“After what happened last night, with Lily leaving this morning and now Quiana too, could it be that she was kicked out?”
“But didn’t the teacher just say someone was looking for her?”
“Maybe he’s just trying to save her some face…”
“Good riddance. May it stay quiet, and may she never return.”
“Hey, that’s not fair! This is a closed–off training camp. We’ve been here a month, and except for that one run, we haven’t left at all. But she gets to leave whenever she wants. What gives her the right?”
“Exactly. What gives her the right?”
“Maybe it’s because she’s a rich heiress, and her fiancé is powerful!”
“Fiance? I heard she stole Winona’s fiancé. Quiana really has no shame…”
“Haven’t we had enough chaos lately? Or haven’t we learned our lesson with Quiana? Just keep quiet.”
Voices rose in gossip, each with something to say.
Viola scoffed. “This is a closed training camp, and she’s out every few days. Does she think this place is her home?”
“What? Are you jealous or something?” Sofia glanced at her.
“Jealous of Quiana?” Viola sneered, and her eyes were full of sarcasm. “Who is she? Why would I ever be jealous of her?”
“Then why do you keep mentioning her?” Sofia smirked. “Do you miss her so much that you want to kneel and call her Dad?”
“You…” That had become Viola’s sore spot, a shame in her life. Her face turned pale, and she could not say a word.
Sofia let out a cold snort and pulled Wendy back to the training room.
Jessica studied Lucy’s expression and smiled flatteringly. “Lucy, now that Quiana is gone, whether she comes back or not, she definitely won’t have time to practice dance. This time, you’ll surely be number one.”
Lucy’s gaze was proud and cold. She glanced at her and said indifferently, “Even if she’s here, she’s no match for me.”
Jessica gave an awkward smile. “Of course, you’re definitely the best!”
If Jessica had said it a while ago, Lucy would definitely be happy to hear it. But now, ever since entering the training camp, Lucy had been overshadowed by Quiana at every turn. She had even been humiliated.
She could not even force a smile now. But it did not matter. She would still make herself debut! As for Quiana, no matter how strong she was, she would end up failing in the finals.
What mattered now was that she had to find a way to get the recording back from Quiana, or she would not be able to sleep. Megan, Joyce, and Sarah had remained silent from last night until now, without saying a word or offering any opinion.
In Druobridge, a car drove straight into the Hawley manor. The antique–style courtyard was both elegant and tranquil.
As Julius and Quiana made their way through the corridors, they saw the backyard was crowded with people. Derek and the others, including Paul and Shane, were there. There had originally been some aristocrats who came to visit, but there were

too many people, so they were all asked to leave.

“Julius,” Shane greeted as he came out. He was slightly taken aback when he saw Quiana Frowning his brows, he asked, “Are you sure she can do it?”
Julius replied calmly, “We won’t know until we try,”
“Try? Try what?” Joshua’s face darkened. “Julius, that’s our dad’s life you’re dealing with. What do you take him for?”
Julius looked up with a cold gaze. “Should I wait for you all to find a doctor to save him?”
“1…” Derek was at a loss for words.
In fact, the best doctors from National Medical Bureau had been there.
Lately, they had even sought famous doctors from abroad. After examining Edward, the conclusion was that he was suffering from old age and exhaustion. The only option left was surgery, followed by life–sustaining medication. However, that method would be quite painful.
Julius remembered Tom’s situation from last time, which was why he reached out to Quiana for help.
“But you can’t just let anyone treat Dad.” Derek approached them with a somber look. “If something happens to him, who will take responsibility?”
They had no idea if Edward’s will had been written, nor where it might be hidden, as well as the family heirloom token. They were afraid it was secretly handed over to Julius.
“I’ll take responsibility.” Julius‘ gaze was unwavering, and his tone was cold and forceful.
