NovelEnglishRuby bestowed upon Quinn a courteous smile, a silent salutation. She uttered no further words, busying herself
with drying her hands before disappearing from sight.
Quinn's gaze lingered on Ruby's retreating figure, a graceful silhouette against the backdrop of their mundane
surroundings. As her attention returned to her own reflection, she couldn't help but notice the stark contrast
between them. Quinn was disheveled, a stark contrast to Ruby's poise. The realization dawned on her that some
individuals possessed the ability to stir feelings of insecurity with a mere glance.
Ruby was likely the object of everyone's admiration.Quinn studied her unruly hair in the mirror, a wry smile
tugging at the corners of her mouth. 'How could anyone findappealing?’ she mused. After taming her
rebellious locks, she exited the restroom.
Upon returning to her desk, Quinn noticed Ruby standing beside Maria, both women engrossed in whatever was
displayed on Maria's computer screen. Their conversation was a murmur of hushed whispers.
Maria's eyes flicked towards Quinn as she whispered, "Ruby, do you have any dirt on that dummy?"
Ruby's demeanor faltered for a moment before she regained her composure. "Focus on your work and stop
spreading rumors," she admonished.
Maria pouted but obediently returned to her task, finalizing the documents at hand. Ruby shot Quinn a glance,
an unreadable emotion flickering in her eyes before she retreated to her office.
With Ruby's return, Maria dared not slack off, leaving Quinn with little to do in the past few days. Although Kyle
had burdened her with a stack of worksheets, he ended up completing most of them himself, leaving Quinn with
an abundance of free time.
However, a problem arose concerning Leon. On Friday, as she prepared to leave, she overheard whispers of an
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtissue with Leon's accounts and the impending arrival of an investigator. The rumor mill suggested that Leon
might face imprisonment.
Sympathetic glances were thrown in Quinn's direction as the office buzzed with whispers. The consensus seemed
to be that Quinn was involved with Leon, and with his current predicament, she had lost her protector.Ignoring
their stares, Quinn positioned herself quietly in a corner. As the elevator arrived, she stepped in and swiftly
exited the building.
The previous night, Alexander hadn't returned home, but Nicholas had sent her a message detailing their
meeting location for the following day.
Clutching her phone, Quinn spent the night on the couch, rising early the next morning to head to the coffee
shop Nicholas had chosen.

There, at the designated spot, sat a man who appeared to be in his thirties. He was dressed in a suit, his hair
styled with precision. His chiseled features and determined gaze mirrored the resolve in his voice. Quinn
approached and took the seat opposite Nicholas.
Upon noticing her, Nicholas offered a smile and a nod. "Quinn, right?"She responded with a slight nod.
"We've already discussed the specifics via text, so let's head to the elder's place," Nicholas suggested.
Confusion clouded Quinn's features. She had no idea where Ariel resided.Nicholas, noticing her perplexed
expression, inferred as much. "You don't know?"Quinn nodded, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment. She felt
as though she had wasted Nicholas's time.
Nicholas furrowed his brows. "This complicates things, but wait here. I'll make a call."
He retrieved his phone and dialed a number. "Can you look someone up for me? Yeah, I'll send over the info
soon, thanks."
After ending the call, he turned to
