When She Turns Her Back Chapter 914
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

The call went through, but no one answered. After the first call disconnected automatically, Quentin immediately dialed again.When the second call also went unanswered, Quentin decisively called Jericho instead.Jericho answered almost instantly, his voice hoarse. "Mr. Henderson, what's wrong?"Quentin didn't have time for extra explanations. He simply gave orders. "Help me find Talia. She's missing."Jericho responded immediately, "Understood. I'll get on it right away."After hanging up, Quentin turned to Garrett and Paige. "I'm going to look for Talia. If she comes back, please call me."Paige felt deeply uneasy. She wanted to ask for details, but Quentin was already so anxious. So she figured that something must be seriously wrong.Garrett noticed Quentin's expression and couldn't help worrying too. "I'll come with you."Quentin nodded. "Okay."Then he turned to Paige. "Paige, this is Evan. He's my friend's son. Could you please watch him for me?"Paige opened her mouth,

At 5:00 pm, Quentin took Evan on the bumper cars one last time.After getting off, Quentin crouched in front of Evan and coaxed him gently, "It's time. We're going to visit your godmother now."Evan was still reluctant to leave, but since Quentin had asked so nicely, he agreed. "Okay. I miss her anyway."Once Evan agreed, Quentin took his hand and went to the supermarket. He bought some gifts, fruit, and toys before driving to the Stewart residence.By the time they reached the Stewart residence, the sky had darkened completely. The streetlights were on. Snow was still falling outside, coming down thick and heavy like down feathers.Evan stood by the roadside wearing his little gloves and hat, waiting for Quentin to get things from the car.Quentin brought out some fruit, and Evan reached out to take it. "Let me carry it."Quentin handed the fruit to Evan and said gently, "If it's too heavy, tell me. I can carry it."Evan grinned. "Don't worry. I'm a man. I can handle this much

Talia didn't feel the need to explain herself to Henry, though. She merely smiled and said to him, "Thanks for the compliment, but I'm well aware of my own worth."Henry was stunned, realizing just how much Talia had changed. He saw genuine self-doubt in the eyes of the woman who used to be so radi

"Willow, what... what happened to you?" Talia asked, her voice shaking.Willow's face was covered in bruises. One of her eyes was so swollen that she couldn't even see out of it. She also removed her hat, revealing bloodstains on her head and several bald patches.Talia walked over to Willow, angr

Christian wrapped his arm around Yvonne to keep her from toppling over. He then looked in the direction Yvonne was pointing. Although the lighting was dim, Christian instantly recognized the pair. He saw Talia sitting with Henry, the man he had met earlier. They were sitting in the VIP seats—the v
