Jenna immediately walked around and only then noticed that a metal piece from the shell of the car had stabbed into Quinn’s back, which was dripping with blood.No wonder she could smell blood earlier…Jenna’s heart wrenched hard at the sight, and she instantly took off the scarf around her neck to hold it to the wound, attempting to stop the bleeding.“Kevin, stop a car!”“Okay!” Kevin was just about to stop a car when Sam just so happened to come to pick Quinn up.Upon seeing the scene before him, Sam’s expression grew ugly, and he immediately told Kevin to drive them to the hospital while he stayed behind to deal with the scene.The car sped all the way to the hospital.In the backseat, Jenna sat next to Quinn as she held both her hands to the man’s back.The scarf had long been drenched with blood, but still, blood kept flowing.Even after suffering such a serious injury, Quinn’s expression remained calm.He seemed to be able to feel that the hands on his back were trembl
When Kevin heard the words “the dark room”, goosebumps rose all over his body. “No way, Big Bro! I was wrong, okay? Who’s going to take care of the missus if I go?”“There are many helpers here at Sparrow Garden! The missus doesn’t need your care!”Kevin was silent in response.Seeing Sam’s temper rise and seemingly about to heavily punish Kevin, Jenna hurriedly said, “Kevin isn’t entirely to blame for this incident. The other party was just too cunning. Scolding him is enough.”If it were not for Kevin hacking into Yvonne’s phone and discovering her secrets, how could she have taken revenge against that cur and b*tch pair?Either way, she had to thank Kevin.After hearing Jenna say so, Sam’s expression seemed somewhat mollified. He glared at Kevin again. “Shouldn’t you be thanking the missus?!”“Thank you for saving my life, Ma’am.” Kevin wiped the sweat on his forehead. “Or else, by the time I come out of the dark room, you’ll only be able to see my corpse.”Amused, Jenna cou
Sam’s expression immediately became stern. “How do you know of Miss Langham?”Kevin shrugged. “While I don’t follow Boss Quinn around often, that doesn’t mean I’m deaf and blind. I know basically everything about Miss Langham and Boss Quinn’s past together.”“Big Bro, this accident wasn’t aimed at Boss Quinn, was it?” He suddenly asked.Seeing Sam did not reply, Kevin put the food in his hand down, and as if saying to himself, “The old madam wants a grandson. Though, considering Boss Quinn’s methods, couldn’t he have just hired a surrogate?“Moreover, didn’t the last two ladies just fake married Boss Quinn? Why did he have to formally register his marriage with Jenna?” Kevin said as a thought formed in his mind. “Is it because Miss Langham—”“That’s enough! Shut your mouth!” Sam shouted.To the left of the hall were the helpers’ living quarters. Although they were all likely asleep at this time of night, Sam did not want Kevin’s words to be overheard coincidentally by anyone.Af
Jenna returned the phone to Kevin and was about to pick up her orange juice when her phone on the table lit up.It was a message from an unknown number.[It’s Yvonne Nelson. I have evidence that Shawn Sadler killed your parents. If you want it, give me three million dollars in exchange!]As she read that message, Jenna’s eyes widened.When she went with Quinn Forester to the hotel, she found out that it was Yvonne who had dealt with the evidence, and her parents did not die in an accident.However, the last time Kevin hacked into Yvonne’s phone and computer, Jenna asked him to check carefully. However, they found nothing.Now, Yvonne was making the first move to contact her.Jenna suppressed the eagerness in her heart to agree and replied, [How are you sure I can afford the three million dollars? With this in your hands, you could get much more than three million from Shawn Sadler.]She did not believe Yvonne would have such an important piece of blackmail on Shawn Sadler but i
Kevin had never seen Miss Langham before, but seeing the way Quinn Forester was behaving, he was almost positive about the identity of the woman beside Quinn.Hearing Kevin curse, Jenna frowned. “It is really Quinn?”Though, in her impression, Quinn was constantly wearing an apathetic expression and liked to look down on others. He had never seemed as gentle as he was appearing now.“The woman beside Quinn…” Jenna suppressed the strange emotions in her heart and asked, “Is that his first wife?”After marrying Quinn, Jenna had read up on the Foresters’ background.She knew the Foresters had their roots in Portica and were one of Portica’s famous four great families. As the laws there were somewhat outdated in comparison, the previous generations of Forester men always took more than one wife.Originally, during Quinn Forester’s grandfather’s generation, he ordered that his descendants could only have one wife.Then came the worldwide economic crisis, which greatly impacted the Fo
Jenna, thinking that Yvonne Nelson had changed her number and was contacting her, immediately accepted the call.“Hello?”“Is this Miss Jenna Radcliff?” The other party asked politely.Realizing it was not Yvonne, her heart sank. She hummed in acknowledgment. “It is. May I know what you’re calling for?”“I’m from Elysian Group’s HR department,” the person said courteously. “We’re very interested in your resume. Are you free at 9 a.m. on Thursday for an interview at Elysian?”Jenna remembered she had sent Sam her resume but did not expect she would receive a call so soon.“I am. Do I need to bring any materials with me?”After Jenna finished her studies and returned from Dresark, she had never really worked. Once in a while, she would go overseas to help Shawn Sadler but had never interviewed at other companies before.She noted down the materials she needed to bring to the interview, and after chatting a little more, she hung up just as they arrived home.After entering the ho
Did the power go out?Jenna hastily turned on the flashlight on her phone. Through the corridor’s window, she saw that the streetlights outside were still illuminated. Faintly, she could hear Sam's voice downstairs saying that the circuit breaker had tripped, and he was going to check it.Maybe she would pass him the suit tomorrow when she had free time...Jenna was about to return when she heard movement faintly coming from the bedroom.It seemed like something had been knocked over.She was afraid Quinn might have accidentally bumped into something due to the sudden power outage, which could potentially worsen his back injury. Immediately, she knocked on the door. "Quinn, are you okay?""Mr. Forester?"After knocking on the door several times and not receiving a response from Quinn, Jenna started to feel anxious.Just as she was about to kick the door open, Quinn's muffled voice finally sounded from inside. "The door isn't locked. Come in.""Okay." Jenna let out a sigh of re
Due to the power outage, the bedroom was engulfed in darkness except for the area around the sofa. She could hear her own breathing, and it all felt unnaturally quiet to Jenna.She became even more nervous as she cleaned the man's wound.To ease the tension and break the silence, Jenna spoke up. "Thank you, Quinn. I owe you one."Quinn understood why she apologized. In the dim light, his deep gaze grew heavy.After a moment of silence, Quinn said, "Since we're married, it's my duty to protect you. There's no need for you to owe me any favors. If you had been injured that night, it would have been due to my failure as a husband."Jenna understood the dynamics between them, but upon hearing his last sentence, her heart uncontrollably skipped a beat.Quinn always gave her a sense of being protected, even if it was unspoken...Jenna murmured a vague response and focused on bandaging his wound.As she wrapped the bandage around his chest, she saw a cornflower the size of a coin loca
