When She Turns Her Back Chapter 1084
There was a dull ache somewhere in Christian's body, and fragments of the night before were starting to surface, coming back in broken pieces.He didn't want to believe that he'd actually done those things, but the memories were too vivid to deny. It had been him.Nancy noticed that Christian wouldn't even look at her. It stung, but her worry won out. "Chris, what happened to you?"He had no intention of admitting that he'd gone to find Talia, and even less interest in telling her that Quentin had beaten him up. So he kept his answer short and indifferent. "Nothing happened."However, Nancy wasn't buying it. "But your face...""I was drunk last night. I tripped and fell into something."He clearly didn't want to talk about it, so she let it go."Fine. You must be hungry. I'll get you something to eat."She turned and headed downstairs.In the kitchen, Emma was warming soup on the stove.Nancy walked in. "Emma."Emma turned around. "Ms. Yor... Mrs. Lane, what is it?"The old

Talia stayed pressed against Quentin, her cheek resting on his stomach, and didn't speak for a long time. When she finally answered, her voice was hoarse as she said, "I'll try."Quentin knew she was hurting. He held her for a while longer before gently letting go. He looked down at her and said, "Let me take you upstairs."She nodded. "Okay."When she stood, he took her hand and walked her up slowly, one step at a time.When they reached her bedroom door, he couldn't bring himself to leave. He pulled her into his arms and pressed a kiss to her forehead."I really don't want to be even a step away from you. If I could, I'd keep you in my pocket so I could take you out and look at you whenever I missed you."That made her laugh. She covered her mouth with her hand and said softly, "Go on. If you don't leave now, you'll be done even later."Instead of leaving, Quentin crouched before her and looked up at her. He asked, "Can I come see you when I'm done?"Last night and everything

Quentin ladled a bowl of soup for her without thinking. He'd barely set it down in front of her when Talia tugged at his sleeve. "Sit."He sat, then dragged his chair right up next to hers until their shoulders were nearly touching. Talia turned to look at him and realized just how close he was. If he leaned in even a fraction more, they'd be kissing.She held his gaze, her voice rough. "Quentin, I can't keep this from you. Christian and I aren't actually divorced yet."His expression didn't change. Under the table, he found her cold fingers and wrapped them completely in his hand. "I know."She stared at him. "How?"He reached up and gave her cheek a gentle pinch. "I've been paying attention to everything going on with you. Always."The words moved her, but the worry on her face didn't fade.He tightened his grip on her hand. "What is it? Still worried he won't agree to the divorce?"She nodded. "Yeah."The divorce had already dragged through multiple rounds, and every time t

Talia leaned into Quentin's arms as he kissed her, his mouth insistent against hers. He deepened the kiss, his tongue slipping past her lips as he stole the breath from her.She tilted her head back, exposing the pale line of her throat. He trailed his mouth down her neck, and a low sound escaped her before she could stop it. A current ran through her whole body.Quentin was burning up. Every part of him wanted to keep going.But Talia pressed both hands against his chest just in time. "Quentin, stop."His lips landed on the back of her hand instead. Something flickered behind his eyes, and a muscle jumped at his temple before he managed to speak."Okay. Whatever you say. I'll behave."He was still holding her up, his body radiating heat, but he forced everything down. Seeing him actually listen, so easily and without complaint, made her chest tighten.After a few seconds, she pushed at him lightly. "Put me down."He rested his forehead against hers and nudged it gently. "Tell

Garrett nodded and said, "Yeah. I know."He then headed for the front door. Quentin followed him despite being told not to.When Garrett reached the entrance, he stopped and turned around. He looked at Quentin for a moment and hesitated before he finally spoke. "Come for dinner on the second."Quentin blinked in confusion. It took him a second to understand, and then it hit him all at once.In Jarrowind, it was customary for a woman's boyfriend to visit her family's home on the second day of the new year. If Garrett was extending that invitation to him, it meant that he'd truly accepted him."I'll be there," Quentin said quickly. "I won't be late."Garrett left without saying another word.Quentin stood at the door watching him go. The moment Garrett disappeared through the front gate, Quentin was practically sprinting back to Talia. He grabbed her from her chair, lifted her clean off the ground, and spun her around.His voice rang through the room, bright and unrestrained. "Ta

Quentin turned to look at Talia the moment he took the envelope. She was already looking back at him. But where her eyes held surprise, his were bright with something closer to tears.Seeing him like that stirred something deep within her. Quentin was one of the proudest men she'd ever known, and he could have had anyone he wanted.Yet he'd chosen her, a woman who'd already been through a divorce and had a child. Part of her wondered if that was even fair to him.But then she thought about it differently. She had feelings for him too, and that was enough.Her gaze softened, and she smiled at him. The sight of that smile caught him beneath the ribs, as if his heart had missed a beat and couldn't quite recover.Paige walked over with an envelope of her own and held it out to Quentin. "This one's from me."He was clearly surprised, but he took it happily. "The fact that you and Garrett are giving me these means you've accepted me. That means more than I can say. Thank you, both of y

Rodney looked at Talia's bruised body and didn't feel any disgust. Instead, he was turned on.The fresh blood beneath her was like a drug, stirring his dark desires to commit a crime.Unable to restrain himself any longer, he kneeled on the bed and forced Talia's legs apart. He then placed one leg

Sensing Talia's low spirits, Quentin shot Evan a look, signaling him to go over and cheer her up.Evan immediately understood. He walked over and wrapped his arms around Talia. "Ms. Stewart, let's go make lunch."As Talia looked down at him, her eyes were full of guilt. "Evan, let me apologize to
