Araminta was startled. Quinn had just kicked the leg of the chair clean off. If she had aimed that kick at her, would her leg be broken instead?Not wanting to confront Quinn directly, Araminta quietly tried to slip out. But Quinn wasn’t about to let her go that easily. She stretched out her leg and blocked Araminta's path."Has the problem been solved? Are you just going to leave? Are you this irresponsible?"Araminta glared at her. "Quinn, no matter what, I’m still your stepmother, your elder. Are you going to be so disrespectful to me?""Stepmother? I never acknowledged you as such! As for being disrespectful, that's just how I am."With that, Quinn slapped Araminta hard across the face. It was a fierce, forceful blow that left Araminta in shock. She couldn’t believe Quinn had the nerve to hit her. Before she could react, Quinn landed another slap, just as hard.Standing nearby, Luna felt a rush of satisfaction. Quinn never failed to impress her."Enough, Quinn, I…"Araminta

Victor sat in the front passenger seat as Quinn drove to the most famous burger restaurant in Jipsfort. She had already made a reservation before heading to the airport.However, she didn’t expect to run into Kimberly and her friends there. Kimberly hadn’t heard that Quinn had survived. When she saw her, she was utterly shocked."Quinn, you’re still alive?"What a way to put it! Just how much did Araminta and she wish she had died in that explosion?Victor was baffled by her tone. How could she talk like that? Quinny was standing here alive and well, and she seemed to be cursing her."I'm not dead. Are you disappointed? Were you already celebrating?" Quinn stared at Kimberly's eyes.Kimberly forced a laugh. She had indeed hoped Quinn had perished in the explosion. But with so many people around, she had to maintain her façade of kindness."Quinn, I don’t understand what you’re saying. Dad and I were really worried about you. We even went to the hospital to look for you yesterday

Victor handed the phone back to Quinn. She glanced at the screen before putting it to her ear."Hello."Quinn’s voice was as cold and indifferent as ever.Xavier felt like he was about to explode."Who are you with?" Xavier struggled to control his temper.Quinn frowned. Wasn't he overstepping?"Xavier, who I’m with is my business. Do you need something? If not, I’m hanging up."Xavier felt like he was suffering from internal injuries."Where are you? I’m coming to see you." Xavier was determined to find out who the man with her was."I’m busy. There's no need to come." Quinn finished speaking and hung up.She didn’t like Xavier’s questioning tone. After all, they were just friends with benefits. There was no need for him to get so involved.Quinn switched her phone to silent mode and tossed it aside."Who was that? Your boyfriend?" Victor asked, testing the waters."Weren’t you hungry? Let’s eat. And from now on, don’t touch my phone. I don’t like it."She was very prote

No man in the world could tolerate his girlfriend checking into a hotel room with another man."The photos are absolutely real. If you don't believe me, you can check the hotel surveillance. That can't be faked."You followed her from the borderlands all the way here. And what did she do? She went behind your back and booked a room with another man!"Xavier snatched the phone from her hand and smashed it against her face."If you can't speak properly, then don't speak at all. Or else, I'll make sure you never speak again."Kimberly winced in pain. She didn't expect this man to use violence against her."What are you saying? You can't be okay with someone cheating on you, can you? You need to man up."After saying this, the terrified Kimberly quickly ran off.Xavier punched the steering wheel.Who was this guy? The way he and Quinn interacted looked far too close for comfort. And it bothered him.He didn't believe she would go to a hotel room with another man. Yet, even just s

"Hello everyone, I'm Victor Compton." Victor greeted everyone briefly, without confirming whether he was the legendary Victor. The truth was, too many people sought him out. He was tired of dealing with them. As a result, he always kept his whereabouts a secret.After introducing him to the project team members, Quinn led him to the office prepared for him."Victor, I hope you won't mind the basic facilities we have here." As a top data analyst, Victor was accustomed to receiving the best wherever he went."Quinny, no need to be so stiff! We go way back, remember? Don't worry. As long as I'm here, there won't be any problems with the data."Was that man your boyfriend?"Victor couldn't help but ask. If he was, then what about their junior who had been harboring a crush on Quinn? That kid had always liked her."No, he's not."Her relationship with Xavier was far more complicated than that. She didn't know how to define what was between them right now.After handing the d

Wasn't it money that Kara wanted?Kara gently embraced him. "Mr. Jowell, I'm not interested in your money. I like you very much." Kara's eyes were filled with affection. This made Maurice feel quite accomplished. He never imagined that at over fifty years old, he would have a girl in her twenties so infatuated with him! Oh, his irresistible charm!"I love you too." Maurice gave Kara's bust a playful squeeze. "This has gotten bigger.""It's all because of your hard work that it's grown so much."Kara got onto the bed, which was heavy with Maurice's musky scent.Men—they all liked them young.Men especially loved young women who were very promiscuous and knew how to please them.Meanwhile, Araminta was fuming after being hung up on. What could be so important that he would hang up on her like that? He had never done this before. No matter how busy he was, he would always explain himself. Could it be that he had another woman?Seeing Araminta's distressed express

Quinn and Xavier were not in a romantic relationship. Why should she care about what Xavier thought?"What's wrong?" Victor couldn't help but ask when he saw that she was lost in thought. "Is it inconvenient?""No, let's go! Didn't you want to go to the bar? I'll take you there."Quinn took Victor to Nocturnal Club, the largest nightclub in Jipsfort. They had been here the last time too.After arriving, Victor ordered a lot of drinks and handed her a glass. "Do as you like."Victor genuinely enjoyed drinking; even when he was alone, he liked going to the bars. Quinn wasn't a prude, so she toasted with him.Soon, Nadia arrived. Quinn introduced the two, and Nadia greeted Victor."Where's Xavier? Why didn't he come with you? You two have been inseparable lately!"Xavier had been by Quinn's side constantly. His absence today did strike her as odd!"Nadia, he and I aren't involved the way you think. He doesn't have to be by my side all the time."Xavier wasn't even he

In the end, Quinn still let Xavier come.Xavier arrived quickly, and as soon as he did, he saw Quinn in the nightclub.The woman was a standout; no matter where she went, she was always the most captivating."Hey!"Xavier greeted Nadia.Seeing him arrive, Nadia smiled. As expected, wherever Quinn was, this man was sure to follow.He really liked Quinn."Hi."Nadia hooked her arm around Quinn's wrist."He really does like you, huh!"Quinn gave no reply. Was he into her? Love wasn't always the driving force between men and women. Physical chemistry often played a more significant role."Quinny, you haven't introduced us yet."Xavier looked over at Victor."Victor Compton, my senior."Quinn was brief and to the point."Hello, Victor. You're her senior, huh? I'm Xavier."Victor felt odd.Xavier, the ruler of the borderlands, was emphasizing Victor being Quinn's senior.No matter how he heard it, it had a sinister undertone to it!Especially since the look Xavier was gi

"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
