Chapter 1370 A Woman’s Grudge
The Quillen family had just submitted their membership application and were not yet officialmembers of the chamber of commerce.
“Emmanuel, are you going?”
Mackenzie glanced at Emmanuel and sensed that the invitation was not specifically for her.
“Since the president’s invitation is for the Quillen family, the head of the family should make thedecision!” Emmanuel replied with a slight smile.
She nodded in agreement. President Silverbane’s invitation was a rare occurrence, so regardless ofthe target, they should attend to see what he wanted.
Mackenzie instructed Lexi and Beatrix to return home first, while she and Emmanuel headed tomeet Stanley.
Lexi sensed something unusual that day, especially when Aidan glanced at Zaiden subconsciouslywhen Mackenzie went up on stage. She knew that the matter must be related to the Summertonfamily.
Although she rarely paid attention to the Summerton family’s affairs, the involvement of the TerenceGroup in the day’s events compelled her to take action.
She decided to visit Zaiden’s house alone and waited at the door. After a while, she spotted Zaidenand his wife stepping out of a car.
“Uncle Zaiden, Aunt Althea!”
“Lexi, is that you? It’s been a while!”
Zaiden greeted Lexi warmly while embodying the demeanor of an uncle meeting his niece.
On the other hand, Althea appeared colder than before. She harbored displeasure toward Lexi forleaving the Summerton family’s business to work for the Quillen family in Yeringham. However,since Lexi was not her daughter, she was unable to take any action.
Now, because of her hatred for the Lowe siblings and her resentment toward the Quillen family, shenaturally had an even worse attitude toward Lexi!
“Uncle Zaiden, did you do something in the chamber of commerce? Why are you targeting theQuillen family? Is there a conflict between you?”
Lexi, known for her gentle nature, maintained a polite tone even while questioning Zaiden.
Julian coincidentally emerged from the house and observed the trio conversing at the door. Hediscreetly eavesdropped, assuming that Lexi had visited for a significant reason.
“Lexi, I had no other choice!”
Zaiden sighed and admitted that he did not anticipate Aidan’s actions toward the Quillen family’sapplication.
“Could you provide an explanation? If you are compelled, I will convey it to Ms. Quillen. Our familiescould form an alliance and collaborate in the future. It is unwise for you to create unnecessaryenemies!”
She considered not only Zaiden but also her own interests and the Summerton family’s well-being.Despite the Quillen family’s non-membership status, their possession of the Heart of the Sun
indicated significant potential. Making a wrong choice could lead to regret in the future for theSummerton family.

“Hmph! Are we intentionally making enemies? The Quillen family is simply inviting trouble uponthemselves!” Althea interjected before her husband could elaborate.
“Aunt Althea, what do you mean by that? The Quillen family has never wronged the Summertonfamily!”
Lexi expressed her confusion.
Julian also shared the sentiment. He was puzzled by his mother’s sudden hostility toward theQuillen family.
“Hmph! You claim they have not wronged us? The Quillen family is nothing but a nuisance! Theiractions are impacting the Summerton family negatively!”
Althea exclaimed angrily, “Mackenzie is coddling her husband, a married man, and even seducingAshton. It’s disgusting, isn’t it? And as for Emmanuel’s sister, she’s even more shameless! I don’tknow how she managed to bewitch my son. I wish I could eliminate them!”
Lexi suddenly realized it! So, it was a woman’s grudge!
“Aunt Althea, there seems to be a misunderstanding here!”
Lexi wasn’t here to argue or accuse. She was here to resolve the grievances between the twofamilies. She explained patiently, “I know Emmanuel and Roselynn quite well. They both have veryupright values and would never engage in the behavior you’re accusing them of!”
“Bah!”
Althea was like many women. The more others spoke in their favor, the more convinced they wereright. She said with a self-righteous attitude, “I saw it with my own eyes. How could it be fake?”
Julian finally couldn’t take it anymore. He strode out of the mansion and retorted, “Mom, what didyou see with your own eyes? Did you see Roselynn seducing me? Why didn’t I see it myself?You’re just talking nonsense!”
