Mackenzie assured her.
After a moment of hesitation, Felicity took a deep breath and nodded.
“By the way, where’s Sarah?” Mackenzie finally asked.
“Sarah? Hasn’t she returned to the Quillen residence?” Felicity appeared even
more surprised than Mackenzie. “She didn’t follow me to the Lenoir residence.”
Mackenzie frowned in response. She had long suspected that Sarah was
hiding something. Sarah had claimed to be studying abroad, but Mackenzie
discovered that she never actually attended any university.
Now, she had taken the opportunity to leave the Quillen family. What could
she be secretly doing?
In the grand living room, Hannah was still anxiously waiting.
Finally, Samantha and Sophie arrived one after another.
“Has Felicity left?” Samantha angrily demanded as she stormed in.
“Not yet. Mackenzie has been talking to her for a long time.” Hannah crossed
her arms and snorted.
“What’s there for them to talk about when she audaciously brought people
over to fight us?! No matter what, that woman is not walking out of our door!”
Samantha’s temper was fiery, and her words were direct.
Alfred had been standing in the living room all this while, and he sighed with
deep regret upon hearing the Quillen sisters’ conversation.
At this moment, Mackenzie and Felicity emerged from the room and walked
down a corridor, still engrossed in conversation.

Felicity held her eldest daughter’s hand tightly, finding considerable solace.
“Mackenzie, you have really changed a lot after getting married!”
At that, Mackenzie smiled barely noticeably, making no comments.
Even Felicity noticed that her daughter had gained a touch of warmth and
humanity since getting married. She seemed less icy than before. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
“It seems that marriage can truly change us women!” Felicity mused aloud.
She had changed gradually from before she got married to after.
“Do you still oppose my marriage to Emmanuel, then?” Mackenzie countered.
Felicity sighed softly in response. “I certainly won’t outright support it. He
comes from a humble background and doesn’t match up to you in stature.
Moreover, this marriage doesn’t offer any advantages to the Quillen family…”
Pausing for a moment, she sighed again. “But if you really like him, I won’t stop
you..”
However, Mackenzie had a different perspective. “Felicity, don’t view a person
with an unchanging perspective, especially a man. Grandpa and
Great-grandpa started from the bottom and rose to success in adversity.
That’s why the Quillen family is what it is today, isn’t it?”
Felicity nodded, acknowledging the truth in Mackenzie’s words. However, she
didn’t believe that every man possessed the same ability and opportunities.
“Felicity, didn’t you take some funds from the Quillen family years ago and
start a branded clothing store? Since you haven’t been managing it for years,
and it’s already struggling, can you consider transferring it to me?” Mackenzie
suddenly brought up a third topic.
“What would you want to do with that small business, Mackenzie? Do you
have the time to manage it?”
Felicity was genuinely surprised. That small store was only worth a few
million. Even she didn’t find it worthwhile, so why would her daughter be interested?
