Chapter 292: 292
In the long table, were seated are the FIVE FAMILIES .
The Williams, The Montfort, The Bennett, The Bastien, The De La Rue — the aristocrat families .
This includes the Young Family and Nicholas Crow .
During the meal, they talk random stuff while Quinn and Cassie often exchange glances across the dining table . Levi who seated next to Quinn notices this, and so, he repeatedly jokes on Quinn by taking his food, and he would instantly figure out who took it; the two then argue like little kids .
Cassie would only laugh at this, amused at them . She stretched her legs, and she hit someone's foot . Quinn glanced at her lovingly; blushing as she met his eyes . She understood it was Quinn's foot .
She remembers that Quinn only wore house slippers, as for Levi; who readied to go to office today, he was on his suit and tie paired to black shoes . Quinn and she looked at each other intimately as their foot rubbing — touching each other underneath the dining table .
Then, someone's fork drop on the floor, instantly their foot parted and act casual .
Cassie looks down on her plate and returns to eating silently while Quinn trying to pay attention every time someone called for him to ask something or by their parents about random stuff .
Then, a wonderful breakfast ended later on . . .
Cassie was trailing in the hallway when she saw Quinn . She was about to call him; Then he opened the door to the library in this mansion, and she saw Chairman Nicholas entered the room before him . She assumes that they will talk about the business since Uncle Nicholas is the owner of the corporation Quinn managing: surely, they will discuss a lot of things regarding the company .
Inside the library is Quinn following silently .
"Let us sit, Quinn . " Nicholas gestured the empty sofas .
"Now, what do you want to know?" He asked after they both settled on the chair .
"I will go straight to the point, Uncle . Who is this Lady Isabella Bennett?" He began asking .
Nicholas stared at Quinn for a long moment, then he sighed .
"Okay . You probably heard it from Levi, I will guess this one . "
"How about Madison Moore? Do you know her as well?" Quinn added .
The chairman takes a moment of silence before he answered to Quinn, "Yes . I know her and everything about her family . "
"Then my parents knew her too?"
"No one from the Williams knew, but the Montfort's only kept this secret . "
"Uncle Edward? Then Uncle Hendrick know as well?" He continues asking .
" Yes . It was the Montfort legacy, to watch over them . " Said, Nicholas .
"How could you hide this to us? Especially to me?" Quinn's voice is a bit accusing this time .
And so Nicholas sighed once again . "Quinn, I did not mean to hide this from your family . You are my heir . Eventually, you will know about this from me at the right time . Particularly the time you replace me . And that was sooner . " Nicholas explained .
"Just happen, Edward's death is so sudden . Yet, Levi not trained enough and informed enough . " He added .
"How could you hide this to our family for a long time?"
"I'm sorry Quinn . Lady Isabella has in full control, we have agreements . It's been a long time since the last time you were born, everyone just waited for that day, so then, Lady Isabella could fulfil her goal once you both reincarnate once again . "
"Is that so? So, are you saying that everything is actually because of me? There is a connection with me?"
"Partly yes, but she more looking after for Cassandra . "
"Then, you have a connection with her . "
