Return Of The Real Heiress: Secrets And Masks by Caspian Wood

My Billionaire Family 454

Chapter 454

In contrast to the joyful ambiance at the Chivers Residence, the Jarrett residence exuded a somber mood.

Since she returned yesterday, Mary hadn't had any appetite.

She reclined on the chaise lounge, clutching a bottle of essential oil, and periodically applied it to her temples

using her fingers.

Lucas and Jean sat a bit farther away, exchanging glances.

"Grandpa, why don't you talk to her," Jean nudged Lucas with her elbow and softly suggested.

Lucas looked stubborn and said, "Well, I'm not going. If you want to, you go.

"This is good news. I've always said the Quinton family is a pack of parasites. Alice's always acting like a proud

peacock. Well, now she knows I'm right.

"Matthew is, in fact, Ghost Hand; it's no surprise that the Quinton family is so arrogant. The innocent people died

in vain.

"This time, the Quinton family is undoubtedly beyond redemption. They must face the full extent of their

punishment, or there will be unrest."

"Oh!" Mary sighed and exclaimed occasionally.

Lucas and Jean looked at her and shook their heads repeatedly.

At this time, a security guard hurried in from outside and called out, "Mr. and Mrs. Jarrett."

Lucas looked over and asked, "What's going on?"

The security guard said, "Mrs. Quinton and Ms. Quinton have arrived, requesting to see Mrs. Jarrett."

Lucas laughed at this, seemingly raising his volon purpose, Oh, speak of the devil and the Quinton family

appears!"

Lucas's volgrew louder as he deliberately shouted at Mary.

Jean couldn't help but chuckle.

Of course, Mary heard it. She stood up, looking quite conflicted as she gazed at Lucas. She asked, "Should | meet

them?"

Lucas snorted and said, "Cherise just called and praised you for being brave these past few days and not holding

her back. What has happened to your brain since you returned? "Think for yourself!"

Mary was somewhat conflicted.

However, after thinking about what she saw and went through at Ghost Hand these past two days, Mary told the

security guard firmly, "I don't want to see them.

"Tell them that from now on, whether the Quinton family survives or falls has nothing to do with me.

"They should take the consequences of their own deeds."

Arthur secretly visited the Clusia Security Department, where Ghost Hand was detained.

At the moment, Ghost Hand was sitting on a wooden bed. The bullet had been removed, and his knee was

wrapped in thick gauze.

Seeing Arthur, Ghost Hand said, "I didn't expect to see you here. It's been ten years since we last met, hasn't it?"

Arthur nodded silently.

Even now, Ghost Hand wasn't scared at all. He continued, "Letgo. You can do it. After all, we are family."

Arthur looked at Ghost Hand with disdain and said, "I ctoday just to meet you for the last tfor the sake

of those times when you heldas a child. "You've hurt so many people and sold off countless secrets.

"If you don't get punished, it will be hard to make things right for everyone harmed by the Quinton family."

When he heard this, Ghost Hand glared at Arthur and said fiercely, "You knew what I'd done all along, didn't you?

"You were just waiting for the right opportunity to takedown all at once.

"Moreover, you usedto get rid of scorrupt officials."

Arthur didn't say anything, but his silence made his attitude clear.

Ghost Hand laughed wildly and commented, "Oh, well done. There's a good reason you've made it to where you

are.

"I was really setting myself up here. Mary indeed has a great son

Ghost Hand kept talking, but Arthur ignored him and turned to leave.

Once Arthur settled into his car, he turned to Mateo, who had accompanied him, and said, "Do it. Have the

media department release the news as a warning to others. "Taketo Mr. Finch's place."

Mateo nodded.

A few minutes later, agonizing screams and the shrill noise of gunfire were heard from outside.

Once it becquiet again, the vehicle carrying Arthur drove away.

Half an hour later, the media in Clusia reported on the Ghost Hand incident.

The report was concise and to the point, but it caused quite a sensation immediately.

Because of the sensitive nature of the topic, netizens were prohibited from commenting. However, the news

spread rapidly in private circles, becoming a popular topic at social gatherings.

The exact details of the event were unknown. What was known was that the Quinton family, who had

connections to Arthur, had experienced a downfall.

The government not only confiscated the Quinton family's assets, but also those associated with the family

vanished, including Alice.

Even collateral relatives of the Quinton family, such as Jean, faced dire consequences and could no longer

anticipate wealth

Someone said, "Who would have thought things like this could happen in peaceful times? It's outrageous. Thank

goodness I'm ordinary enough not to get caught up."

Someone else chimed in, "Absolutely, | saw the underground news about the Quinton family's assets being

seized.

"Honestly, even if | had been making money since the dawn of time, | couldn't have earned even one percent of

what they possessed."

Another one commented, "Alright, let's stop talking about it. I'm truly thankful to my parents for givinga

simple and stable life." By noon, Cherise and Morris had just finished washing up and eating brunch.

They caught up on the news.

"You've been at Ghost Hand for a few days. What's your take on this result?" Morris asked Cherise as he switched

off the TV. Cherise shrugged and said, "That's just how it is. He wasn't my target, but he definitely had it coming.

"Just feels like he got away too easily."

Morris understood her meaning and showed a photo on his phone to Cherise. He said, "Check this out."
