Everyone who heard everything Quin turned to look at him with shock in their eyes, and it wasn’t long before they started to make side comments while still stealing glances at Quin.“Is he truly the boss? How is that possible?”“How come the Manager doesn’t know who his boss is?” “Maybe he is truly the boss. Look at him, he looks very presentable.” The comments continued to pour in while Declan struggled to catch his breath.While his legs dangled in the air, he pleaded with his eyes, hoping that Quin was going to free him.“I am begging you, Sir! I don’t want to die!” His eyes had turned red, and tears had already started to fall from his eyes. “Quin! You are going to kill him!” Nero moved close to Quin and gently touched him on his shoulders. “Please, let him go.” He pleaded, and Quin nodded. He let go of the pesky manager who fell on the hard floor amidst loud gasps and grunts, panting while he crawled away. “What you said, is it true?” Nero asked with a whisper, feeling a bit

The entire hall was thrown into a state of confusion. Since the restaurant had been purchased from the first owner and renovated, no one could be able to identify who the new owner was until that moment. However, some of the customers were able to recognize Quin after looking at him for a while.“That’s Doctor Quin!” Miss Smith said after scrolling through her phone for a while. “Look at this!” She showed a picture of Quin to her friends, getting rid of their doubts. “He is the President of Lincoln Enterprises. He is also a very talented healer, there is no kind of sickness he isn’t able to heal.”She was smitten both by Quin’s cuteness and his appearance. “I want him!” She said with a coy smile on her face, and then she began to adjust her dress.She was Olivia Smith, the only child of a multi-millionaire who was a business tycoon. Her father owned one of the biggest companies in the City, and she could easily get whatever she wanted just by making a phone call. Meanwhile, Declan

While Quin drove the car with Nero seated next to him, there was silence, but the latter was still thinking about everything Quin said to him inside the restaurant. Even though he wasn’t sure of where they were going, he had learned to trust Quin after what he saw. “Did you mean what you said back there?” He asked, turning to face Quin who nodded to affirm his words. “I was being very serious about the things I said, Nero. No jokes.” “But why me? You could have just easily picked any other person.” Nero just wanted to satisfy his curiosity because everything happened so fast that he couldn’t understand it.Quin chuckled softly. “I don’t think I could have seen any other person more capable than you, Nero. We have been friends for a very long time, and I am convinced that I can trust you with this. I am sure fate has a way of aligning things in our favor.” Quin was done talking, but Nero couldn’t stop looking at him with his eyes wide open and his brows arched. “Thank you so muc

As soon as Nero heard the name of Melinda’s new husband, he turned to him at once and Melinda chuckled loudly.“I am sure the name sounds familiar, Nero. He is the CEO of Dion Enterprises, one of the biggest companies in this City. He also owns several cars and lots of houses in the City, something that you can never be able to boast of.” Melinda rubbed her hands on Jason’s chest, and he chuckled softly. Even though Nero was insulted, he knew that Melinda was right. Jason was the direct opposite of him, and he couldn’t even deny it.The shoes and wristwatches he saw him putting on were almost as expensive as those he saw Quin wearing. Suddenly, the clothes and shoes he was holding with both hands began to feel too heavy for him to carry. He dropped them slowly and cleared his throat.“I don’t want any trouble, Melinda. I just want to be done with what I came here to do and be on my way.” Nero made another attempt to walk away but Melinda got in the way and stood firm like a tree. T

Nero was convinced that he was going to be in a lot of trouble the moment he saw the storekeeper letting go of the trolley and walking away. She tucked the cash Melina gave to her into her skirt and quickened her steps. When the two customers there saw what was about to happen, they gradually started to move to other sections of the store, leaving Nero to his fate. “Let’s see if anyone is going to save you now, loser!” Jason said with a smirk on his face, then he grabbed the items Nero was holding and tossed them on the ground.Then he kicked one of the shoes so far away that Nero lost sight of it. When he tried to go and pick it up, Jack grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him back, reaping the shirt apart in the process. “What a pity!” Melinda mocked. “Your clothes are weak just like you!” Her voice reeked of so much contempt while she rolled her eyes at Nero and clicked her tongue. “I don’t want any trouble from you guys. Please let me go.” Nero pleaded, trying as much as he

Quin recognized the Manager as soon as he saw him. “Is that not the manager you just mentioned?” He asked, pointing at the middle-aged man in a shiny black suit. The storekeeper could no longer speak, seeing that she could no longer find any better lies to tell. “I wonder what you are up to,” Quin said with a smirk on his face before he turned to look at the Manager who was a few meters close to him.“What a pleasant, Mr. Quin!” The manager was very happy to see Quin, extending his hand for a handshake. “I didn’t know that you were coming to our store, I would have made special arrangements for the best outfits we have in this store.” He managed, and then he slowly pulled his hand away from the handshake. “I am only here with a friend,” Quin said calmly, struggling to hold onto the smile on his face.“It doesn’t matter, Mr. Quin. I could still make the arrangement, I promise that it won’t take a lot of time. Just say the word.” The Manager insisted, showcasing readiness to do whate

At that moment, the Manager was confused, exchanging glances between Quin and the pesky couple. He didn’t know what to say.“Didn’t you hear me?! I want you to send this man out of here!” Jason insisted that he was going to get what he wanted no matter what.. “I am sure you don’t want people thinking that you allow thieves to roam around this store freely. Your business could crash!” The Manager thought about what Jason said, but then Quin was still there, and he was wondering why the Doctor had been silent for a very long time. “I think we need to leave, Quin. I don’t want any trouble.” Nero whispered, but Quin frowned at him with his eyes glaring into his.“Is this how you will keep on letting people treat you like trash?” Quin scolded him, moving closer while he continued with a loud whisper.“Don’t be a weakling, Nero. Stand up for yourself and act like the friend I used to know.” Nero nodded in agreement, and then Quin asked him in a loud tone. “Do I have your permission to de

The two guards holding onto Jason didn’t waste any time bringing him to his knees, causing Melissa to gasp.“You can’t do that to him! That’s my husband!” She yelled at Quin, but the deed had already been done. “He is all yours, Nero,” Quin said to his friend, and then he moved out of the way, making sure that Jason was kneeling in front of his friend.“Do whatever you want with him. If you decide that you want him dead, then the choice is yours.” Quin added, and Nero nodded in response. Melissa could no longer act like she was in charge. It was obvious that things were not going the way she thought they would go.“Nero? You can’t touch my husband! You can’t!” She yelled at Nero when she saw that he was getting close to her husband.From the look of things, Nero didn’t have any good intentions for the men on his knees.As soon as he stood about a meter in front of him, he landed two heavy slaps on Jason’s cheeks, causing him to stagger. “That’s for accusing me of being a thief!” Ne

Quin arrived at his mansion, one of the most beautiful edifices that Nero had ever seen.He got out of the car, but Nero remained inside, wondering where they were.“Where are we? Whose house is this?” Nero was filled with both admiration and curiosity while he returned his gaze to Quin. “This is my mansion, Nero,” Quin said casually, one of the things that always made his friend wonder if he was trying to play pranks on him.“Are you serious about this, Quin? This house belongs to you?” He expected to get an answer from Quin, but the nod was enough for him.“I can’t believe this!” Nero finally got down from the car and went after Quin who was almost at the doorstep. Eventually, they got in one after the other, and Quin gestured to Nero to take a seat in the living room.“You said you wanted me to meet someone, Quin,” Nero said a few minutes after he was settled, and Quin nodded in response. “I will be right back.” He left and returned a few minutes later with his uncle, Edmund wh

The man didn’t want to talk at first, but seeing that Quin was ready to slit his throat, he decided to get rid of his silence.“Mr. Darwin sent me.” He said, but it was only Viola who knew who that was.From the look on her face, everyone could tell that she was flustered at the mention of the name, but they expected her to say something.“Who is he?” Lady Bianca decided to ask the question that was on the lips of everyone. Viola took a deep breath. “I used to work for him…” She said, but everyone wanted to hear more. “Why would he want to kill you?” Quin asked, adjusting himself without taking his eyes off Viola.She took a deep breath. “Mr. Darwin saw me in his office one night, and I wasn’t supposed to be there.” She paused for a few seconds, indicating that what she was about to say was too heavy for her mouth.“I saw him strangling someone, and when he discovered that I had seen him, he sent his men after me. But I managed to escape, and I have been on the run ever since then.”
