CHAPTER 85: CHAPTER 85: I WANT MY SISTER TO BE HAPPY

Claire Sullivan glanced at Zoe Quinn clinging to her, then turned to look at Joel Quinn, who was dressed neatly with a gentle smile, feeling very satisfied.

This was the life she had always dreamed of.

A husband whom she loved and who loved her, a beautiful, obedient, and well-behaved daughter, a harmonious and happy family. Before meeting Joel Quinn, she and Serena Sullivan relied on each other for survival, but because the old master was in poor health, she had to manage The Sullivan Corporation and attend social events, which she did not like and hated very much.

It was Joel Quinn who brought new vitality to her life; he was the one who allowed her to taste the feeling of being loved.

"Mom!"

Zoe Quinn’s call brought back Claire Sullivan’s thoughts, and Claire responded gently, "What’s wrong, Zoe?"

Upon knowing Joel Quinn had a daughter, Claire Sullivan was somewhat worried about whether she could make Zoe Quinn like her.

Unexpectedly, just after they got married, Zoe Quinn happily said that she had always wanted to have a mom and could call her "Mom."

Claire Sullivan liked Zoe Quinn’s obedience, and as time went on, Serena Sullivan’s rebellion and defiance made her increasingly favor the gentle Zoe Quinn.

"Mom, did you meet with Sister?"

Zoe Quinn knew that Ethan Grant wanted Serena Sullivan. The man with the surname Ethan was not only flirtatious but also cruel and deviant towards disobedient women. Zoe Quinn felt he was perfectly matched with Serena.

"Hmm!"

Claire Sullivan heard Zoe Quinn ask about this matter and just assumed she was concerned about Serena.

"Then later, can I see Sister?"

In the evening, she had arranged to dine with Ethan and intended to take the opportunity to match Serena and Ethan together.

No need for any arrangement; when Ethan saw a beautiful woman, he couldn’t help but go towards her. Serena wouldn’t be able to escape once she fell into his hands.

"She’s not coming."

Thinking of Serena, Claire Sullivan spoke with a dull voice.

"What!" Zoe Quinn exclaimed excitedly, looking unhappily at Claire Sullivan, "What’s wrong with you! Can’t even bring one person over."

Inattentively, Zoe Quinn shouted out the words buried in her heart.

Having endured hardship since childhood, Zoe Quinn appeared gentle and weak on the surface, but that wasn’t the case inside. She resented and envied Serena Sullivan to the point where she often couldn’t control her emotions.

"Zoe, I..."

The shout made Claire Sullivan’s heart drop, and upon sizing up Zoe Quinn’s face, seeing the malice and indifference in her eyes, Claire Sullivan stood there in shock, unable to recover.

"Zoe!"

Nearby, Joel Quinn spoke, lowering his voice to rebuke Zoe Quinn, who was immersed in anger and frustration, "How are you talking to your mom!"

Zoe Quinn saw the stern look in Joel Quinn’s eyes, realized she misspoke again; her eyes blinked, and tears started falling, "Mom, I’m sorry, I am just too worried about Sister’s future."

"The way she is now, living alone in the future, what can be done!"

Zoe Quinn sobbed, and her words pierced Claire Sullivan’s heart.

No matter how angry Claire Sullivan was at Serena Sullivan, she was, after all, her daughter.

As a mother, she wished Serena would have someone to care for her, but that someone definitely couldn’t be Ethan Grant.

Not just because of Zoe Quinn and Ethan Grant’s relationship.

"Ethan may be absurd, but those are just rumors. He’s liked Sister for five to six years and would treat her well."

What liking, more like having his mind set on Serena Sullivan.

Claire Sullivan had heard of Ethan’s deeds, but only heard.

She wasn’t determined to pair Serena with Ethan, just giving it a try.
