Quinn gave Xavier a look."I can help you wash up." He volunteered."No need, Xavier. Your back can't get wet. Just use a towel to wipe your body." Quinn got out of bed.She couldn't sleep if she didn't shower after their intimate moment.As Quinn entered the bathroom, Xavier's lips curved into a smile.He had been particularly demanding tonight. After the explosion, he wanted to feel her presence in this way. She was like a drug—once he was hooked, he couldn't escape.It seemed he was genuinely caught up in her.Seeing her distressed made him feel pain, and once they were in bed, he just wanted to consume her.Quinn took a quick shower and emerged with her hair half-dried, wearing one of Xavier's black shirts. The sight of her in the shirt was intensely tempting."Why are you still here?" Wasn't he tired?"I just wanted to stay with you for a while."Quinn ignored him and slipped under the covers."Quinny, can I sleep with you?" He did mean just sleeping. He wouldn't make

"Don't you hear me, Ms. Lewitt? Kane Group's bidding conference is only a couple of days away. We finally secured a spot. Do you want to give up now?" Araminta was very displeased with Luna's silence."The effort was put in by Ms. Jowell and us and has nothing to do with you." Ryan couldn't hold back any longer. How could anyone be so shameless?At first, no one believed in them. The only thing they wanted was to drive Quinn out of Four Seasons Incorporated.Now that she had finally made progress with the project, they were trying to take it away from her.Araminta shot Ryan a warning look. With Quinn missing, who gave him the audacity to speak to her like this?"What? Did I say something wrong? How can you be so shameless, trying to take credit for someone else's work?"Ryan was deeply grateful to Quinn. If something had really happened to her, there would be no reason for him to stay on the project."Ryan, wait for me outside," Luna said. She saw that Araminta was getting angr

Quinn came downstairs after changing and, as expected, saw Xavier waiting by the staircase. He had prepared working attire for her today.Wearing a black shirt and suit pants, Quinn tucked the shirt into her trousers. Even so, her waist still looked slender and delicate."I made breakfast. Give it a try."He knew she hated drinking those traditional medicines. They were hard to swallow for her. So, he learned how to make medicinal cuisine, thinking it might be more acceptable to her.Quinn followed him to the dining table. Seeing the breakfast laid out, she raised an eyebrow."Did you make all this?""Yes. Don’t worry! I’ll get better at it over time." This was just the beginning.She was speechless.Xavier pulled out a chair for her. She sat down, and he placed a bowl of oatmeal in front of her."Have some oatmeal. I made it, but the pastries were delivered."He was smart, but cooking was something that had to be learned gradually. Especially since she was quite picky. If th

Araminta was startled. Quinn had just kicked the leg of the chair clean off. If she had aimed that kick at her, would her leg be broken instead?Not wanting to confront Quinn directly, Araminta quietly tried to slip out. But Quinn wasn’t about to let her go that easily. She stretched out her leg and blocked Araminta's path."Has the problem been solved? Are you just going to leave? Are you this irresponsible?"Araminta glared at her. "Quinn, no matter what, I’m still your stepmother, your elder. Are you going to be so disrespectful to me?""Stepmother? I never acknowledged you as such! As for being disrespectful, that's just how I am."With that, Quinn slapped Araminta hard across the face. It was a fierce, forceful blow that left Araminta in shock. She couldn’t believe Quinn had the nerve to hit her. Before she could react, Quinn landed another slap, just as hard.Standing nearby, Luna felt a rush of satisfaction. Quinn never failed to impress her."Enough, Quinn, I…"Araminta

Victor handed the phone back to Quinn. She glanced at the screen before putting it to her ear."Hello."Quinn’s voice was as cold and indifferent as ever.Xavier felt like he was about to explode."Who are you with?" Xavier struggled to control his temper.Quinn frowned. Wasn't he overstepping?"Xavier, who I’m with is my business. Do you need something? If not, I’m hanging up."Xavier felt like he was suffering from internal injuries."Where are you? I’m coming to see you." Xavier was determined to find out who the man with her was."I’m busy. There's no need to come." Quinn finished speaking and hung up.She didn’t like Xavier’s questioning tone. After all, they were just friends with benefits. There was no need for him to get so involved.Quinn switched her phone to silent mode and tossed it aside."Who was that? Your boyfriend?" Victor asked, testing the waters."Weren’t you hungry? Let’s eat. And from now on, don’t touch my phone. I don’t like it."She was very prote
