Screams.
"Pervert!" Emily grappled to the bed sheet, stumping out from the bed with a face widened with shock. "Did you dare to touch me last night?" She growled at the young man lying on the bed. "Wow, what a pretty way of saying good morning and thank you for last night!" Quinn face ran cold. "Did you?" Emily's brows twitched. "Why should I? There's nothing to amuse me with." Emily bubbled with rage. She was the gem of the Eastside city and also the heiress of the fastest-rising company in the city. Men would lurk after her like ants to sugar from afar, it would be a dying wish to even lay on the same bed with her. Yet, some farm-looking boy just discarded her like a heap load of garbage. It was difficult to point out what she was angry at, his comment or the fact that she could sense that she had been taken advantage of. "You're not only a pervert but also irresponsible?" Her eyes popped up. "Getting drunk and ending up in a room that isn't yours? A well thought out definition of responsible." A bitter sensation rose through Emily's throat. Looking around the room, only to realize that she had ended up somewhere else in her drunken state. Her body stiffened. Her hands tightened. 'If Grandpa had not announced to me that I had been match maked with some trash from only God knows where, I would never have ended up in this situation. It's all the fault of that fool?' She thought in rising rage. "That still does not give you the right to touch me. I'm going to make sure that you never look at another woman's way again." "Sure. Go ahead." Quinin remained unfazed by her words. He didn't say any further because he wasn't given the slightest chance to plead his case. His non-chanlance caused Emily's rage and embarrassment to surge through her throat. Trying to get back at him would get the words about their encounter out and letting him go scout-free was going to be a dint on her ego. She racked her brain. She might never see him again. But if the news slipped through the four walls of this place, it was going to make a headline. Her phone rang, saving her from the embarrassment and the awkwardness. "We are just going to pretend like this never happened between us!" She flashed, stomping her foot off from the room. Quinn shook his head. The first lady that he gets to meet in this town turns out to be an arrogant one. When her looks were only average. If only she had calmed down enough to listen that he had done nothing to her and she had sneaked into bed later that night. Brushing off the issue, he quickly got dressed. A little paper was evident in his hands. The command from his master after disappearing for three years. "I owe a favor to the Famous family. And we matched made you with Emily Famous. You're to go to Eastside and fulfill this promise. And while I am gone, you're to fill in for me in my duties of protecting the Famous family. If you make any mistake, I'm going to break your neck when I am back!" The stern words of the note read. Quinin squeezed the paper tightly. 'First disappearing for three years, pretending like you had been kidnapped and leaving me to fend for myself. And now, sending me on errands.' Someone else in this case might not have lived. But not when it was coming from one of the most important persons in his life. Five years ago, his Uncle and his mentor saved him from the brink of death. He was forced out of the city and stayed and trained with his mentor while his Uncle remained in the city to be taken care of on his own accord. Quinin owed his mentor too much and would not dare to disobey. "Besides, I get to see Uncle after such a long time apart." He walked briefly outside the hotel. Hateful glares and perplexed gazes eating into his back. He got into the cab straight to the city's mall. After such a long time, he needed to get something for his uncle at least. At the same time he got out of the car, a new Range Rover stopped at the spot and a stunning lady stepped out, full of grace. A small crowd had gathered to marvel at the astonishing beauty of Lady Emily, one of the finest of Eastside. "She looks like the ray of morning sun. A breath of fresh air." The man that would have her is going to be so Lucky." They all praised. However, her eyes were deadlocked at someone else. Someone that caused her stomach to twist. "You!" The vines on her neck popped at her growls. Everyone's attention was now focused on the farm boy. "Who is he?" The small crowd that had gathered inquired. "As long as he is way out of the league of my beautiful Emily, I don't care." "Do you know him?" Victoria and Tina, standing close to Emily, inquired. "He's the guy I told you all about." Her face flashed with a glim expression. "He's trailing you?" They frowned collectively. With anger in her steps, Emily walked over to Quinin. "What's the meaning of this? Trailing me now?" Her brows were raised slightly. "Don't think too highly of yourself Miss. I came here for a totally different reason." "Oh! Is that so?" Her voice dripped cold with sarcasm. "Then tell me why it had to be my personal mall of all places and at the time I usually visit weekly." The frown deepened into her face. Before she could get the response that she wanted, a voice sounded from behind them. "Seems someone is giving my princess a little trouble." A new sports car that caught the attention of everyone stepped right into the place. An average-looking young man stepped forward. No other than one of Emily's admirers, and the richest of them all. Kelly James. "Don't worry. Dealing with dogs like him is a passion for me, Emily." He said smoothly. But when his gaze returned to Quinin, who remained standing with a straight face, the devil from within was revealed in his mere looks.Expand

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

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

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

At that moment, Nero had already started to panic. “I don’t want any trouble.” He said with a shaky voice, but nothing made him more confused than the fact that Quin was too relaxed for the situation on the ground. “I don’t know why you are acting this way, Quin. But I think the best thing to do is to apologize. Look at the muscles of these men, they look like tree branches.” Nero couldn’t make up his mind as to which of the two men he was going to focus on.They both looked like they were ready to pounce on them.“I am very sorry, Sir.” Neo apologized to Declan. My friend and I will be on our way.” He grabbed Quin by his hand and tried to drag him away, but Quin stood firm. “Let’s go, Quin.” He whispered, but Quin refused to budge.“I think I am going to leave you here, Quin.” Nero let go of Quin, and then he turned to Declan and pleaded with a shaky voice. “I will go, Sir. You don’t need to tell your men to beat me up. I am very sorry for coming to this place.” Nero made a move t

Nero sighed. He was so relieved when he saw Quin. “That’s him! That’s the man I told you I came with!” He said to the Manager, pointing at Quin who was so furious while staring at his friend who was being manhandled. “Take him down!” He fired, and because his voice was compelling, the security men didn’t waste any time to bring Nero down. “I told you that I didn’t come alone!” Nero said loudly, and then he ran to Quin and stood right beside him, staring at Declan. “Where have you been, Quin?” Nero whispered to Quin his voice still laced with a little nervousness. “These people almost threw me out of this place. I thought that you were gone.”“I am sorry, Nero. I had a call and I got carried away in there.” Quin apologized, and Nero nodded.“I think that’s the owner of this place, Quin.” Nero pointed at Declan. “It seems like he is going to throw us out.”Quin scoffed. “He is not the owner of this restaurant, Nero. He is just the Manager.” Quin spoke very confidently, and it was en

The man was no other person than the Manager of the restaurant, Declan Kim. A young man in his early thirties who loved so much authority.Declan had just began his job as the Manager of the restaurant a few days earlier, and the new position and title had gained him a lot of recognition in the City. He grew fame overnight, and almost all the ladies wanted him. He could be regarded as a man who loved to showcase his strength, and seeing Nero seated on the most luxurious table and looking tacky didn’t seem pleasing to him. “I asked you a question, Mister!” Declan banged hard on the table, causing Nero to fidget with his eyes wide open.“Who are you? And what the hell are you doing here?!” Declan looked around, and when he saw that there were a lot of customers who had seen Nero, he growled in annoyance. Nero stuttered. “I…” He couldn’t find the right words to say, and when he looked toward the restroom, it didn’t look like Quin was going to be back.“What has Quin done to me?” He mu
