Chapter 631
Ryan’s furious outburst left a profound psychological impact on Zoe.
Zoe’s secretary and Adam were dealt with severely.
Ryan was ready to cut ties with Adam, who had been working for him for so many years. Judging by the situation, it seemed like
Adam’s
days were numbered.
‘All this drama is just for the sake of that foolish woman, Carrie. Did
his own biological sister not compare to that woman? What a joke!’
Zoe, brimming with resentment, returned to the Hoffman residence
after leaving the villa. Her face, as dark as a vengeful spirit, reflected
the turmoil within.
Along the way, memories of Ryan’s past affection for her kept
flooding her mind. The more she thought about it, the angrier she
became, shedding tears of frustration along the way.
In the end, Zoe came to a conclusion. Regardless of the means, she
was determined to make Ryan and Carrie break up. She could not
allow this fool to become her sister-in-law.
Back at home, Claire welcomed Zoe warmly.
“Zoe! You’re finally back!” exclaimed Claire, her eyes welling up with
tears of joy as she had not seen her daughter for a long time.
Claire rushed over to embrace her daughter. “My dear daughter, didn’t
your flight arrive earlier? Why did you take so long to come home? I
was starting to get worried!”

Zoe’s eyes teared up and turned red upon seeing her mother.
“Mommy...” Zoe cried. She could not help but think of the injustice.
she had endured.
“What’s wrong, my darling? You seem unhappy. Did someone bully. you?” Claire inquired with concern. “And where’s Ryan?
Didn’t he go to pick you up? Why isn’t he back with you?”
Zoe lowered her eyes, a look of grievance on her face, as she shook
her head.
“Ryan is unbelievable! He used to dote on you so much, but now,
because of that Salvador girl, he sends you off to Inalia without a
care. After finally coming back, he doesn’t even bother to pick up his
sister! What on earth is he thinking?” Claire expressed her frustration.
Claire gently caressed her daughter’s cheeks. “These days, Ryan
hasn’t come home at all. I know he’s busy and has his own way of
doing things. In the past, no matter how busy he was, he would never
disappear like this without a word! He stopped coming home, and
now he doesn’t even care about his own younger sister! I really don’t
understand what he is thinking!”
“I know why Ryan isn’t coming home,” Zoe admitted.
“What? You know?” Claire was taken aback.
Zoe clenched her fists, her voice turning grim. “Mommy, I’ll tell you
something, but you must try to stay calm after hearing it.”
“What happened, Zoe? Don’t scare me!”
“Ryan is in a relationship with Shannon’s youngest daughter,” Zoe
revealed through gritted teeth.
“Who? Shannon Quarry? That wicked woman’s youngest daughter?!” Claire was genuinely shocked and dumbfounded.
“Yes, she is Bethany’s younger sister. Shannon’s daughter!”
Zoe hugged her mother’s arm and shook it. “Mommy! What on earth.
is Ryan thinking? Shannon and her daughter had caused us trouble in
the past, spewing nonsense and threatening to have me jailed! It hasn’t been long since that incident, and now Ryan is already
in a
relationship with Carrie.”
Zoe continued, her voice filled with a mix of resentment and sadness.
“How could he do this? He no longer considers me his sister!”
Claire felt uneasy when she heard this. She could not fathom why her
son, who had always been the pride of the family, would entangle
himself in such a complicated situation. Although the Salvadors were
a wealthy family and Ryan had a close friendship with Justin, Claire
still did not understand what Ryan was thinking.
Despite that, she tried to console her daughter. “Zoe, even not fond of Shannon’s daughter, your brother’s temperam
