Chapter 1302
If Quincy kept listening to his parents, he would be a fool. He would not give them another chance to damage his
relationship with Lydia.
"Mrs. Clinton, see them out," he ordered firmly.
"Quincy! I'm your mother. How can you just throwout like this?" Mrs. Perez's face turned pale with shock and
anger.
Tiffany's eyes filled with tears as she played the victim. "If you don't want to see me, I'll go. But please don't take
it out on your parents. They really love and care about you, or else they wouldn't be so involved in your life."
Which parent doesn't love their child? Quincy had never denied this before. But after drinking that drugged tea,
his perspective shifted.
Yes, they loved him, but not enough. Their love was overshadowed by their desire to control him and dictate his
life. Otherwise, how could they have been so ruthless?

"Mrs. Clinton, | won't say it again. See them out." With that, Quincy turned and walked back into the house,
leaving Mrs. Clinton to face the three alone.
She stepped forward. "I'm sorry, but I'll have to ask you all to leave."
Mr. Perez finally spoke. "How much does Lydia pay you each month, Mrs. Clinton?"
He saw clearly that Quincy trusted Mrs. Clinton, perhaps even more than his own parents. If they could buy her
off, get her to push Quincy toward Tiffany, maybe they could turn the situation around.
"My salary comes from Mr. Quincy," Mrs. Clinton replied firmly. "It's not about the money. | have one rule: | do my
job with a clear conscience."
She believed in staying out of other people's marriages and wouldn't involve herself in breaking up his.
Mrs. Perez wanted to press further, but Tiffany gave her a slight shake of the head.

On the drive back, Mr. Perez was at the wheel while Mrs. Perez and Tiffany sat in the back. Mrs. Perez dabbed at
her tears the entire way just can't believe how that woman has him so wrapped around her finger. She's got him
so enthralled that we, his own parents, are nothing to him compared to a mere housekeeper. If word gets out,
we'll be a laughingstock."
She sighed deeply, regretful that they hadn't forced Quincy's handz before he and Lydia had married. If they had
stopped the marriage in its tracks, it would have been easier
than this.

"Please don't worry, Mrs. Perez. Let's not push him too hard right now, or it'll just backfire," Tiffany said gently.
She wanted Quincy, not just his
presence, but his heart and his love.

An empty marriage would leave the
door open
for Lydia to cback
someday, and Tiffany wasn't going
to allow that.

"Yes, | understand," Mrs. Perez sighed. "But seeing him entangled with that woman, it drivescrazy."
After all, they had used a potent drug. It was hard to believe that nothing had happened between the two.
She turned to Tiffany and asked, "It's just the three of us here. Tellthe truth. Did anything actually happen
between you two?"
