Luna was deeply grateful to Lisa. The latter was truly a wonderful person and didn't deserve such a fate.Luna, who was always polite, left shortly after dinner, after staying a little while.Nadia didn't come for dinner today. With her showcase approaching, she had been extremely busy.Only Quinn and Lisa were left in the villa.Lisa seemed to be feeling better. She was now watching TV in the living room, something she hadn't cared for before.She used to think there were so many important things in life that she didn't have time to waste on television.Yet, this time around, she found watching TV to be quite a pleasant distraction."Mom, I'm planning to hand over Four Seasons Incorporated to Luna. What do you think of her?" Quinn asked.After all, Four Seasons Incorporated was Lisa's hard work, so Quinn wanted to discuss it with her.Lisa thought for a moment before nodding."I think it's a good idea. Luna is a very capable woman. I'd feel reassured with her managing the co
Quinn had a passion for car modifications, but the Dazzle was the most impressive she had ever seen. It was perfect for high-speed racing. It could provide the extreme thrill she craved.Seeing the glint in her eyes, Xavier knew she was thrilled. "Why don't you take it for a spin?"He had arranged for the Dazzle to be shipped from Dudore a while ago but hadn't given it to her until now, as he needed to modify it to suit her preferences.The Dazzle was his prized possession. Although he hadn't raced in years, he had kept it in pristine condition.Xavier tossed her the car keys, and Quinn caught them with a steady hand.She opened the car door and slid into the driver's seat. She was clearly impressed. The Dazzle was everything she had hoped for. It lived up to its top-tier reputation.Xavier took the passenger seat.Once he was settled, Quinn revved up the engine and took the Dazzle out on the road.The car roared down the highway, which attracted countless onlookers. Some even
"This is my first gift to you. Do you like it?" Xavier asked. He genuinely hoped Quinn would be pleased."You didn't have to give me something so extravagant, Xavier." The Dazzle was priceless. It was beyond what money could buy.He must be the Race King. The Dazzle was clearly his most treasured possession."The Dazzle has been kept away for a long time. You're the right person for it, so I'm giving it to you," Xavier said."Thank you." Quinn really liked it.She stepped out of the car and stood beside it. Xavier had meticulously modified the car to perfectly match her driving style. He had clearly put a lot of thought into it."Can you stay tonight?" Xavier asked. With Edgar around, Lisa would be fine. He wanted it to be just the two of them tonight.Quinn hesitated. Did he give her a gift just to sleep with her?Without waiting for her answer, Xavier picked her up. He had wanted to do this earlier in the day on Maidenhair Avenue.He carried her into the bathroom. Tonight, h
In the end, Quinn didn't even have the strength to walk. It was Xavier who had carried her back to bed.When he woke up, she was already gone. He couldn't help but frown. He didn't like waking up to an empty bed.Nevertheless, he sat up.Yesterday had been so wild that he didn't even know when Quinn had woken up. He tried calling her, but there was no answer.Xavier's irritation grew.She had slept with him and then disappeared. How rude could that be? Sometimes he wondered if she was just playing with him.At that moment, Quinn had already returned to Windhaven Villa. No matter what, she was determined to come back and have breakfast with Lisa.Nadia, who had come home late the previous night, had just woken up. She pulled Quinn aside when she saw her. "Did you go to Xavier's last night?""Yeah," Quinn admitted."Must have been quite intense. You look a bit out of it. Didn't you say Xavier wasn't up to much before?"Quinn was rendered speechless.When did she ever say that?
"Alright." Ian nodded.He was struggling with his own feelings. He liked Nadia, but she only saw him as a brother figure. How was he supposed to change that?…The ambiance at Xandor Group's morning meeting was tense. The shareholders were deeply dissatisfied with Shania's stubbornness.If it weren't for her, Xandor Group wouldn't end up in this mess."Mrs. Xandor, it's clear that acquiring Four Seasons shares was a mistake. If this continues, Xandor Group won't be able to sustain itself.""That's right! We should sell the Four Seasons shares. Otherwise, our funds will never stabilize.""Four Seasons Incorporated isn't an easy target for a takeover. Ms. Jowell is a highly capable individual. We should avoid antagonizing her.""Can't you just manage your own company? Why must we always go up against them?"Shania was increasingly distressed by their comments."Have you all said enough? I'm the president of Xandor Group. Give me one more day, and I'll sort out the funds.""Mrs
"Thank you," Lisa said.After wandering around the mall, Lisa took Quinn to an antique store.Lisa's father, Leroy Gatrell, had always been fond of antiques. With the Gatrell family's recent decline, he had sold off many of his antiques.Lisa wanted to find a special antique for him.As soon as they entered the store, the owner greeted them warmly. "Welcome, ma'am. Although this place is small, everything we sell is genuine.""Don't worry about us. We'll look around and ask if we need anything," Lisa said.She was Leroy's most cherished daughter. In her youth, she followed him closely and saw many types of antiques, so she became quite an expert.After a thorough look, Lisa chose an emerald signet ring. The ring was in good condition and had decent purity."How much is this?" Lisa hadn't visited an antique store in a while, so she was unsure of the current market prices."You have a keen eye, ma'am. This emerald signet ring dates back to the early Middle Ages and was once worn
"What did you say?" Shelly couldn't believe her ears. This card was Darius' supplementary card. How could it possibly be out of funds?"I said your card has insufficient funds. Do you have another one?"The antique store owner was visibly frustrated. After all the commotion, it turned out she was just another broke customer.Shelly's face turned crimson with embarrassment. How could this happen in front of Quinn and Lisa?Just then, Kimberly came to look for Shelly.Seeing Kimberly, Shelly quickly pulled her aside. "Kimberly, there's something wrong with my card. I really want that emerald signet ring. Could you lend me some money?"When Shelly was in need, her tone became exceptionally nice."How much do you need?"Kimberly had some money but was reluctant to lend it to Shelly. After all, Shelly had never paid her back in the past."800 thousand dollars."Kimberly was stunned. "Maybe you should forget it, Shelly. I don't have that much money on my card."800 thousand dollar
The emerald signet ring had originally cost the antique shop owner only 100 thousand dollars. He never imagined he'd sell it for such an exorbitant price today."You're really generous, Ms. Xandor. If you ever need anything else, come back and check out our store," the owner said."I don't want this anymore. I want to return it," Shelly said. She regretted her impulsive purchase."Are you playing games with me, Ms. Xandor? Sorry, but our store has a strict no-return policy." The owner's attitude became firm."What do you mean no returns? You better give me my money back, or I'll report you!" Shelly threatened."Go ahead and report me. We're closing for the day, so please leave." The owner wasted no time in kicking both Shelly and Kimberly out.There was no way he’d refund that money now. If she couldn't afford it, she shouldn't have bought it in the first place.Shelly's face darkened further after being thrown out.Just then, Quinn and Lisa walked out of another antique store
