CHAPTER 167: CHAPTER 171 THE END

Hearing him say that, she breathed a sigh of relief and wasn’t worried about tomorrow’s matters anymore. She continued to eat her breakfast-turned-lunch.

Meanwhile, on the other side, the school director who just called Mabel Quinn was now dialing Lyra Grant’s mother, Ella Gilbert’s number, "Yes, yes, I’ve done everything you instructed. Rest assured about the school’s side of things, tomorrow Mabel Quinn will definitely be expelled."

Ella Gilbert hung up the phone satisfied, and Lyra Grant asked beside her, "Mom, how did it go?"

"What do you think? With your mom handling it, of course, it’s done," Ella Gilbert said, "But let’s not let your dad know about this for now, lest he starts complaining again." The last time she bribed an editor, she got severely scolded by her husband after he found out.

Lyra Grant nodded repeatedly, "By the time Mabel Quinn is expelled, and this gets spread by the media, I’m afraid Morningstar won’t want to employ a scriptwriter like her. I don’t even know why Dad is worried, it’s just Mabel Quinn, what’s there to be afraid of! Mom’s the best for helping me."

"Of course. You’re my daughter. If I don’t help you, who will?"

"But Mom, what if the person involved with Mabel Quinn isn’t just some old man? What if Mabel Quinn actually found herself a wealthy boyfriend?" Lyra Grant still remembered Soren mentioned before that he saw a young man getting into a car with Mabel Quinn.

"Ha, silly child, do you really think those rich men would settle for just one woman? Just look at your aunt; even now, she’s still just a mistress to the Quinn Family’s second son. With what Mabel Quinn is facing now, with such a scandal, those rich guys would hide as fast as they could. Besides, even if something’s white, we can make it black!" Ella Gilbert said, as a woman, such tactics were second nature to her.

Lyra Grant laughed, getting cozy with her mother again, her heart full of anticipation for tomorrow. Tomorrow... there would be a good show to watch!

At night, Caleb had gathered all the gossip about Mabel Quinn being kept and submitted it to Kyle Kinston, including the previous phone call the director made to Mabel Quinn, noting his good relationship with Lyra Grant’s mother, Ella Gilbert, and that he had received many gifts from the Grant Family after Lyra Grant enrolled.

Additionally, the school’s bulletin board, monitored nearby, recorded Lyra Grant entering the school within a certain time frame, and leaving minutes later.

It was clear that these matters were tricks played by Lyra Grant and her mother.

Below these investigative reports, there was an asset sheet for the Grant Family. The Grants owned twelve properties in prime locations, with a combined market value of over 50 million, and other stocks and bank deposits exceeded 20 million.

The Grant Family had been a small household, but after Joseph Grant’s sister, Camille Grant, became a mistress to Christopher Quinn, the second son of the main Quinn Family, and bore him a son and daughter, their situation improved. Joseph Grant managed to become a high-level executive with the Quinn Family’s help, but Christopher was only the second son and did not hold power, and Camille was still just a mistress, so it’s questionable if she can provide her brother with such assets.

"Investigate how the Grant Family’s assets came to be," Kyle Kinston said lazily.

"Understood," Caleb replied, understanding that Joseph Grant’s position might be at its end.
