When She Turns Her Back Chapter 916
Christian had no intention of fighting for her anymore. He just disdainfully asked, "How long can she stay in your arms anyway?"Quentin answered without hesitation. "A lifetime."Christian laughed coldly at his response.Quentin didn't want to argue with Christian. He looked down at Talia in his arms, then asked, "Will you move now?"Christian didn't respond, but he stood blocking Quentin's path, refusing to budge.The standoff continued.Quentin grew somewhat angry. He narrowed his eyes, and the coldness in them was slowly consuming his rationality.Just as he was about to lose his temper, Talia suddenly stirred in his arms. Quentin looked down and quickly called out softly, "Talia, are you awake?"Talia opened her eyes. When she saw Quentin, she froze for a moment. But once her memories returned, she felt a sharp pain in her leg.She forced herself to endure the pain and answered Quentin's concern. "Mm."Quentin finally smiled. He lowered his head, wanting to nuzzle Talia'

Christian was deeply displeased by Quentin's brazen ambition. He said angrily, "Quentin, as long as I'm alive, you'll never be with her."Quentin laughed at Christian's words. "Never?"After laughing, Quentin's expression darkened, and his tone turned cold. "Christian, what does it matter if you won't agree to the divorce? Her heart's with me. What can you change?"Christian refused to believe Quentin. He protested loudly, "That's impossible."A faint smile played on Quentin's lips. He said quietly, "The moment you abandoned her to go to Nancy, you'd already lost."Quentin's words left Christian feeling utterly humiliated.The next moment, he stepped back, pulled a gun from his waist, and held the black pistol loosely in his palm. After cocking it, he aimed the barrel at Quentin's forehead.When Christian drew the gun, both groups of men facing off behind them froze in shock.But Quentin alone remained unfazed. He stared directly at Christian, even stepping forward to press his

Quentin's eyes narrowed further. "Is that so?"Mick answered without hesitation. "Yes... Yes, that's right."The moment he finished speaking, Quentin's grip tightened again, and Mick spat out a mouthful of blood.The next moment, cold fury flashed in Mick's eyes. He snarled, "If you got the balls, go ahead and kill me."Quentin laughed coldly. He released Mick's jaw and wiped the blood on his hand onto Mick's shirt.Finally, he smiled bitterly and growled, "Kill you? That would be too easy."He straightened slightly, his gaze never leaving Mick. Still smiling, he said, "I'm going to make you wish you were dead. I'm going to make you regret everything."With that, Quentin stood. He instructed Jericho, "Keep them here. Get the truth out of them. I want the real story."He deliberately emphasized those last words.Jericho understood and nodded. "Don't worry, Mr. Henderson. I'll take care of it."Quentin turned back. Ignoring his own injuries, he bent down and scooped Talia into

When Quentin burst in with his men, the group surrounding Talia froze in terror. Their faces went pale as they stared at the doorway, as if they'd seen something horrifying.Mick released Talia. He looked at Quentin in shock, his voice full of dread and surprise. "Quentin Henderson?"After Quentin entered, his gaze immediately locked onto Talia cowering in the corner. She was using both hands to protect herself. Her clothes had been pulled down from her shoulder, exposing half her shoulder and the strap of her black bra.Even though the men had released her, she still huddled protectively, retreating toward the corner. She'd already reached the wall, but kept trying to shrink back further.Quentin saw the terror and anxiety in Talia's eyes. His chest tightened.When he looked back at Mick, Quentin's expression turned ice-cold. He waved his hand and ordered Jericho behind him, "Hold them down. Don't let a single one escape."After giving the order, Quentin walked toward Talia. Whe

Nancy slowly turned to look at Christian. She saw his furrowed brows gradually smooth out as she woke.She opened her mouth, but her throat was parched, and she couldn't get a single word out.Christian's cold voice cut in, "Since you're awake, I'll be going."Finally, Nancy managed to speak with difficulty. She asked Christian anxiously, "Are you still mad at me?"Christian didn't want to explain. He just kept insisting, "I have urgent business. We can talk about everything else later."With that, Christian left the hospital room without hesitation.Nancy lay in a hospital bed. She'd wanted to call out to Christian, but remembering Jennifer's words, she forced herself to hold back.Even if she called him back now, he wouldn't necessarily be willing to stay with her.…When Talia woke up, everything was pitch black. After her eyes barely adjusted to the darkness, she made out scattered specks of light. She figured that it must be light filtering in from outside.She struggled

Seeing that it was Jennifer calling, Christian had no desire to answer it. He let the phone ring until it disconnected automatically. But seconds after it hung up, the phone rang again.When he saw it was still Jennifer, Christian answered with irritation. "What?"His voice carried heavy dissatisfaction.Jennifer didn't dwell on his tone. She cried and begged, "Chris, could you please check if Nancy's at the villa? I've been calling her, and she won't answer. I'm worried about her."Christian replied with some annoyance, "I don't have time. I have my own things to deal with."Jennifer didn't blame him. She persisted, "Chris, Nancy's never like this. No matter what happens, she always answers my calls. But today, she's not. "I'm afraid something might have happened to her, and I'm not there. I'd never forgive myself."Jennifer's words made Christian soften and compromise. "I'll call Emma and have her check next door."Jennifer finally relaxed. "Thank you, Chris. If you hear any

After Yvonne left, Talia taught Maeve how to draw maple leaves and grass. But while they were drawing, someone called out from behind, "Ms. Stewart?"Talia looked toward the voice and saw Evan. Beside him was Seamus, who had traded his suit for casual clothes and sneakers that day.The man was in

Even though Quentin appeared to be avoiding her gaze, Talia still spoke up to thank him. "Willow told me about what happened last night. Thank you."Quentin didn't respond or look at her. He didn't move forward or back either. He just stood beside Talia, turning his face away.Noticing how he was

Christian quickly answered the call, but the background was somewhat noisy—he must have been at the hospital.Christian's voice came through the phone. "Yvonne?"Hearing her father call her, Yvonne couldn't hold back. Her eyes instantly turned red, and tears trickled down. She couldn't help sobbin

Talia had also heard Nancy's shout. Without thinking, she dropped the food in her hand and ran outside.Willow, seeing this, hurried after her.They, along with others, went to the venue's backyard to search for Yvonne.Talia was frantic. She couldn't even tell whether the drops on her face were
