The CEO's Reclaimed Love: My Ex-Lover Is A Powerful Lawyer의 모든 챕터: 챕터 171 - 챕터 180

A few weeks passed. It was a weekend and Quinn had picked up Thalia to help out Claire and Oliver since they had their hands full with little Alex. She decided to take Thalia to the mall since there was a children’s play area and Quinn could sit at a nearby open cafe and work on her new project while Thalia played with the other kids. “Auntie Quinn, isn’t that Uncle Jake and Luci?” Thalia asked the moment they entered the play area. 'Jake is here?' Quinn asked herself in her mind. She glanced towards where Thalia was pointing and saw Jake. However, he happened to turn his head at the same time and their eyes met. ‘How long has it been since I saw him alone?’ Quinn mused, her heart skipping a beat. Since the day that she pushed Jake away, he had not tried to hit on her. Despite them meeting when visiting Claire and Oliver, the two didn’t interact often. It was almost as if Jake was avoiding Quinn. This gave the woman mixed feelings. Yes, she had told Jake to leave her and make

The previous night. Quinn had just finished reading Lucian a bedtime story when her phone buzzed, indicating she had received a message. She glanced at Lucian who was now sleeping peacefully. He was so cute with flushed squishy cheeks that matched his ginger hair. Quinn couldn't fathom how anyone would want to leave such an adorable child. 'I feel sorry for him. He will wake up tomorrow and find out his mother is gone,' she said in her mind. Sighing, she took out her phone to check her message, only for her to frown when she read it. It was from her editor who had suddenly changed his attitude towards her a few months ago. Brandon: [I heard Mr Norton's baby mama has left. Now's your chance, Quinn. If you manage to seduce him, then you will never lack anything in life. You might even become the CEO since Mr Norton bought shares in our company for you.] Quinn's eyebrows creased in confusion. It was clear this 'Mr Norton' that Brandon was talking about was Jake. However, since when

Several weeks passed. Claire's internal wound had fully healed and she could finally return to work after a long time. Her employees were excited to see her again since she hadn't been to the office for close to a year. Regardless, the firm was still running well since she still held meetings to discuss the future of the company with the directors of her firm through video conferences. It was over the weekend and Oliver had planned to take his wife to the beach house that he had built for her. Little Alex had grown and was big enough to be left with the nanny for a few hours or days. However, Claire’s motherly instincts kept making her restless. She couldn't help but miss their children seeing that they left them for a whole weekend away. Although she had pumped enough breast milk, Claire was worried Alex wouldn't like it if he noticed she was away. "Do you think the nanny can handle the kids?" She asked her husband, her stomach knotting with worry. "Yes, she will. She's train

In the past few weeks, Quinn spent a lot of time with Jake and his son. They had gotten closer as Quinn always comforted Lucian when he asked about his mother. Jake was still trying to contact Charlotte. He sent her email several messages, asking her to at least make video calls to talk to Lucian. Charlotte was yet to respond. Regardless, Jake didn’t give up. He didn’t want his son to think his mother abandoned him. A few days ago, he had noticed that Lucian wasn’t as active as he usually was. Jake thought he was just exhausted since he had enrolled him in baby class. However, during the weekend when he planned to take Lucian and Quinn out, he found the little guy sleeping in his room. Lucian was sweating and kept making noises in his sleep. Jake touched his forehead and almost pulled his hand back at the body temperature of the boy. His body was so hot, Jake was worried the boy would go into shock. He quickly picked him up and informed Quinn who offered to go with them to the

In the Doctor’s office at the paediatrics department, Quinn, Jake, Kimberly, the doctor and a few security personnel were silent as they watched the footage on the laptop screen. Lucian was left with his nanny while they tried to solve this issue. As they watched the footage, they watched as Quinn left the ward after asking a nurse to watch over Lucian. The next thing they saw was her returning with a bowl of porridge on a tray. The footage of her entering the kitchen was cut off. “Why is there only this footage? Where's the rest?” Jake questioned. “The cameras near the kitchen were undergoing maintenance. But from this footage, we can see the madam bringing the porridge to the ward herself. She could have poisoned it on the way,” one of the security guys said. Kimberly chipped in. She uttered, “That’s right! Even if we can’t see the other videos, this shows that no one else touched the boy’s porridge. Arnold, arrest this evil woman!”“Wait…” Jake remarked. He arched an eyebrow a
