No Divorce? The Billionaire's Love Chase! novel Chapter 698

Ann nodded helplessly and stayed, quietly moving to Selene’s side. Selene shot her a covert glance. "They have no proof. We absolutely cannot admit we're mother and daughter!"

Hamlin vouched for them. "Everyone, don't listen to my rebellious daughter's nonsense. I've known Selene for years. Ann is Selene's niece. I know this better than anyone!" Before the words had even left his mouth, a new commotion erupted at the entrance.

Laurel had arrived with her son, daughter-in-law, two grandsons, and Ann’s son in tow. Fiona declared, "Mr. Quinn, do you really think you know whether they’re mother and daughter better than we, the James family, do?"

Darleen quickly alerted the influencer. "Zoom in closer! The real show is about to start!"

Seeing the entire James family clan, Ann and Selene’s faces went pale with shock. Ethan James saw Ann and broke free from Laurel’s grasp, running towards her. "Mommy, don't leave me! Waaah…"

Ann screamed and dodged him. "Get away from me! Where did this bastard come from? I'm not your mother!"

Shoved to the ground, Ethan wailed even louder. Fiona pointed an accusing finger at Ann. "You drugged a rich young master to get pregnant and marry into wealth. You wanted to use your child to secure your position, but in the end, they didn't want you. You heartless woman, you abandoned your own son in a rural orphanage! Are you even human?"

Laurel then pointed at both Ann and Selene. "Selene, you venomous snake! You sold yourself to a man for a pittance, got pregnant, and then, terrified for your reputation, you and your family tricked me into raising your daughter for you! Your older brother died of cancer, and I worked my fingers to the bone to put two children through university. Now that one of you has married into the Quinn family and the other has been welcomed by the Harvest family, you won't even take my calls! You vicious pair, give me back my hard-earned money!"

Laurel plopped down on the red carpet, slapping her thighs as she wept and railed against them. The child cried, Fiona shouted, and Ann’s brother added, "Ann, how has the James family wronged you? Even if you're rich now and don't want to acknowledge us, you can't just block our calls and send your own son to an orphanage!"

The church exploded once more.

"Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. This Ann is a true viper!"

Laurel scrambled up and yanked Selene’s hair. "Bullshit! When did I ever see a cent of your money?"

Fiona backed her up. "You even blocked my Laurel's number! We haven't seen a dime from you!"

Seeing the two women shoving a pregnant Selene, Ann and Hamlin rushed to her defense. Ann's brother, seeing his mother and wife at a disadvantage, also joined the scuffle.

Not far away, Darleen saw her chance. She quickly called Ramona. "Ramona, what are you waiting for? Use this chaos to get rid of that baby and give your mom the revenge she deserves. Everything the Quinns have belongs to you!"

Ramona hung up and pretended to break up the fight. "Stop fighting, all of you!" Finding the perfect moment, Ramona drove her knee forcefully into Selene's stomach. Selene let out a piercing scream, and everyone froze. She tumbled from the red carpet, and blood began to soak through her white wedding dress.
