After three years in a loveless marriage, Quinn remains untouched by the husband who blames her for everything. Trapped between a cruel spouse and an adoptive family that always puts their biological daughter first, she has nothing left to lose. But when she finally stops sacrificing herself, everyone who took her for granted may regret it forever.
Zeke felt a thrill. Today had been worth it just to see the cracks in Julian’s stoic facade. Clearly, Julian hadn’t known. But he quickly composed himself and looked at Maddox. “There’s a project at Dixon Group. You’ll be in charge of it.” Maddox couldn’t believe it. The first thing Julian said to him was…
“She’s married,” Julian said, his brow furrowed. “Until she’s divorced, you had better keep your mouth shut.” Zeke grinned, saying, “Don’t worry. Who would I tell? But Maddox said she’s a virgin. So, did you verify?” Julian’s head whipped around, his eyes as sharp as knives. Zeke took a step back, whispering, “What? Can’t take…
She was going to take it all back. Her parents were easy. Blood was thicker than water. When she returned, they showered her with all their love. But that wasn’t enough. Everything Quinn had belonged to Rosalie. And her efforts had paid off. She had systematically won over everyone who had ever liked Quinn. But…
Ever since she was found, with her professor parents and the friends she had stolen from Quinn, Rosalie’s life had been smooth sailing. She was good with people, and everyone listened to her. This was the first time things had spiraled out of her control. Chase wasn’t listening, and Quinn was no longer easy to…
“I will divorce you,” he said. “Just not now.” “When?” Quinn demanded. “Let me make some arrangements. Quinn, don’t tell my parents, or…” he said as his brow furrowed. “It won’t be good for either of us. You don’t want everyone to know about this, do you?” “Give me a date,” Quinn insisted. “A week?…
“Or you could go back to the scene of the crime and see if you can find any evidence.” Quinn’s eyes lit up, but the light quickly faded. It was on Julian’s yacht. How could she get on board? There was no way. As she was pondering, Veronica sat in her car, staring blankly. A…
Quinn came back to her senses, stammering, “Veronica, I didn’t know… If this makes things difficult for you, I can find another lawyer.” “No other lawyer will dare to help you,” Veronica said. “Don’t worry. I stand for what’s right, not for family. If Julian really did something so terrible, and we can get the…
Lucy was her best friend. In many ways, she was just like family. But now Julian had violated her, and she could not even report him to the police. Lucy was related to him by blood. Every time Quinn saw Lucy, she would inevitably think of Julian. That thought alone made her chest tighten. Julian…
He actually had the nerve to use those words. Even if they had not gone all the way, he had still kissed her, held her, and seen her completely naked. Just thinking about it made Quinn’s cheeks burn. “When I got there,” Julian said, “Maddox was in the middle of trying to take your clothes…
“Chase is a good man,” Victor said. “But Quinn is wonderful too.” Elaine slammed her fork down on the table. “Are you trying to make me angry on purpose?” Victor quickly raised his hands in surrender. “Alright, alright, I’ll drop it.
