Chapter 253
Gwen had previously taken out a loan of 90 million, so now she was out of money.
Since Brian had broken off his engagement with Arlana, Gwen had found herself ostracized in social circles. Even
the few friends who used to take her calls now ignored her
With no one to turn to, she cto Belinda.
Belinda sat primly on the couch, looking tired. “Mrs. Torrey, what brings you here?” she asked indifferently.
Gwen quickly said, “Mrs. Lodge Senior, I'm here to talk about Ariana and Mr. Lodge's situation.”

She tried to curry favor with Belinda.
Belinda’s voice stayed cool. “That's up to the two of them. Since they decided to end it, you shouldn't interfere.”
She disliked Ariana’s behavior of late. She had no desire for Ariana to be a part of the family.
Gwen said hurriedly, “I know Ariana let you down, Mrs. Lodge Senior. That's why I'm here to solve this problem
for you.”
“Oh? What do you mean by that?”
“I know Ariana has been willful, and I've heard you've taken a liking to Ms. Quinlan,” Gwen said, carefully
watching Belinda’s expression.
Seeing no sign of displeasure, she continued, “But Ms. Quinlan was pampered from a young age. She can’t
handle any hardship. That's nothing like my niece, Fiona. Fiona is good-tempered, obedient, and has no
significant family background. She even got into Glea College thanks to Mr. Lodge's help. | remember Mr. Lodge
rescued her at the club last time. Fiona wants to repay him. Even if it means just being a maid by his side, she’s
willing.” Gwen's words were full of innuendo, but Belinda understood her intent clearly, Gwen was trying to push
Fiona toward Briari.

However, Gwen didn’t care about the sarcasm. All she wanted was a chance to gain benefits.
Ariana wasn't her real daughter, while Fiona was her actual blood relative.
Gwen said, “If you meet Fiona, you'd definitely like her. She’s well-behaved. It would put your mind at ease for
her to look after Mr. Lodge.”
“If you say so, bring her over and letmeet her. If | like her, we might even becin-laws,” Belinda replied.
Hearing this, Gwen grinned from ear to ear. “Great! I'll go get Fiona now, so you can meet her!”
With that, she hurried away.
After she left, Belinda gave a cold laugh. “What a greedy woman.”
Francine asked, “Madam, are you really considering letting Mrs. Torrey’s niece look after Mr. Lodge? That doesn’t
seem appropriate.”
