CHAPTER 69: CHAPTER 69: MY ACTING SKILLS AREN’T BAD EITHER

"I don’t know what happened, but she fell. Me, a cripple, can’t help her up."

"Could you please help my sister up?"

Serena Sullivan spoke gently, her eyes clear and innocent. Her performance was more convincing than Zoe Quinn’s desperate tears.

Zoe, who was crying with great intensity, was stunned when she heard these words!

According to her planned script, after the "theft" of the jewelry, she would go to the restroom to apologize to Serena, who would not accept the apology and instead push her to the ground.

She heard footsteps outside the door and was just getting started. Even if Serena didn’t actually reach out to push her, she intended to sit back and pretend to be pushed over.

This way, rumors of Serena being vengeful, petty, and bullying her sister would quickly spread throughout The Grant Corporation.

Who knew Serena would gently say something that turned the "pushing" into her "falling by herself."

"Alright, ma’am." The colleague didn’t doubt the truth of Serena’s words. To them, with Serena’s paralyzed legs compared to Zoe’s healthy state, Serena was clearly at a disadvantage.

"Miss Quinn, please get up." The colleague helped Zoe up and remarked, "Miss Sullivan is really kind to you."

The colleague’s words made Zoe so angry she could almost break her teeth from clenching her jaw. She followed Serena out, raised her hand, smelled the scent on herself, and frowned.

"Zoe."

Serena suddenly stopped in front, turned her wheelchair toward Zoe, and asked with a smile, "Wasn’t my acting pretty good?"

Today, she had spent the entire day acting alongside Zoe.

Provoked by Serena, Zoe’s face turned pale and tight with anger. Gritting her teeth viciously, thinking of being manipulated by Serena twice in one day, she was itching to rush up and deal with Serena brutally.

"Sister, we’ve still got a long way to go." After adjusting her emotions internally, Zoe said with a somber face.

Indeed, the road is still long! Serena smiled, knowing that her score with Zoe was just beginning to be settled.

Zoe watched as Serena left her sight in the wheelchair. She curled her lips into a mocking smile, wondering if this cripple really thought she couldn’t win against her?

She thought about it, then took out her phone. The screen lit up, revealing that the recording function was on.

Last time, Serena had used this trick on her. As soon as she entered the restroom, she activated the recording feature to capture their entire conversation word for word.

Zoe listened to her own voice on the phone, sounding aggrieved and conciliatory. Hearing Serena’s final words, "Wasn’t the acting pretty good?" made her smile even wider.

Now, she intended to present this recording to Ethan. Once Ethan listened to it, he would realize how hypocritical and malicious Serena was, forgive her, and divorce Serena.

Zoe went to find Ethan, filled with joy and anticipation.

In the office of The Grant Corporation’s CEO, Ethan was taking a break from work. He stood by the window, smoking a cigarette, looking toward the small balcony opposite.

The balcony was full of various flowers, dazzling in their colorful display. Through the lush greenery, he could vaguely see her sitting by the window, focused on her painting.

"Ethan!"

The joyous shout reached him as Ethan turned sideways, seeing Zoe appear in his office, disregarding the secretary’s attempts to stop her.

"Sir, Miss Quinn insisted on seeing you."

The secretary said, Zoe’s special status made them apprehensive. They feared if they stopped her, she might go and complain to Mr. Grant.
