Chapter 85

Author: Miss Jean-Jean
Moreover, being in the hospital was quite inconvenient. "I don't want to be admitted. I'd rather be home than in the hospital—I hate it here."

Xavier detested hospitals more than anything. He felt completely restricted.

Quinn rolled her eyes at him and said, "Did you perhaps hit your head in the car accident? Do you really think you have any say in this? You better stay for a couple of days; otherwise, if anything happens to you, you'll have no one but yourself to blame."

Ian couldn't help but laugh when he saw Xavier being told off by Quinn.

"What's so funny?" Quinn snapped, irritated by Ian's laughter.

"I'm sorry, Quinn. I didn't mean to upset you. I'll go handle the admission details." Ian couldn't hold in his laughter any longer, so he quickly left the ward.

Xavier probably got himself hit on purpose! Ian couldn't believe he actually went through such lengths to woo Quinn. It seemed that love could truly make one do crazy things.

With Daniel's departure, Xavier and Quinn wer

    "You want to take a shower?" Quinn asked. Should he even be showering in his current state?Xavier hummed in response and said, "Yeah, I feel uncomfortable."Upon seeing his filthy state, Quinn agreed, saying, "Go ahead and shower then. If you feel any discomfort, call me. I'll be right outside."Given that he was a man, it was inappropriate for her to assist him in showering.Xavier grunted in response and went into the bathroom.Quinn sat on the couch, feeling restless as the sound of running water echoed from the bathroom.After a while, she suddenly realized that he probably needed a pair of fresh underwear after showering. Hence, she got up and went to the convenience store downstairs to buy some for him.When she returned and noticed that he was still in the bathroom, she gently knocked on the door and asked, "Xavier? Are you not done yet?"Didn't men usually take quick showers? It had been 20 minutes since he had gone in. Why was he taking so long? Could he have fainted

    Quinn hated hospitals. They always reminded her of painful experiences."You take the bed; I'll be fine on the couch," Xavier said as he settled into the couch. As a gentleman, he felt it was only right to offer Quinn the bed."You should sleep in the bed. You're the patient here," Quinn insisted. One was sitting on the couch, while the other stood before it."You should get some rest now. You've had a long day."After flying back from Dudore and working half a day, an unexpected incident had actually happened in the evening. "You take the bed, Xavier," Quinn insisted again."Alright then."Given her stubbornness, Xavier had no choice but to sleep on the bed. Upon seeing Xavier obediently lying down on the bed, Quinn finally settled on the couch."If you feel any discomfort, be sure to call me. I'm going to sleep now."With that, Quinn closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep, her tiredness finally overcoming her.Even in her dream, she was in the hospital. She relived the nig

    "Good morning." Quinn's cheeks flushed with embarrassment. After all, Xavier's morning wood was quite intense.She wanted to distance herself a bit, not wanting to stay so close to him. However, as she tried to pull away, she nearly fell off the bed. Thankfully, Xavier caught her."Where do you think you're going? It's a normal reaction for men. Take it easy. I'm not going to do anything to you."With him pressing against her, it was impossible for Quinn to remain focused. "Let go of me, Xavier."Xavier immediately released her.Upon seeing her rosy complexion, his mood improved considerably. He couldn't bear to see her looking so weak.Quinn quickly got out of bed. She was rather puzzled by how she ended up on the bed when she had clearly slept on the couch the previous night."How did I end up here?" Quinn complained. It was such a small bed; they were practically squished together like sardines. "I'm as baffled as you are. When I woke up, you were right here, snuggled up ne

    "You're free to go home now. Please take it easy at home and come back if you have any problems."Xavier hummed in response. He didn't like being hospitalized and found it quite inconvenient.As soon as Daniel left, Xavier instructed Ian, "Go take care of the discharge procedures. I'll drive Quinn to the company first.""It's okay; I can manage on my own. You should go home and get some rest." Given that Xavier had gotten hit by a car, he needed to be mindful of his condition."I told you, I'm fine. It was a very minor collision.""Very well then." Since he kept insisting that he was fine, she had no choice but to give in. With that, they left the ward together.As they were leaving, they ran into Maurice and Araminta in the corridor.As soon as Maurice spotted Quinn, he rushed toward her, exclaiming, "Are you aware of what you've done? How could you do such a thing?"Because of her, Simon had a broken nose and two fractured ribs. How could she be so brutal?With Maurice fumin

    "Enough is enough, Simon! I've been putting up with you for too long! You've been acting so differently since Quinn came back. What's your problem?"They had put in so much effort to get to this point, but the moment Quinn returned, he had become a completely different person.Kimberly seriously questioned whether he truly loved her."You're tired of putting up with me? You were the one begging to be with me, remember? I bet you only wanted to be with me because of my family's fortune, right? And now you're complaining? Did you find someone with deeper pockets?"Kimberly's eyes widened in disbelief as she took in Simon's harsh remarks. How could he have ever thought of her that way?With a heavy heart, Kimberly asked, "Does my love for you mean nothing at all?""Your love? What a joke! You're merely obsessed with taking everything Quinn has—her things and her social circle!"Simon was completely devastated. Back then, with Quinn gone, he had told himself that he had moved on fro

    Maurice had made arrangements for someone to pick up Lisa from the borderlands. With Lisa in his custody, Quinn would be compelled to obey him, no matter how strong she was. After all, Lisa was Quinn's only weakness."Alright. Go and wash your face, and then take good care of Simon. He's currently injured and in his most vulnerable state." Araminta urged Kimberly."By the way, Quinn took the memory card from Simon's dashcam. It has proof of him hitting someone with his car. If she releases this footage, Simon won't be able to join the research institute." After all, Quinn was bold and unpredictable."What? That can't be! That video must not be released. Otherwise, Simon will be doomed." Araminta frowned, baffled by the situation. Simon had always been rational. Thus, it puzzled her to see him lose control like this after Quinn's return."What should we do then? Quinn said that Simon would have to apologize in person. But given his current state..." Besides, considering Simon'

    Kimberly was anxious as well. Now that she had finally become a first-year student at M Research Institute, this news put her in an incredibly awkward situation. Even if she were to pass the exam now, she wouldn't be able to clear the research institute's background check. They wouldn't accept students with any flaws."Simon, what should we do? The news has just been disclosed, and all the affluent families in Jipsfort knew we're the ones who did it. If this continues, Quinn will ruin our future."Kimberly was truly terrified. She had worked tirelessly to get to where she was and going to M Research Institute was her lifelong dream. Once she entered the research institute, Quinn would have to admire her for the rest of her life.Simon was deeply distressed. He had reached out to the PR department of Xandor Group to address the chaotic news. But despite their tireless efforts, they still struggled to remove all the online posts. The situation deeply alarmed Shania, who went t

    Nadia was thrilled about the upcoming event. At first, she had been reluctant when Xavier had reached out to her and requested her help taking Quinn somewhere. Although Nadia held him in high regard, she was determined not to assist him if Quinn didn't approve of him. It was crucial for Quinn to have feelings for him. However, as soon as Nadia learned about Xavier's intentions, she swiftly changed her mind. She had long been displeased with Simon and Kimberly's behavior, so she was naturally happy to see them publicly apologize to Quinn.Quinn had been busy with work and had no idea about the trending topics online. She had realized that she hadn't seen Nadia for two days, so she had agreed to meet the latter for dinner.Quinn had just left the office when she spotted Maurice heading her way.

    "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
