Nonetheless, the bodyguards refused to let Gerald in. Unwilling to give up, he tried to force his way in but failed.The bodyguards had disliked him long ago. When Gerald had worked as butler for the Jowells, he had always flaunted his power and bullied others. Now, they wouldn't let him off easily. Meanwhile, Quinn saw Xavier waiting outside for her when she left the villa. She was at a loss for words. Had Xavier gotten up so early in the morning just to wait for her? Xavier personally opened the car door for her. "Are you going to Four Seasons Incorporated? I'll take you there." "Xavier, you really don't have to do this. I don't need it," Quinn said.She had indeed felt aroused by him last night, or perhaps it was the atmosphere that had made her simply lose control of herself. However, it was just a fleeting lapse of judgment. Xavier said, "You haven't bought a car yet, right? The company is on my way, so don't overthink it." Quinn planned to go to Dudore after finishing
At that moment, Xavier's eyes darkened with desire. Was Quinn doing it on purpose? "Don't you have a meeting you need to attend soon? Don't seduce me; otherwise, I might even consider doing it in the car." After all, he had no limits.Quinn shot him a sidelong glance. Could he not overthink things? She continued chewing the donut balls and ignored him completely. She didn't want any more after eating five donut balls. She didn't have much of an appetite in the morning."Are you not going to eat anymore?" Xavier frowned. How could her stomach get better if she ate so little? "That's enough." Quinn wasn't used to eating a heavy breakfast in the morning. Xavier took out a packet of milk, inserted a straw, and handed it to her. "Drink some." His voice was very gentle, as though he were coaxing a disobedient child. The sight of Quinn's red lips sucking on the straw had a strong impact on Xavier. His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily as he swallowed. In his mind, she wasn't bitin
Gary said in a mocking tone, "Ms. Lewitt, your project is impossible to complete. Meanwhile, the project I'm in charge of is a major one for the company, and my team has over 20 people. "You should find another meeting room. Oh, all the other project teams are having meetings today, so it seems like no other rooms are available. How about you guys have your meeting at the employee cafeteria?""You…" Luna was furious. "What about me? My project team generates billions in revenue for the company." Gary believed that Maurice would side with him even if he showed up. He continued, "That's enough. You should go to the cafeteria quickly. We need to start our meeting soon. Don't waste our time any longer." Ryan stepped up to defend Luna when he saw her getting bullied. "Don't go too far. The project we're working on is also an important project." "That's right. Don't try to intimidate us. We're also employees of Four Seasons Incorporated. Why can't we use this meeting room?" someo
At that moment, Luna and the other team members felt like they had chosen the right person to follow. Regardless of Quinn's abilities, she was willing to back them up and protect them fiercely. "Alright, let's start the meeting." Quinn didn't waste much time and started the meeting. The members of the project team began presenting their plans and discussing their feasibility. The five new members were fresh out of university. They were indeed talented, but they still lacked experience. They grew nervous at the sight of Quinn's expressionless face as they reported their findings. Luna also noticed the issues in their presentation. Although she had only just graduated, she had participated in many projects during her university years. She said, "Ms. Jowell, they've just graduated from university. It's normal for them to have some weaknesses." Young people needed to be given an opportunity to grow. No one was born knowing everything. However, they had to secure this project imme
"Eat up! Have some more." Xavier's heart ached at the thought of how Quinn never ate much whenever they had their meals together. He took out some cutlery and handed it to her.Quinn's heart fluttered for a moment when she saw the wounds on his hand. Instead of taking the cutlery, she gently blew on his hand.Xaiver's fingers curled as his heart clenched. "Are you feeling sorry for me?"Quinn actually had a soft heart. "No." She took the cutleryfrom him and started digging in.The meal was nutritious, but she didn't have much of an appetite. Xavier served her a bowl of nourishing soup. She only had a few sips and didn't eat much of the food."Don't like the food? I'll switch to a different nutritionist." It could only mean the nutritionist wasn't good enough if Quinn ate so little.Seeing Quinn stop eating, Xavier took the cutlery and lunchbox from her to finish the remaining food.He then cleaned it up.When he saw that she was sleepy, he adjusted her seat."Go ahead and t
The kiss lasted for a long time. Xavier let Quinn go only when he had kissed her enough."That's how you kiss. Understood?" His voice was hoarse, and he looked at her as if he wanted to devour her whole.Quinn couldn't deny that she had all but melted when Xavier had kissed her. He truly was skilled.He insisted on making what was supposed to be just a one-night stand so complicated. While she refused, she had to admit that her body reacted to him.The temperature in the car soared. The air was filled with sparks of passion.Quinn was never one to be at a disadvantage when it came to flirting. Xavier might think that she was cowering away if she didn't retaliate.So, she wrapped her arms around his neck and blew gently into his sensitive ear.Sure enough, his ear was his most sensitive spot. Her breath made all his muscles tense. "Don't you want to go to work?""Of course I do! How could I not? I'm leaving." Quinn calmly got off him after making him aroused."What a maneater.
But Quinn's number was encrypted, making it impossible to trace its location.Ian frowned as he wondered what was going on. Who exactly was Quinn? There was rarely a number he couldn't trace.Since he couldn't trace the number, Ian decided to start with the surveillance footage around Four Seasons Incorporated.He hacked into several surveillance cameras and found Quinn's whereabouts. When he noticed her being picked up by a handsome man, he couldn't muster the courage to send the footage to Xavier. While he was hesitating, he received another call from Xavier."Ian, what's going on? You haven't found anything? It's been so long.""Xav, Quinn left with a good-looking man." Ian's voice grew softer.From Xavier's behavior these past few days, Ian could tell that he really cared about Quinn. Even though he had been by Xavier's side for so long, he had never seen the latter so concerned about a woman before.Since Xavier's return in the morning, he had been experimenting with cook
"But…" The others were uneasy, but with Noah there, they figured they wouldn't be held accountable if anything were to go wrong.Quinn's fingers danced across the keyboard, typing strings of code. Her face was devoid of emotions."The self-destruct system has stopped.""That's incredible!"Quinn looked just like an 18 or 19-year-old. How could she be so amazing?Those who weren't in the industry wouldn't be able to tell, but as IT experts, they understood how awesome Quinn was."Boss, who's she? Where did you find her? How is she so skilled?"People in tech were usually arrogant. They wouldn't show admiration for anyone as easily. But today, they couldn't help admiring Quinn."Stop talking nonsense. Just learn."Quinn repaired the system soon, leaving the IT experts stunned with their mouths agape. She even added two more layers of firewall to the system. "Don't worry, the first firewall is enough." She had just added two layers as a precaution."Is that true? Queen, can I
