Three Years in Disguise, One Shocking Reveal Chapter 35
Xavier couldn't say exactly when he'd fallen in love with Quinn.Perhaps it had happened during one of those moments when she'd looked up at him with her plain, freckled face and smiled, her eyes sparkling with happiness.Or perhaps it had been the night he'd gotten hopelessly drunk, and she'd gently wiped the sweat from his forehead as she cared for him.The Quinn he'd fallen for wasn't a breathtaking beauty or a wealthy heiress. At least, he hadn't known her as either of those things.She'd simply been the kindest, sweetest girl he'd ever met.By the time he'd finally understood his own feelings, however, it was too late. Only after losing her had he realized just how deeply he'd loved her."I'm sorry, Quinn..." he whispered.Then his eyes slowly closed."XAVIER!"...Despite every effort to save him, Xavier didn't survive.The Lawson family held a funeral for him, and Natalie came to pay her respects.The last time she'd attempted suicide in front of Xavier, she'd come dangerously c

It was all her fault...The thought gripped Quinn like a demon, paralyzing her with guilt. Her fingers had gone rigid, and although the emergency button on her watch was within easy reach, she couldn't bring herself to press it.Xandra was already raising the knife, aiming straight for Quinn's heart.Then, just as the blade was about to strike, someone shouted her name."Quinn!"A figure burst into the private dining room and threw himself in front of her without the slightest hesitation.Quinn's eyes widened in disbelief as she recognized him."XAVIER!"It was Xavier Lawson.He'd rushed into the room at the very last second, putting himself directly between Quinn and the knife.Another figure came charging in right behind him.Ryan Sawyer.The sight before him left Ryan momentarily stunned, but he reacted almost immediately, ordering his bodyguards to seize Xandra and the men she'd brought with her.The thugs were nothing more than petty criminals, and Ryan's men quickly overpowered t

The moment Nina mentioned Xandra, Quinn felt a sudden chill. She had a terrible suspicion, and she immediately sprang to her feet, intending to leave. But before she could reach the door, she heard the unmistakable click of a lock.A second later, Xandra appeared through a side entrance, accompanied by several young men who looked like common street thugs."Well, well. Long time no see, Quinn." Xandra's smile was sinister, her voice dripping with a sickening sweetness. "Did you miss me?"It had only been a few months since they'd last seen each other, yet Xandra was barely recognizable.She'd always been pretty, with delicate features and a fresh, innocent look. Now her face was buried beneath layers of garish makeup, and the overpowering scent of cheap perfume wafted from her revealing, poorly made clothes. Everything about her looked flashy and tawdry, a far cry from the girl Quinn remembered."What do you want, Xandra?" Quinn demanded coldly."What do I want?" Xandra seized her chi

"What?"Xavier paused, then opened the recovered file. But the moment the video began playing, he froze.It was the last video Quinn had been working on before everything was destroyed.To everyone's surprise, however, it wasn't the short film she'd made for her mother.It was a video she'd put together to commemorate their relationship.On the screen, Quinn still had the plain, freckled face she'd worn throughout their time together. But no amount of makeup could conceal the happiness shining in her eyes.The video captured all their little milestones: their first dinner date, the first time they'd held hands, and countless ordinary moments from their everyday lives.Things that might have seemed insignificant to anyone else had been lovingly edited into something warm, sweet, and full of affection.Even the footage she'd secretly taken of him sleeping showed just how deeply she'd adored him.Xavier stared at the screen, feeling as though a knife had been driven straight through his c

Xavier grabbed Quinn's hand before she could walk away."Quinn—"She turned to face him, her expression as still and lifeless as a stagnant pool."Xavier Lawson, I always thought you were at least the kind of man who knew when to let go. And right now... that's one of the very few things I can still find to respect about you."Her voice was quiet, but the coldness beneath it cut deep."So don't make me lose what little respect I have left for you."Those words seemed to drain every last ounce of strength from Xavier's body.Quinn pulled her hand free and walked away without looking back....Quinn later heard that Xavier had flown back to Bellridge that very night.She was surprised at first, but after giving it some thought, she decided it was only natural.Xavier had always been fiercely proud, a man who lived entirely by his own sense of superiority. How could someone like him possibly lower himself to keep chasing after her?The thought brought a bitter smile to her lips. She soon

She'd also confessed to pretending to call Xavier in front of Quinn, deliberately making her believe he was on the other end of the line.Only then had Xavier finally learned what Quinn had endured on the day of the graduation performance.He immediately obtained the surveillance footage from her classroom. There, on the screen, he watched as Quinn was pinned to the floor, crying and begging her classmates not to humiliate her mother, while they painted a pig's nose on her face.For the first time in his life, Xavier understood what it meant to feel as though his heart were being torn apart.The girl he loved had been subjected to such terrible cruelty, and what had he been doing?He'd known nothing about it. Instead, he'd been frantically searching for Natalie, worried because she'd suddenly left the hospital!Xavier wasted no time taking action.He tracked down everyone who had participated in Quinn's humiliation, from the class representative to Xandra, including every last person w
