Semua Bab Falling into Her Trap of Love: Bab 11 - Bab 20

"What are you trying to do, Quinn? You should know there are surveillance cameras here!" Simon wanted to pull Quinn away once he saw what was happening. Ultimately, Kimberly was his fiancée, so he couldn't possibly let Quinn mess with her.To his surprise, Xavier's massive hand blocked him from getting close.He wanted to shove Xavier's hand away, but Xavier held his shoulder with an iron grip. Simon felt like his collarbone might almost get crushed into dust just then."Where do you think you're going? We should let the women handle their affairs. Your opponent is me," said Xavier. Then, he turned to Quinn and said nonchalantly, "Do whatever you want, Quinny. You've got me to back you up!""Apologize!" Quinn barked at Kimberly.Insulting Lisa was like stabbing Quinn's sore spot. Quinn refused to let anyone smear her mother's name in the slightest.Kimberly remained silent and resisted. However, the tightness around her neck wasn't a pleasant sensation. Quinn was a psychop

Araminta hadn't thought that Quinn would show up at the office. After all, Maurice had hired around a dozen professional bodyguards for today.The shareholders who had just professed their loyalty to Araminta tensed in embarrassment at once.Quinn walked to Araminta's side while everyone watched on with scrutiny. "Move," Quinn snarled without sparing a glance at Araminta. She firmly felt that not just anyone could sit on the seat at the head of the conference table.All the color drained from Araminta's face. She had sat on the main chair for five years and contributed a lot to the development of Four Seasons Incorporated. Did she really have to give up her seat now that Quinn was back?Quinn frowned when Araminta didn't move. The corners of her eyes tauntingly creased as she wondered if all mistresses were as shameless as Araminta these days."We're in the office, Quinn. Please don't cause a scene." Araminta put on an unfazed, benevolent front."Am I causing a scene? I'm mer

Maurice had come to settle the score with Quinn. Much to his dismay, he ended up with a mouthful of exhaust fumes from Xavier's Cullinan. It angered him so much that he yelled several curses at the sky."Alright, that's enough. It's not like she can hear you," Araminta uttered in exasperation.She had hinted at Maurice not to be reckless during the shareholders' meeting. Yet, he had acted like all his common sense had been thrown out the window.Once Maurice saw that Araminta wasn't in a good mood, he couldn't care less that they were out on the road in public. He hugged and kissed her at once. "Don't be upset. You can rest assured. Everyone in the company is loyal to me, and I can handle the project without a doubt. Besides, don't I have you by my side?""But Quinn still owns 36% of the company's shares!" That was the one thing that greatly bothered Araminta. She felt they would have more security if they could get those shares."Calm down. I'll definitely find a way to make he

Xavier didn't get mad. He and Quinn had a long way to go, and he would make her slowly get used to him.Edgar led them inside. A dozen men were dangling in the air. They had already been there for a day. From the moment the men had been brought there, Edgar and the others hadn't said a word. Their future was unknown, and it was precisely that uncertainty that made everything seem scarier."It's you!" Tom Hansen, the leader of the other 11 men, finally reacted to seeing Quinn.She smirked at him, making a chill run down his spine. She was far too terrifying—he and his men didn't stand a chance against her despite their strength in numbers.It was as if she were a devil from hell. She didn't seem to fear death at all. Because of that, her actions scared them.Quinn picked up a leather whip. "Are you guys going to talk, or should I make you talk?""What are you trying to do? You can't imprison and torture us like this! It's illegal!" Tom yelled. At his voice, the 11 others woke up

If Quinn were to turn down Xavier's invitation for dinner, he wouldn't stop pestering her. So, she gave in to him. They went to a popular restaurant in Jipsfort, Riverview Restaurant. The manager, John Waylon, attended to them in person.Xavier pulled out Quinn's seat for her and only took his seat across from her after that. Just then, her phone rang."Where are you, Quinny? I'll head to where you are. Let's have dinner together.""Okay. I'll send you the location." Quinn hung up and sent Nadia her location. Then, she said flippantly, "A friend of mine is coming over. I'm sure you wouldn't mind, Mr. Patterson."She didn't really care if he minded. He could leave if he didn't like it.Xavier poured her a glass of wine and smiled. "Any friend of yours is a friend of mine, too."Quinn didn't respond to that. She turned to look out at the fantastic view of the river. Xavier admired her gorgeous side profile while she looked at the scenery. To him, she was the best scenery he wou
