When it mattered, he only thought about protecting the Quinn family. Lionel walked out but glanced back at Stella. His eyes seemed to say a thousand things, but Stella didn't even look at him and just turned away to leave.
When she got back to the car, she saw people throwing vegetable leaves at him and even hitting him. She didn't feel sorry for him at all.
It was nothing. The kind of pain she nearly died from was something Lionel would never understand. She still wanted to get revenge, but since they were at a hospital, she had to keep things respectful for now.
There would be plenty of time later. She wasn't going to let anyone who hurt her off the hook. "Let's go," Stella said, not wanting to watch anymore.
Jordan drove the car away. When Lionel got home, Hasan gave him a serious beating. Hasan said, "If you did something, why leave evidence?
"Now it's even worse. We were counting on your reputation to help the family, but all you brought was bad news.
"Anna's gone. Before she left, she told you she wanted to end the engagement. Tell me, do you want to see the Quinn family fall apart day by day?"
Erica, feeling sorry for Lionel, quickly hugged him. "Stop hitting him. Who could've known it'd end like this? And the company falling apart isn't Lionel's fault. Why are you taking it out on him?"
Deep down, Hasan knew she was right. The family's turmoil wasn't Lionel's fault, but it felt like misfortune had them in its grip.
Lionel remained slumped on the floor, dazed, until Erica tugged at his arm. "Enough of this," she urged. "Get up."
Lionel glanced at Hasan, saw he didn't say more, and stood up. Erica said, "Since Anna hasn't gone public, we will. The Hayes family is heartless and ungrateful. We don't owe them anything. Maybe this will help us save face."
Lionel said nothing. Erica added, "If you don't say it, I will. If people see Anna with another man, where does that leave our family's reputation?"
Hasan sighed, "Fine, go ahead."
Erica announced that Anna had officially ended her engagement with the Hayes family. After learning about the Quinn family's troubles, she cut ties immediately. Then the Quinn family didn't want a daughter-in-law like her.
Suddenly, Anna was in the spotlight. Everyone remembered the last time she teamed up with Troy against her sister. Now this. Anna was that kind of person.
Usually, someone from the Hayes family would step in to defend her, but this time, no one did—well, no one except Stella, who spoke up.
She said she'd officially taken over the company since Fiona kicked her out of the Hayes family. Even though she still had the Hayes name, she wasn't connected to Andrew, only to Desmond Hayes.
So whether it was Andrew or Anna, as long as it wasn't Eleanor's business, it didn't involve her. That was why the Hayes family's company stayed steady without any trouble.
Right now, the one having the hardest time was Anna. Her life with the Johnson family was complicated, filled with both good moments and difficult times.
It was good because Monroe, who had liked her for a long time, treated her well. But it was bad because no one else in the Johnson family treated her kindly.
They all looked down on her. Now, with bad news following her and Monroe away, those who didn't like her came around, ready to cause problems.
