Chapter 361

Author: Deerstream
Hearing Quentin say that made Talia's heart skip a beat.

She always felt that Quentin's kindness toward her was motivated by some underlying scheme, yet the genuine emotions he often revealed always left her feeling utterly bewildered.

Was someone really capable of doing this much for another person just for personal gain?

Talia couldn't help wondering whether Quentin was putting on an act or if he really meant every single word. She couldn't figure out what was real and what wasn't, so she stopped trying.

Thinking back on what Quentin said, she replied, "There's no point in caring about Christian."

Her voice stayed calm. Quentin could tell that she wasn't saying it out of anger.

Noticing that she genuinely meant it, he added, "It's never too late to start over. There's nothing wrong with trying different men."

Talia leaned against the headboard. She felt weak all over, and his words made her frown. She looked at him and asked with a hint of amusement, "I'm already like this, an

    In the ward, Talia leaned back against the headboard.Lucas had laid out the things he brought on the edge of the bed. After showing them all, he eagerly looked at Talia, waiting for her decision.Seeing his excited expression, Talia didn't have the heart to dampen his spirits. After some serious thought, she pointed to the cake and said, "I'll have the cake."Lucas quickly picked up the cake and handed it to her."Talia, since you love cake so much, you must be a real sweetheart yourself," he teased, his smile gentle.Quentin, who was sitting beside Talia, slowly peeled an orange, as if afraid of tearing the skin.Although his focus was on the fruit, his eyes kept drifting toward Talia.Since last night, he had sensed something amiss with her. However, she had always been cold toward him, so he couldn't quite figure out what was wrong.After Lucas arrived, Talia was smiling, yet Quentin couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.But then again, Talia wasn't very famil

    Emma caught on to Christian's unspoken meaning and gently persuaded him, "Mr. Lane, if you really care about Mrs. Lane, you should call her yourself."Christian turned his face away. His voice dropped to a somber tone as he replied, "I don't care about her, but she's still Yvonne's mother. I wouldn't want anything to happen to her."Emma sighed deeply. "Mr. Lane, Mrs. Lane is a good person. You shouldn't let her slip away. As you said, she's Ms. Yvonne's mother. Only a mother can truly care for her child. Please don't regret it, or so will Ms. Yvonne."Christian remained silent for a while. He thought about how they had already signed the divorce papers and were only about 20 days away from receiving their official divorce certificate. Finally, he spoke up. "There are no feelings between us."Emma quickly responded, "But you still have Ms. Yvonne."Christian went quiet again. After a moment, he took the food container from Emma's hands and said, "I'll feed Yvonne."When he entere

    After saying that, Talia turned her back to Quentin.He froze for a moment, suddenly at a loss for what to do.Everything had been fine just moments ago.A restless feeling gnawed at him. As he sat by the bed, he asked, "Is something wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"Talia didn't turn around, but she answered, "No, I'm just tired."Her tone was as cold as it had been when they first met.Quentin didn't say anything more, but his eyes stayed fixed on her. He stubbornly stared at the back of her head, as if he were trying to see through her, but he couldn't figure her out.He wondered if she was upset over Christian again.Just as that thought crossed his mind, Talia suddenly turned back around. The light in the room cast a dim glow, making her expression faint and shadowed.She looked at Quentin for a moment before saying, "You smell like perfume."There was no scent at all, but she brought it up on purpose, hoping that he would admit to being with Nancy.Quentin, caught off gu

    Quentin and Nancy were so close that they could almost touch each other.Her heart pounded wildly, and her cheeks flushed bright red.Seeing her like that, Quentin tilted his head to look at her and bluntly asked, "So, are you really a virgin?"There was a playful glint in his eyes, yet beneath it lurked something darker.Nancy met his gaze and nodded shyly. "Yes."Quentin suddenly burst out laughing.Nancy felt both nervous and uncertain when she saw him laughing like that.A moment later, the smile vanished from his face. He looked at her and asked, "Since you're still a virgin, why don't we set a date?"His blunt words made Nancy's face turn even redder. She played innocent and asked, "A date? What exactly do you want to do on that date, Mr. Henderson?"Seeing her act so clueless sparked a flash of disgust in Quentin's mind, but he kept it carefully hidden.Quentin kept smiling, holding his pose as he edged closer. Just as his lips neared her cheek, he paused.With a slow

    Talia didn't bother correcting Quentin. She just said, "You can go."Before leaving, Quentin sneaked a quick kiss on her forehead when she wasn't paying attention. "You get some rest. I'll be back soon."With that, he left the ward.But once Quentin was gone, Talia found that she couldn't sleep at all. Instead, she felt more awake than ever.Her mind kept replaying Quentin's kindness over the past two days and the words he had said.She had always thought that Quentin had something to gain from her, but even now, she had no idea what value she held for him.Yet, he was willing to humble himself before her, even washing her feet.Although it was just a simple gesture, the fact that it came from Quentin made all the difference.Talia was moved.What if Quentin was genuinely being good to her? Thinking about it only made sleep harder to come by.Feeling suffocated in the room, she decided to go out for some fresh air.She wandered down the hall and ended up at the far end witho

    Quentin stood at the door and heard the lock click shut. He smiled to himself. It was a smile full of happiness.Soon, the sound of running water came from the bathroom.Worried that Talia might feel cold, Quentin held a coat and waited by the door.About half an hour later, Talia finally emerged from the bathroom. Her hair was wrapped in a towel, and she wore a fluffy pajama set.Winter had arrived, and the nights were chilly.Seeing her come out, Quentin hurried forward and wrapped the coat around her before asking, "Sweetie, are you cold?"Talia shook her head and gently replied, "I'm not."Seeing the smile in her eyes, Quentin felt a surge of happiness himself.He helped her sit on the edge of the bed and said, "I'll get the hair dryer and dry your hair."Talia was about to refuse, but before she could speak, Quentin was already fetching the dryer.He busied himself around the room, showing none of the arrogance expected from a rich heir. He seemed to be treating Talia li
