"I think I did an excellent job as well," Quinn stated. She wasn't one to beat herself up with such trivial matters. These days, no matter what she did, her top priority was her own well-being."You're truly the best," Xavier said as he gently patted her head. His gentleness made it easy for Quinn to lose herself in it.He then said, "Alright then. Go run yourself a hot bath and remember to dry your hair afterward. If it seems like too much work, feel free to call me. I'm more than happy to help you with it.""You don't have to concern yourself with that. Go take a shower. I'll get you a bathrobe," Quinn said as she walked away to grab him a bathrobe.The guest room was fully equipped with all amenities, so Xavier could make himself at home.After her shower, Quinn didn't go to bed in her own room. Instead, she went to join Lisa on the bed.At that moment, Lisa was tossing and turning because of the storm. She was a bit frightened of it.Quinn wrapped her arms around Lisa's wais

Given how convoluted Dudore was, Lisa decided it would be best if she didn't follow along. She didn't want to hold Quinn back, after all. "Got it, Mom. I'll take good care of myself. You have to take good care of yourself too, okay?"Also, Luna recently took over Four Seasons Incorporated. She's still not familiar with many things, so if you have time, maybe you could give her some guidance."Luna had suddenly been handed such a huge responsibility, so she was naturally quite nervous about it."Alright, I'll stop by if I have the time," Lisa said. She still cared a lot about Four Seasons Incorporated and was eager to dive back into her career again. She wanted to revisit those plans she had to put on hold five years ago.And so, Lisa and Quinn stayed in bed, quietly talking to each other.It was only when Gwendolyn knocked on the door to call them down for breakfast that they finally got out of bed.Apparently, Xavier and Gwendolyn had prepared breakfast together.Gwendolyn ha

Quinn was definitely a real powerhouse. There was no doubt about it! "I'll be honest here. Maurice and Araminta absolutely brought this upon themselves. If it weren't for Quinn's capabilities, she would have surely met her end in the borderlands.""It's nothing short of a miracle that a teenage girl could overcome the challenges of living with a mentally ill mother in the borderlands."At that moment, Simon and Shelly arrived at the courthouse as well. However, since they couldn't drive in, they had to park the car outside and walk the rest of the way.Upon seeing them, the reporters immediately surrounded them."Are you aware of what happened five years ago, Mr. Xandor? Did you play any part in it? And what are your thoughts regarding your mother's conduct?""What are your thoughts on the potential outcome of today's trial, Mr. Xandor?"A barrage of questions was directed at Simon, but he remained silent.In the past, a mere look from him would have sufficed to discourage the

Shelly had always been very condescending and felt that she was better than everyone else."Given the Xandor family's current state, Shelly's arrogance is just baffling to me," Nadia said, baffled by how someone like Shelly couldn't learn from her mistakes."You should just ignore her. There's no point in letting her get to you.""Yeah, I know. She just really gets on my nerves."…It took Simon quite a while to shove his way through the reporters, but he eventually got Shelly in."Are you upset with me, Simon? What did I do to deserve that? It was clearly those reporters who were being rude to me earlier! You didn't even try to help me, and now you're blaming me for everything," Shelly whined."Our family is under a lot of scrutiny right now, Shelly. Please be mindful of your words and actions," Simon advised."What did I do, huh? Where did I go wrong? Is it my fault that our family is in this mess?"Simon felt a headache coming on and said, "It's pointless to discuss this no

Simon had managed to secure the best lawyer he could. Yet, it now appeared that they were bound to be utterly defeated."What's the deal between Quinn and Mr. Ziegler? What kind of relationship do they have? How does Quinn know so many influential people?"Harvey had quite the reputation in Jipsfort. Many had cried and begged him to assist with their lawsuits, but it was all in vain. Yet, Quinn was fortunate enough to have him take her case.Shelly couldn't help but feel frustrated about it.Simon was also baffled as to how Quinn knew Harvey. After all, Harvey was undoubtedly a significant figure in Jipsfort.When it was time for the court hearing, Maurice, Araminta, and Shania were escorted into the courtroom too.Upon seeing Quinn in the plaintiff's seat, Maurice became visibly agitated and shouted, "I'm your father, Quinny! How could you turn against me like this? I'm truly sorry for what I've done. Please let me go!"After escorting them to the defendant's seat, the court st

As soon as the judge passed the sentence, Quinn knew that everything had come to an end.She then looked over at Gwendolyn and Nadia seated among the spectators, her eyes brimming with tears. It was impossible for her not to feel something. After all, she had personally lived through those experiences. While others might be able to encapsulate them in a few sentences, for her, they had been an open wound for five long years.Upon seeing Quinn in such a state, Xavier yearned to embrace her tightly. She had gone through so much suffering and encountered endless dangers during the entire ordeal. It was the borderlands, after all—it was a place that spared no one!Maurice understood the inevitability of his situation and desperately called out to Quinn."Can I ask you for a favor, Quinny?" Maurice remained utterly shameless even now.Quinn stopped in her tracks, awaiting Maurice's request."Can you please look after my son? He's your brother, after all. You—"Quinn found the req

As hard as it was to accept, the truth was undeniable, and there was nothing anyone could do to change it. Shania finally nodded in agreement and said, "Please go tell your father that I'm willing to divorce him, Simon."As the mastermind, she had received a 15-year sentence. What would be left for her after those 15 years?"Are you really going to divorce him, Mom?" Simon asked. He felt that if she hadn't been so fixated on the marriage, things wouldn't have ended up like this."Yes, I'm really letting go of him now. He had never loved me anyway. Please promise me you'll all take care of each other. I won't be there to watch over you anymore."Simon nodded and said, "You can count on me, Mom! I'm going to work really hard to get into the research institute, and I'll take care of you when you get out. You can leave everything to me.""You should behave yourself and heed your brother's advice, Shelly. Our family isn't what it used to be. You'll have to stand on your own two feet

Nadia harbored deep resentment toward these reporters. After all, it was their reckless reporting that had ruined Lisa's reputation. It had gotten to the point where people would throw things at Lisa whenever she went outside."If you don't want to deal with the reporters, I can call for backup right now," Xavier suggested. Just a dozen bodyguards would do the trick.But Quinn replied, "It's alright. I'll go check it out myself." She didn't want to draw any attention to herself at this moment."Their questions are notoriously harsh, Quinny. You don't have to put up with them," Nadia said, clearly worried about Quinn's well-being. After all, those reporters loved nothing more than to stir up trouble.Despite all the wrongdoings that Maurice and the others had committed, these reporters would still take the moral high ground to condemn the victims. And even when those people didn't deserve forgiveness, they would still spout all sorts of nonsense."You don't have to worry about me

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
