"What's Maurice even worth? What makes you think I'm still hung up on him? Being blind once was enough. I'm not so pathetic as to be failed by the same man twice," Lisa said.Jillian continued snapping photos. In the frame, Lisa looked fierce and assertive, while Winona was on her knees, looking pitiful.The scene was a dramatic spectacle.Netizens would surely feel sympathy for an elderly woman begging on the ground."Forgiveness is a virtue, Lisa. Is it really necessary to go this far?""Are you done talking, Grandma?"Just then, Quinn and Xavier arrived. Quinn had been worried ever since Lisa decided to face Jillian alone.She was concerned that the stress might be too much for her, given that she hadn't fully recovered yet. But seeing Lisa's determined stance, Quinn felt more at ease."Quinny, no matter what, he's still your dad. Are you really going to push him to the brink?""Push him to the brink? I haven't pushed him. He tried to kill me and my mom and take over my mom

The public outcry was immediate and intense.Just a short while ago, the netizens were apologizing to Quinn. But now, she was portrayed as a ruthless capitalist.It was truly shocking to see someone act so cold-heartedly toward an elderly person."Get out of Jipsfort, Quinn Jowell! We don't want someone so heartless here.""Bitch! I usually don't like to use harsh language, but today I can't hold back. That's her own grandmother! Even if the old lady did something wrong, she's still her grandmother! How could she treat her like that? Doesn't she have a conscience?""That's her mother next to her, right? The woman who betrayed her husband five years ago. Seeing her like this now is so satisfying! To all the cheating women out there, take note! Karma will always get you.""Why talk so much? Is there anyone out there who wants to teach this bitch a lesson? If so, count me in.""Are you serious? Are you really going to teach her a lesson? Alright, let's all wait and see. Hopefully,

Seeing Xavier come out alone, Ian felt sympathy for him."Xav, this is what it's like when you fall for a strong woman. She seems to handle everything on her own. I guess you're not used to it."Xavier actually hoped that Quinn might depend on him. But Quinn had always treated their relationship as a fleeting romance. She never took it seriously."I get it. Shut up."Nadia shook her head at the scene. "Give Quinny some time, Xavier. She just doesn't believe in love right now. But trust me, her feelings for you are different."Even when Quinn was dating Simon, they had never been as close as Quinn and Xavier were."I know.""Hang in there. I'm rooting for you."Lisa knew this scandal would make waves. She wanted to go online, but Quinn wouldn't give her the phone."You don't need to worry about anything, Mom. Just focus on resting and leave the rest to me." Quinn leaned on Lisa's shoulder."I'm feeling much better now, Quinny. I can face the past." She accepted the fact that s

Simon nodded."Fine. You'll never listen to whatever I say anyway. You've always been stubborn. If it weren't for that, how could Dad have left?""Simon Xandor!"Shania was infuriated. Baxter's departure had always been a sore spot for her. She had never wanted to bring it up, but now, Simon was making such a remark."I'm being serious, Mom. You need to change your temper. If things keep going like this, I'm afraid our family won't last. Alright, I have an experiment to conduct. I won't be home tonight."With that, Simon turned and walked out.Shania's anger only grew."Go on. Just leave! You all act like you can't stand being at home, as if there are ghosts here! Your dad was like this, and now you are too. What spell did Lisa and Quinn cast on you?"Why did everyone have to hurt her so much for the sake of Lisa and Quinn? Hadn't she already sacrificed enough?Just then, Baxter, who had been missing for five years, returned.Upon arriving, he saw Shania in this state.Shani

However, Quinn wouldn't let Baxter see Lisa.As Quinn left the café, she ran into Jacob, who was pleasantly surprised to see her. "Ms. Jowell, are you here having coffee with friends?"Quinn shook her head."I see. I still owe you a meal for the help you gave me last time. Since it's lunchtime, would you honor me with a meal?""Sorry, I have other matters to attend to.""Then we'll have to do it another time."Jacob genuinely admired Quinn and hoped she would join the Criminal Investigation Department. Even if she couldn't officially join, being a consultant and helping out when needed would be beneficial.With her around, solving cases would be a breeze.After leaving the café, Quinn took a cab. Just as she got in, Luna's call came through."Do you have time now, Ms. Jowell? Because of the situation online, the shareholders have been calling non-stop, and some have even come to the company directly. Can you…?"Luna fully trusted Quinn, but her belief alone wasn't enough. If

Quinn said, "I think you should just sell it to me directly.""Are you sure?" one of the shareholders asked."Yeah.""Well, I'm not selling to you."Quinn found the situation amusing.Shania still hadn't learned her lesson and was trying to take over Four Seasons Incorporated. She was just too greedy."Then let's see if Xandor Group has the spare cash to buy the stocks you're holding," Quinn said indifferently.The shareholders didn't bother to pay Quinn any attention.Xandor Group had been frequently in the news recently, but regardless, their strength was top-notch. They definitely had the funds to back up their claims.The shareholders left without another word."Anyone else? If you want to sell your stocks, you can either sell to me or choose to sell to Xandor Group. However, as I said before, Xandor Group may not necessarily have the cash for you."The remaining shareholders looked at each other. They were unsure of what to decide. Quinn seemed incredibly confident. May

Archie still felt uneasy."To be honest, we're in the middle of a major deal with Patterson Group, so funds are a bit tight right now. But don't worry. This amount is nothing we can't handle. When the time is right, I can introduce you to the Pattersons," Shania said enticingly.Archie's interest was piqued. If he could secure a partnership with the Pattersons, it would be like winning the lottery. Who wouldn't want that?"Alright then, I'll give you one week, Ms. Xandor."Meanwhile, Shania's aggressive purchase of Four Seasons Incorporated stocks was stirring up discontent among the shareholders within Xandor Group.Many of them felt she was betting too much on a risky venture, especially given Quinn's formidable skills. It was clear that Shania had locked horns with her.A few shareholders voiced their concerns, but Shania flew into a rage. "Xandor Group belongs to the Xandor family! I make the decisions here, not you!"No matter what the others said, Shania was determined. Sh

It wasn't until now that Shania realized she had been played."Mrs. Xandor, your only way out now is to sell the Four Seasons Incorporated stocks. But with the amount you hold, I doubt you'll find a buyer with enough cash any time soon," Quinn said smoothly.Shania was frustrated, but she couldn't show it. "Just you wait. I'll get Four Seasons Incorporated, no matter what.""Bold words. Then let's see who takes down who first." With that, Quinn ended the call.Tomorrow, when the market opened, she was determined to push Xandor Group to rock bottom. Only then would Shania truly be cornered on all fronts.Xavier had been beside Quinn the whole time. He observed how she maneuvered through the situation.As she hung up the phone, he walked over and clinked his glass against hers. "Well done."Her plan had been executed flawlessly. Even Xavier had to admit it was brilliant. Step by step, Quinn had outwitted Shania, who was clearly no match for her.Quinn leaned back against the couc

Only after using up his last bit of strength did Xavier finally hold Quinn and drift off to sleep.The next morning, Quinn felt as if her back was about to break.Xavier gently massaged her back. "Was I too rough?"Quinn didn't respond.Once he was in bed, he seemed to throw caution to the wind. Well, that was normal for a man like him.Whatever he did, he did his best. Quinn couldn't find anything to complain about in bed."Are you angry? Don't be. I'll go easier next time," he said, though he often found it hard to control himself once he got caught up in the moment.Quinn rolled her eyes at him. She wasn't going to fall for his sweet talk. If she did, it would be quite foolish.As Xavier continued to massage her, he started getting aroused again. Though she didn't do anything, he just couldn't help himself around her. She was simply too tempting.He kissed her on the lips, and their kisses became more heated.Just as things were about to escalate, Quinn pushed him away and

Ian suddenly felt his heart racing. He placed his hand over his chest while trying to calm himself.At that moment, Nadia released his arm."Let's go. Lisa is making breakfast. I'll go help her." Although Nadia didn't like cooking, she could manage helping out.Looking at the spot where she had grabbed him, Ian felt a bit awkward.Xavier watched them leave. Then he went back to his room to shower and change, though he had already showered the night before. However, his lingering desire needed to be treated with a cold shower.Quinn and Xavier came out of their rooms about the same time.Quinn was dressed casually in a black tracksuit with her long hair loose. Her natural beauty shone through without any makeup. Such was the charm of a top beauty.Xavier's hair was still wet. He wore a black shirt with only the bottom two buttons fastened. His sexy chest was exposed.Quinn frowned at the sight.Lisa was around. Was this outfit appropriate?She walked up to him and fastened his
