Chapter 90

Author: Miss Jean-Jean
"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. He had come to see her because of the trending topic online

    Maurice was also feeling frustrated. Shania had been pressuring him, and the Jowell family had the power they held today because of the Xandor family. And now Shania was truly unhappy with the Jowell family. Thankfully, Shania had a great fondness for Kimberly. Otherwise, Maurice feared that the Xandor family would not let Jowell family go."What else can we do? Let's go back now and check if she left the memory card at home."They hesitated to take action because they were afraid that she would release the video. However, if they were to destroy the memory card, Quinn would have no other recourse. She would then be the one who pleaded for mercy."I've asked someone to search for it, but it's not at home. Surely, she must be carrying such important evidence with her.""What should we do now, then? She's too strong for regular people. Even the bodyguards couldn't defeat her last time." It was impossible to take it forcefully."Forget about it. Let the Xandor family deal with th

    Some believed that Simon would eventually apologize. After all, Simon hadn't left the hospital since Quinn had come back. It seemed that she was truly intimidating now.After Nadia and Quinn finished dinner, Xavier came to pick them up. He had something to attend to that night and couldn't join them for dinner, but he had reserved the restaurant for them. As Xavier appeared, Quinn glanced at Nadia, who visibly flinched. "Don't worry, Quinny. I didn't do anything to disappoint you. I'm on your side. I just really dislike that scumbag, Simon, and want to humiliate him." She was just delighted that Xavier could get Simon to apologize."Alright, I'll head to Nocturnal Club and wait for you. Tonight, almost all the scions in Jipsfort are gathering at the club to witness Simon's embarrassing moment. You must come," Nadia exclaimed as she opened the car door and got in, leaving Quinn with Xavier."Let's go to Nocturnal Club." Xavier opened the car door, gesturing for her to step in. Qu

    "We've discussed this before. You have a stomach issue and can't drink alcohol. This cocktail looks stunning, but the alcohol content is quite high." Xavier looked concerned."Xavier, we're not related at all. What gives you the right to control me?" Their relationship didn't give them the authority to control each other.Xavier was speechless, wondering why she was so stubborn. Her words truly had the power to provoke him. "Who do I need to be to control you? You can be whoever you need to be." Xavier just wouldn't yield.At that moment, Nadia arrived and was thrilled to see the bustling crowd at Nocturnal Club. She vividly recalled how Simon had publicly humiliated Quinn in front of these people back then. Now, it would be so interesting for him to apologize to Quinn in front of them."Why hasn't Simon arrived yet? Is he afraid to come?" Nadia took a seat next to Quinn."No idea."Quinn actually didn't care about Simon. Five years ago, she had been young and naïve; she had been

    Dylan realized that Quinn was the reason why Samuel had been behaving strangely over the past two days.Samuel glanced in the direction he had indicated and spotted the woman who had raced with him that night. Her long hair cascaded down her back, and she was clad in a black suspender top. As she tilted her head back to take a sip, the liquid slid down her throat. She exuded an undeniable allure.Samuel's heart was racing so rapidly that he instinctively pressed his hand against his chest. He was already captivated by just observing her. He found himself moving toward Quinn uncontrollably, eventually stopping beside her.Nadia was the first to notice Samuel. Feeling a burning gaze, Quinn turned around and saw him as well. However, the next second, she quickly averted her gaze and ignored him."Hi, what's your name? Can I add you on Instagram?" Samuel couldn't resist striking up a conversation, despite knowing it was inappropriate.Quinn looked back at him again, not saying any

    Samuel couldn't help but wonder what Quinn had gone through. The mere thought of it filled him with immense sadness."Sam, there are all kinds of women around you. It's best if you avoid getting involved with her."Whether it was the Jowell family or the Xandor family, they were influential and complicated. Although Samuel came from the Kane family, he wasn't given much attention by his own family. Hence, it was better to avoid provoking anyone. Samuel remained silent, his gaze fixed on Quinn.As Xavier's anger grew increasingly frightening, Nadia pulled Quinn's hand. "Quinny, he's actually really nice to you." Xavier was a true man; he was willing to stand up to the entire Xandor family for her.Quinn felt slightly annoyed. She never liked being forced into doing things. At worst, it would lead to a direct confrontation. What truly put her on edge was the thought of people being kind to her. The hardest thing to do in this world was to repay a favor.

    "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
