"I used to think Simon was great, but compared to Quinn's current partner, Simon just doesn't measure up."All the women present dreamed of being in Xavier's arms, while all the men there wished they were the ones holding Quinn.She truly was the most beautiful woman in Jipsfort. As soon as she returned, all the other beauties in Jipsfort paled in comparison.Samuel was watching the whole time. Quinn first partnered with Victor for a dance, then with Xavier.As for him, he was too afraid to even ask her for a dance. He feared she would turn him down. Upon seeing his son in such a state, Stanley helplessly shook his head and said, "If you're interested in someone, don't be afraid to make a move. Unrequited love only brings heartache.""What if she doesn't like me back, Dad? Am I perhaps not good enough for her?" Samuel, who was usually so confident, was suddenly feeling insecure.Upon hearing that, Stanley was genuinely taken aback. "You're my son, Samuel. How could you possibly
"There's really no need. Thank you for the offer, though." Quinn politely declined the offer.Upon hearing that, Samuel was disheartened. However, he didn't want to make things awkward, as she really did look exhausted. "Have a safe trip home, then." After Quinn nodded in acknowledgment, she walked out with Xavier.Samuel's gaze followed them until they were out of sight.As soon as Stanley and Samuel returned, Shania seized the opportunity, hoping to make another attempt.Despite her efforts, Stanley was evasive and noncommittal, leaving her feeling anxious. In the end, Stanley grew tired of her persistence and made an excuse to take his leave.Shania was furious. How could Stanley treat her in such a way! Didn't he realize that Jipsfort was their turf and how disrespectful his behavior was? Shania was in a foul mood, so she left the banquet hall with Simon and Kimberly.As soon as they stepped outside, they spotted Xavier carrying Quinn.Quinn was quite slender, and being
Quinn was rendered speechless.Xavier walked over, opened the passenger-side door, and slid into the back seat, joining Quinn.Despite having only had champagne, they both decided not to drive. And since the chauffeur Xavier had called for hadn't arrived yet, they had no choice but to wait.Xavier couldn't take his eyes off Quinn's feet as he sat down. They were simply too stunning.Quinn felt self-conscious under his intense gaze.At that moment, the atmosphere in the car became somewhat ambiguous. She couldn't help but recall the time on the winding mountain road when they indulged in a moment of wild passion.It was obvious that Xavier was recalling the scene from that night as well. His throat went dry at the memory.He couldn't hold back any longer and immediately pulled Quinn onto his lap."Cut it out, Xavier. The chauffeur will be arriving any minute now."Xavier's firm grip encircled Quinn's waist. She was wearing a gown, so the way she was straddled on his lap made he
"What's wrong, Xav? Are you okay?" Joshua couldn't help but ask after hearing the commotion."I'm fine. You should just keep your eyes on the road.""Oh, okay!"Joshua, being very perceptive, raised the partition without any prompting from Xavier.Given the intense nature of the scenes, it was best that he didn't watch, even though he didn't actually see anything.Upon seeing Joshua raise the partition, Quinn glared at Xavier and snapped, "What are you yelling about?"Xavier rested against Quinn's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "You're going to break me with how hard you're squeezing me. Can I not even let out a sound?"Quinn did squeeze him too hard, which felt both painful and pleasurable."Do you still want it?" Quinn asked menacingly."Of course! As long as it's from you, I want it—no matter what it is," Xavier said earnestly. His sincerity shone through his typically suave facade. Given that Joshua was still in the car, Quinn didn't want to take it too far, so she s
Quinn was truly rendered speechless. She simply closed her eyes and didn't bother to respond to him.She was itching to make a move, and her body was also getting restless, but she knew it wasn't the time for it.Before long, they finally reached Waterfront Villa.After parking the car, Joshua got out and said, "I'll be heading back now, Xav."Xavier waited until Joshua had left before getting out of the car.It seemed like Quinn was truly exhausted. Despite her initial enthusiasm, she was now fast asleep.Xavier had no choice but to gently carry her out of the car.Upon seeing how soundly she was sleeping in his arms, he couldn't bring himself to disturb her slumber and directly carried her to the main bedroom.However, as soon as Xavier laid her down, Quinn suddenly opened her eyes."Do you want to do it?"Xavier really didn't mean to wake her up.Quinn responded by yanking Xavier's tie and pulling him toward her."Aren't you fond of flirting?"Xavier took Quinn's respon
Xavier was undoubtedly an excellent lover. Be it in the borderlands or in business, he was decisive and ruthless. He left no room for error.Yet, when it came to Quinn, he was incredibly patient. In matters of intimacy, he never indulged his own desires first. He always sought to please her first. He went out of his way to serve her like a queen.Xavier was Quinn's first man, and he had led her in exploring different positions. Each one offered a new experience. Everything he did was motivated by his true feelings.His kisses trailed from her forehead to her lips and down to her collarbone. Each kiss left a trail of tingling sensations in its wake."Come on. Spread your legs," Xavier commanded.His kisses slowly made their way down, and then, unexpectedly, he kissed her in that intimate place.Quinn couldn't quite handle it at first, but at that moment, Xavier was very assertive. In the end, it felt incredibly good. She wasn't sure how to describe it, nor did she want to. She was
"I couldn't hold back last night, so you're probably really exhausted right now."Xavier gently carried her downstairs and handed her a glass of warm water. Quinn sat on the couch and slowly drank the water.Upon seeing that it was almost time, she knew she had to leave for the office.It was finally the day for Kane Group's project bidding. It was very important to her since she needed this to convince the board of directors of Four Seasons Incorporated to wholeheartedly back her in taking control of the company."Don't worry, I'll drop you off right after breakfast. You won't be late."It didn't really matter, even if she showed up a bit late. Stanley would definitely cooperate with her, and those at Xandor Group were destined to be left in the dust.After drinking some warm water, Quinn ate a bit of breakfast.After all, Xavier had gotten up early in the morning to make breakfast. It would have been a shame if she didn't eat any of it.As he watched her eat, Xavier suddenly
Quinn had no interest in debating with him. His choices were his own to make, and she had no right to interfere.Xavier unexpectedly got out of the car and accompanied her to the project department.Upon noticing Xavier, Victor immediately hid behind her and asked, "What's he doing here? Is he here because of the dance last night? There's no reason for him to act like this!"Even though Victor enjoyed picking on Xavier, he knew he wouldn't be able to withstand Xavier's beating if they actually got into a fight."He said he's here to become my bodyguard."Victor was rendered speechless. Xavier, the ruler of the borderlands, actually reduced himself to become Quinn's bodyguard. How unbelievable!"We should probably head out now. Come on, let's go," Quinn urged. She did not want to waste any more time."Alright, let's go," Victor said solemnly. He was more than competent when it came to serious business.Luna had also finalized everything for their proposal. It was their project t
