Welcome to Braids: The Next Generation

Hope Goodmon-Wright stood in the grand living room, staring at the portrait of Elizabeth and Theodore Quinnton II, (Quinn), that once adorned the wall above the grand fireplace.   She sighed as she walked away.  Even now, after eight years, it pained her to see how Quinnton Meadows had totally changed. Today, Elizabeth and Quinn’s portrait hang on an obscure wall - away from the fireplace.  A portrait of Naomi Quinnton-Fuerst- Greely graced the space above the fireplace.  Hope shook her head sadly.  So many things had changed since Quinn’s death. The Quinnton Meadows she had known all of her life was gone forever.  Like the portrait of the Quinntons had been replaced, the once-upon-a-time tranquil atmosphere of Quinnton Meadows had been replaced by the jet-set lifestyle of the rich and famous.  Naomi Quinnton-Fuerst-Greely made no secret of the fact that she was wealthy, flaunting it like a crown of glory.
