Love at the Wrong Table
Chapter 1087 The Quillen Familyâs Row
âWhen have you ever cared about me? Now you want to interfere in my affairs?â Terence coldly reprimanded his daughters.
The daughters didnât dare to argue.

Hearing that, Hannah sneered, âWho said we havenât cared about you? Havenât my sisters and I always been helping to maintain the Quillen familyâs business empire? During the last stock crisis, we even invested our own money to buy shares!â
She shouldnât have said that, as it only fueled the anger that Terence had been holding inside!
âIâm not talking about business matters! And when it comes to business, itâs mostly Mackenzie who is supporting it, and you all only occasionally lend a hand!â Terence pointed at Hannah and said, âDid you attend your motherâs memorial last year? What about the year before that? And how many times have you missed my birthday because you had something else going on?â
Upon hearing this, Hannah lowered her head but still felt a bit defiant. âWe have our own matters to deal with too!â
Terence was so angry that he leaned on his cane. âSo you have your own matters, and as a father, I have never forced you, yet, I have tried to understand you! But now you want to interfere in my affairs? Have you ever tried to understand the positions of other family members?â
Samantha quickly signaled Hannah to stop arguing.
Mackenzie also understood that Terence was always alone at home and lacked the company of family members. That was probably why he wanted Marilyn to be by his side now.
âWhen I said I wanted to hand over the business to Mackenzie, you all were only concerned about your own interests and refused to agree! Donât think I donât know that deep down, you also want to divide the family assets, donât you?â Terence continued his angry reprimand.
He could see through their hearts.

The five of them were his own flesh and blood. According to inheritance laws, they were still ahead of Mackenzie. That was the main reason why they didnât want him to hand over Terence Group and Heart of the Sun to Mackenzie!
None of the five daughters said a word, but their expressions showed their discontent.
They had also made contributions to the Quillen family, so why should they be ranked below their niece when it came to inheriting the family business?
It would be understandable if they were ranked below Mackenzie, as she had made the greatest contributions to the Quillen family. But why Emmanuel, an outsider?
That was why they were so fixated on this point!
In fact, it wasnât just them who were unwilling, but the other family members as well.
People were selfish, and that was normal!
Who would be willing to watch as the vast family fortune was divided among others, while they got nothing and remained silent?

Mackenzie and Terence understood it, which was why they didnât say a word.
Terence wouldnât have spoken up if he wasnât angry.
Now that it had been brought up, Terence had no fear of continuing. He then pointed at each daughter.
âStephanie, if you and your husband had a son, I wouldnât have been so eager for Mackenzie to have a great-grandchild. But you disappoint me by giving birth to two daughters!â
âMoira, youâre the same! Why do you only have daughters and not sons?â
âSamantha, Sophie, Hannah, Iâve been urging you three to get married for so many years. But you refused to! You refused to!! And now you want a larger share of the family estate. Is this reasonable?â
âDad, I didnât do anything!â
Samantha quickly clarified.
She truly had no ulterior motives. She had no children of her own and was now a wealthy woman. She had no desire for the Quillen familyâs estate.
It was just that she hadnât been attentive enough to her fatherâs needs in his daily life. She rarely even bought him clothes, let alone taking care of him. So, she couldnât be firm in driving Marilyn away.
âHmph!â
Terence coldly snorted at the five daughters, silencing them. Only then did his gaze shift to Emmanuel and Mackenzie.
Emmanuel immediately had a bad feeling!
Sure enough, Terence didnât spare them. He spoke angrily, âHmph, when I forced you two to get married, you were both reluctant. I told you to have a son early on, but you didnât listen!â
âNow, if you have a son, Iâll have him bear the surname Quillen and leave all the shares and estate to him. Letâs see who dares to oppose?!â
Emmanuel forced a bitter smile and rubbed his nose while slightly looking away. He had never thought about taking any part of the Quillen familyâs estate.
Mackenzie also looked away without saying a word.
It was all Emmanuelâs fault. Did she really have to take the initiative in something like having a child?
