eading Juicy Gossip in Her Mind Chapter 369 Not Kind Sarah didnât mind and even chuckled lightly, showing concern for the elderâs health.
Others found it a bit peculiar, but considering she was of advanced maternal age, they didnât feel it was their place to comment.
Davidâs family, on the other hand, managed to enjoy some fresh gossip.
Unbelievable. Aunt Joanna and Dylan wanted to bring that twoâfaced woman to our family dinner, but Uncle Eric refused, so they got angry and didnât show up. Do they really think they deserve such respect? Sarahâs divorce and Ninaâs decision to change her surname have nothing to do with outsiders. They even had the audacity to suggest bringing someone else. Itâs just nonsensical.
Davidâs family looked contemptuous after hearing the truth.
Recalling the recent investigation results, Alexander remembered that Cecilia was indeed a child from the orphanage funded by Joanna. It was through this connection that Dylan had come to know her.
However, Joannaâs relationship with Cecilia was far from ordinary. It wasnât just about providing for an orphan; she treated Cecilia as her adopted daughter. She cared for her incessantly, constantly sending her money. This was something Eric was oblivious to. After all, he was not one to concern himself with household matters. His focus was solely on his business.
If not for the historical context, Alexander would have suspected that Cecilia might be another illegitimate child.
However, Alexander still insisted on prioritizing the investigation into Ceciliaâs biological parents. If it wasnât related to Ceciliaâs parents, there was no reason for Joanna to act so outrageously.
Of course, besides this, Alexander also inadvertently discovered a secret that Isabella had never delved into.
For instance, the reason Dylan was so protective of Cecilia was because Cecilia was already his.
The records of their private encounters had been compiled and handed over to Alexander.
Alexander had no interest in exposing their relationship. After all, both were openly single. However, if she intended to become the adopted daughter of the Quirk family, these records would serve as the most compelling evidence against it.
Eric asked how Janiceâs stay had been these past few days, implying subtly if she wanted to return home. Joanna and Dylan had suggested that he bring Janice. back with him, but he was hesitant to voice it out, preferring to hear his daughterâs thoughts on it.
In the past, Janice would certainly have gone along with her familyâs arrangements. However, now, she lifted her head and said, âNo⦠Iâll spend more time with my cousins. Itâs rare for them to visit, and there are only a few days left of the holiday. Soon, Iâll have to return to school, so I wonât have much time to spend with them.â
She would rather give her time to her relatives than her family.
Eric had finally come to understand that their family had significant issues. When he found some free time, he decided he should have a serious talk with his daughter.

At that moment, her phone vibrated. She carefully took it out, fearing that she would see messages of reprimands and curses from her mother and brother.
But with just a glance, she couldnât help but let a smirk tug at the corners of her mouth.
It was her boyfriend, Cody.
As he was abroad, they hadnât been in touch for a few days until now.
The message read: What are you up to? Why are you picking on Cecilia? Youâre the young lady of the Quirk family. and sheâs just a poor orphan. Canât you stand to see her doing well? I donât like this side of you. Itâs not kind. Youâve disappointed me. I hope this is the last time something like this happens. Donât interfere with your fatherâs decision to adopt Cecilia anymore. Go home with your father today, correct your mistakes, and together, find a way to have the Quirk family adopt Cecilia.
Janice froze. Since she started dating Cody, there were occasional moments when he would criticize her in such a harsh tone. Those instances always left her feeling upset, leading her to introspect and question herself relentlessly. After all, her mother and brother both favored Cecilia, but only Cody had chosen her.
She felt that all she had left was Cody.
However, just as she was consumed by a desire to immediately call back and apologize, she heard laughter echoing from the living room.
âIâm the young lady of the Quirk family. Thereâs no way Nina and I could be in the wrong. The fault must lie with them! Youâll see soon enough. The PR of Quirk Groupâs branch office isnât to be underestimated. Just wait for the show to begin,â Sarah said arrogantly.
Janice was taken aback, recalling the scenes she had witnessed over the past few days.
