Semua Bab Falling into Her Trap of Love: Bab 371 - Bab 380

After that, in a fit of rage, Xavier gunned the engine and sped off. Meanwhile, Quinn hung up and turned her attention back to the road. They were on their way back to Jipsfort. As soon as she woke up in the morning, she left without waking Xavier.Lisa and Gwendolyn were seated in the back seat, with Lorraine in the passenger seat. Having recently gone through a divorce, Lorraine was looking for a change of scenery, so she joined them on their trip back to Jipsfort."What's the matter? Who was it?" Lorraine asked inquisitively."Xavier," Quinn stated plainly."Are you and Xavier…" Lorraine trailed off. She felt uncertain about how she should proceed with the question. There was certainly more to them than met the eye.Upon seeing that Quinn showed no inclination to respond, Lorraine decided against pressing further. Although the journey should have taken slightly over five hours, Quinn ended up driving for almost six. It was mainly because she had to make several stops along

Are you alright? If you need a break, I can take over," Quinn said though she sounded tired herself."You should get some sleep. I'll wake you up when we get there," Xavier said. As the man in the relationship, he should endure it. There was no way he would allow her to drive as all he wanted was for her to rest properly. Due to the car accident, there was a huge traffic jam on the way back. As a result, Xavier could only drive patiently through it.Although she was drowsy, Quinn felt very uncomfortable due to her wet clothes.Upon seeing that it was so late and she hadn't returned home, Lisa gave her a call."I'm really fine, Mom. I'll be home soon. Please don't wait for me and go to sleep first," Quinn said. She wasn't really sure when they would be able to get off the expressway since it was common for expressways to become congested after an accident."Alright, drive safely. There's no hurry," Lisa said. She had seen the news about the car accident on the expressway. As soon

Xavier, on the other hand, was assigned to the guest room, which also had a bathtub. Yet, he didn't even bother using it. He only enjoyed engaging in intimate activities with Quinn in the bathtub, after all. If he was by himself, he preferred to take a shower instead.After a quick shower, Xavier stepped out in a bathrobe. He didn't have any clothes here, so he would have to ask Ian to bring some over later.After soaking in a warm bath, Quinn felt significantly better.After stepping out of the bathroom, Xavier called her. As soon as she picked up, she was greeted by Xavier's deep voice. He asked, "Are you done showering?" Quinn hummed in response."Why not soak a little longer?""If I soak any longer, I'm going to pass out in the bathtub."At that very moment, someone knocked on Quinn's door."It's Mom, Quinny. Can I come in?""Oh, my mother's at the door. I'll hang up now."After hanging up the phone, Quinn went to answer the door and asked, "What's the matter, Mom?""Oh

"You don't have to try so hard to win my family over, Xavier," Quinn said solemnly.She really didn't want him getting too close to her family. Given that she had no intention of marrying him, she didn't want to get Lisa and Gwendolyn's hopes up."How can you say that I'm trying to win them over? I think I get along quite well with Mrs. Gatrell Senior." Quinn fell silent.Xavier then turned to her and said, "You really don't need to overthink this, Ms. Jowell. I know you don't want anything serious, and I'm not looking for anything long-term either. I'm perfectly fine with just living in the moment. I find it quite enjoyable."Xavier decided to change his game plan. Given Quinn's guarded nature, Xavier decided to take a step back. He thought that with time, she would lower her defenses and he could pursue a relationship with her."I'm glad you can see it that way," Quinn said. She genuinely felt that this manner of getting along was the best. They could both relax and enjoy life

Shania couldn't help but wonder why Baxter couldn't even show her an ounce of compassion."Please help me, Baxter. I can't bear to lose everything I've painstakingly built."After listening to her rambling, Baxter was at a loss for words. "You should just let it go, Shania! It doesn't really matter if Xandor Group goes bankrupt. You've been too fixated for too long!"After saying that, Baxter immediately hung up the phone.At that moment, the news on the TV was full of negative reports about Xandor Group.Upon seeing that, Baxter lit a cigarette.It was his fault for hurting Lisa. He had been so determined to be with her, but ultimately, he couldn't go against his parents' wishes and married Shania instead.Despite everything, Baxter still went to see Quinn. After all, Shania was still the mother of his children. He couldn't possibly ignore her plight.As she gazed at the almost 50-year-old refined man standing before her, Quinn couldn't help but scoff and ask, "Do you really t
