Chapter 261

In the cramped and dimly lit living room, Xyla was startled when Janet entered with her bodyguards. She nearly fell off the couch, her nightgown strap slipping down her arm, making her half-reclining position look quite provocative.Janet saw her immediately and laughed. "Xyla, this is your true self, isn't it? After all, how does an unknown actress become the leading lady in a major director's film overnight without some tricks? A bit of seduction is probably necessary!"There had been rumors that Xyla secured her first leading role by sleeping with the director, though she never admitted it. Later, she became Quentin's "hidden treasure", and those rumors gradually disappeared.Xyla pulled her strap up and watched Janet warily. "What do you want?"Janet smiled. "Nothing much. I just find you an eyesore and want you gone!"She ordered the bodyguards, "Don't just stand there! Get this slut as far away as possible! Make sure she can't crawl back here!"After giving the order, Janet

'"Need a ride? Hop in!'" the driver said kindly.Ava quickly opened the back door and ushered Xyla inside before getting in herself.Xyla was draped in Ava's jacket, with the silk nightgown clinging to her body underneath. Having given Xyla her jacket, Ava was left wearing only a tank top.The minibus driver glanced at Xyla without a word. She was thin, but not unattractive.The driver took them to his village, where the houses were all made of stone, and poverty was evident everywhere.At his doorstep, he opened the back door, and Ava and Xyla got out one after the other.An elderly woman in the courtyard called out, '"Eugene, you're back!'"Eugene Linton grunted in response.'"Come in,'" he said to Xyla and Ava while sizing Xyla up.She was a bit scrawny, but she would do.At 40, Eugene still had no experience with women.His mother, Amy Scott, thought after seeing him bring two women in, '"One is so old. The other looks too frail to bear children.'" But given their circum

Thinking about her current situation made Xyla's hatred for Janet grow even stronger. One day, she would make Janet taste the life of a mountain villager.That night, Xyla went to Eugene's room.Eugene was undressing, seemingly expecting her. His narrow eyes fixated on Xyla as if stripping her with his gaze.Xyla thought he was just a poor, rural man who had never experienced a woman's touch."Remember our deal. One time, and you give me your phone," she said.Eugene nodded, thinking how smooth and tender her skin must feel, though he hoped she wouldn't break from the experience.The activities in that room continued all night.At dawn, Xyla walked out while supporting her waist. She finally understood why women who were repeatedly domestically abused stayed in their marriages. It was probably because the man was good in bed.Amy saw him come out of the room and asked, "How was it?""Fine," Eugene replied nonchalantly.Amy smiled with satisfaction. "Looks like I'll have a gra

She would make Janet and Noelle lie under Eugene one day. The thought of them being tormented by Eugene brought a satisfied smile to her lips.Eugene was convinced and handed her his phone. Unfortunately, Quentin didn't answer. He probably ignored the call since it was from an unknown number.By morning, Xyla tried again, but there was no signal. Frustrated with the outdated phone, she went to the gate, hoping for better reception.She saw Ava coming out of a house across the street followed by an old man."Come back tonight," the old man said and was unwilling to part.Xyla was furious and almost threw the phone at Ava.Teaching an old dog new tricks was impossible.On the fifth day of Noelle's hospitalization, Quentin's men finally uncovered the truth about the incident in the private room. The men who harassed Xyla were hired. The company's boss hadn't asked her to entertain clients. The mastermind behind the setup was still unknown.Quentin's handsome face darkened. Xyla ha

Noelle was reading in the study on the first floor. During her stay in the hospital, Quentin had already had her bedroom and study materials moved downstairs.Quentin came home but didn't go to her immediately. Instead, he headed to the kitchen. During these past few days in the hospital, he had watched videos and learned to cook. The videos were custom-made, featuring their mansion's chef, so he had picked up some skills.When Noelle wheeled herself over, she saw his tall figure standing at the kitchen counter getting busy. He wore a brown shirt, dark trousers, and an apron around his waist, looking both elegant and handsome. He was a man born to privilege, yet here he was, cooking for her.Noelle felt a moment of disorientation. Seeing him like this always made her feel like he loved her. But she knew better."Are you hungry? Don't worry, the food is almost ready!" Quentin said gently.He finished the last step and then brought the dish to the dining table. After setting the tab

Quentin's voice was still low as he asked, "Where are you?"Xyla was sobbing uncontrollably after finally reaching Quentin."Quint, I've been thrown into the mountains near Creekville by Janet. She was furious and threw me far away. Quint, I'm in such a sorry state. I don't have a penny, and not even a piece of clothing to cover myself. Can you send someone to bring me back? I promise I won't cause you any more trouble."Creekville was nearly a thousand miles from Dragfort. She imagined that Quentin would feel sorry for her and come to get her immediately.But instead, Quentin felt a sudden sense of relief. She wasn't kidnapped by criminals after all."In that case, just stay there," Quentin said and hung up.Xyla was stunned.Why wasn't he worried at all? Why didn't he care about her?"Quint…" She tried to speak again, wanting to say something more poignant. After all, every time she did that, he would become visibly conflicted and then treat her even better.But the call had already

There was a popular iced tea shop with many couples in line in front of them. Quentin asked, "Wait here, I'll get you a cup of iced tea. What flavor would you like?""Lemon," Noelle replied.She watched as Quentin, tall and imposing, joined the end of the queue. Dressed in expensive casual clothes, his distinguished demeanor made him stand out among the crowd.He had never done something like this for her before. It seemed like he had truly changed. Noelle began to feel a bit lost.Quentin returned with the iced tea. His handsome face glowed like the sun, and his eyes were filled with a gentle smile as he handed it to her.Noelle took a few sips and then looked up with bright eyes. "Do you want to try it?""Sure," Quentin said, surprised by her question. He had never tasted iced tea before. He always thought it was unhealthy, but now he wanted to try it.Noelle handed him the cup, and instead of taking it, Quentin bent down and took a sip from the same straw she had used. It was

Quentin's lips curved into a smile."Please save my number and send it to me," he said as he pulled out his phone and showed his number to the shop assistant.The shop assistant was astonished. As the head of Stille Industries, Quentin never asked anyone to save his number. It was always others who eagerly wanted to get his number.With his noble demeanor and extraordinary aura, he clearly wasn't an ordinary person. The shop assistant felt fortunate for her quick thinking earlier.She quickly saved his number. With a ding, the photo was sent to Quentin's phone.Quentin looked at the photo, his handsome features softened with tenderness. He forwarded the photo to Noelle and then told the assistant, "Wrap up this wedding dress."He turned to Noelle, "This is a vintage dress. Do you want to try other styles as well?"Their wedding had to be perfect, so having multiple wedding dresses wouldn't hurt.Noelle chose another dress and said, "This one."Quentin had them all wrapped up a

Liana worked part-time at a dessert shop on weekends, earning 1,500 dollars a month. She had just arranged to do food deliveries for the school cafeteria, earning two dollars per delivery. If she did 20 deliveries a day, she could make 40 dollars daily, and working five days a week would amount to around 800 dollars monthly.Her grandmother received 600 dollars per month in government subsidies, bringing their total monthly income to 2,900 dollars.Her fixed expenses each month included 600 dollars for her living expenses, 200 dollars for study materials, and 1,500 dollars for her grandmother's care at a nursing home for Alzheimer's patients, totaling 2,300 dollars.By further reducing her living expenses, she could just about manage to pay the 800 dollars.Dennis laughed upon hearing this."Miss, are you kidding me?"He looked at Liana with amusement, his eyes full of roguish charm.Liana's round face turned pale instantly."Sir, I have no parents, only a grandmother with Alzh

Chapter 270

Underneath his suit, Mark's body was heating up and tensing with desire. He looked at Lorraine with a satisfied smile. "Strike a few poses for me."Lorraine complied, striking several poses.After ten years together, she knew exactly what he liked.Janet was a proper lady who was unable to do such things, but with her, Mark found complete satisfaction.Despite the harsh words he sometimes said, and even moments when he seemed like he could kill her, he always came back after a few days.When Lorraine turned around and placed her hands on the liquor cabinet, Mark couldn't control himself and moved toward her.Just then, Mark's phone rang. Immersed in the primal moment, he frowned and released Lorraine's thin waist, walking over to the sofa to pick up his phone."Hello?" he answered with a voice filled with irritation.Because he was interrupted in the middle of things, his tone remained grim. Even if it was Janet on the other end, it didn't matter."Mark, come home early after
