Chapter 115

Author: Miss Jean-Jean
With that in mind, Samuel said, "I'll report to work at the company this afternoon, Dad. However, I have a request—I want to lead this project."

If he were in charge of this project, wouldn't that give him more opportunities to get closer to her?

Quinn and her team headed back to Four Seasons Incorporated, with Luna behind the wheel.

In the distance, Quinn spotted Xavier's Cullinan. She hadn't looked at her phone during lunch with Stanley, and she had noticed that he had sent her multiple messages that she hadn't gotten around to answering. It was already 2:00 pm—so how long had he been waiting here?

"Please pull over just ahead, Ms. Lewitt."

After Luna pulled over to the side of the road, Quinn hopped out and said, "You guys head to the company first. I'll be there in a minute."

With that, Quinn went over to Xavier's car and got into the passenger seat.

"How long have you been waiting?"

"I've been waiting for two hours, 13 minutes, and 48 seconds," Xavier complained.

    "What happened?"Quinn's expression turned icy. How dare Araminta mess with her people?Luna, who was clearly distressed, quickly recounted everything she had overheard.How were they supposed to complete the project without their team? That old hag Araminta really had some nerve."Call the four of them back right now." Araminta had no right to fire them.Seeing that Quinn hadn't gone up, Xavier knew something was wrong. He got out of the car. "What's going on?""Nothing," Quinn replied, though her entire demeanor radiated anger. The kind of anger that was downright terrifying.Xavier took her hand and tried to soothe her. "Don't be mad. No matter what happened, we can fix it."Quinn nodded. "I know. You should go back. I can handle this.""Are you sure you don't need my help?" In fact, this project could be handled with just one word from him. She didn't need to go through all this trouble."I'm sure." Quinn declined.Xavier sighed. He felt helpless. "Alright, then. But if

    "Ms. Jowell!" Luna panicked as the situation escalated.If this continued, Quinn might end up in trouble. After all, she was alone in this confrontation.Sure enough, Araminta's secretary had already called for security. "What are you all standing around for? Get Ms. Jowell off her! She's gone mad!"Mad? Maybe so. Who else but a madwoman would choke someone in front of so many witnesses?Everyone knew Lisa was notorious for her insanity. Was it really surprising that her daughter might carry that same madness in her genes?The security guards moved forward, but Quinn blocked them with one hand."If any of you dare to touch me, don't blame me for what happens next."Araminta's face had turned a sickly shade of purple. She could no longer bear the pressure and had no choice but to apologize."Fine, I'm sorry! I was wrong! Is that enough?"Quinn wanted an apology, so there it was."Don't apologize to me. Apologize to them."Araminta's expression twisted with rage.Where was Ma

    Xavier held Quinn's hand.Just as the Cullinan came to a stop, Ian rushed over to them. "Xav, Ms. Quinn, you guys got here just in time. The race is about to start."Tonight marked the first round of the elimination races, and Ian was one of the participants.Xavier let go of Quinn's hand, stepped out of the car, and opened the door for her."Ms. Quinn, you two have fun. I've got to go get ready." Ian, who was dressed in a sleek racing suit, radiated youthful energy."Be careful," Xavier advised.Racing was an exhilarating yet dangerous sport, where every competition held the potential for accidents or even fatalities."Don't worry. I'm pretty good at this." Ian brimmed with confidence."Sam, isn't that your dream girl?" Samuel's friend immediately saw Quinn.Dressed in all-black racing gear, Samuel turned around. Sure enough, he spotted Quinn. After setting his helmet aside, he made his way toward her."Ms. Jowell, I didn't expect to see you at the race."Xavier frowned at

    Xavier planned to arrange for the red race car to be delivered to Quinn. He even planned to customize it personally for her.Quinn wouldn't know that Xavier had everything planned in his mind.Honestly, she wasn't that impoverished.She owned a race car that she had personally modified, but with so many things on her plate since her return, she hadn't had the time to bring it back.As the race began, Xavier led Quinn to the grandstands.Racing was a sport for the affluent, given the significant costs of maintenance and inspections. In the stands, many of Jipsfort's elite were present, and they naturally recognized Quinn.A few of them took a video of Quinn and Xavier in the stands and shared it in their Jipsfort elite group chat."Hey guys, guess who I ran into on Protrie Highway?"The picture of the couple was attached."Damn, it's Quinn and her man!""This photo is too good! Did you use a beauty filter?"Was she really that beautiful in real life?"No filter. It's the ori

    Ian glanced at the car that had deliberately cut him off. It was the same racer who had lost to him previously and had shown clear dissatisfaction.Now, that racer was intentionally blocking him.Ian's skills were impressive. He and his opponent subtly challenged each other on the track.In a sharp turn, the opponent deliberately collided with Ian's car. Ian couldn't avoid it in time, and his car spun out of control, flipping over completely."Oh no! What's happening? How could there be such an accident?""I had high hopes for him. How did he end up flipping? Racing is really too dangerous. I hope he's not seriously hurt."Seeing Ian's car flip over, Xavier immediately set aside his other concerns. He released Quinn's hand and said, "Stay here. I'm going to check on him."Ian came with him. He couldn't afford to let Ian get into any trouble.Knowing how much Xavier cared for Ian, Quinn grabbed his hand. "I'm coming with you. Don't worry. Race cars have safety airbags. He'll be

    When a car flipped, the greatest fear was that it might catch fire. This would lead to an explosion."Xav, take Ms. Quinn and leave! I'll wait for the rescue team here. I'll be fine. Go now! The car might explode any moment!"Ian knew something was wrong with his car. Someone must have tampered with it. Otherwise, this wouldn't have happened."Shut up!" Xavier quickened his efforts to free Ian. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't loosen the seatbelt.He turned to Quinn. "Quinny, you should go. I'll handle this." He didn't want to put her in danger."No," Quinn replied firmly. She couldn't possibly leave in such a dire situation."Quinn, go." Xavier didn't want her to stay here. "Please, listen to me."Ian was just like his brother. He couldn't leave him behind."Fine, I'll go." Quinn stood up and walked away.Xavier finally breathed a sigh of relief as he watched her leave."Xav, you need to leave too. The car's going to blow."Yet Xavier had no intention of abandon

    The massive explosion sent a wave of excitement coursing through Kimberly.If Quinn burned to death in that blast, everything would return to the way it used to be.Ever since Quinn's return, Kimberly's life had been a mess. But if Quinn were dead, no one would stand in the way of her future.Kimberly's heart raced with anticipation. She rushed to find Araminta and shared the news."Mom, look!""What is it?" Araminta was in a foul mood after returning from work. Something had been bothering her all day.The secretary she had arranged for Maurice had suddenly decided to resign, despite the generous benefits. It made no sense. Had something happened that she wasn't aware of?"The car exploded! Quinn was inside. This time, she's done for."With such a massive explosion, Quinn was either dead or horribly disfigured. Either outcome was thrilling enough to make Kimberly's heart soar."Really? Quinn was really in that car?"Quinn had just secured the qualification for Kane Group's b

    Ian was underneath Quinn."Ian," she called out softly, but he was already unconscious.It took a few moments before Xavier finally came to."Quinn, are you okay?" The first thing he did when he regained consciousness was check on her."I'm fine." Quinn felt a wave of relief wash over her as she heard his voice. At least he was conscious.Xavier had severe injuries on his back. Quinn summoned all her strength to push him away. "I'm going to get the rescue team."He had protected her so well that she barely had any injuries."Okay." Xavier was calm despite the searing pain in his back. As long as she and Ian were safe, nothing else mattered.Quinn quickly summoned the rescue team. They arrived and carefully lifted both Ian and Xavier onto stretchers and into an ambulance.Quinn climbed in with them.The doctors immediately began assessing Ian's condition, which was grave.Xavier sat beside Quinn, leaning heavily on her shoulder. His back burned with pain, but he remained sile

    Whoever said women lack desire was wrong. Sometimes, a woman's longing could catch the man off guard.Faced with Quinn's boldness, Xavier found it impossible to resist. His desire for her was burning within him.Since being with her, he'd wanted her constantly, and tonight was no exception.Quinn tilted her head, and Xavier landed a peck on her neck, one of her most alluring features.His kiss felt like a gentle spring breeze as he began softly at her lips.That light touch flipped a switch within her. It sent electric tingles racing through her body. It was as if he wielded some mysterious power.

She felt as though she were immersed in a sweet dream, and his kisses were the leading melody of this ethereal experience.From her lips to her neck and then to her chest, each kiss ignited a flame deep within her. She cou

    "I can't go to the hospital. I messed with the wrong people," Edison murmured. He remembered Quinn's warning. She was connected to Xavier, and he wouldn't dare provoke him."Who did you mess with?" Frank asked, but Edison brushed him off. "How's it going with the research institute?"At the mention of it, Frank hesitated. Was Quinn really that influential? Could Edison's beating be connected to her?"It's... fine. You should rest, Dad. I have to go study," Frank replied. He dared not mention how Quinn had twisted his arm.Meanwhile, Xavier and Quinn escorted Edgar back to the hospital.Edgar clearly didn't want to stay. "Ms. Quinn, I'd really like to go home. I don't like staying in the hospital." His days in the hospital felt like years dragging by—an experience that was anything but pleasant."Did the doctor say you could go home?" Quinn asked."I'm really fine, Ms. Quinn.""Only when the doctor says so." Quinn ignored his complaints."It's suffocating in here. I need to che

    Edison's plump body crashed to the floor with a heavy thud.Quinn stepped on his hand, eliciting a pained scream from him.Edison stared up at her, bewildered. This young lady, who looked like an angel, was surprisingly brutal."Do you know what Edgar looked like when I found him?" Quinn's voice was icy.Edgar was like a younger brother to her, and she wouldn't stand for anyone hurting him.Edison fell silent after realizing he had underestimated her."How do you plan to pay for this, Edison?" Quinn picked up a fork from the table.Edison tried to get up, but with her foot on his hand, he couldn't move at all. "What are you doing? Let me tell you—"Before he could finish his sentence, Quinn drove the fork through his palm. His screams echoed in the room.Edison had never imagined they would dare to act so brazenly in Dudore. As he looked at his bleeding hand, his entire body trembled in fear. "W-What do you want?"The two bodyguards looked pale at the sight. They had never en

    Since they were going to take revenge, Quinn had already ensured they knew the Faulkner family's whereabouts.The current head of the Faulkner family, Edison Faulkner, was responsible for what happened to Edgar. He was also Frank's father.Edison had a dinner engagement that night at a high-end clubhouse in Dudore.Though once a prestigious family, the Faulkner family had been struggling in recent years, but Edison was unwilling to accept that decline.He was determined to send Frank to the research institute, hoping that would restore the family's status. Tonight's dinner was meant to entertain higher-ups from the institute.As the glasses clinked and laughter filled the air, the door to the private room swung open unexpectedly.Edison frowned. Who was the blind fool who chose to enter at this hour? He already had people guarding the door."Who is it? I specifically said no one is allowed to enter!" Edison snapped.The higher-ups from the institute also wore grim expressions.

    "Kid, you should just go face your punishment," Quinn said, declining."Come on, miss. Help me out here!" the young man pleaded."I can't help you. You can go now."The young man looked disappointed, but since Quinn had clearly rejected him, he had no choice but to leave."That poor guy," Nadia joked.Xavier, however, didn't share her sentiment. "I think Quinny handled it well. If she gave just anyone her number, she'd be in trouble someday."Besides, it wasn't like their game had anything to do with her. Why should she comply?They sat in the bar for over an hour.Quinn had something to attend to, so she took Nadia home first."Where are you going? Do you need my help?" Nadia asked. Although she wasn't good at fighting, she was willing to lend a hand."Just get some rest. It's nothing major. I'll handle it and be back before you know it," Quinn replied."Are you sure you'll be back tonight?" Nadia glanced at Xavier. She knew he couldn't leave her alone."Go home. Just make

    "Nada, this fish is delicious. You should try it," Quinn said, passing the dish over.Nadia took a piece and nodded in approval. "This place really has great flavor. We should come here again."With both of them being people who didn't particularly enjoy cooking, they would probably end up eating out frequently."If you like it, I can have them deliver to your house. I'll get the manager to give you a business card later," Xavier offered.This restaurant didn't just have excellent food. The hygiene and service were top-notch as well."Really? I thought such a high-end restaurant wouldn't do deliveries.""They do," Xavier said. It was just a matter of asking anyway.After dinner, Nadia wanted to unwind a bit. Since arriving in Dudore, she hadn't had the chance to visit a bar, and Dudore was known for its nightlife.Now that she was here, she naturally had to experience it for herself."Quinny, are you heading back to the research institute tonight? If not, let's go to a bar for

    Lisa's tone was especially gentle. After nearly three months of treatment, her condition had improved significantly.Gradually, she was becoming the serene Lisa she once was.Once the call ended, Quinn gazed out the window, oblivious to the fact that Xavier was still holding her hand.Xavier was holding her hand with one hand and gripping the steering wheel with the other. It wasn't until they reached the restaurant that he finally let go.He dropped Quinn and Nadia at the restaurant entrance while he went to find parking. The parking area was quite far, so he didn't ask them to come along.As he drove off, Quinn and Nadia waited at the entrance."Quinny, it's great to see Lisa coming back to herself," Nadia said with a smile.Although the past five years had been challenging, it was comforting to see everything getting better.Quinn felt a wave of joy as she reflected on Lisa's remarkable recovery. Given how bad Lisa had been before, it brought her immense happiness to see her

    Nadia opened the car door and hopped in.Quinn wanted to join her at the back, but she declined. "Just sit in the front. It's a hassle switching around."Xavier smiled at this. Nadia, indeed, knew how to read the situation.She returned his smile.Xavier was a big shot, after all. Of course, she had to be wise."How's the hiring going? Do you need my help?" Quinn turned to Nadia."Don't worry. I've already hired three people. Since Sully is just starting out, I want to take it slow. I don't want to hire too many at once.""Alright, I'll leave it to you, then." Quinn was just the investor. She wouldn't interfere too much with how Nadia chose to run things."By the way, Quinny, how's everything at the research institute? You need to be cautious around those who hurt Edgar," Nadia said with a hint of worry."I know. Don't worry. There's no need to be concerned about them."Nadia shook her head. "Quinny, this is Dudore. You should be careful." People here would do anything for pr

    Kimberly was also present. Noticing Simon's concern for Quinn made her fists clench unconsciously.She had her own plans to go out today. Gregory was going to introduce her to a big shot. He was slowly coming to recognize her potential and would provide her with all his resources."Simon, you know I'm not Maurice's daughter. I'm Gregory's daughter. Gregory Thorpe from the Thorpe family of Dudore. You're aware of that, right?" Kimberly spoke with pride.Simon looked into her eyes. "So what?""My dad is introducing me to a big shot today. Do you want to come? If you agree to get back with me now, I'll overlook everything that happened before.""No, thanks. I really don't need that. You go ahead," Simon replied firmly.In the past, it had always been Shania pushing him. Yet deep down, he wanted to stand on his own. It might seem naive, but he wanted to give it a try.Seeing him try to walk away, Kimberly grabbed his hand. "Simon, don't you want to get your mom out soon?"Why was h
