After leaving the coffee shop, Isabella somehow felt a sudden sense of unease.The anxiety came quite intensely, making her restless. She suddenly wanted to see Quinn very much, right away, and then, hold his thick, big hand.The past few days had been filled with uproar about the western development of the Grand Group. Isabella knew that Quinn's early departures and late returns these days were also related to that project.Quinn held the position of President at NextEra Technologies, and he was also involved in other projects of the Grand Group. The big boss of Grand Group really treated him as if he were several people.Seeing Quinn always so busy, leaving early and returning late every day, the time the two spent together was quite limited.Perhaps it was because of this that she felt such unease.She took out her phone and checked the time. It was an hour until lunchtime. She thought she might as well go to Grand Group and invite him for lunch. She couldn't let him go hungry.Wit
Everything happened too quickly, so fast that by the time Quinn wanted to save Isabella, she had already been thrown onto the flower bed by the roadside.Quinn couldn't do anything but watch helplessly as the frail, slender figure was thrown out, and then, hit the ground with a thud.He watched, wide-eyed and speechless. That impact, it seemed to hit him right in the heart, with a loud thud, as if shattering his internal organs.Isabella lay on the green lawn, red blood gushing from the gruesome wound on her calf, falling onto the green grass, as bright and beautiful as a blooming peony. Yet Isabella was like a wilting reed, teetering and collapsing to the ground.A sinking feeling filled Quinn's heart. He clenched his fists at his sides and quickly ran to Isabella's side. He scooped her up in his arms and held her gently, "Isabella, don't be scared, I'm taking you to the hospital right away."Isabella heard Quinn's voice, the corner of her mouth twitched, it was unclear whether it wa
Quinn said so, and Isabella was surprisingly speechless.She wanted to go to the bathroom, but how could she ask him for help with such a thing.It was so embarrassing, so shy, okay!Quinn seemed oblivious to her embarrassment, carrying her towards the bathroom. Isabella's face was burning hot. "Quinn, no."Quinn still ignored her, placing her on the toilet seat, and was about to help her take off her pants..."Quinn—" Isabella grabbed his hand in a panic, "I can do it myself, really, you don't need to help."Didn't men with low emotional intelligence know about the concept of shyness?No matter how you put it, she's still a girl. How could she do such an embarrassing thing in front of him? It's really damaging to her image, isn't it?"Can you really?" Quinn asked back, his face serious.He just wanted to help her, without thinking about anything else. However, seeing the little woman's face turn so red, he guessed
"Our father, killed in a car accident, the police said it was an accident. But everyone knew it wasn't an accident," Maxwell sighed deeply, then said, "Another car accident, that's just the kind of dirty tricks the Gray family would play."Quinn calmly said, "The Gray family won't struggle for much longer.""Yeah." Maxwell looked at Quinn, sighing deeply again, "As long as you, Qadir, make a move, the Gray family, no matter how capable, won't be able to struggle for long.""There's no need for me to lift a finger, someone will naturally take care of them," Quinn said to Maxwell, his tone neither cold nor warm.Hearing Quinn say this, Maxwell understood again that every single thing he had done had not escaped Quinn's surveillance.For instance, he had previously hinted to Isabella to seek out Ashford to deal with the Gray family matter, Quinn probably already knew.Since Quinn already knew about the Ashford incident, Maxwell was not afraid t
Ashford agreed quickly with his words, while in his mind he had already considered all kinds of possibilities.He could affirm that when Elena, this woman, proposed that he marry her, it was definitely not as simple as wanting to be his wife.The reason he agreed so readily was because he wanted to find out what her true purpose really was."Who cares about being your wife." Elena laughed, not looking at the person who came in, and said, "I want that twenty percent of the shares, and I also want to be the matriarch of the Gray Group."Being the matriarch of the Gray Group had been her wish for many years. Now that she couldn't rely on Alexander, she would find another way.She attended a renowned school in her home country and also studied at Harbridge University in Althera. She was not only attractive but also knowledgeable.Having left Kason and separated from Alexander, she could do better, she would definitely be superior to the Elena wh
After over two hours of flight time, the plane arrived at Northbay Airport past nine in the evening.It took them over an hour to get back to their house from the airport. By the time they arrived home, it was already nearly 8 p.m.Knowing they were coming back, the servant who had been responsible for taking care of Misty also sent Misty back home in advance.Misty was feeling very down because she hadn't seen her mother for quite a long time. She lay on the sofa alone, not wanting to move at all.Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, it still lay there without moving. Recently, whenever it heard the door open and ran over to greet, it was always met with disappointment. So today, it just couldn't be bothered to move.After opening the door, Quinn let Isabella go in first. Isabella peeked in and looked around, but she didn't see Misty, who would always run to greet her whenever she opened the door in the past."Misty..." Not seeing Mi
Even when she was drunk as a skunk, upon hearing the familiar voice that couldn't be more familiar, Sophie instantly recognized who was carrying her.Besides him, no one else dared to treat her like that.She extended her delicate, boneless hand, randomly patting his back, and sighed, "Qadir, why is it always you who comes looking for me?""How can you be so idle in a day? Why don't you find a girlfriend?" Sophie said, shaking her head and sighing, "The New Year is coming soon, and you will be twenty-nine after the New Year, just one step away from thirty. You're getting old, if you don't find a woman soon, there won't be any woman willing to marry you in the future."Who knows if there was really something wrong with her brother?She spread the news about his preference for beautiful women, and many people rushed to send women to him. However, he turned everyone away without even meeting them.Alas—She had gone to great length
It wasn't that he had no way to deal with her, but rather he couldn't bear to let her suffer even a little bit of injustice.For the past eighteen years, taking care of her, ensuring her happiness and healthy growth, had already become an inseparable part of his life.Back then, when mother brought Sophie home, he was ten years old. Looking at such a tiny baby, he had an indescribable feeling.Perhaps it was because he had watched her grow from a tiny child into an adult, that he wanted to protect her even more.Rubbing her head, Quinn stood up to leave, but Sophie rolled over and grabbed him, "Qadir, I'm scared alone, stay with me."When she was little, she was particularly afraid of sleeping alone, especially during thunderstorms. At those times, she would crawl into his bed and sleep holding him.As long as he was there, he would protect her like her guardian angel, and she would no longer feel afraid."Alright, I'll accompany you.
How Quinn wished she would say more! He had so many things he wanted to tell her, he wanted to know how she had spent these past three years.He wanted to tell her that their Izzy II was already three years old, very cute and sensible, and sometimes quite a handful.But all of these, he couldn't tell her now.Or, didn't know how to start.His wife, his Isabella, she no longer remembered their past."Iris?" Quinn repeated her Slendish name a few times, laughing, "Iris is a very nice and interesting name, the goddess of starry night in mythology. I suppose your Celestian name must also be very nice."Suddenly hearing someone ask for her Celestian name, Iris couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. After a moment's hesitation, she still said, "I fell seriously ill two years ago and forgot everything from before. My father didn't tell me my Celestian name, but he calls me Izzy."- Izzy.The tip of the tongue touched the lower teet
The rapidly descending elevator suddenly got stuck and did not continue to descend.The scream in the elevator stopped abruptly, but Isabella's fists did not. She seemed to be greatly frightened, treating the person holding her as a ferocious beast.Quinn held her tightly, constantly comforting her, "Isabella, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, I'm here, it's okay, it's okay, I will never let anything happen to you again, never again—"Three years ago, he lost her and he has been filled with regret ever since.If he were to encounter her now, no matter the cost, he would absolutely not let her suffer the slightest harm again. No one could hurt her anymore.Quinn held Isabella tightly, instructing, "Anyone with a phone, take it out for lighting, and immediately press the emergency button to notify the property management."Hearing his calm voice, the trapped people in the elevator were like they had taken a sedative, no one made a fuss o
Because there was hope, there were countless disappointments.This time, Quinn did not act immediately, but quietly watched the woman, whose silhouette resembled that of his Isabella, walk further and further away.Just as she turned the corner and disappeared from his line of sight, Quinn could no longer care about anything else, and he rushed out of the crowd surrounding him.Regardless of whether that person was his Isabella or not, even if the truth would disappoint him, he still wanted to confirm it with his own eyes.He would rather be disappointed again than miss any opportunity that might lead him to her.Quinn suddenly ran off, and for reasons unknown, everyone else followed him."Mr. Ashton..."The one who called out to him was Braylon. After finishing the matters here, there was still a very important meeting waiting for him. He had no time to delay."Don't follow me," Quinn said without turning his head.As s
The StylePulse Show was world-class. After the event, not only did the models' value skyrocket, but the attention received by the backstage designers also significantly increased.Although the designers did not have as much exposure in front of the audience as the models, their status in the fashion industry was far higher than that of the models, and those who won awards were extremely popular for a time.After Iris won the award, there wasn't much change in her life, because her father managed all her affairs. She just needed to draw her design drafts, and life was still very comfortable.On the third day of arriving at Northbay, Kason had already accepted an announcement for Iris, it was an interview program for a fashion segment on a certain TV station in Northbay.Designers always worked behind the scenes, and Iris had never made a public appearance over the years. Suddenly hearing such news, she was resistant internally. However, when she saw the ho
Quinn looked in the direction Izzy II was pointing, but still saw nothing, finally shaking his head in frustration.What has been going on with him recently?Even seeing a simple heart-shaped band-aid, or hearing some childish words from Izzy II, he could associate everything with Isabella."Daddy, Izzy was hungry, she wanted to eat red strawberries and sweet chocolate." Izzy II raised her little hands to hold her father's face, and said seriously with a soft voice.Soon, Izzy II could no longer remember Izzy I who had just helped her, she was just craving for delicious food."Does Izzy want to eat?" Looking at his daughter's twinkling big eyes, Quinn couldn't help but lean down and kiss her rosy cheeks."Kiss for five hundred bucks." Izzy II spread her hands, said softly, "Daddy, give money."Quinn asked, "Does Izzy want money? Or does she want strawberries?"Hearing her father's words, Izzy tilted her little head and blinked
The little girl first looked at Iris with a shocked expression, then stretched out her hand, pointing at Iris, "You are Izzy I," then pointed at herself, "I am Izzy II." Then she made a "2" with her chubby little hand, "We, two Izzys!"Izzy II looked so adorable that Izzy I couldn't help but laugh out loud, "So Izzy II, why aren't your family members with you?"Such a lovely child was left here just like that. If it weren't for her conscience, Iris really wanted to take this child home and raise it herself."Tania was over there, and so was Ethan," Izzy II pointed behind her, not far off. There stood a woman and several bodyguards, their gaze fixed intently in this direction. Not a single move escaped their watchful eyes.Iris understood in an instant, it wasn't that no one was watching her, but rather, there were too many people watching her. Perhaps the little one didn't want so many people following her, so those people could only watch her from a dist
Iris had spent the past three years, the years she could remember, living in the city of Serenova. She had grown accustomed to the pace of life and the environment in this city. She particularly loved the city's fashionable atmosphere and deep down, she didn't want to return to her home country to develop her career.But her father was very good to her, he gave a lot for her.Her mother passed away early, and her father, in order to take care of her, did not remarry. It could be said that he devoted all his thoughts and efforts to her throughout his life.Her father, in order to take care of her, had almost given up his own life, placing all his hopes on her. He gave her enough space and trust, allowing her to excel in the field she loved.This kindness, Iris had no way to repay. So, now that her father was old and wanted to return to his birthplace, she had no reason not to accompany him.Fortunately, the nature of her job was relatively flexible.
The StylePulse Show concluded, with Iris winning both the Newcomer Award and the Best Fashion Award, becoming the first young designer in the history of the StylePulse Show to win both the Newcomer Award and the Best Fashion Award.As Iris received the trophy, she also got a substantial amount of prize money. More importantly, she finally achieved her life's dream of becoming a designer recognized by professionals.For Iris, the most important thing was that, once she had status and position, she could naturally earn more and more money. Then, she could live in a bigger house with her father and lead a better life.Three years ago, Iris had suffered from a severe illness. After recovering from the illness, she had forgotten all her previous memories, she didn't even know who she was.Fortunately, her father was by her side, helping her recover her previous memories, and also helped her rediscover her talent for fashion design, which enabled her to achieve
Arriving at Misty's little house, at first glance of Misty, Quinn could hardly recognize it.In just a short period of absence, Misty, who was originally as fat as a round ball, had suddenly lost a lot of weight, becoming quite thin and flat.It lay in its little house, weak and powerless, looking as if it could take its last breath at any moment."Misty..." Quinn crouched beside it, calling it softly while reaching out to stroke its head."Woof woof--" Upon hearing Quinn's voice, Misty struggled to open its eyes. Its eyeballs rolled around, seemingly glistening with tears."Misty, don't be afraid. Daddy has called the doctor, and the doctor will be here soon." Quinn picked it up, holding it carefully in his arms."Woo woo--" Misty whimpered again, shaking its little head gently, as if saying it didn't want to see the doctor, it wanted to leave with its mother. But its mother was no longer there, and there was no point in it staying. It want
