Chapter 567 The Brothers Dominated the Scene,
“The Quinnell family is quite mysterious. I suspect there’s something fishy going on. But it’s strange, if
it?”
Mrs. Quinnell is fine now, why hasn’t her husband mentioned
“Yeah, very strange indeed. Mr. Quinnell had always portrayed himself as a doting husband, yet he seems
oblivious to his wife’s recovery.”
All those present were sharp–minded, especially the women who despised men who pretended to be extremely loving but were actually absent husbands.
“Now I’m starting to think there’s something fishy about Shane’s insistence on adopting that little girl, Naomi.”
Seeing the situation, Shane hurriedly wanted to intervene. In fact, when Marie arrived, he wanted to take
control of the situation, as he did before.
But his three sons left him no room.
“I am your father!” Shane roared in frustration, losing his composure completely.
Sebastian chuckled lightly. “You don’t have to be. As long as my mom is happy, I can be her lawyer.”
As soon as he said this, it was as if their trump card was revealed.
Previously, with Marie absent, the three brothers had been somewhat restrained. They feared their
actions might sadden their mother if their father reacted badly.
But now, it seems unnecessary. It turns out that their mother was also on their side.
The entire room was stunned.
“What does Sebastian mean?”
“What else could it mean? He’s advocating for his parents‘ divorce.”
If Shane really divorced, all the relationships he had worked so hard to maintain would be destroyed in an
instant.
“You–you!” Shane was so angry he almost spat blood. Sebastian had been at odds with him since
childhood, always scheming against him. Now, it was even worse.
“Watch your image. Your shareholders are all watching,” Sebastian reminded him.
Shane narrowed his eyes and clenched his fists. “Is it because Sevie has spoken to you all? She’s young and full of resentment. You’re all adults, yet you listen to her!”
“Mr. Quinnell.” Elliot, who usually spoke the least, finally spoke up. He glanced around at everyone. “What transpired today was initially a family matter for the Quinnell family.”
“My younger sister is someone who wouldn’t even cry out in pain if she were wronged. She never complains. Perhaps our father, Mr. Quinnell, isn’t even aware of this.
“When I was in the village, I was on the brink of death in a cellar. If it weren’t for my younger sister, I would
have perished long ago.
“She saved my life,” Elliot stated.
This revelation was being disclosed to the public for the fir
time.

“Mr. Quinnell, I must ask you this. Who is truly your biological daughter?” Elliot questioned.
“And to the rest of you, do not think you can manipulate my younger sister using notions of filial piety. Today, it’s me, Elliot, who is questioning him,” Elliot declared, fixing his gaze on Shane. “You hardly seem like a father at all.”
“You know best what caused my mother’s illness. And that sponsee by your side, I’ve never acknowledged her from the start,” he added.
Sebastian chimed in at the right moment. “I’ve never acknowledged her either. How dare she act like she’s close to me?”
With that, he turned to Naomi. “Wendy is your friend, so sticking up for her sounds reasonable. But what kind of nonsense did she spout?”
