Chapter 1571
Chapter 1571:
Unlike the more powerful Larson family, the Liam family’s reach only extended so far. Reliable intel was a luxury.
Rowan gave a casual shrug, flicking ash from his cigarette with practiced ease. A faint, knowing smirk crept
across his face. “From what | heard, Braylynn was hanging by a thread at first. The younger Quinn generation
even begged Ralph to see her one last time. But a meeting like that? It would dig up memories best left buried.”
The weight of those words settled over the corridor. Nate's jaw tightened, a shadow passing over his face.
Zack let out a low chuckle, tinged with irony. “Even on her deathbed, she manages to stir the pot.”
Rowan took another drag and then added, “Once her condition stabilized, Merrick from the Elder Council went to
see her personally. You're going all in this time, Nate. Risking the wrath of the Quinn family—just for Corrine. You
know what Braylynn is like. She thrives on , and she'll twist this entire thing into a spectacle. You would be

Nate gave no reply. Without a word, he turned and strode away.

Evelyn had assumed that age would have dulled the woman's appetite for ambition. Instead, Braylynn had
reemerged, waving an old token like a banner of war, demanding Ralph approve a marriage between Nate and
Elva. The confrontation had ended in a fiery argument between Evelyn and Ralph. She had stormed out and
never returned. The history between Evelyn, Ralph, and Braylynn was long and tangled. At its core, it was a tired
triangle, etched in bitterness.
Penny, ever discreet, summoned a servant to clean up the shards. Once they were alone, she hesitated before
speaking again. “Should we... go back and see how things are going?”
Evelyn snapped her head around. “Go back? For what?”
Then, catching herself, she gave a sly smirk. Her voice dropped to a mocking drawl. “Send her sof that new
calming tea | discovered. The one that soothes the nerves. She will need it. Or I'm worried she might drop dead
out of anger.”
Penny gave a small nod. “It’s getting late. You should rest and take your medication.”
Evelyn waved a hand dismissively,
