All Chapters of When She Turns Her Back: Chapter 871 - Chapter 880

Lying in bed, Talia tossed and turned, unable to sleep. She forced herself not to overthink, but within seconds, her thoughts drifted back to Quentin.This cycle repeated many times before Talia finally fell asleep. She had barely drifted off when her phone suddenly rang in the darkness. She opened her eyes, disoriented at first, then gradually realized someone was calling her.After waiting many times for Quentin's call without success, Talia had no expectations this time. She assumed it would just be an ordinary call."Hello." Her voice was lazy and slightly hoarse.Then Quentin's gentle voice came through. "Were you sleeping?"Talia covered her mouth as tears instantly welled up in her eyes. She forced herself not to cry and responded coolly, "Yes."Hearing this, Quentin spoke again. "Then should you get some rest?"It wasn't a statement but a question. Even so, Talia instinctively worried he would hang up immediately.So she called out his name somewhat anxiously. "Quentin.

When Christian led Nancy into the crowd, people immediately swarmed around them."Mr. Lane, Ms. York, care for a drink?""Mr. Lane, your date is gorgeous. She looks like an angel.""Ms. York, I heard you're an excellent pianist.""Ms. York, would you like a drink?""Mr. Lane, you don't mind if your girlfriend has a drink with us, do you?"People gathered around them, and various voices rose from all sides.Christian held Nancy's hand without the slightest intention of letting go. He glanced around before laughing. "Everyone, I'm terribly sorry, but my girlfriend isn't feeling well today. She can't drink."He claimed Nancy as his without hesitation, his eyes full of open affection. Seeing how well Christian treated Nancy, the people around them couldn't help but express their envy."Mr. Lane, you treat your lady so well.""Mr. Lane, you really know how to take care of your girlfriend.""Ms. York, you're so lucky to have found such a wonderful man.""If only I could be as hap

Talia caught the meaning in Christian's words. He was talking about Quentin.She yanked her hand back forcefully and shouted at Christian, "What business is it of yours?"Christian gripped her arm tightly. He pulled her toward him, then continued interrogating her in a low voice, "He whispers a few sweet nothings, and you actually believe him?"Talia glared at him viciously. "Christian, shut up."Christian stepped closer, backing Talia against the wall. Then he braced his hand against the wall.Talia was trapped between the wall and him. He leaned down, his dark eyes fixed on Talia's pale face.He stared at her for a long time without speaking. Under his gaze, Talia felt uneasy. She turned her face away.At that moment, Christian hooked his leg around the restroom door and closed it.Seeing this, Talia's heart jolted. She demanded anxiously, "Christian, what are you doing?"Christian pressed her hard against the wall. Through gritted teeth, he warned her, "Talia, don't forget

On stage, after the host and organizers finished presenting the awards, the winning bloggers linked arms with each other and descended together.Only Willow came down alone, holding her trophy in one hand and lifting the hem of her dress with the other. Even though she was by herself, she showed no hesitation. Each step she took commanded attention, graceful and captivating.Talia saw only Willow. As Willow descended the stage, she looked in Talia's direction. Their eyes met across the space, both pairs of eyes reflecting encouragement and gratitude.Seeing Willow living such a vibrant life made Talia genuinely happy for her.Soon, Willow reached Talia's side. As she took her seat, she handed Talia the trophy and leaned in to softly say, "There's a cocktail reception after this. Do you want to stay for it?"Talia didn't refuse outright. Instead, she asked Willow, "What about you? Do you want to stay?"Willow shook her head and smiled faintly. "You know I've never really liked the

There was meaning hidden in Talia's words. She wondered if Christian understood.Christian did understand. He looked down at her, holding out his coat, but he didn't reach for it for a long time.He didn't want to take it. He stubbornly tried to ignore what Talia was saying. But no matter how hard he tried to force himself, her attitude was already proof enough.She was nothing like the Talia from before.When Christian still refused to take the coat, Talia spoke again. "Christian, take it back. I don't need it anymore."Christian remained motionless. He just looked down into Talia's eyes and asked curiously, "If Quentin were the one giving you a coat, would you push him away?"Talia didn't answer the question directly. She only said, "That doesn't seem to concern you."Christian's heart sank. "Our marriage certificate is still valid. How does it not concern me?"He quickly added, "If you're with Quentin now, that's adultery."Talia laughed coldly at his words. She shook her h
