Chapter 293 Do You Have A Crush On Me?
“Pack… Pack it up for me?”
Shirley was stunned. His words caught her off guard.
Mr. Quintin turned to look at her in confusion. “You don’t like it?”
“No, no, I like it. I like it so much!”
Shirley looked at the painting and peeked at Mr. Quintin, whispering, “Give it to me? Isn’t it
inappropriate?”
Although she was hinting at Mr. Quintin just now to give her the painting, she had not expected that he
would be so generous and really want to give it to her.
“Since you like it, there is nothing inappropriate.”
Mr. Quintin said lightly, “It is just a painting. I have plenty of it in my pawnshop.”
“Thank you, Mr. Quintin. Thank you so much.”
Shirley bowed at him again and again. She even wanted to serve him coffee and gave him a massage.
She started to feel that Mr. Quintin was extremely charming with a mask on his face.
Sure enough, money could make a man the most charming in the world!
Shirley suddenly remembered what the old man told her. “Mountains and waters part you away from the
right
person. But across hills and rivers, you will meet him again…”
Did it mean that Mr. Quintin was her Mr. Right? Was he one in a million?
But it would be so ridiculous. If Braden knew that she was with his enemy after his death, he would
probably
be so pissed that he would come back to life!
“What are you thinking about?”
Shirley was too absorbed in her thoughts, unaware that Mr. Quintin had been staring at her for a long
time.
The changes on her face evoked his curiosity.
“No, nothing!”
Shirley shook her head. After a moment of silence, she asked tentatively, “Well, may I ask you
something?”
“Yes.”

Shirley usually wouldn’t gossip about other people’s private affairs.
But Mr. Quintin was so generous that she felt strange, which made her suspect that Mr. Quintin had been
secretly falling for her before she knew it.
After all, Antwan was an example.
Therefore, she wanted to confirm whether Mr. Quintin would be her “right person”.
Mr. Quintin was obviously stunned for a moment, and then he said coldly, “I have no girlfriend, no wife,
and under normal conditions, no children either.”
“I see…”
The expression on Shirley’s face became even more complicated.
This guy was an eligible bachelor! He must have someone he loved yet couldn’t get. Otherwise, he
wouldn’t
still be single!
Could it be her? Did he like her?
“You are so rich and powerful. Why don’t you have a relationship? Has your heart already belonged to
some girl, yet you can’t be with her?”
Shirley continued to probe.
Mr. Quintin said expressionlessly, “What do you want to say?”
Shirley took a deep breath. She didn’t want to beat about the bush and looked straight into his eyes and
said, “Just tell me. Do you have a crush on me?”
Mr. Quintin was shocked.
“You got close to my son before and lied to him that you wanted to be my subordinate. You were trying to
get
close to me, right?
“Everyone says that you are the Midnight Ghost, a cold-blooded monster who kills people without
blinking an eye. But you are so generous to me. You gave me 1.6 billion dollars and the painting just
because I asked. It is obvious that you want to win my favor…
“The most important thing is that you make enemies with Braden in Seatle City! It must be because you
hate him for marrying me! Because you love me.”
Shirley analyzed.
She was not a narcissistic person in the past, but after Antwan, she believed in everything. She had to
admit that she was indeed charming to certain people.
“You…”
Mr. Quintin worked hard to digest what Shirley said. Then, he said calmly and lightly, “You have a rich
imagination.”
“Am I wrong?”
After speaking, Shirley approached him and reached out to put her hand on his chest.
Mr. Quintin furrowed his brows and grabbed her hand tightly. “What are you doing?”
“Don’t get nervous. I just want to know if your heart beats fast because of me…”
Shirley raised her eyes and smiled. Indeed, she was charming and sexy.
Mr. Quintin felt strange at first, but then, his thin lips curved up into a grin. He wrapped his arms around
her waist and pulled her towards him. He said in a low voice, “Then stick closer to me. You will hear it
more
clearly.”
Shirley instantly blushed and slipped away from his arms.
“Don’t panic. I won’t bite you…”
Mr. Quintin took the initiative to approach Shirley step by step. He smiled and said, “As you said, I am the
enemy of your ex-husband. The enemy of the enemy can be a friend. We can make do with it.”
“No!”
Shirley immediately made a “No” gesture.
She knew that this man had a crush on her. Her sixth sense was still very accurate.
Unfortunately, she only wanted to focus on her career and did not want to start a relationship yet.
“I don’t have the mood and the time to date anyone. You should just give up on this idea!”
Shirley looked at Mr. Quintin and said coldly.
Mr. Quintin shook his head and said with a half-smile, “Don’t worry. I’m only interested in your island.”
“That’s good.”
Although Shirley said this, she still felt that this guy was lying. She had to keep a distance from him so
that he wouldn’t misunderstand and get obsessed with her!
Mr. Quintin had a private plane. After applying for a flight route, they boarded the plane as quickly as
possible to head for Sunflower Island.

The sofa on the private plane was placed on the same side. In order to keep a distance from Mr. Quintin,
Shirley stayed away from him by about 3 feet.
After the plane took off, she immediately put on her earphones with a look of “do not disturb” on her face.
Mr. Quintin, on the other hand, swayed a wine glass in his hands and looked outside the cabin window
with
interest.
Seatle City was some distance from Sunflower Island. Because they set off at night, Shirley started to
feel a
little cold.
In order to avoid talking to Mr. Quintin, she braced herself and said nothing.
She sneezed.
After a while, Shirley couldn’t take it anymore. She crossed her arms and sneezed.
“Are you cold?”
Mr. Quintin asked in a low voice.
“No.”
Shirley lied.
Mr. Quintin shook his head and did not say anything else. He then ordered the flight attendant to turn up
the
heat.
Shirley soon felt warmer. She said in her heart, what a stubborn man, saying that you don’t have a crush
on me. Then you shouldn’t make it so obviously, silly.
A few hours later, the plane arrived at Sunflower Island and stopped at the helipad.
At this moment, Sunflower Island was in the early morning. The breeze was cool, the sea was blue, and
the sun was rising from the horizon. The air was pure and fresh. It was a place even more beautiful than
paradise!
There was not only beautiful natural scenery but also man-made buildings on the island.
There was also a field of sunflowers, a white church, a small house on the sea, a pool, a study room.
This
island had everything!
Mr. Quintin was surprised. He did not expect this island to be so perfect.
Shirley raised her chin and said proudly, “What do you think? Buying this place for 1.6 billion dollars is a
great deal, right? This is not the only thing that this island has!”
