Chapter 853

Deerstream
Yvonne was weak, her mind hazy and unfocused. She couldn't care less if the person in front of her was someone she liked or disliked.

She had never once called Garrett "uncle" . But that night, she did.

But Garrett didn't soften at the sound of it. He didn't even turn around.

Talia looked at Yvonne. That small child was slumped against Emma. Her heart ached at the sight of it. She wanted to hold her, but she was afraid Yvonne might reject her, so she stayed where she was.

But Yvonne calling

  • When She Turns Her Back   Chapter 1076

    Talia kept it simple. "It's 9:00 pm. If I don't go back soon, Garrett really will call the police."Quentin didn't seem the least bit concerned. "And? Are you agreeing to what I asked or not?"She had no leverage left, so she gave in. "Fine. I agree."Quentin scowled at her. "That was pretty half-hearted."Talia sighed. "You're such a child. You got what you wanted, and you're still not satisfied."She was barely limping along. He knew her leg was still hurting, so he bent down and scooped her up in one smooth motion. A faint smile tugged at his mouth as he looked down at her. "Pretty sure you're the one who got what she wanted."Heat flooded her face instantly.She always caught his meaning right away, and he wasn't wrong. She had absolutely nothing to complain about on that front.But she couldn't stop her mind from wandering. Was the reason he was so impressive simply... his experience? Had he been with enough women to get that good?She'd never let herself think about it b

  • When She Turns Her Back   Chapter 1075

    Talia threw herself into Quentin's arms, crying. "Quentin, I'm scared."His hand moved gently up and down her back as guilt laced through his voice. "I'm sorry. I'll leave the light on for you from now on."She leaned against his shoulder and cried for a while before she gradually calmed down. Quentin held her the entire time, never once stopping the steady rhythm of his hand on her back.Where she couldn't see, his other hand was slowly regaining feeling. She'd been sleeping on it for the past three hours, and he hadn't had the heart to wake her, so he'd just let it go numb.After a while, Talia pulled back from his chest and looked up at him. She asked, "How late is it?"Quentin glanced at his phone and turned back to her. "Almost 9:00 pm."Talia shot upright in bed, panic flooding her face. "Quentin, I really need to go home."It had been almost 24 hours since she'd left last night. If she didn't get back home soon, Garrett was genuinely going to file a missing person's repor

  • When She Turns Her Back   Chapter 1074

    Talia lay beneath Quentin with her eyes open, but all she could see was the line of his jaw. She could feel his body burn against hers like it was about to combust.Her own breathing and heartbeat were just as unsteady.She didn't even have time to think about his question before her body answered for her. She didn't say a single word. She simply lifted herself slightly and pressed her lips to his throat.That one gesture hit harder than any verbal agreement ever could have.Quentin stopped holding back. He gripped her waist, pulled her clothes away, and stripped himself bare.On the white sheets, they picked up right where last night had left off.From 3:00 to 5:00 pm, a full two hours passed, and by the time they were done, the sky outside the bedroom window had already started to darken again.Talia lay flat on her back while Quentin carefully tucked the covers around her. He cleaned himself up and headed for the bathroom.About ten minutes later, he came back out in a robe,

  • When She Turns Her Back   Chapter 1073

    While Talia was spiraling through worst-case scenarios, Quentin lifted a spoonful of soup to her lips.His voice was gentle and coaxing, the same way one might speak to a child. "Open up."Talia snapped out of it and looked up at him, and before she could stop it, the tangled images from last night came flooding back.The memory of how reckless she'd been turned her face red all over again. Quentin caught it and smiled, a quiet sense of triumph filling his chest.He'd won her over.Talia parted her lips and let him feed her. He was attentive to every small detail, and it put her more at ease than she expected.When he'd first entered her last night, her mind had actually been racing. He had been so good to her, but a part of her wondered if it was all just part of the chase.After all, men always wanted what they couldn't have. She happened to be the one thing Quentin had never been able to get—not because she was anything extraordinary, but simply because she'd been out of reac

    The moment Quentin walked in, he caught Talia scrambling to pull the covers up, clearly trying to hide something.He set the food down on the nightstand and raised an eyebrow. "What are you hiding?"Talia sat in the middle of the bed with the blanket pulled all the way up to her chin, covering every inch of her."Nothing." Her face was red and she wouldn't look at him. She was obviously lying.Quentin took a seat on the edge of the bed. For someone who'd been up half the night, he looked completely unbothered. He reached for the blanket, grinning. "Let me see."Talia shook her head and said, "No. You can't look."His smile deepened. "Is there a single part of you I haven't already seen?"She gripped the covers tight, but one easy tug from him and they were gone.That was when he realized that she'd been trying to get dressed. Her bra was only halfway on, draped loosely over her without actually covering anything.The sight of it sent a jolt through his chest. After last night,

    Quentin's words did nothing to calm Talia down. She had gone willingly last night, yes, but she knew that Garrett would be furious if he found out.In hindsight, she shouldn't have been so impulsive.Quentin watched the parade of emotions cross her face and knew exactly where her mind had gone. He tilted her chin up gently, kissed her once, and smiled. "Don't worry. I've got you."Despite her nerves, those words took some of the edge off. After being quiet for a moment, she said, "Take me home later."Quentin raised an eyebrow, a playful glint in his eye. "Later?"She swatted his chest. "I want to take a shower. What are you thinking?"He laughed. "Same thing you are. What are you thinking?"Refusing to look at him, she gave him a light push. "Then get up. I'm going to shower."Quentin caught her wrist and pressed her hand flat against his toned stomach, smiling. "Relax. I already cleaned you up last night. Every single inch of you."Talia's face practically caught fire. "You.

    Talia lifted her face and forced herself to meet Christian's gaze. She questioned him, "Christian, when exactly do you plan to tell Franklin that we're about to get divorced?"Christian spoke with a pleading edge in his voice. "Grandpa's health doesn't look good right now, so at least not now."Ta
