Quinn remained still and allowed Xavier to hold her. His embrace was comforting. It often made her want to stay in that moment forever.After a brief embrace, Xavier kissed her forehead tenderly and said, "Good night, and sleep well, Quinny.""Good night."Xavier then walked her to the door. He would have liked to spend the night with her, but knowing Quinn's pride and that Gwendolyn and Lisa were still around, he decided against it.He was typically indifferent to others' opinions. Yet, when it came to Quinn, he was always mindful of her.Quinn slept soundly that night and woke up the next morning feeling refreshed and rejuvenated.As the family gathered around for breakfast, Gwendolyn felt a sense of warmth, and her eyes welled up with emotion."Your father would be overjoyed to see us gathered together for breakfast."As people aged, they often became particularly sentimental."I wonder how Gabriel's doing right now." As soon as she mentioned Gabriel, Gwendolyn felt a pang

"You don't have to try so hard to win my family over, Xavier," Quinn said solemnly.She really didn't want him getting too close to her family. Given that she had no intention of marrying him, she didn't want to get Lisa and Gwendolyn's hopes up."How can you say that I'm trying to win them over? I think I get along quite well with Mrs. Gatrell Senior." Quinn fell silent.Xavier then turned to her and said, "You really don't need to overthink this, Ms. Jowell. I know you don't want anything serious, and I'm not looking for anything long-term either. I'm perfectly fine with just living in the moment. I find it quite enjoyable."Xavier decided to change his game plan. Given Quinn's guarded nature, Xavier decided to take a step back. He thought that with time, she would lower her defenses and he could pursue a relationship with her."I'm glad you can see it that way," Quinn said. She genuinely felt that this manner of getting along was the best. They could both relax and enjoy life

"I've looked over these financial statements, but I'm not a finance expert, so I might be missing some things," Luna said. Although she really wanted to help out, her expertise was limited."Ms. Jowell, I…"Quinn got up and poured her a cup of warm water. She had recently developed a habit of drinking warm water for health reasons."Please calm down, Ms. Lewitt. There's a solution to every problem," Quinn stated. She had always been calm and collected, regardless of the situation.Upon seeing Quinn so composed, Luna felt herself calming down. She couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. She was older than Quinn, yet she wasn't even a fraction as composed as Quinn in dealing with difficult situations.With that thought in mind, Luna took a sip of water.Quinn sat down and skimmed through some documents. Given that she had failed to acquire Four Seasons Incorporated, Araminta sought to destroy it.After a few glances, she effortlessly identified the problem. "You don't have to wor

Shania couldn't help but wonder why Baxter couldn't even show her an ounce of compassion."Please help me, Baxter. I can't bear to lose everything I've painstakingly built."After listening to her rambling, Baxter was at a loss for words. "You should just let it go, Shania! It doesn't really matter if Xandor Group goes bankrupt. You've been too fixated for too long!"After saying that, Baxter immediately hung up the phone.At that moment, the news on the TV was full of negative reports about Xandor Group.Upon seeing that, Baxter lit a cigarette.It was his fault for hurting Lisa. He had been so determined to be with her, but ultimately, he couldn't go against his parents' wishes and married Shania instead.Despite everything, Baxter still went to see Quinn. After all, Shania was still the mother of his children. He couldn't possibly ignore her plight.As she gazed at the almost 50-year-old refined man standing before her, Quinn couldn't help but scoff and ask, "Do you really t

Quinn stopped in her tracks. What did Baxter know about the finances of Four Seasons Incorporated?Thinking of Shania's humble demeanor, Baxter hesitated for a moment and ultimately said nothing. He felt guilty toward Shania and couldn't bear to watch her suffer.Quinn smirked.They were family, after all. How could he possibly alert her to financial issues at Four Seasons Incorporated?Quinn turned and walked away.Simon frowned. "Dad, is there a problem with Four Seasons' finances?" Quinn was in charge now. If there was an issue, it would be her responsibility to handle it.Baxter shook his head. "Just drop it. It's none of your business anyway."He was unwilling to elaborate further, but Simon wasn't convinced."Dad, we owe it to Quinn. If you know something, you should tell her. Otherwise, our family might face irreparable damage. But you've never cared about the Xandor family's fate, have you?"Baxter had never truly cared.After Simon's outburst, he turned and chased af

"Simon, my affairs are none of your concern. You and your family should stay out of my life. Just enjoy the consequences of what you sowed five years ago." Quinn said coldly.It was impossible for her to forgive them.A simple apology couldn't undo the wrongs done. The cost of mistakes was too low if it could be resolved with just an apology, especially considering what had happened to Lisa.Xavier opened the car door for Quinn and let her in. After a brief glance at Simon, he drove away.The two of them went to a well-known boba tea house in Jipsfort and bought dozens of cups of various types of boba tea.Nadia had been working hard recently, and Quinn hadn't had a chance to visit her. She planned to check in on her today.After buying boba tea and desserts, Quinn and Xavier headed straight to the design school.When they arrived at the hall where Nadia's rehearsal was held, they saw Ian there. Ian had been coming to help out whenever he had the time.Seeing Xavier and Quinn,

Quinn was watching Nadia and Ian interact when Xavier suddenly fed her a piece of cake."Open your mouth." Since she was engrossed in the scene before her, he didn't mind feeding her.Ian watched, stunned.Was Xavier usually so bold? He was feeding Quinn in front of so many people. Besides, she didn't even seem to have accepted him yet.Xavier looked at Quinn with a pleading expression as if saying, "See, everyone is watching us. If you don't eat it, I'll be completely embarrassed."Meanwhile, Nadia was eating cake while enjoying the drama.The interaction between Quinn and Xavier was so captivating that she felt like she wanted to throw a pillow in excitement if one were nearby.The next moment, Quinn opened her mouth.She looked exquisite today, with her lip gloss making her already alluring lips even more enticing.Now, she was opening her mouth for him. Xavier found himself irresistibly drawn to her.He gently fed her the cake.Quinn's way of eating the cake was incredib

Ian wondered if Nadia's feelings for Logan were the reason she couldn't accept him—a younger man.The thought that she didn't like him upset him deeply. His moist eyes looked so vulnerable they almost invited teasing.Seeing Ian like that made Nadia feel even more embarrassed. What was she thinking? Ian was only 19!She let go of Quinn and shot her a warning glance. The look said that if Quinn said anything inappropriate, their friendship would be at risk.Quinn understood the message but only responded with a teasing comment, "Man up."Nadia chose to ignore it. She just didn't want things to become awkward between her and Ian.Besides, she was sure that Ian saw her only as a sister figure.For some reason, the atmosphere became a bit awkward.Ian looked visibly upset.Quinn nudged Nadia. "He's upset. Go comfort him."Just then, Ian went off to the other side alone while looking genuinely upset. "Don't joke about that, Quinn. You know I can't play with his feelings," Nadia

Whoever said women lack desire was wrong. Sometimes, a woman's longing could catch the man off guard.Faced with Quinn's boldness, Xavier found it impossible to resist. His desire for her was burning within him.Since being with her, he'd wanted her constantly, and tonight was no exception.Quinn tilted her head, and Xavier landed a peck on her neck, one of her most alluring features.His kiss felt like a gentle spring breeze as he began softly at her lips.That light touch flipped a switch within her. It sent electric tingles racing through her body. It was as if he wielded some mysterious power. As he glided his lips down her neck, each caress sent shivers coursing through her, making her tremble involuntarily.With each kiss moving lower, her heartbeat quickened. She felt as though she were immersed in a sweet dream, and his kisses were the leading melody of this ethereal experience.From her lips to her neck and then to her chest, each kiss ignited a flame deep within her. She cou

"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
