Chapter 348 Qi Clan's Devastation
Chapter 348 Qi Clan's Devastation
The servants at the door reached out their hands to stop her.
"Without Her Ladyship's permission, nobody leaves the room."
But Linda waved her hand and said, "Let her go!"
Sarah's stomach was rumbling. A rush of gas in her stomach almost couldn't be held in. The cold
beads of sweat began to form on Sarah's forehead. She couldn't hold it in any more. She took a look at
Linda and opened her mouth with trembling lips, "Do you mind if I use your restroom?"
"I'm sorry. The restrooms cannot be used by strangers. Go out, and turn left. You can find a public toilet
a mile away."
With a groan, Sarah left, without even turning her head around.
She knew that Linda would never let her use the restroom, no matter how much she begged.
But she was curious why she saw Linda instead of Haley.
She could never figure it out. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Sarah left the Nalan's villa in a huff. She got in her car, but it wouldn't start. What happened?
Sarah felt very frustrated because she had planned to drive to the toilet. The feeling in her stomach
was the same as how she felt last time. Sarah began to suspect if she was drugged.
This time, she had finally used her brains. She suspected that there was something wrong with the tea.
Somehow, her car wouldn't start, which made Sarah anxious. She had no choice but to call for help.
If she went back to ask the Nalan clan for help, they probably wouldn't help her. Sarah didn't want to
waste time on them. Members of the roadside rescue team arrived twenty minutes later and picked her
up.
Linda wasn't sure if Sarah had shit in her pants again, but she knew that Sarah would never visit the
Nalan's villa and drink their tea in the future.
Linda knew how violent the drug's effect was. Sarah would probably shit in the trailer.
As expected, Sarah was as disgraced as the last time, but instead of going straight to Amy, she went to
her house first.
She thoroughly cleaned herself up and prepared to meet Amy.
She thought it was necessary to inform Amy of the news.
With Amy, they both could further discuss about what they planned to do in the future.
These days, Sarah stayed home because Lord Shen called her back. He thought it was inappropriate
to live in the Qi's house for a long period of time even thought Sarah and Amy were friends, so Sarah
went back home.
After she got ready, Sarah was about to leave home and meet Amy, but she was stopped by Lord
Shen.
"You've just come back. Why are you going out again?" Lord Shen asked. He thought that Sarah was
getting out of line lately. She was always out.
She had been trying to get on Lord Shen's good side, but she had already gone out twice today.
"Grandfather, I have things to do with Amy. I'll be back soon."
Looking at Lord Shen's serious expression, Sarah dared not deceive him.
Since childhood, Sarah had gotten along with Amy very well. Lord Shen would not stop her from going
to the Qi's house because the Shen clan and Qi clan were in a good relationship.
"Don't go. Just stay at home."
"Why not, Grandfather?"
"My good child, listen to me. Stay at home. Don't go to the Qi clan any more."
Lord Shen frowned at Sarah.
After hearing his words, Sarah became anxious, so she asked, "Grandfather, would you please tell me
why?"
Didn't her grandfather want her to be friends with Amy?
"Do you know why I called you back?"
Heaving a sigh, Lord Shen gestured for Sarah to sit beside him.
"I have asked you to never offend the Mu clan nor annoy Linda. Did you turn a deaf ear to my words?"
"Of course not!" Sarah shook her head in guilt.
"I'll tell you the truth today. The reason why I called you back is that Amy's parents gave me a call,
asking me to take you back home. The Qi clan's in a very devastated situation."
"That's impossible! Grandfather, the Qi clan runs their businesses well, and they are a scholarly family
with a hundred-year history. How could it be possible? In addition, they get along with the Mu clan in
various business partnerships. The Qi clan is definitely not going to go bankrupt."
Sarah couldn't believe it.
"Why would I deceive you? Don't you know that Charles has made a move against the Qi clan? All the
stocks of the Qi clan had fallen, so they were purchased by the Mu clan. The Qi clan is heavily in debt
now. They are no longer the scholarly family that backs the Mu clan with numerous resources."
Lord Shen sighed deeply.
"How could that be? Why did Charles do that?"
Sarah was completely lost now.
"I don't know the details. But it was Bob who called me to get you home. He didn't tell me any specific
reason. According to my investigation, Charles finally agreed to let them off the hook. However, they
have to emigrate to another country and never come back."
"Pardon? Let them off the hook? Aren't they old family friends? They've been friends for so many
years, but Charles was doing all of these to them. How can that be called letting them off the hook?
What a mess!"
Sarah said in a heap of anger.
Lord Shen glanced at her and warned her, "Keep these words to yourself. The girl of the Qi clan must
have done something to offend Charles. If you don't want us to follow in their footsteps, you'd better
stay home and wait for your wedding ceremony with Brian."
Speaking of Brian, Sarah began to hesitate.
"Did you hear me? Amy is done for. She did all she can to win Charles' heart, but right now, there's no
way out for her. You are my granddaughter, and I'll try my best to help you get what you want. But
remember, do not mess with the wrong people."
Lord Shen said, as he patted Sarah on her shoulder.
"I got it, Grandfather."
"Okay. Now, don't go to the Qi clan's house any more. You should cut off your relationship with Amy to
avoid getting our family involved in Charles' fury. What you should do now is to prepare for your
wedding ceremony. By the way, to get it over with, the wedding day has been pushed up. The wedding
ceremony will be held in 10 days. Take it seriously!"
Lord Shen said with a smile.
Thinking about her wedding ceremony, Sarah felt very excited.
But she felt sympathy for her close friend, Amy, because she had been in love with Charles for so
many years, but she finally ended up with nothing.
Although she allowed her grandfather's request, she still decided to see Amy in secret.
She wanted to know what exactly had happened, and she also wanted to tell Amy the news she had.
