"You little rascal! You haven't visited me in a long time. Have you forgotten about me?" Nancy was in the middle of reading a medical book when Xavier and Quinn showed up.She placed the book on the table when she saw the visitors. She glanced at the young lady standing next to Xavier. "And this is…"This was the first time she had heard of Xavier with a woman. Whoever Quinn was, she had to be special to Xavier for him to bring her to this villa."Madam Quigley, she's my crush. I would like you to perform a checkup on her because she's been having stomach issues." Xavier was honest. He couldn't introduce Quinn as his girlfriend because she hadn't agreed to it.Smiling, Nancy encouraged him, "Oh, it's rare to see you have a crush. All the best."Then, she invited them to take a seat. Xavier introduced her to Quinn. "Quinn, this is Nancy Quigley."Quinn looked less defensive in Nancy's amicable presence. "Hi, Madam Quigley. I'm Quinn Jowell.""Give me your arm. I'll give you a che

It was impossible for a man who didn't believe in love to fall for her. That was what Quinn thought.Frowning, Xavier stated, "Quinn, all I want is to make sure you recover from your stomach issues. Everything else can be discussed later."Xavier owned a private jet and could freely apply for flight permission. He led her into the jet and offered, "Just let me know if you need to travel anywhere. I'll get someone to fly you around, or I could even pilot the jet myself."He could fly the jet as he had a pilot's license. However, he didn't pilot the jet that day because he wished to sit with her."Hi, Mr. Patterson!" The air stewardess, Lauren Holmes, beamed brightly at him.He gave Lauren a quick nod before entering the jet with Quinn. Lauren looked obviously disappointed, as she was interested in Xavier. She had been offered better career opportunities after she had graduated from college, but she had given them up to be an air stewardess on Xavier's private jet.The private je

Xavier probably added some hot water to the freshly squeezed juice because it was warm to the touch.Lauren hurried away when she saw him returning to the seat. She tried to conceal her feelings for him for fear she might lose her job. If that happened, she would lose the chance to steal a look at him from afar.Xavier handed Quinn the glass of fruit juice. She was surprised to learn the juice was warm after she took a sip.Xavier didn't have to be so thoughtful.He retorted, "Did you just say I'm heartless? What makes you say so?" Why did she accuse him of being heartless after he meticulously cared for her?Quinn took another sip of juice. Since he wanted to win her heart, she declared, "I'm heartless, too." He broke out laughing. It was true that he wanted to win her over.…After a two-hour flight, the plane finally touched down at Jipsfort at 1:00 pm. Quinn felt hungry after alighting because she hadn't eaten anything on the plane.She'd have stomachache if she didn't ta

Xavier treated Quinn like a parent viewed their child. She was fully grown up, but he still worried about her."It's fine." Quinn dismissed his offer as it was unnecessary. She had made her return after she had decided that she was capable enough. She wanted to use her strength instead of relying on others' help.After dropping off Quinn at Four Seasons Incorporated, Xavier headed to the Waterfront Villa. Soon, Ian got back to the villa. He had shopped for the stuff that Xavier had requested."Xav, are you feeling unwell? Shall I call the doctor?" Ian was puzzled because Xavier wanted a pot to prepare the medicine."I'm feeling fine.""Why did you ask me to get this stuff? And what's going on with the herbs on the table?"Ian knew Xavier well; the latter never took herbal medicine because it smelled rather foul."I'm preparing the herbal medicine for Quinn. She has some stomach issues. I took her for a consultation with Madam Quigley during our stay at Dudore.""You could have

Luna was surprised to receive a call from Araminta. She had never expected Araminta to reach out to her at such a time.Regardless, she couldn't decline to meet with Araminta, who was one of the company's leaders.…Luna stared silently at Araminta, who was seated across from her in a cafe in Four Seasons Incorporated's lobby. She wondered about the motive behind Araminta's request to meet.Araminta ordered two cups of coffee. Then, she began, "Ms. Lewitt, it must have been hard to reach where you are after losing your parents at a young age. "I'm going to be honest with you since we're here. Leave the project team, and I'll agree to any of your wishes."Araminta could not allow Quinn's project to be a success. She wouldn't hand over Four Seasons Incorporated to someone else after years of working so hard for the company.Luna's fists tightened on her knees. She stared at Araminta, acutely aware that this woman had driven Lisa to insanity."Yes, it wasn't easy. Thank you for y

"It's fine. Just order whatever you want if you can finish it. You don't have to worry about me paying for the dinner," Quinn piped up.Ryan ordered two dishes before handing the menu to others. Luna agreed, "Let's order two dishes each."Soon, all the team members put in their orders. It was their first time dining at such a high-end restaurant, and they all ordered their favorite foods.Finally, the menu was back in Quinn's hands. She added two specialties to the order. The young team members got along well with the easygoing Quinn in no time. It was an enjoyable dinner.Ryan, who'd had too much to drink, grabbed Quinn by her sleeve. "Ms. Jowell, there's nothing to worry about! I will give my best shot. It's not easy to come across a job I truly like!"He was a capable hire, but many companies had rejected his application because he had graduated from a less prestigious college.After receiving many rejections and coming so close to giving up, he hadn't been able to believe h

Quinn frowned. She hated being forced to do anything, which was exactly what Xavier did. Glaring at him, she said with aversion, "Xavier, I told you I'm not drinking it."She regretted following him to the villa."Quinn, look at my hand." He showed her the burns on his bony hand.What was that? "And do I have anything to do with this?" She was surprised to see the burns on his hand."Of course it has everything to do with you! Quinn Jowell, your mom is still in the borderlands! She only has you, and she needs your care. What will she do if something happens to you?" Xavier used Lisa as an excuse to force Quinn into taking the medicine, knowing that she cared for her mom the most."Xavier, you crossed a line there." She rose from the couch but adamantly refused to take the medicine."I can't believe that you're scared of taking herbal medicine.""Don't pull that on me. It won't work."Since she refused to take the medicine, he lifted the bowl and took a mouthful of it. Then, h

Quinn furrowed her brow, wondering what Xavier was doing. Did he perhaps feel sorry for her?She really didn't need him to feel sorry for her, though.She simply couldn't pull away from him because he was holding her by the waist.Xavier was undeniably charismatic. No woman who fell under his spell could emerge unscathed. He was currently sitting on the couch, his face nestled against her sensitive stomach. At that moment, a palpable tension hung in the air between them, the kind that spoke of unspoken desires between a man and a woman.Quinn had never truly understood love. She also didn't believe that pure love existed in this world.According to her, everything was merely primal urges, and it was simply a matter of controlling them."You're probably just looking to have sex with me, right? You don't need to put on the lovey-dovey act." After all, a man of his caliber shouldn't have to lower himself like this.Upon seeing her in such a state, Xavier felt a pang of sorrow, wi

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
