The taxi stopped outside the Quinn family’s villa. Natalie hurried out and rang the doorbell.
Now that she had married Sebastian as promised, she decided to ask her adoptive parents for money. After all, she did all this only to pay Hannah’s medical expenses.

Natalie, please try to understand.” Lauren held Natalie’s hand, trying to look pitiful.
