"Alright, alright, go check, go check," Ivy lowered her eyes sinisterly.
"No need, I believe her."
At this mont, a deep magnetic voice spoke slowly, and then lody Thorne felt her waist tighten as she was pulled into a man’s embrace.
lody Thorne’s back collided with a body of steel, a vast male aura invaded her tiny pores, and the shadow above her deepened.
Caleb turned his head, his eyes holding a bottomless darkness, especially when he saw Jared Quinn holding lody Thorne.
"Jared..." Ivy widened her eyes. Clearly, lody Thorne had entered Caleb’s room, yet he chose to believe her.
"No need to investigate; I was the one who called lody Thorne. I just finished playing mahjong and, hearing that the Adler Family’s young master was well, I ca to see. I had lody Thorne bring a glass of water in the anti. What? Do I need to explain every single thing to you now?"
Mrs. Quinn glared angrily at Ivy, regretting ever considering her as a potential daughter-in-law!
"Aunt...Auntie"
"Enough, from now on, our Quinn Family matters will be resolved by ourselves, outsiders should not interfere," Mr. Quinn turned and left, "Stop standing around here, disperse."
"I..." Ivy ran off crying.
Mrs. Quinn supported Mr. Quinn back to the room.
However, the large hands on lody Thorne’s body didn’t leave, holding her in place without taking a step.
She looked up, discovering Jared Quinn’s gaze fixed on Caleb.
"Thump, thump," her heart pounded violently, a foreboding feeling creeping up from behind.
"Let go, I need to take care of Grandpa," lody Thorne lowered her head, trying to pry his big hand away.
Jared Quinn looked down, a slight smile in his eyes tinged with deep aning or rather, warm anger, especially as she hurriedly distanced herself from him.
Suddenly, his large hand lifted her chin, firmly capturing her soft lips, kissing her in a way that allowed no resistance.
"Hmph..."
lody Thorne struggled; how could he kiss her in front of others!!!
The more she moved, the more angered Jared Quinn beca.
The scene at the doorway, so close that it couldn’t be avoided even if one wanted to, made Caleb turn his back to them, looking out at the pitch-black night through the window, barely containing the sinister aura growing within...
Everything lody Thorne wanted to say was silenced, her hands gripping the fabric of his chest tightly, her fingers almost embedding into his chest.
Jared Quinn kissed her for a full five minutes before releasing her, his cold, indifferent gaze sweeping over Caleb as he fixed her waist and walked away.
lody Thorne beat her hands on his chest with increasing force, biting and scratching in an intense reaction, "Let go."
Jared Quinn’s arm genuinely loosened bit by bit, and lody Thorne turned and ran away.
Dr. Mo stepped out only after the two had finished, resignedly bringing Jared Quinn into his office.
Seeing the wounds on his chest still unhealed, he gasped, noticing new scratches and bite marks, the stitches he’d previously done now torn open, it was simply... unbearable to look at.
Dr. Mo prepared dicine and stitches to sew him up again, murmuring as he worked, "I once read in a book that a man’s forceful ways could never conquer a woman, only the word ’gentle’ could do that."
"Do I need you to teach ?" Jared Quinn shot him a cold sidelong glance.
