Chapter 313 Farewell
Fiona had never seen Naomi so angry. When Naomi returned to the Quinnell villa that night, she flung her favorite vase of roses onto the
floor and shattered it. Fiona wanted to stop her but held back out of
fear.
She wondered what had happened at the Quinnell residence to incur
Naomi’s wrath. But who could she ask?
Fiona also found it odd that Shane had not returned with Naomi even
though he was the one who had brought her to the Quinnell residence
to discuss her adoption with Fabian.
Curiosity got the better of Fiona, and she took it upon herself to seek
the answers to her questions.
She had established a network of intelligence after serving in the Quinnell family for so long, and her sources included Shane’s drive
who happened to be her cousin. She was the one who had gotten hin
the job in the first place.
Fiona demanded of him anxiously, “What happened at the main
residence?”
Her cousin spoke in hushed, secretive tones on the other line. “Fiona, I just dropped Mr. Quinnell off at the hotel. From what I heard during his phone call, his long-lost daughter has apparently been found.”
“What?” Fiona shrieked in disbelief. She pressed a hand to her chest as she felt palpitations. “What do you mean she’s been found? That’s impossible!”

“I’m serious, Fiona,” came her cousin’s nervous reply. “Mr. Quinnell
Senior didn’t even tell Mr. Quinnell until the last minute. The long-lost
Ms. Quinnell will be coming home in two days.
“Promise me you’ll take this to the grave. And you didn’t hear about
this from me. I’ll talk to you some other time, Fiona. You’d better
make preparations.”
Fiona knew what preparations her cousin was talking about. All these
years, the Quinnell family had exhausted their resources and
connections looking for their long-lost heiress.
Now that she had been found, Naomi’s adoption would become an impossibility.
Fiona had taken care of Naomi for years, and she was so happy to learn that Naomi was going to become an official member of the Quinnell family.
