The car soon pulled into the restaurant's parking lot.

The moment they arrived, Talia spotted Christian's car. It had just parked as well, but Christian was already unfastening his seatbelt and climbing out. He walked around to the passenger side, opened the door, ducked his head to shield Nancy from the car roof, and helped her out, taking her hand.

    Paige's smile deepened, and she stepped aside. "Go on in. She's waiting for you."Quentin pocketed his phone and agreed without hesitation. "Alright."He pushed open the sliding door and entered the bedroom.When Quentin came in, Garrett cleared his throat. "Dad, Mom, Maeve and Evan are downstairs. Let's go check on them."Since Talia wanted to speak with Quentin alone, everyone cooperatively left the bedroom.Quentin sat on the edge of the bed. He looked down at Talia and took her cold hand in his.Before Quentin could say anything, Talia spoke first. "I'm sorry. I broke my promise tonight."Quentin's thumb traced gentle circles on the back of Talia's hand. He shook his head gently. "It doesn't matter. That's not important."Talia didn't have the strength to pull her hand back, so she let Quentin hold it. After a brief silence, she thanked him. "Thank you for tonight."Quentin's thumb stopped tracing her hand abruptly. He looked at Talia, his voice full of guilt as he said, "

    After learning that Talia had disappeared, the Stewarts waited anxiously at the entrance.When they saw a car approaching, hope surged through them. Once the car stopped at the Stewart residence, everyone rushed down the steps and crowded around it.Quentin got out, walked around to the passenger side, and lifted Talia into his arms.Paige and Garrett stepped forward, their voices full of concern. "Mr. Henderson, is Talia all right?"Quentin's expression was grim. He carried Talia toward the house with quick steps. "Don't worry. She's okay."Talia was so weak that she could barely lift her head from Quentin's shoulder.Quentin carried her through the entrance and up to the second floor. He easily made his way to Talia's bedroom and lay her on the bed before pulling the covers over her.The Stewarts followed close behind. When they saw how weak Talia looked, no one spoke.Quentin knew they were worried. He stood and quietly said, "She's alright, but she hasn't eaten the whole da

    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
