"You better go find someone else for this job! We won't be able to help you with this." Given what happened to Aquila and Mason, they definitely couldn't get involved in this matter.With that, they immediately hung up the phone. They had no desire to be involved with the Jowell family in any way."All the other gang members aren't answering my calls. What on earth is going on? What's happening in the borderlands?"Not knowing anything was what made the situation all the more terrifying."We'll have to hire a professional assassin then. I've heard about a mysterious assassin organization abroad. You should find a way to reach out to them."They were more than willing to pay any price to have Quinn killed.Maurice leveraged his extensive network to connect with the assassin organization and managed to recruit a top-tier assassin.…Upon returning from her video conference, Quinn found that Nadia had successfully lulled Lisa to sleep."Is everything taken care of?" Nadia asked w
Upon waking up to an empty bed, Quinn quickly sat up from the bed. She looked around the room, her heart sinking as she realized Lisa wasn't around.She got up to look for her, only to find Lisa and Xavier sitting at the dining table eating breakfast.As soon as she saw Quinny was up, Lisa called out, "Come quick, Quinny! You've got to try this breakfast Xav got us. It's delicious!"Lisa had always been wary of strangers, so it was strange to hear her call Xavier by his nickname, especially considering it was their first meeting."Come have breakfast with us. You've been neglecting your meals these past two days," Xavier said with a grin.Quinn walked over as Xavier stood up and pulled out her chair. She took a seat right across from him.Upon seeing how much Lisa was enjoying her breakfast, Quinn decided to eat a little too. Before long, Nadia and Ian joined them, and they all ate breakfast together.Nadia had slept in. Upon leaving her room, she saw Ian waiting for her outside
When he noticed her concern, Xavier gently took Quinn's hand and said, "Didn't I mention before that I know a really capable psychologist? If you're willing, I can ask him to wait for us in Jipsfort, and we can arrange a meeting with him and your mother. I assure you, he's highly skilled. Please trust me on this, okay?"Quinn withdrew her hand and nodded. She said, "Alright. Thank you, Xavier."After receiving her approval, Xavier immediately called the other party and asked them to meet up in Jipsfort."Why don't you and Lisa stay at my place when we get back to Jipsfort?" Nadia asked.Quinn had been living with the Jowell family, but now that Araminta was there as well, it wouldn't be appropriate for Lisa to return to that place."Come on over and stay with me instead!" Xavier had already instructed someone to tidy up the villa."I've already purchased a villa, so my mom and I will stay there instead. You guys don't have to worry about us," Quinn explained. She couldn't possibl
Upon hearing that, Nadia's eyes suddenly welled up with tears."He's busy at the moment."They were currently on the plane, so Quinn decided to avoid bringing up those painful topics. She didn't want to upset Lisa further, especially without a doctor nearby."Oh, okay," Lisa replied, sounding disappointed.After spending some time with them, Lisa went back to sleep. She was too exhausted these last two days, and her body hadn't fully recovered yet.Nadia reached out and took Quinn's hand while hoping to provide some solace."I'm fine, Nads. You don't have to worry about me."She decided to tell Lisa everything after getting off the plane and returning home. Perhaps confronting the truth head-on was the only way to truly move forward."You should get some sleep too," Xavier said to Quinn."You should definitely get some rest, Quinny." After all, they would be swamped with work once they return to Jipsfort.At that moment, Ian sought out Xavier with a troubled expression."Wha
Maurice hurled his phone at the coffee table in a fit of rage, causing the screen to crack upon impact. Upon seeing this, Araminta instantly knew that something was amiss. "What's wrong?""I can't get in touch with the assassins."Araminta was rendered speechless and a shiver involuntarily ran down her spine. Quinn was simply too terrifying! What in the world was going on here?She was merely a young lady. What kind of backing did she have that Shadow Eagle Gang and the assassin organization were powerless against her? If she were to return to Jipsfort, wouldn't it mean their demise?"What's going on with Quinn, Maurice? How can she be so formidable?" If Quinn returned safely, would she even spare them? Maurice shook his head in response. He was as much in the dark as her. If he had known, he wouldn't have felt so helpless. "What are we supposed to do now? I have no ideas left." He was frightened as well. After all, they were after Quinn's life. If she came back, there was
As soon as Shelly asked Darius for help, he readily agreed to it.However, as soon as he got involved, Xavier became aware of it."Darius has gotten himself involved in the situation, Xav."Given that Shelly and Darius were in a relationship, it was no surprise that Darius would interfere with this."Give him everything he's after. If they're looking for a fight, let's give them one, but let's do it legally. We're law-abiding citizens, after all."Before long, Darius handed over the evidence to Shelly, and she immediately sent it to Shania."You have to bring Quinn down this time, Mom," Shelly said. Her dislike for Quinn was clear. "Don't worry, I'll make sure she never recovers from this." Shania was incredibly delighted after obtaining what she wanted."Darius is a real keeper, Shelly. All you have to do is ask him, and he can get it done."After all, Darius was able to accomplish what they couldn’t discover with ease. Shelly should never let go of a man like that."Got i
As the car closed in again, Ian deliberately crashed into it.After getting out and seeing the damage to his car, the driver's temper flared. He was about to unleash his rage until he noticed Ian's intimidating demeanor.He couldn't help but trail off on his insult. "You…""I don't know who you're working for, but I suggest you back off. Otherwise, it won't end with just a mere collision next time."With that, Ian drove away.Upon hearing that, the driver didn't dare to pursue them any further. Ian's menacing demeanor was too much to handle.…Xavier drove straight to Quinn's newly purchased villa, which was already furnished and spotless.Edgar had taken it upon himself to have the place spruced up for Lisa's arrival. Given that Lisa was returning, Quinn had naturally prepared everything well in advance. There were over a dozen professional bodyguards stationed in the villa, all of whom Quinn had trained personally.After getting out of the car, Xavier opened the door and h
"Alright," Quinn agreed without putting up a fuss.She wished Lisa could recover so that she could once again be the child who sought comfort and affection in her mother's arms.Xavier gently kissed her forehead. His heart ached for all she had endured.Upon reaching upstairs, Nadia caught sight of such a heartwarming scene and silently withdrew. Quinn's villa was newly renovated and boasted a lovely environment. As soon as she made up her mind to bring Lisa back to live with her, she put Edgar in charge of getting the place ready.After the meal was prepared, everyone gathered around the dining table. All the dishes prepared were Quinn's favorites, thanks to Xavier's thoughtful instructions to the chef."Xav, the Xandor Group has hired a bunch of online trolls to slander Quinny, and now she's being bashed by the internet users," Ian said indignantly. He even went as far as to register a new social media account to argue with them, but he couldn't get the upper hand—which left h
