"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
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.
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
"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
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.
Somewhere in a dark alley in the borderlands of Mostovia, a loud voice rang out. "Grab her! Don't let her get away!"Even though it was in the middle of the night, the streets were still brightly illuminated. A dozen people in black were chasing after a slender young woman, Quinn Jowell."Damn it. These people are asking for it." Seeing that the men were hot on her tail, Quinn stopped abruptly and grabbed a long metal pole that was about three feet long. "Give us that thing!"In just the blink of an eye, the dozen men in black surrounded Quinn and trapped her. Their faces were twisted into ugly scowls as they came closer to her."You want it? Come and get it, then!" Quinn shouted.She had a dark hoodie covering her face, so none of the men could see her expression. However, her voice sent a shiver down their spines.Blood was still flowing out of her arm where she had taken a bullet earlier. She had to end this. Fast.One of the men with a long scar on his face turned to a blo
Just a while ago, Xavier had ordered Lee to throw out a woman who had dared to drug him. He had been merciless when he had given out that order. However, he didn't feel like suppressing his desires anymore. Moreover, Quinn was exactly his type. Just putting his arm around her waist made him want to give in to the lust raging through his body."I don't care who you are. You're mine."Quinn couldn't help rolling her eyes in the dark when she heard that. "Let's see how you try to make me yours."Even if she was tired, she wasn't one to give up without a fight.However, a second later, Xavier pressed on her wound harshly."Ouch!" Quinn cried out in pain. This man was a cruel and merciless one! How could he attack her weakest point like that?Xavier then pressed his burning body against hers. "I gave you a chance to run away just now, but you didn't. Now, you can't blame it on me anymore.""Do you have a death wish?" Quinn was dying to rip Xavier away from her body, but he didn't g
There was an ugly look on Shelly's face. She had never thought that Quinn, who used to let everyone walk all over her, would turn out to be such a dangerous character."I'm sorry."Shelly had to uphold the Pattersons' reputation. So, she could only apologize like she had been told to, albeit begrudgingly. "I can't hear you.""You—"No one in Jipsfort had ever dared to treat Shelly like this. Her eyes turned red with anger. There were plenty of people watching from the sidelines, yet no one stepped out to defend her."I'm sorry. I was wrong.""Ms. Xandor, remember to treat me with respect the next time you see me. Otherwise, you'll only have yourself to blame when you face the consequences."Shelly was seething. How dared this lowly bitch threaten her like this?Still, she knew that Quinn wasn't going to be able to stay haughty for long. She was going to learn what it meant to offend the daughter of the Xandor family!Quinn took her suitcase and went to the T2 exit. A while l
