In the Brilliance Competition, after her reputation was destroyed by Serena Sullivan, her career plummeted. A few days ago, Joel Quinn wanted the house from her to buy shares in The Sullivan Corporation, and she agreed without thinking much.
The reason she agreed so quickly was that she thought, once she got The Sullivan Corporation, Claire Sullivan would definitely give it all to Joel Quinn just like before.
She couldn't attend The Sullivan Corporation shareholders' meeting, so she waited and waited at home until she finally received a call from Zoe Quinn.
On the phone, Zoe Quinn cried and said that The Sullivan Corporation had become Serena Sullivan's; they were all deceived by Claire Sullivan.
Only then did Ruth Hale realize that Claire Sullivan had tricked Joel Quinn into giving her money and property, which she used to buy shares of The Sullivan Corporation, and then turned around and gave it to Serena Sullivan.
