The Unveiling of Secret Queen

Alfred Garland also chimed in, speaking straight-laced beside him: ”Mr. Vinson, you’re not mistaken. This brand is under Ms. Quinlan’s name. Just some time ago, the Pinecone Group sent Ms. Quinlan quite a few new products, but since Ms. Quinlan usually doesn’t like wearing them, they all piled up in our villa’s storage room.”

”Oh.” Sadam Vinson deliberately glanced at Mrs. Davidson and Leony Davidson, and said in surprise, ”It’s not second-hand?”

Alfred Garland knew his character too well and immediately followed up: ”Mr. Vinson, what are you talking about? Ms. Quinlan doesn’t even wear all her new items, how could she possibly use second-hand ones.”

”I see.” Sadam Vinson patted his head, smiling as he looked at Mrs. Davidson and Leony Davidson: ”My apologies, you two. Our Nathalie doesn’t care for second-hand goods. Why don’t you take back the brooch? Even if she wanted such things, regardless of the brand, I could give them to her. It’s just a brooch. Our family is poor, but we can barely afford it.”

The Vinson Family is famously wealthy in Beijing!

Sadam Vinson grew up in luxury. Anyone in Beijing knows that Mr. Vinson never lacks money.

A brooch worth nearly a million might seem like one yuan or two to Sadam Vinson. His usual act of calling himself poor is just lip service, a bit of entertainment.

Truly, he doesn’t lack money.

But children from families of a rank like the Vinson Family, even if they don’t lack money, don’t flaunt wealth like nouveau riche.

His remark about being ’poor’ was clearly to mock Mrs. Davidson and Leony Davidson, to needle them and make them uncomfortable.

Moreover, Sadam Vinson is very protective.

He couldn’t bear to see Nathalie Quinlan suffer grievances, let alone tolerate outsiders making moves to disgust Nathalie Quinlan.

Amadeus Yancey showed more restraint, just that his deep black eyes fixed on Mrs. Davidson and Leony Davidson, with his smile fading slightly at the corners of his mouth: ”Perhaps it’s not about lacking money.”

If someone doesn’t lack money yet sends second-hand gifts to congratulate others — it can only mean one thing: they fundamentally look down on the recipient!

Mrs. Davidson awkwardly explained: ”I’m sorry, I brought the wrong gift.”

Leony Davidson clenched her fists tighter, feeling humiliated and nearly ready to retort.

”Sister-in-law, did you really bring the wrong gift?”

Marcella Davidson, who once entered the research institute and laboratory, wasn’t foolish at all; she simply endured the Davidson Family over the years.

Mrs. Davidson was her sister-in-law.

As long as Mrs. Davidson wasn’t too excessive, she generally tolerated it.

But this time, Marcella Davidson was utterly disappointed with Mrs. Davidson.

When she looked at Mrs. Davidson again, her emotions were much calmer, and she said blandly: ”I’ll have Kenzie send you back.”

”Marcella!” Mrs. Davidson was shocked and hastily tried to defend her behavior.

Marcella Davidson clearly didn’t want to pay her any attention, tersely saying: ”Let me make it clear today. How I arrange my things is my business. The Davidson Family has no right to interfere. Even if the Old Lady comes, she can’t interfere, let alone you and my brother!”

Mrs. Davidson’s expression changed, her face twitching severely.

Marcella Davidson had never spoken so harshly before.

This time she completely left no room for dignity.

”Furthermore, I gave Leony a chance, and she didn’t pass. In the research institute, she has reached her limit. Even if I teach her, this is as far as she can go. You need not think about those things; even if she got my things, she still couldn’t learn it.”

If previously, those words could leave Leony Davidson indifferent.

Marcella Davidson’s public statement that her progress in the research institute could only go so far was utterly unacceptable to Leony Davidson, causing her to lose control slightly and ask, ”What about her?”
