The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Chapter 1011: Chapter 1011: The Pinecone Group gave them face because of Nathalie Quinlan.

In such a situation, Pinecone Group demanding thirty million in liquidated damages from them would undoubtedly be adding insult to injury, capable of annihilating the entire Quinlan Family!

”How could this happen.” Even Emilia Sullivan, who wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, understood they couldn’t come up with the money. If they did manage to come up with it, the Quinlan Family would basically be finished.

She had just experienced Ghania Quinlan’s car accident, her piano-playing hand was ruined, and she lost the opportunity to study abroad— a series of devastating blows.

At this moment, Jeff Quinlan delivered yet another heavy blow to her, nearly causing her to lose her footing; her legs went soft, and she almost collapsed onto the floor.

Fortunately, her quick reflexes allowed her to support herself against the nearby wall. Even so, her face was utterly pale, deathly pale.

If the Quinlan Family ran out of money, what would become of Ghania’s future?

...

Myles Sullivan and Ivy Wilmar also heard what the two of them were saying.

Myles Sullivan stubbed out the cigarette in his hand and walked over, asking his brother-in-law: ”What’s going on? Why is Pinecone Group suddenly asking you guys for money?”

Jeff Quinlan didn’t hide anything from him, responding directly: ”Mr. Ingram’s secretary said that we have offended someone.”

”Offended someone?” Myles Sullivan thought of Emilia Sullivan’s words just now, furrowed his brows tightly, and looked intensely: ”Are you saying Nathalie?”

”Yeah. That’s likely.”

”What exactly is Nathalie Quinlan’s relationship with Silvania Ingram of Pinecone Group? Wasn’t it because of your good relationship with Pinecone Group that she got to know Silvania Ingram? How did you fall out with them later, yet she maintains a good relationship with him?”

Not just Myles Sullivan, even Ivy Wilmar didn’t understand the mystery behind Nathalie Quinlan and Pinecone Group’s relationship.

Both of them thought that Nathalie got to know Silvania Ingram through the Quinlan Family’s connections. For some reason, the Quinlan Family had offended Ingram, causing a rift with Pinecone Group, but they still had a favorable impression of Nathalie and continued to protect her.

But, after all, it was Nathalie who climbed the social ladder through the Quinlan Family to reach Silvania Ingram.

Someone of Silvania Ingram’s rank would not get confused to this extent.

Ivy Wilmar also followed with a question: ”Right, Jeff. What exactly is going on between Nathalie and Pinecone Group? Why does Silvania Ingram constantly protect her?”

At this point, there wasn’t much point in Jeff Quinlan deceiving them anymore. He sighed deeply at first and then said with a look of desolation: ”I’m not clear about Nathalie’s relationship with Pinecone Group, but there is one thing I’m sure about, if I’m not mistaken: Pinecone Group’s decision to cooperate with us was probably related to Nathalie.”

Myles Sullivan doubted what he heard: ”You are saying Pinecone Group’s cooperation with the Quinlan Family is related to Nathalie?”

”How is that possible?” He furrowed his brows, completely disbelieving: ”Quinlan Real Estate started cooperation with Pinecone Group five years ago. How old was she back then? 13, or 14? Would Silvania Ingram cooperate with you guys for a teenage girl?”

”Isn’t it incredulous.” Jeff Quinlan gave a wry smile, looking into his eyes and said: ”The truth is that incredulous! I didn’t believe it at first either, but as Nathalie left the Quinlan Family, and subsequently fell out with us, Pinecone Group’s attitude also shifted along with hers. The day we fell out with Nathalie, Pinecone Group’s chairman told me something, hoping that I wouldn’t come to regret it in the future.”

Myles Sullivan: ”...”

Ivy Wilmar: ”...”

Amadeus Yancey had said the same thing before he left the hospital, hoping they would not regret their decision today.
