, and you even want to cruelly take my grandma, who truly loves me from the bottom of her heart, away from me! why would you do that? Why are all the good things in the world belong only to Catelyn?!"

She screamed in a hoarse voice with all her forces as if to deliberately damage her vocal cord and burst her lungs.

She blamed herself for turning soft-hearted earlier when she saw Stella.

"It's not that I don't want you to be loved by your grandmother, but I'm afraid that they'll discover that you've lied, and the Atherton family will never forgive you by then! I've been in the upper class for many years, and I know what they'll do when something like this happens very well. You may die!

"The only way for now is to ask for Cat's forgiveness. Quinn, can you be my good little girl one last time, just like how you used to?"

Stella could tell that Quinn was so heartbroken by the tears in her eyes as she persuaded her heartily.

Quinn lowered her head to hide the hideous look in her eyes. "Are you...going to help me plead with the Atherton family and let me go?"

"Of course, I'm being serious!" Stella unhesitatingly nodded, believing that Quinn finally came around.

Quinn raised her eyes again, and her eyes looked clear and harmless. "Alright, I'll do as you say. I'll call Catelyn after this meal and tell her the truth."
