Seeing Miranda behaving so arrogantly, Heinz glanced at Jensen.
After that, Jensen smiled and asked exasperatedly, "Madam Scott, does Mr. Quell know how crass you can be?"
Miranda's withering glare was leveled at the two young men in front of her, and she tried hard to suppress her anger.
"It looks to me like you're trying very hard to make the Quell family your enemy," she said.
"Nope!" Heinz raised a finger and shook it gently as he said, "We have never thought of being enemies with the Quell family. We just want Marry to surrender to the law and accept the punishment that she deserves. Other than that, we want nothing else."
"Haha!" Miranda laughed mockingly. "It seems that you are determined to take revenge on Marry."
"Let's make it clear. It's Marry who should be punished by the law after what she did."
"It's all the same to me." Miranda said, "In that case, we have nothing to discuss."
She stood up as she spoke.
Heinz looked up at her and warned, "Madam Scott, you'd better think twice before you act."
"Heinz, I would say the same for you." Miranda replied, "I haven't done anything worthwhile for my daughter. I failed to take her with me when I divorced, so she was left to be abused by Candace in the Smith family."
"As far as I know, the treatment Marry received in the Smith family was much better than Grace and Alice's. Candace treated her better than her own daughters," Heinz argued as he felt that Miranda was too ignorant.
"That's what she should do." Miranda sneered and said, "Candace desperately wanted to be the third wheel between Anderson and I, so she should pay the price."
Heinz spoke, "Candace had paid the price, but what about Marry? After she reaped the benefits, she still tried her best to murder her sisters. Time and time again, she tried to hurt Grace and Alice. Shouldn't she pay the price as well?"
Miranda frowned at that.
Heinz gazed at Miranda coldly while adding, "Madam Scott, I hope everyone will obey the law. You don't have to try and game the judicial system, and I won't go to Mr. Quell."
"You want to see Mr. Quell?" Miranda snorted and said, "Do you think you can meet him whenever you want to?"
"Try me," Heinz answered flatly.
Miranda's gaze focused for a moment as she stared at him. She then took a deep breath and uttered, "Well, let's wait and see."
After that, she immediately left the room.
As soon as she left, Jensen stopped the recorder.
"Heinz, it's all recorded."
"Keep it. You don't have to use it unless it's absolutely necessary." Heinz didn't want to influence Mr. Quell's decision using these underhanded tactics.
"Do you think Mr. Quell is unaware of this?" Jensen asked as he still had some doubts.
"Yes." Heinz nodded and explained, "From what I know of Mr. Quell's character, he would never stoop so low. Miranda must have made use of his reputation for her personal gains."
Heinz was very certain about this.
Jensen was surprised at how well Heinz knew the other party's personality. "Heinz, why are you so confident in Mr. Quell?"
"Hugo Quell and I are friends." "Hugo?" Jensen was shocked and he questioned,
"Heinz, why didn't you tell me that you knew Hugo?"
Heinz chuckled as he rubbed his temples, looking a little tired. "No matter what I've done recently, the bad guys have gained the upper hand because of my kindness. I'm reflecting on the ramifications of what I've done, whether there's a deeper meaning to all of this?"
"It doesn't matter. Since you know Hugo, why are you still looking for Old Master Carter? Why don't you just meet with Hugo instead? He will pass a message to his father."
Jensen knew that Mr. Diego was Hugo's father.
