The Billionaire's Last Obsession series 86 Summary As Jimmy awakens, Misty panics and clings tightly to Rona, while Rona urgently asks Lilian to help Barry. However, Lilian coldly refuses, stating her break ends and she will leave tomorrow, warning them not to count on her due to her past. Rona pleads desperately, admitting she was wrong to doubt Lilian and offers anything in exchange for her help, but Lilian remains firm in her refusal. Misty lashes out angrily at Lilian, accusing her of indifference despite their pleas, which leads to a heated exchange between Misty and Rona.
Justin steps in to apologize for his sister's outburst and implores Lilian to reconsider, offering to pay any price. Lilian dismisses the offer, suggesting Misty find someone else capable of saving Barry, then leaves the room without another word. Mr. Quinton finally speaks, revealing that Jimmy and Barry were poisoned, not ill, and implies that the family knows who is responsible. He warns that his will is already signed, and if the chosen heir dies, all his assets will go to charity, making any scheming pointless.
This announcement shocks everyone, leaving Lily devastated as she realizes her efforts were in vain. Rona breaks down, begging Mr. Quinton to prioritize saving Barry over inheritance disputes and to ask Lilian for help. Mr. Quinton responds with sorrow and instructs Rona to have Misty apologize to Lilian; if Lilian accepts, she will treat Barry, but if not, there is nothing more he can do. He then leaves the room, leaving the family in a heavy silence filled with tension and uncertainty.
Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below The instant Jimmy opened his eyes, Misty froze, her grip tightening desperately on Rona's arm, panic flashing across her face. Rona stepped forward swiftly, her voice gentle yet urgent. "Ms. Lilian, now that Jimmy's awake, could you please-" Before she could finish, Lilian cut in, her tone cool and detached. "I'm sorry, Ms. Rona. My break ends today. I'll be leaving tomorrow. Given my questionable past, it's probably best if you don't count on me." Rona was taken aback by the blunt refusal. She glanced toward Mr.
Quinton, silently pleading for support, but he remained silent, his expression unreadable. "Lilian, please..." Rona's voice wavered with desperation. "Help Barry. I was wrong-I shouldn't have doubted you. Whatever you want, anything at all-I'll agree." Lilian's calm response was unwavering. "I'm sorry. I just don't have the ability." She wasn't someone who could easily forgive repeated insults or be expected to turn the other cheek. Misty snapped, her voice sharp and accusing. "You bitch! My mom is begging you, and you just stand there like a statue? You should be grateful we even let you in!

You're going to treat him whether you want to or not!" "Misty, that's enough!" Rona's voice cracked with a mix of frustration and concern. "Shut your mouth!" Misty shot back fiercely. Caught off guard by the simultaneous reprimands from her mother and older brother, Misty's face twisted with anger, her eyes blazing with resentment as she stared daggers at Lilian. Justin stepped forward calmly, his tone respectful but firm. "I apologize for my sister's outburst. Please don't take it personally. As for our father, I ask you to reconsider.
Whatever it takes-name your price." Lilian didn't hesitate for a moment. "There's no need. I'm sure your sister can find someone else capable of saving your father." Before anyone could respond, she turned toward Mr. Quinton. "Since everything's settled, I'll head to my room." Without another word, she walked away, leaving the room steeped in silence. Mr. Quinton, seated at the head of the table, finally exhaled deeply. "If you want to save Barry, you'll have to figure it out yourselves. I've done all I can." His voice grew serious as he continued.
"Now that everyone's here, there's something I must say. Jimmy and Barry didn't slip into comas because of illness-they were poisoned. Who did it? Deep down, you all know. I haven't said a word, but that doesn't mean I'm unaware." Lily's face paled, her fingers tightening around her teacup. Has he discovered the truth? Mr. Quinton's tone hardened, decisive. "If the position of heir has driven you to such extremes, let me be clear: don't waste your efforts. My will has already been signed. If anything happens to the person I've chosen, every cent of my assets will be donated to charity.
So stop scheming. It's pointless." His words hit the room like a thunderclap. One by one, faces drained of color, disbelief etched deeply on every expression. None had anticipated such a declaration. Lily's body sagged as if the air had been knocked out of her. She slumped onto the sofa, dazed and defeated, fully aware of what his words meant: all her efforts had been for nothing. At that moment, Rona collapsed to her knees before Mr. Quinton, tears streaming down her face. "Dad, I'm begging you. Do whatever you want with the inheritance-I don't care. But Barry is still lying there.
As his wife, I'm pleading with you-please ask Lilian to help him!" Mr. Quinton looked at her with profound sorrow, gently patting her shoulder. "Then have Misty go and apologize to Lilian. If she accepts, she will treat Barry. If she refuses... there's nothing more I can do." With that, he turned and slowly ascended the stairs, leaving the heavy silence to settle over those left behind. Conclusion The chapter closes on a somber and tense note, highlighting the deep fractures within the family and the heavy weight of desperation pressing upon them.
Each character wrestles with their own emotions-guilt, anger, and helplessness-as they confront the stark reality that saving Barry may depend on mending broken bridges and overcoming bitter resentments. The revelation of poisoning and the firm stance of Mr. Quinton regarding the inheritance cast a shadow of futility over their struggles, underscoring the high stakes and the painful sacrifices demanded by loyalty and love. Yet, amidst the despair, there remains a fragile thread of hope, embodied in Rona's tearful plea and the possibility of reconciliation through Misty's apology.
As Rona grapples with the crushing weight of her father's ultimatum, the fragile alliances within the family are poised to be tested like never before. Misty's fiery confrontation with Lilian has set the stage for a potential turning point-will pride and past grievances be overcome for the sake of Barry's survival, or will stubbornness and bitterness drive a deeper wedge between them? Emotions will run high as the characters confront the harsh reality that the inheritance, once a symbol of hope and security, may now be out of reach.
The stakes are not just financial but deeply personal, forcing each character to confront their own motivations and fears. With Mr. Quinton's cryptic warning hanging in the air, secrets may come to light, and loyalties will be questioned.
