Quinn held Andrea’s hand and they slowly walked to the sofa and sat down.
After listening, he looked a bit serious.
“Things have come to this, we can only do our best to remedy the situation. The public opinion is in an uproar, which is not good for the reputation of both families.”
He glanced at Matilda’s red–rimmed eyes.
“It’s better to finalize the marriage as soon as possible, saying that the breakup before was just a rumor, this way we can also save face for the Turner family.”
Marvin’s expression softened a bit, but he still had a serious face.
“How should we the Turner family calculate the losses caused by this turmoil? Matilda has also suffered a lot of grievances!”
Quinn scanned Marvin’s tense jawline and suddenly chuckled.
“The Shillingford Group’s newly established renewable energy fund is willing to allocate 5% of the shares to the Turner Group for investment, with project returns settled three months ahead of schedule.
Marvin’s eyes flashed with a calculating light.
“Here you go, 10%.”
Quinn raised an eyebrow, a hint of disdain flickering in his eyes.

“Mr. Turner was asking for a lot of money? It’s good to be ambitious, but you also need to consider if you can handle it.”
Marvin was taken aback by his meaningful tone and immediately changed his mind.
“That’s 5%!”
Footsteps suddenly came from the stairs, Roderick slowly walked down, his silver–gray shirt collar slightly open, with a faint red mark on his neck.
His gaze landed straight on Quinn, with a hint of a mocking smile playing on his lips.
“Mr. Shillingford was enthusiastic, but some people were stirring the pot behind the scenes, isn’t that a bit ugly?”
Quinn paused with the tea cup in hand, a hint of darkness flickering in his amber eyes.
“Where did this come from, bro? I was just thinking about both families.”
“Thinking about both families?”
Roderick sneered and suddenly his gaze fell on the pitiful expression Matilda had carefully crafted.
“Ms. Turner’s performance, the more she acted, the more realistic it became.”
Marvin suddenly slammed the table, making the teacups rattle.
“Roderick! You ruined my daughter’s reputation, and now you dare to speak impolitely?”

Roderick glanced at Quinn holding Andrea’s hand, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes.
“What she did, she knows in her heart.”
“Arranged paparazzi in advance, bribed the media, and manipulated public opinion.”
“Roderick, why did you say that about me?”
Matilda looked up, her eyes hurt.
“Even if you don’t like me, you shouldn’t ruin my reputation like this.”
Lucian was so anxious that his forehead was bulging with blue veins.
“Roderick! No nonsense!”
He turned to Marvin.
“Mr. Turner calmed down. When young people have conflicts, it’s natural for us elders to mediate.”
“Tomorrow, Roderick and Matilda will hold a press conference together to clear up all misunderstandings, and then announce that the engagement will continue.”
Marvin’s eyes flickered.
“The new energy fund I just mentioned…”
Quinn spoke up at the right time.
“Said and done.”
Marvin was finally satisfied.
Quinn looked around the quiet living room and suddenly tightened

Andrea’s cold hand.
He looked Scarlett straight in the eye.
“Auntie, Andie and I came back today to get our household registration book. We want to go get married now.”
He paused, his voice steady and powerful, “I still hope you can fulfill it.”
One word blew up like thunder.
The living room fell into dead silence in an instant, and Roderick’s face visibly darkened and became more mysterious.
Scarlett’s smile froze for a moment at the corner of her lips, then she smiled gently again.
