Crystal Joyce’s eyes grew increasingly dark as she discreetly pulled out a perfume bottle from her bosom and sprayed it towards Old Mrs. Quinn.
"Didn’t you, Grandma Quinn, previously say you didn’t want to see Serena? You also said you’d never accept Serena as your granddaughter-in-law and that you wanted me to..."
At this point, Crystal Joyce showed a perfectly timed display of girlish shyness and stopped speaking.
The butler, seeing this, quickly chimed in supportively, "Yes, yes, ma’am, you clearly said you wanted Miss Crystal to be your gentle and kind granddaughter-in-law! You also mentioned that Master Damian should hurry up and marry Miss Crystal!"
Old Mrs. Quinn again caught that strange scent, but she was engulfed by a refreshing aroma that cleared her mind, no longer allowing her to be manipulated.
"You’re talking nonsense! When did I ever say such things?!"
She even burst out swearing, showing just how angry Old Mrs. Quinn was.
Upon hearing these words, Crystal Joyce’s face suddenly changed, her eyes widening in disbelief as she looked at Old Mrs. Quinn.
This... How could this be possible! She had clearly intensified the Soul Hooking Fragrance on her, but why did it stop affecting this meddlesome old woman?!
As the words fell, Old Mrs. Quinn felt a faint headache and started to recall the events of the past few days.
She had actually threatened with her life, forcing Damian and Serena to call off their engagement!!!
Old Mrs. Quinn suddenly panicked, quickly reaching out to tightly grasp Serena’s arm, "Serena darling, I don’t know what came over me in the past few days to make such a brainless decision!
I forbid you and Damian to break off your engagement, you are the granddaughter-in-law I recognize! Boohoo, if you and Damian break up, I won’t live anymore!" The source of thɪs content is novᴇlfire.net
Such a good granddaughter-in-law, ruined by her own doing, she felt she deserved to die for it!
Seeing Old Mrs. Quinn in such a state, Serena calmly spoke, "Don’t worry, grandma, we’re not breaking off the engagement, it was just an act."
Old Mrs. Quinn breathed a sigh of relief, but before she could feel happy, she remembered the way she treated Serena over the past few days and regretted pulling her hands apologetically.
"Serena darling, I don’t know what possessed me the past few days, like I was bewitched. Grandma apologizes to you, can you forgive me?"
Serena had rushed back from Yondale to save her; if not for Serena, her life would have been gone! Such a good granddaughter-in-law, yet she had treated her so poorly and even forced her to break off the engagement with Damian!
Just thinking about these made Old Mrs. Quinn feel overwhelming guilt.
"Grandma, it’s not your fault."
Serena gently reassured her before her cold eyes fell on Crystal Joyce.
"Someone is behind the scenes causing mischief."
Facing Serena’s gaze, Crystal Joyce felt as if everything had been seen through by her, but she quickly denied it in her heart.
Impossible! That bitch Serena couldn’t possibly know! The Soul Hooking Fragrance had long been lost, and its effects and uses were scarcely known!
It must be that she hadn’t used enough Soul Hooking Fragrance on Old Mrs. Quinn, which caused that meddlesome old woman to suddenly become sober now!
All because she was too kind-hearted, knowing that overuse of the Soul Hooking Fragrance had severe side effects, so she only increased the dose on Old Mrs. Quinn little by little instead of giving a large dose all at once!
Crystal Joyce gripped the perfume bottle tightly, her eyes gleaming with malice.
Today, she wouldn’t just continue controlling Old Mrs. Quinn; no one present would escape!
Given the opportunity, she could manipulate Damian Quinn to fall in love with her and be with her forever!
