Chapter 273
Then, Quinton and Sara walked in. As the CEO of Harvey Group, his attendance was no surprise given the event's significance, but it was Sara's arrival that sparked a flurry of controversy. Trevon and Selina caught wind of Sara's recent mental struggles. Eyewitnesses reported seeing
ng Quinton, with Sara in his arms and Cora at his side. rushing to the hospital as they frantically sought a doctor. The Harvey Group had worked tirelessly to stifle any leaks about the incident. The clite guests at the party, all high-profile millionaires, were abuzz with rumors about the incident, but they had only hearsay to go on, lacking any tangible proof.
Quinton and Sara's hands were entwined, embodying a romance that was the talk of Sokovis high society. Everyone knew how much Quinton spoiled Sara. Their affection sparkled like a precious gem, drawing secret envy from many affluent women who compared their own husbands - rich and influential yet prone to infidelities.
The gossip about Sara's mental well-being was most likely a rumor. However, when her eyes landed on Selins and Trevon, her previously joyful. expression stiffened.
A contemptuous smile curled on Selina's lips as she imagined how Sara would react if she discovered that Quinton, whom she trusted implicitly, had once betrayed her and fathered an illegitimate daughter. Ashley, who Sara had lovingly embraced as her own. Meanwhile, the precious biological daughter Sara had longed for, the one meant to replace Selina, had tragically died the day she was born.
"Quinton... what a hypocrite! His obsession with his wife is nothing but a performance. He's managed to deceive everyone, and it's utterly disgusting. How dare he speak of love while he can't even control his own impulses? It's just his way of soothing his own conscience, Selina raged inwardly.
She softly urged Trevon, "Let's go."
"Aren't you tempted to stir the pot and enjoy the drama Trevon suggested.
He doubted Selina's forgiveness toward the Harvey family, given how often they had crossed her. He even fantasized about reducing their residence to rubble.
Not yet, Selina replied. There was no weapon more devastating than the information they held. Timing was everything if they wanted to play their
cards right
As Selina left. Sara instinctively felt compelled to follow. Before Quinton could act, Cora and Timothy approached them saying, "Quinton Sara, you're here. "Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Harvey, Timothy said, looking weary. With a patchy beard and noticeable dark circles, he looked like the years had taken their toll on him
Timothy had barely settled back into Sokovis and had taken on a major project, Clark Jewelry. Just as he was about to show his capabilities, Timothy found his ambitions crushed by Trevon and Selina. Facing significant losses, it was no surprise he appeared so disheartened
Despite Clark Group being a family enterprise. Timothy, as the heir apparent, had y listlessly, and if he were to rise to power eventually, he would face widespread resistance, possibly igniting factional disputes

Most importantly, Timothy's strategies had been unterly thwarted. Currently, his actions were constrained by the Clark Jewelry project, leaving him snuggling to formulate his next move.
"Kid. I know things have been tough. You're still young and brimming with talent. Your parents have high hopes for you. Stay persistent, and efforts will eventually bear fruit. Quinton said, offering a reassuring touch on Timothy's shoulder.

With a forced smile, Timothy responded, "I appreciate your words of comfort, Mr. Harvey. Though he had heard similar consolations before and understood it was time to let go, his pride made it difficult for him to navigate through his failure. He couldn't simply recover from the blow so swiftly
"Sara, let's take a look over there, Quinton suggested
"Sure." Sara responded, enining to her senses. She realized that pursuing Selina at that moment was inappropriate. That event was of great significance, and she needed to uphold her role as Mrs Bradly, for her every word and action represented Harvey Group, If she needed to confront Selina, it would need to be done privately
"By the way, where's Felix! Quinton inquired.

With the prestigious standing of Insight Group and the Brady family, along with Trevon and Selina's Brilliance, under her alias Angel, they had the power to outshine everyone in the jewelry design industry of Sokovis and Clusia
If not for Brilliance's relatively short history, it might already be a top player in Clusia, striking fear into long-established jewelry brands both domestically and internationally. Nevertheless, Insight Group remained unrivaled. Everyone watched helplessly as it expanded its influence, threatening to dominate and engulf the entire market,
Clark Jewelry, still in its infancy and having room to stand down, couldn't match the might of Brilliance despite its substantial investment. The only viable option was for Timothy to pivot to other ventures and abandon Clark Jewelry. Staying in the course would only lead them to a dead end.
Sara, feeling a pang of guilt, remarked, "I'm sorry you both have had such a hard time. If Manuel hadn't lost to Selina-"© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
"Don't blame yourself, Sara. This is all Selina's fault! She did not only help someone defeat her own brother, but she also put Timothy in a tough spot. Considering they were once engaged and our families have ties, she could've thought more broadly. She's evil!" Cora snapped.
Cora clenched her teeth as she recalled the Jewelry Design Contest for Sokovis - especially when Selina revealed her identity as Angel, promising Timothy that winning the contest would lead to a personal meeting and potential collaboration with her. Cora seethed inwardly. She was scheming against Timothy from the start! What a vicious woman!
"Cora, I'm deeply sorry. My initial neglect of Selina made her feel so awful, and our ties cut led everything to this. As her mother, I bear the responsibility for not trusting her or making an effort to understand her beyond the surface. I failed to reach out and let her truly connect with me." the mourned,
Sara felt as though her heart was being crushed by unseen hands, a wave of pain and suffocation overwhelming her, leaving her spirit on the brink of collapse.
