All Chapters of When She Turns Her Back: Chapter 441 - Chapter 450

Garrett's entire body froze as the truth sank in.After regaining his composure, he tried to bypass Willow and head toward her ward."I'm going to see her," he said.But Willow blocked his way. Her voice was almost pleading as she said, "Garrett, Talia hasn't slept for two days straight. She finally just fell asleep. Please don't disturb her. If she wakes up, she'll be up all night again."Garrett's steps faltered at that. He wanted to see Talia but felt a deep sympathy for her.Although Willow's story was full of holes, Garrett wasn't willing to risk it. What if it were true?If his rashness woke her up again after she'd finally rested, he would feel even more guilty.Noticing Garrett's resolve soften, Willow quickly added, "The doctor said Talia needs plenty of rest to recover."With his head down, Garrett gave a low grunt of agreement and added, "Let her rest, then."Paige, still worried, spoke up instinctively. "I'll just peek by her door. Just a quick look."As she said

Talia turned her face away, refusing to look at Quentin. She said coldly, "I don't owe you an explanation, and you don't need to know everything about me."Although her words were harsh, she was already crying inside.Refusing to accept her answer, Quentin reached out to grab her arm. But the moment his hand brushed against her, she frowned as if she were suffering unbearable discomfort.Frantic now, Quentin grabbed Talia's hand. As he looked down at the dark bruises on her arm, his eyes instantly reddened.All his anger melted away in that moment, replaced by a wave of agonizing heartache.Tears fell from Quentin's eyes as he held her hand.Talia wanted to pull her hand back, but seeing Quentin cry made her chest tighten. "You…"Quentin held her hand softly and said, "Go to sleep. I'll be here with you."Talia didn't reply, only fixed her gaze on his face.Although he tried hard to hide his tears, she saw them anyway. Once again, she saw the heartache and concern reflected in

Before Shayla could react, Quentin's expression darkened instantly. His hand found the wound on Shayla's face. He pressed down slowly, then suddenly squeezed hard.Quentin used so much force that his entire body tensed along with the pressure.At that moment, Shayla cried out in pain and struggled fiercely to break free.But Quentin's other hand easily pinned her shoulder down without loosening his grip on the wound.Shayla's face trembled in agony, and tears streamed uncontrollably from her eyes.Quentin showed no mercy. Only when he saw fresh blood stain her cheek again did he lower his voice and ask sharply, "Does it hurt now?"Shayla's entire body contorted and thrashed in agony, but with Quentin holding her down, she couldn't break free.Trembling, she sobbed, "It hurts… It hurts."Sweat, blood, and tears mixed on her battered face beneath the bandages. Her wide, terrified eyes were fixed on Quentin.As he leaned in, veins bulged on his furious face. His voice was deathly

When Talia saw that it was Margaret, she abandoned any thought of fleeing. Margaret carried a small container in her hand. As she approached, she tossed it carelessly onto the nightstand."Chris was worried you'd starve to death alone, so he sent me to check on you," she said without any warmth.Talia's expression turned cold. "I don't need your fake concern."Margaret scoffed. "You think I wanted to come? I could be home watching TV, tending to my garden, or feeding my fish. That would be a hell of a lot more pleasant than looking at a stray dog like you."The comment made Talia laugh despite herself. "Then you can leave."The moment Talia told her to leave, Margaret erupted. "Talia, you've really gotten bold, haven't you? You dare speak to me like that? Do you actually think you're some heiress worthy of the Lane family's status?"She continued her tirade. "Why don't you take a good look at yourself? What part of you resembles a proper young lady? You should be thanking your lu

Quentin's words left Talia frozen in shock. She looked down at him and saw nothing but genuine sincerity in his eyes. For a brief moment, she wavered again.She thought perhaps she really could leave with him and live the life she wanted. But the absurd notion lasted only a few seconds.Whatever kindness Quentin showed her, wasn't there always something in it for him?She just hadn't called out his calculations yet. She looked at him, and after a long pause, finally spoke. "Quentin, my entire family is in Jarrowind. I don't think I could ever leave here."Her answer didn't surprise him in the least. He continued feeding her.Talia wanted to say that she could do it herself. Quentin must have sensed her thoughts because he said, "Let me."Seeing his insistence, Talia let him have his way.Quentin fed her another spoonful of oatmeal, then said, "Not leaving is fine. I already have a place by your side anyway."Talia froze, looking at Quentin with confusion. "What?"Quentin met h
