Chapter 225

Shannon sat upright on the sofa in the living room. She took a sip of coffee, which had been sent upby a servant, and looked around the hall.

This was the Quentiner Villas. Most of the people living here were rich people.

The Moore family could live here because her great–grandfather had bought a few villas here whenhe was at his peak.

The renovation was in the traditional style, luxurious and domineering. It suited Quintin’s state ofmind.

She looked out of place sitting there, but she was poised.

Seeing that they had arrived, Shannon stood up and greeted them, “Mr. and Mrs. Moore.

The few of them looked at her in shock.

She was wearing a beige knitted jumper and denim pants, which added up to less than 40 dollars.However, she was fair and beautiful, with shoulder–length hair and thin air bangs. She was neitherservile nor overbearing, exuding the delicate beauty of a young girl.

There were two boxes of expensive gifts on the table. She had brought them

She did not look shabby at all. The way the Moore couple looked at her also became more formal.

Leona gritted her teeth hard as a dark light flashed in her eyes. Then, she went forward, so happyand excited that tears were about to flow out. “Sister, it’s so good to have you back. We’ve allmissed you so much. If you could call theen Daddy and Mommy, they would be even happier,”

As she spoke, she went to hug her, as if they were close sisters

Shannon gently stepped back and avoided her. Tm sorry, we’re not related by blood. I’m not yoursister.”

Leona’s face instantly turned pale.

Jessie helped Quintin sit down. “We’re already very happy that you’re back.”

They didn’t care whether she called them her parents or not

Her gaze fell on the gift box. “This is your home. You don’t have to bring gifts honse.”

Shannon said, “I saw that Mr. Moore’s condition wasn’t good. These two supplements are effective,so I specially brought them here.”

“Sister. Leona had just opened her mouth when she was interrupted by Shannon.

Shannon’s cyes were filled with anger. Tve already said that I’m not your sister. Do you notunderstand, or have you always been arrogant and disregarded others?”

Leona’s face went white again, then red. It burned, more painfully than if she was slapped. “I… I’mvery happy. Since you don’t like it, I won’t call you that

“You’re a freshman. It’s already very difficult for you to take care of yourself, but you borrowedmoney to buy such an expensive gift. What will happen to your life in the future? Shannon, you’dbetter come back. The Moore couple’s expressions were a little ugly. When they thought about howShannon borrowed money from Lea and the others to buy gifts to curry favor, they were unhappy.

Shannon’s expression turned cold. “I bought the gift with my own salary”

The three of them were shocked again.

“Salary?” Leona deliberately raised her voice. How much can a part–time worker like you earn amonth.

She felt that Shannon was lying.

“Not everyone is like Miss Moore, who needs family support to afford branded clothes andtreasures Shannon exuded self–confidence from the Inside out

Without looking at her anymore, Shannon turned to the Moore couple. I’m here because I learnedthat Riverview Hospital’s new smart heart assister is helpful to Mr. Moore. If you’re interested, youshould go learn about it.

“Riverview Hospital!” Leona raised her voice again and felt that she had heard a joke. She snorted.“How can a hospital that hasn’t even opened its doors develop a cardiac aid?”

Not only did Leona not believe it, but even the Moore couple felt that Shannon was talkingnonsense,

Shannon stood up with a cold expression. “I have something on. I’ll be leaving first.”

Chapter 225

She gave Leona a cold look before turning around and striding out

She had left because she was angry with her.

“Shannon, Shannon. Jessie reacted and chased after her.

Shannon took the initiative to come to her door. This was such a rare opportunity, and Jessiewanted to make her stay.

However, when she reached the door, she saw a tall young man opening the car door for Shannon

The car was an Audi huxury car that belonged to Chris. She had a lot of cars, so she casuallyplaced a couple in the hospital for everyone to use.

The young man’s powerful skills and aura made Jessie not dare to chase after Shannon and forceher to stay.

Seeing them get into the car and drive out of the villa, her expression darkened. She turned toLeona, who was sitting on the sofa, and said. “You just had to talk so much.”

She knew that Shannon was driven away by Leona

This was the first time Jessie realized that the outstanding daughter she had meticulously raisedwas incompetent and spoilt

Leona’s expression changed. It alternated between green and white. “Mom, I’m sorry, I… I was justworried about Dad. You’ve seen what level Riverview Hospital is at. Isn’t she obviously foolingDad? Moreover, she refused to come back with us yesterday. Today, she suddenly came andbought such an expensive gift. I don’t know what she wants to do Dad, Mom, does Shannon reallywant to come back?

Quintin and Jessie were naturally suspicious. Hearing Leona say this, their hearts immediatelytrembled.

Quintin, in particular, could not help but clench his fists,

The bloodline of the Moore family was qualified to inherit the family and share the assets.

As his daughter, Shannon was able to get into Conrad University after growing up in such a poorenvironment. Her strength could not be underestimated.

In his heart, she was a threat.

Jessie was also shocked. As early as a week ago, when they received the hospital certificate andconfirmed that Shannon was their child, they had learned about this person from Leona.

Shannon had grown up in such an environment and had even been arrested by the police. If itweren’t for her husband’s bone marrow transplant, Jessie wouldn’t have acknowledged thisdaughter.

She felt that recognizing Shannon would only be a burden. It would be harmful to the Moore familyand would affect her status in the Moore family. Thinking of this. her anger towards Leonadissipated.

Leona looked at their reactions and was very satisfied.

At eleven o’clock in the evening, after a busy day, Leona returned to her bedroom exhausted andprepared to rest.

She freshened up, changed into her pajamas, and went to draw the curtains.

The curtains were drawn. She jerked and pulled them open again with a whoosh.

Someone was standing in the small garden downstairs, looking up at her.

Her heart sank and she shivered as if she had fallen into a bottomless abyss.
