"What else have you people done to Ms. Gatrell? She has always been a source of pride for Jipsfort. If you hadn't schemed against her five years ago, Four Seasons Incorporated would have undoubtedly achieved greater heights."In the past, the rise of Four Seasons Incorporated had solved the employment issues of many individuals in Jipsfort.At that very moment, a car suddenly pulled up at the roadside—Baxter had brought Shania along to the scene. Although she was reluctant to step out of the car, Baxter forcefully dragged her out."How can you be so selfish, Shania? Don't you care about Simon and Shelly's well-being?" Baxter demanded. He thought she could be indifferent to everything except their children.All the reporters on the scene were caught off guard by Shania's sudden appearance. A throng of them armed with cameras swarmed toward her and asked, "Are you aware of what Maurice and Araminta did five years ago, Mrs. Xandor? What role did you play in these events five years ago

Baxter and Shania were brought to their knees. Their former haughtiness was completely extinguished.Araminta looked on, and her face was burning with shame. She had once kneeled before her too, but Quinn was unforgiving, and no amount of pleading would change her heart."It was Mrs. Xandor who made me do it. I was just misled by her like everyone else."Araminta still wouldn't admit that it was her fault, even at that moment. There was no way she could! If she did, her life would be ruined!A chorus of jeers swept through the scene."How could you be so cruel to another woman, Araminta? Aren't women supposed to support each other, not tear each other down? What you've done is utterly disgraceful.""Given Ms. Gatrell's character, if Maurice had just been honest and said he didn't love her anymore, she would have definitely divorced him. Yet, instead of doing that, he took this cowardly approach to force her hand. He's the worst of them all!""They're both terrible people. Their

"I…" Maurice trailed off. He still wanted to defend himself. Yet, in the face of such overwhelming evidence, there was little he could say in his defense."I simply made a mistake that any man might make. It was Araminta who led me astray."Maurice blamed Araminta for everything and then revealed all the terrible things she had done to Quinn and Lisa.Araminta stared at him in disbelief. How could he do this to her? They were still husband and wife, after all. And yet, he was blaming her for everything."What do you mean by that, Maurice? How dare you shift all the blame onto me? Have you no shame?""Aren't you the one who seduced me? You're just jealous of Lisa for her looks and her business acumen. I was only planning to divorce her, but you were the one who wanted to drive her crazy. Didn't you even hire someone to kill Quinn?"They were supposed to share an unbreakable bond as a married couple, yet when disaster struck, their vows were forgotten. Maurice and Araminta were qui

"That pair of adulterers deserve no mercy! They are rotten to the core.""If it weren't for these adulterers, I believe Four Seasons Incorporated could have achieved even greater heights by now. I'm truly sorry, Ms. Gatrell!"At that moment, a sea of apologies filled the livestream comment section.Lorraine had been intently watching the live stream. At first, she didn't dare to let Lisa know about the livestream. Yet, after witnessing the flood of apologies, she eventually called Lisa over with tears in her eyes.Upon seeing the countless apologies in the comment section, Lisa couldn't help but smile."Quinny is truly incredible, Lisa! You won't have to worry about people talking behind your back anymore," Lorraine exclaimed.At this point, apologies meant nothing in this situation. Nevertheless, at least those people were aware of how wonderful Lisa truly was. Although she had a smile on her face, Lisa's teary eyes betrayed her emotions. Quinn had truly gone above and beyond

Upon hearing that, Araminta went ballistic.She had slipped a fruit knife in her bag earlier. At that moment, she suddenly lunged at Quinn with the knife.All the onlookers were stunned. It seemed like she had completely gone mad. She dared to attack someone in broad daylight!Xavier immediately pulled Quinn into his arms and wanted to kick Araminta away.Yet, before Xavier could do that, Maurice blocked Araminta's attack. As a result, the fruit knife embedded itself in his chest. His shirt was soaked in blood.Araminta was dumbfounded. She did not understand why Maurice would suddenly take the blow for Quinn. "You…"Quinn, on the other hand, couldn't help but furrow her brow and wonder what Maurice was playing at. He actually dared to pull such a stunt while she was condemning him."We were the ones at fault five years ago, Araminta. I realized now that I shouldn't have been swayed by you. Please don't hurt Quinny—she's still so young," Maurice said, then collapsed to the groun

Xandor Group was on the verge of bankruptcy, and its employees were left in a state of panic. They had a great job at a great company. Yet, due to Shania's foolish decision to go head-to-head with Quinn, they were about to lose their livelihood. They found it hard to come to terms with the outcome.As a result, a crowd of anxious employees gathered outside the Four Seasons Incorporated building. They couldn't afford to lose their jobs. They still had mortgages and car payments to make, parents to take care of, and kids to put through school. They needed those jobs.They had gathered outside Four Seasons Incorporated with banners. They were demanding answers from Quinn. Their cars had completely blocked the company’s entrance. This was causing utter chaos at the scene.It didn't matter who it was, but they had made it clear that an explanation had to be given today—otherwise, they wouldn't back down.On that day, Quinn happened to be at Four Seasons Incorporated. Upon seeing the com

"Are you looking to resolve this issue or simply here to cause a scene? If you want to resolve it, then be quiet," Quinn said.She didn't owe them anything. It was Shania who caused all these troubles, after all. She had only agreed to help out of the kindness of her heart. If she had refused, there was nothing they could have done about it either.As soon as Quinn spoke up, everyone in the crowd fell silent and then turned to her."We're at our wit's end, Ms. Jowell! We can't afford to lose our jobs. We're just ordinary people trying to make ends meet. Please help us out.""Exactly, Ms. Jowell! If Xandor Group actually goes under, what are we supposed to do? Where else would we seek employment?"It wasn't just one or two people who were affected by Xandor Group. There were thousands of employees!"Please help us, Ms. Jowell. We're really desperate here. We really can't afford to lose our livelihoods.""I get that you're in a tight spot, but gathering here won't resolve anything

As soon as they arrived at the restaurant, Quinn received a call from Simon.Upon seeing that it was Simon calling, Quinn chose to ignore it. Yet, he kept calling, so she had no choice but to answer it.As soon as Quinn answered the phone, Xavier's expression turned grim. He wished Simon would just disappear at that moment. It was so annoying how he always interrupted their time together."Can we meet up, Quinny? I've got something to discuss with you regarding Xandor Group."He knew full well she didn't want to see him, but he went ahead and asked anyway because he wanted to discuss the escalating Xandor Group situation."I only have one thing to say about Xandor Group, Simon. It'll be acquired within three days," Quinn stated bluntly. Upon hearing that, Xavier couldn't help but laugh. He was suddenly thankful that he was on her side and not against her. Quinn was always direct and ruthless, no matter who she was dealing with.As soon as she noticed him laughing, Quinn rolled

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
