CHAPTER 91_ Caught in between

MATT'S POVShe nodded, "Sure, we can, Matt. I'll see you around."I gave her one final hug, holding on a little tighter than necessary. "Take care of yourself, Quinn," I whispered.Quinn smiled and pulled back, her eyes sparkling. "I will, Matt. You too, okay?"I forced a smile, feeling a pang of guilt. "Yeah, I will."With one final glance, she turned and walked out of the club, leaving me to my thoughts.As I watched her, I felt this wave of sadness over me. It's been a while I've seen her lately, ever since that incident. Bryan was doing everything in his power to keep her safe, hidden away from prying eyes like Jasper's reach.I let out a deep sigh, the weight of my own secrets crushing down on me.How about me?I've been working for Jasper, but my interest in Quinn has never been about the job.

CHAPTER 92_ The warning

QUINN'S POVI sat in the car, fiddling with my black glasses as I stared out at the sea of mourners gathered outside. Today is the day we say our final goodbyes to my father, the man who had once been the head of Sutherland Corporation.The company that Bryan now owned, and it is ironic that its investors had come crawling back after the ownership had been passed. The company was now one of the top three influential private businesses, and it seemed that his efforts would live on, even if he wasn't around to see it.I sat there, I couldn't help but think about mom. She is the reason I decided to attend this funeral, despite my reservations. She loved him, despite his flaws and all, and I knew that she would want me to be there for her today.I adjusted my scarf, making sure that it was securely in place. I managed to keep a low profile over the years, avoiding the blogs and the prying eyes of the public. Only a handful of people knew that I was my father's half-daughter, and I intended

CHAPTER 93_ Another dinner?

I felt like I was going to suffocate, so I stood there, still unsure of how to respond. The crowd grew louder, and I felt like I was being pulled in a million different directions.Suddenly, a hand grabbed my arm and pulled me through the crowd. I stumbled, but the hand held tight, leading me to safety.When we finally emerged from the chaos, I turned to see who my rescuer was. It was a guy with piercing gray eyes and a strong jawline. He looked familiar, but I couldn't quite place him."Thanks for saving me back there," I mumbled, still trying to catch my breath.He smiled and nodded. "No problem" in his deep and calm voice. "Let's get you out of here."Before I could respond, a black car pulled up beside us. The guy opened the back door and gestured for me to get in. I hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do.But I decided to trust him anyway. His calm demeanor put me at ease. I slid into the back seat, and he pulled out the front door and got in.As the car door closed. I felt

CHAPTER 94_ A gentle goodnight

As we finished our dinner, Jasper smiled at me, his eyes crinkling at the corners. "So, what did you think?" he asked, his voice low and husky.I took a sip of my wine, savoring the taste. "It was amazing," I said, meaning every word. "You're an incredible cook."He chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "I'm glad you enjoyed it," he said, his voice dripping with satisfaction.As we lingered over our drink, the conversation flowed easily. It was comfortable and so relaxing. The perfect break I needed from all the events happening around me.The moment we finished dinner, Jasper reached into his pocket and pulled out a thick stack of cash. He gently placed it in my purse, his eyes sparkling with kindness."That's for having dinner with me," he said with a smile.I felt a surge of surprise and embarrassment. "Jasper, nah, you didn't have to do that," I protested, trying to push the money back into his hands.But Jasper just chuckled and took my hands in his. "I don't want to be too

CHAPTER 95_ The fire play

-----------As I stood at the door, I knocked for the second time. The door slowly creaked open, and Eva's surprised face stared back at me. She glanced at her watch, then back at me, a look of confusion written on her face."Wouldn't you let me in?" I asked, raising my voice in mock annoyance.She silently stepped aside, allowing me to enter. As I walked in, I noticed that she was packing some items into her bag, with a brush held in her other hand."I wasn't expecting you," she said, her voice a little bit colder."Yeah, I know," I replied, settling onto the couch.Eva stopped in her tracks, her eyes narrowing slightly as she looked at me. "Jasper dropped me," I added, watching her reaction.Her eyes widened, and she stared at me skeptically. "Jasper? Again?" she asked.I nodded. "Yes, Jasper... what's wrong?" I asked, noticing Eva's concerned expression.Her eyes lingered on mine for a moment before she looked away, her hands moving quickly as she finished packing her bag."He's a r

CHAPTER 96_ Her absence

BRYAN'S POVI rubbed my tired eyes, staring blankly at the stack of files on my desk. It had been a long day, filled with back-to-back meetings and negotiations. My team had just closed a major deal with a Japanese tech firm, and I was still reeling from the excitement.As the CEO of three multinational companies, my days were always packed. But today has been particularly grueling. The meeting with our marketing team had run longer than expected, and I'd had to reconcile a heated discussion between our finance and operations departments.Just as I was about to call it a day, my assistant buzzed me. "Sir, it's getting late. Shall I have the car brought around?"I checked my watch, frowning. Quinn should have been home hours ago. I'd been so busy that I hadn't even had a chance to text and ask how her first day at work had gone. She wasn't even at the meeting earlier. So I'll just leave instead.---------As I stepped into the lobby of my penthouse apartment, I felt a wave of exhaustion

CHAPTER 97_ First Impressions

QUINN'S POVI woke up early, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness.Today was my first day at Aurora properties and capitals, and I was determined to make a good impression though. So, I got dressed in the suit he got me. And I loved it. I looked the part, looking like a no-nonsense lady boss that everyone was scared to step on her toes. With one final smack on my lips blending my gloss in, I headed downstairs. I noticed a text from Bryan wishing me good luck on my first day. I smiled, feeling a little more at ease.When I realized he was gone already. The smile vanished immediately.He couldn't even wait for me? I pushed the plate away, feeling a little frustrated. I knew Bryan was a busy man, but I had thought he would make an effort to be there for me on my first day. As I stared at the plate in front of me, I realized I wasn't really hungry. I was just too anxious, too nervous about today.I asked the chef to make me a light breakfast, staring at the tons of eggs and bacons

CHAPTER 98_ Shattered Crack

-----------The thrilling sound of the intercom made me startled. She picked it up, but the line went silent. Then my phone rang. I expected it to be Bryan, but instead, it was Miss Zara, my supposed predecessor."Hi Quinn, I hope you're doing well," Zara said, her voice dripping with sweetness. "I just realized I forgot to tell you something important. You can actually head home now. I'm so sorry, I feel terrible for keeping you so late."I raised an eyebrow, suspicious of her sudden change in behavior. But I decided to play along, curious to see where this would lead."Okay, thank you for letting me know," Quinn replied, trying to sound nonchalant."You're welcome, dear. Just head on home and get some rest. We'll catch up tomorrow."I hung up the phone, quickly packed up my things and headed out of the office building, feeling a mixture of relief and exhaustion. As I stepped out into the cool evening air, a familiar car was packed just in front, flashing in its headlights.I smiled,

CHAPTER 99_ The space between us

BRYAN'S POVI watched as the doctor finished wrapping my hands, his expression reassuring. "You'll be fine, Mr. Braxton. Just take it easy for the next few days and keep those hands wrapped. I'll come dress the wound too."I nodded, feeling a mix of relief and frustration. I hated being vulnerable, but I was grateful that the injuries weren't worse.As we left the doctor's office, I glanced over at Quinn. She looked pale and shaken, her eyes fixed on some point in front of her. I'd never seen her so scared before, not even when I was dealing with matters of her family.It was a strange feeling, knowing that she cared about me that much. I felt a pang of guilt for putting her through this, but at the same time, I was grateful for her concern.My driver pulled up beside us, and he got out to open the door. "Hello Sir, shall I take you home?"I nodded, helping Quinn into the car before getting in myself. As we drove away from the hospital, I tried to break the silence."Hey, I meant what

CHAPTER 100_ Into the Unknown

As we stepped into the house, I was immediately greeted by the staff, all of whom were eager to attend to my needs. My dry cleaner helped me out of my jacket and shoes, while Quinn walked ahead, her footsteps quiet on the stairs.I quickly caught up to her, my eyes fixed on the gentle sway of her hips. As we reached the top of the stairs, I reached out and lightly tapped her on the shoulder. "Spend the night with me?" I asked, my voice low and hopeful.She paused, her eyes searching mine as she turned to face me. I held my breath, unsure of how she'd respond. I wasn't used to making requests, especially not ones that felt so personal.But I couldn't help myself. I wanted her beside me, wanted to feel her warmth and her presence. And so I added, "I might need a little help," raising my arms to remind her of my injuries.Her gaze flickered to my arms, and then back to my face. For a moment, she just looked at me, her expression unreadable. And then, in a soft voice, she replied, "It's f
