"Excuse me, sir. Did you get any underwear? Your girlfriend probably needs those too," the cashier gently reminded him.It hadn't really occurred to Xavier, so he went back to the shelves to pick out some underwear.Kimberly stopped following and went to pay for her purchases.It didn't matter if he was good-looking and considerate since Xavier was still a poor man!Kimberly tried to convince herself that Simon was the better one. After all, they had been together for five years, and those five years had been quite good.They were going through a rough patch because of Quinn's return. She was confident that everything would go back to normal and that there would be no further issues as long as Quinn was gone.She had faith in their relationship.Despite repeatedly telling herself that she was happy with Simon, a part of her still felt dissatisfied. Why was Xavier so kind toward Quinn? He even went as far as to buy her sanitary pads.During her last period, she had asked Simo

Quinn intended to change the bed sheets, but it turned out that Xavier had beaten her to it. He had already removed them and placed them in the washer.It seemed like Xavier was rather quick on his feet.She had assumed that someone of his stature would be averse to coming into contact with menstrual blood.As soon as she came out, Xavier handed her a cup of water with brown sugar.Upon seeing the drink, Quinn felt a strong aversion to it.Xavier couldn't help but laugh when he noticed her disgusted expression. Quinn, as always, was very averse to drinking traditional medicine."It's only water with brown sugar, not traditional medicine. Do you really have to look like I'm about to poison you?"He would never do anything to hurt her.After hearing that, Quinn accepted the drink. She had always suffered from menstrual cramps because of her body constitution.However, she was accustomed to enduring pain, and her menstrual cramps were no exception. She always gritted her teeth an

Xavier was a dangerous man to be around. A single mistake could lead to a disaster."Victor, I know you're all looking out for me, but I've come a long way since then. I'm no longer the helpless young girl from five years ago.""Alright, Quinny."Quinn was in such a pitiful and broken state when Victor first met her.As the sole female mentee of Frederick Sinclair, she was naturally cherished and protected by Victor and all the other fellow mentees.Due to her past trauma, Quinn had always kept her distance from others.Yet, regardless of the situation, they were always there to lend a hand whenever she needed them."We'll always have your back, no matter what."Not even Xavier would be spared if he dared to hurt Quinn.Quinn and Victor went straight to the project team.Ever since Victor joined the team, their work progressed rapidly.Quinn and Victor spent the entire day with the project team to finalize the final details of the plan.Upon seeing how fast she was progress

"You've always wanted to get into the research institute, right? Well, now's your chance to show them all what you're made of. It's just a bunch of idle gossip anyway. They're not going to say it to your face, so what's the big deal?""Can't you just leave me alone, Mom? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be in this situation."He truly regretted it. Perhaps he had never truly let go of Quinn. However, he had always been too afraid to fight for what he wanted."Simon Xandor!" Shania bellowed, clearly not expecting him to blame her for everything."Everything I've done is for your sake. How dare you talk to me like that? How could you be so heartless? You're no different from your father. You've both been bewitched by the mother-daughter duo, Lisa and Quinn!" Shania had always been very sensitive to this issue.Simon was truly exhausted. "Give it a rest, Mom. Maybe Dad left because he couldn't handle your controlling nature."After all, no one could ever stand being controlled by

Shania brought Simon and Kimberly along to meet with Stanley. Xandor Group was also in the running for the bidding. She believed that their company would definitely win the bid. They were dead set on winning the project."It's been a while, Mr. Kane," Shania said as she offered him a toast.Although the Xandors were the wealthiest in Jipsfort, they paled in comparison to the affluent families in Dudore. Given that the Kane Group was a local powerhouse in Dudore, she was eager to foster a strong alliance with them, hoping to benefit from their influence."It's truly been a while, Mrs. Xandor."After a brief chat, Shania steered the conversation toward the project. "Please have faith in Xandor Group's capabilities, Mr. Kane. I'm sure we'll have a very pleasant collaboration on this project.Shania completely dismissed the other competitors. She believed that they were in no way a match for Xandor Group."We'll find out who wins the bid tomorrow. As always, Kane Group is committed t

Xavier had gone to pick up Quinn, but unexpectedly, Victor was there as well. It turned out that both of them had extended invitations to her.Without a moment's hesitation, Quinn had proposed that they all go together, thus ensuring that neither of them would feel disappointed.Upon entering the banquet hall, Xavier immediately wrapped his arm around Quinn's waist.He then cast a triumphant glance at Victor. His expression clearly implied that he was Quinn's man.Despite their arrival as a group, it was clear that he was Quinn's partner for the evening and Victor was merely someone who had tagged along.Upon seeing that, Victor couldn't help but scoff.How childish of him! He never expected someone as formidable as Xavier to be so immature. Did he really like Quinn that much?Quinn wanted to slap his hand away. Yet, upon realizing that everyone was watching them, she decided not to bother with it.As soon as Quinn showed up, Simon felt a strange pull toward her. His gaze was i

"All I know is that Quinn will also be participating in tomorrow's bidding. Do you think she'll win this project, Mrs. Xandor?"Shania sneered and replied, "Quinn? She doesn't stand a chance of getting this project!"Shania was rather pissed. Everyone in Jipsfort kissed up to the Xandors, but Stanley completely disregarded her. Even though he was indifferent toward her, he was exceptionally friendly toward Quinn.It was a sight that filled one with envy and resentment.…Meanwhile, Quinn introduced Stanley to Victor. She said, "Good evening, Mr. Stanley. I'd like you to meet Victor Compton, our data analyst for this project."Stanley naturally knew who Victor was. It came as a surprise that Four Seasons Incorporated managed to recruit him."It's an honor to finally meet you. I have long admired your work and have always wanted to bring you on board at Kane Group. Unfortunately, we never had the chance to collaborate."He wasn't just buttering him up; he really meant it.Kane G

Meanwhile, having discovered Victor's impressive credentials, Shania wanted to recruit him into her company. After all, who in the business world hadn't heard of Victor?Upon seeing that Quinn wasn't with Victor, Shania approached him with a glass of champagne.Victor couldn't help but raise his brow as he saw her approaching him. He was already used to these situations, so he wasn't surprised at all. However, knowing that she was Quinn's enemy, he decided to play a little trick on her."Good evening, Mr. Compton. I'm the president of Xandor Group. I've been looking forward to meeting you after having heard so much about you." "Oh, you flatter me. It's just a little reputation. Nothing more.""You're far too modest, Mr. Compton. Given your exceptional talent, I believe you would be an invaluable asset to our company. We have a great benefits package here that's way better than what you're getting at Four Seasons Incorporated."Shania immediately stated her purpose. She believ

"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
