The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 974

"Spit it out, will you? I'm swamped here."

Quincy didn't even bother to turn around, let alone invite him inside for a chat.

She just blocked Ronin at the doorstep. The aloofness on her face was unmistakable, not a hint of wanting to engage in further conversation.

"Quincy! Still holding a grudge, huh?" Ronin was somewhat aware of his daughter's temperament, especially after he had unilaterally decided to marry her off to the Lopezes, he knew he was in the wrong. So now, Ronin was swallowing his pride, trying to wear a smile, "Come on, you're not seriously thinking about cutting ties? Disowning your mom and dad?"

"Didn't we settle this already?"

"That was said in the heat of the moment! Blood ties can't just be cut off."

Quincy almost laughed out of frustration.

So, he was coming around now that Everett was willing to back her, thinking she still had some utility left, huh?

"Let me make it clear today, you'd better agree to cut ties and stop bothering me! Otherwise... if something happens to me one day, the Lopezes won't spare you either."

Quincy hadn't told her father about poisoning Dorothy, mainly because she knew just how greedy he could be! If he found out he could use the antidote to control Everett, who knows how much money he would demand from the Lopezes.

Though her actions were underhanded, she wasn't driven by greed. She just wanted her freedom.

"We're family! We share the good and the bad!" Ronin didn't catch the warning in Quincy's words, just assuming she was trying to ditch her old life now that she had climbed the social ladder.
