“Wow, Boss Quinn. That’s so rude. The missus cooked it herself, you know.” By then, Kevin had spent a few days with Jenna and became so familiar with her that he was close to calling her ‘bro’ too.Kevin took a big sip of the soup out of regard to Jenna, but then his expression twisted.“Since you like it so much, you can finish it.” Quinn appeared as if he had not seen Kevin’s twisted expression. “No need to be polite.”“Does it really taste that bad?” Jenna muttered in dissatisfaction.In the end, she took a sip as well and was nearly sent to the afterlife on the spot by the weird taste.Kevin was considered polite, swallowing that gulp of soup with a do-or-die attitude. “Ma’am, cooking is part of the helper’s job. You should stay away from the kitchen in the future. Cooking doesn’t suit you.”“You drank the soup I made and still look down on me for it?” Jenna did not dare say anything to Quinn, so she turned to bully Kevin instead. “You have to finish this whole pot of soup to
Jenna could feel the skin under her touch getting hotter as she grew more uncomfortable. “Y-you can think so if you want.”Her life was his anyway, so what was going to bed with him in comparison to that?Quinn saw the woman close her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling and felt deeply amused. The faint aroma of white tea made him unconsciously breathe a little harder.After a few seconds, Quinn took the initiative to put some distance between them by letting go of her. “You can leave.”Jenna was stunned for a few seconds. However, after seeing that the man was really not make any further action, she scrambled out of the bathtub. Right up until she closed the bathroom door after her, her heart was beating wildly.She even thought he needed her, but in the end, that was not it…Jenna was about to leave when she stepped on the slacks lying on the rug. She picked up the clothes, and a pendant fell out of the shirt.It was the Tiffany pendant from that day that she thought was a pres
Jenna belatedly realized something and looked at Quinn, eyes wide. “Quinn, could you have called me to the master bedroom last night for this matter?”“What else did you think it was for?” Quinn asked with a smile that did not reach his eyes. “To ask you to help me wash my hair?”Jenna had nothing to say in reply.At the memory of what happened last night in the bathroom and of her inwardly griping whether the man would still be such a pampered prince in bed, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to be swallowed by the floor.No wonder Quinn asked her about her area of study—he wanted to arrange a job for her…“Boss Quinn, you’re a bad president,” Kevin said, his words muffled around the roll in his mouth. “You’re arranging for your own wife to go work at your company. Isn’t it enough for her to get in through the back door? You have to make her sit through an interview too. Even the CEOs in novels are more appealing than you are!”Quinn snorted. “If she doesn’t have the ability
Since it was office hours and the other party seemed to be working, her friend request was very quickly approved.Jenna did not say anything except send over two videos and some pictures.Soon after, the other party sent her a message.Once she was done chatting with them, Jenna used the computer to transfer money to the other party. Once the two had come to an agreement, she felt relieved, but her back broke out in a cold sweat.When Quinn Forester gave her this card, he might have already guessed what she wanted to do.Thinking back on it now, no matter if it was when she was rammed into by a car and Sam suddenly appeared to save her, or when they were at the banquet and she used the video to humiliate Shawn Sadler and Yvonne Nelson…That man seemed to know her every step like the back of his hand.“K-Kevin.” Jenna asked Kevin nervously, “Have I offended Quinn in any way?”Kevin thought for a bit before nodding. “Yeah. Didn’t you guys argue this morning when you guys were hav
Old Madam Forester stood to the side, looking at Jenna from the corner of her eye, with her gaze revealing a few hints of appreciation.It turned out that she had already recognized Jenna when she came over.When Hanson returned home that day to report to her, he had also provided Jenna’s information as well as the latest news about Jenna.The old madam was anxious about Quinn’s marriage. After all, the Foresters were an incredibly wealthy family, and Jenna, for one, had no family background worth speaking of or a good reputation. So, of course, she had strong opinions about their marriage.She was just about to call Quinn to bring her home so she could make Jenna understand and retreat before the impossible.However, today, just as she came out to shop for clothes for Quinn, she happened to run into Jenna. Moreover, her way of handling things made the old madam change her mind.It looked like Q was not playing at anything this time and had found a good granddaughter-in-law for h
Of the suit styles and colors Jenna picked out, the old Mrs. Forester liked them all.Once Jenna was done picking out two suits for Quinn Forester, she saw that the tie displayed in the case also looked good and picked a few out.“Granny, these two ties match very well with the suits you picked out.” As she said that, she handed the black card to the salesperson. “These two ties are gifts, so please wrap them a little nicer.”“Let me,” the old Mrs. Forester stopped her. “How can I make you pay for it?”“It’s fine. The two ties don’t cost much.” Jenna pushed her card back toward her. “You accompanied me and chatted with me for so long. I haven’t even thanked you properly yet.”“That won’t do. That’s one thing, and this is another.”Jenna pondered before saying, “Granny, there’s a dress store upstairs. Why don’t you gift me a dress, and we’ll call it even?”“Sure.” The old Mrs. Forester finally smiled.The products in that dress store upstairs were completely handmade. Not only w
Jenna had ordered a whole bunch of takeout and was sitting with Kevin Sander in the cafe across from the Orchid Pavilion Hotel enjoying her meal.Not long afterward, she saw a taxi stop at the curb by the hotel.When she saw Shawn Sadler get out of the taxi and walk into the hotel with a grim expression, Jenna curled her red lips and used her phone to send off a text, then stood up.“Let’s go watch the show, Kevin!”Riding the elevator up, Shawn Sadler very quickly reached the door of room 2588 and recalled the incident half a month ago. His expression grew even more menacing.Was this Jenna’s handiwork?Shawn Sadler was in the middle of suspecting the above when he faintly heard a woman’s moans coming out of room 2588. He clenched his jaw, raised his leg, and kicked the door hard.With another two or three kicks, he managed to kick the door open and walked into the room with big steps.The naked pair on the bed was so engrossed in each other that they had not heard the sound o
“For fuck’s sake, Yvonne, I’ve had enough of you!” Hank was unmoved by her tears and was even disgusted.“Ever since our university days, you’ve been playing me for a fool and making me wait for you. In the end, you looked down on me for being poor and turned right around to get together with Shawn Sadler without even breaking up with me.“Let me tell you, Shawn Sadler. I slept with her ten years ago! Luke is my child!“Do you know why she can so confidently say she’ll bring the kid to do a DNA test? It’s because the city hospital’s DNA department head has taken quite a lot of bribes from Yvonne. Whatever results she wants, he’ll be able to provide it for her!”“What nonsense are you spouting, Hank Jacobs?! Shut up!” Yvonne, not expecting that he would reveal everything, went crazy with anger and rushed at him to claw his mouth off.Hank pushed Yvonne away forcefully. “Everything I said is true, so how is it nonsense?”“Oh, right. Shawn Sadler, there’s something else you don’t kn
