FROM STREETS TO SUITES Greg's True Intentions.
Harrison froze to the spot. He had asked Vera what time Quinn would arrive at the office, and it was definitely not at the time that she had arrived.He stopped for a moment and then turned around to face her. He looked down, before facing her."You are here," he muttered.She did not say anything; rather, she crossed her arms over her chest and took steady strides closer to him.She took a halt in front of him, her eyes burning with fury for him."What is your problem? Why can't you just give up, and understand that I don't want you? You had to use Vera to execute your plans, why?" She mouthed.He cleared his throat, "Why can't you see it? I love you, Quinn. I know I messed up in the past, but I am here now to ask for your forgiveness. Just give me a chance, please, I promise to make things right," he replied, taking a step closer to her.He held her arms, looking into her eyes. He studied her expression and added."I can see it in your eyes that you love me. Quinn, I know you are st
FROM STREETS TO SUITES Harrison Saves Quinn.
Quinn could not believe her ears. She looked at him in horror mixed with surprise. She did not even know what to say to him.Before she could comprehend whether or not it was a joke, he picked her up immediately and threw her on the bed.She began to struggle with him, but his grip was so tight that she almost gave up trying to break free.She recalled Harrison's words to her, remembering that he told her to be careful around Greg.Wishing that she could go back in time to refuse his invitation, she let out a scream, but the room was soundproof, so her scream could hardly go past the next room.A tear ran down her cheek, as she wondered if she would end up getting raped and deceived by someone she thought was in love with her.Regret filled her heart as she considered herself foolish for falling for his tricks. He did not notice her back in high school, so how could he have fallen in love with her?"Greg, stop, please!" She begged, struggling with all her might to break free from his
FROM STREETS TO SUITES Peaceful Sleep.
Harrison turned to her, giving her a deep stare. He looked down at her hand that held him.Her eyes were communicating fear and deep emotions he could not explain. He took her in a bridal style, and her arms wrapped around his neck immediately, burying her face in him.He took her to the car and placed her gently inside. He sat in the driver's seat and ignited the engine.As he rode the car, he kept glancing at her, making sure she was okay. She, on the other hand, had her face to the window.Her mind was occupied with a whole lot of thoughts, especially about what happened that day.She never thought Greg would have such intentions towards her. She let a tear flow down, as she thought of how her life was.Was she born to be hurt? Did she come into the world to be toyed with?She took a glance at Harrison. Did he love her? Did she love him too? Her mind was jumbled up with different thoughts and emotions that she could barely be certain about anything.They finally got to his house,
FROM STREETS TO SUITES Weekend At Harrison's.
The silence that revolved around the room was a bit eerie, causing Quinn to feel as though she was being a burden to him, considering how complicated their relationship was. "Uh, it's okay if—" "You can stay," he replied, cutting her off, "you stay for as long as you want." She nodded, and lowered her head, finding it difficult to look at him in the eyes. The atmosphere was strange, as none of them said a word. She muttered a thank you to him and rushed to the bathroom. She stayed in there for a while until she was sure that he had gone. She slowly opened the door to make sure that he was not inside, and when she was certain that he was not in, she came out with a white towel wrapped around her chest. Looking around the room, the bed was neatly dressed, and a few boxes of clothes were kept on the bed. It made her wonder how long she had spent inside the bathroom. She picked one of the boxes that had the name "body kit" boldly written on top of it. She opened it to find a se
FROM STREETS TO SUITES Dealing With Them.
His aura was domineering, making the atmosphere tense, causing the two men to shiver in fear, as their eyes wore a mask of fear for their lives. "Do you agree?" He asked, but only the thief gave a positive response. He quickly nodded his head, while Greg tried to prove stubborn. It made Harrison let out a chuckle, wondering why he was trying to be tough. He did not mind nor bother him. In the end, he was still going to talk. "I will only ask you two questions. Who sent you to Quinn?" He asked, and paused, studying their faces, "How much were you paid?" The thief was the first to speak up, as he saw Harrison pick up a tool. "I. I was sent by Ms. Lee. She paid me two thousand dollars to make sure that I caused her to be hospitalized. I'm so sorry sir, I had no idea who that lady was." After his confession, he lowered his head down, afraid of what might befall him if he looked up at Harrison. Harrison took a few steps closer to him, "Do you know that your actions are punishable
FROM STREETS TO SUITES Reconciling With Vera.
Vera noticed the bandage on her ankle and realized that something must have happened to her. She rushed in with Jasmine to help her up.Quinn looked away, mouthing a thank you to them for assisting her.Harrison, too got up from the floor, turning to Jasmine."You didn't tell me you were coming.""I was going to surprise you. I did not know you had a visitor. Sorry," she said the last word in a whisper."Let's go downstairs," he said and walked up to Quinn."Let me help you," he said."No, no. I can walk on my own." She refused, limping on one foot.He watched her try to walk on her own, and couldn't help but chuckle.He did not bother asking for her permission anymore, he walked up to her and picked her up."Har—" she could not scream, she just allowed him to carry her downstairs.Jasmine and Vera's eyes were on them as they looked like a newly wedded couple.She averted her gaze, as soon as Harrison placed her on the chair.She could not face any of them as her face was flushed in
FROM STREETS TO SUITES Partners' Big Project.
"I just want to thank you for saving me. I'm grateful," she said, clamping her hands together, and and fiddling with her fingers.Harrison waited for a while, then, he moved closer to her, placed a hand on hers, and looked into her eyes."You don't have to thank me. I am only doing what I should have done a long time ago, and I promise you, Quinn, I will protect you from anything and anybody that tries to harm you."She looked back at him, searching his eyes for what seemed to be answers to her questions.She could see the sincerity in his eyes, and how concerned he was. It made her heart flutter.He leaned closer, making an attempt to kiss her. She drew closer, as well, but their moment was interrupted by the ringtone on her phone.She quickly retreated and searched for her phone. When she picked it up, she realized who was calling her.It was Ivan."Sorry, excuse me." She said, getting up on her feet.She slowly limped forward, taking some distance away from him.She answered the ph
FROM STREETS TO SUITES Virtual Meeting.
"It seems like Gerald's Conglomerate and Ro Groups are planning something spectacular. Rumors about the two becoming closer have been circulating. Could it be that they are in a relationship? Or are they working on something together?"That was the post."Who made this post?" Harrison asked, giving the phone back to Hardy."It says that the post was made by an anonymous, but I'm working on finding out who it is," Hardy responded.Quinn looked at them in confusion, feeling lost. She stared at them, hoping that they would clarify her.Hardy noticed her confused look, and apologized immediately, turning to inform her."There has been a post made by an anonymous user, which is beginning to go viral. It says that you and Mr. Fitz are unexpectedly becoming closer, and they need clarification on whether it is just restricted to business or you both are in a relationship. A picture of you entering Mr. Fitz's car in the night was attached to it," he explained.Harrison studied her expression a

Yours, Forever.
Harrison stood outside the hospital. The air was filled with the scent of freedom and relief, at last.It had been some depressing and stressful months. But tonight was different. Tonight, he felt lighter, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.The glass doors of the hospital slid open, and Harrison walked out, his tall frame silhouetted against the bright lights of the lobby. Harrison took a deep breath and stepped forward to Ivan. For a moment, neither of them spoke, the silence was eerie. Then, Harrison broke it."Ivan," he began, his voice steady, "I know I hurt Quinn. I know I messed up in ways I can't even begin to describe. But... I’m truly sorry."Ivan’s gaze was hard as he studied Harrison, his eyes searching for sincerity. Then, with a slow, deliberate nod, he replied, "I believe you, Harrison. And I can see how much you love my sister. Just... don’t make me regret this."Relief flooded through Harrison, and without thinking, he extended his hand. After a b
Death.
The night air was thick with tension. Harrison stood firm, his gaze locked with Jacob’s as they faced off under the dim glow of the moonlight. Jacob’s eyes gleamed with a dangerous glint, a crazed smile twitching at the corners of his lips.“So, you want one of us to die, huh?” Harrison’s voice was steady, though his heart raced wildly in his chest. “You think that’s the only way this ends?”Jacob nodded slowly, his smile widening. “Oh, I know it is. One must die for the other to live, Harrison. No way out of that. And you, Harrison, will die.”Quinn stood behind Harrison, her entire body shaking as she watched the two men. The man she loved and the man who had traumatized her in the past.Tears streamed down her cheeks as fear coiled in her stomach like a venomous snake.“Please, stop this,” she begged, her voice breaking. “Both of you, just—”Jacob laughed, a hollow, chilling sound that cut through her plea like a blade. “No more running, no more hiding. Let’s settle this once and
Back Door And Race.
The aftermath of the explosion left a thick cloud of smoke and dust settling in the air just outside the house. Harrison grabbed Quinn's hand, pulling her close as they stumbled backwards, away from the shattered window. He looked at Quinn, panic etched into his face as the sound of the phone ringing pierced through the chaos. It was Jacob again.Quinn’s eyes widened with fear as she realized how serious Jacob was. Her body trembled, and she screamed, covering her ears, trying to block out the shackles collapsing around her. Harrison watched her, his heart aching at her terror. He pulled her close, whispering reassurances, but his own fear was evident.Jacob’s voice on the other end was disturbingly calm, a contrast to the chaos he had just unleashed. “I’m warning you. Involve the police, and you’ll face more than just an explosion.”Harrison’s jaw tightened as he gripped the phone. “What do you want, Jacob?” he demanded.“I only want Quinn,” Jacob replied coolly. “And I’m giving y
Truth And Explosion.
Harrison’s voice was calm, yet filled with remorse as he recounted the painful memories that had tormented him for years. He hesitated before speaking again, his gaze fixed on the floor, avoiding Quinn’s eyes.“I’ve been carrying this guilt for a long time,” he began quietly, “ever since Stella… I wasn’t ready to be a father. I didn’t know how to deal with the situation or how to support her the way she deserved. I was reckless, neglectful even, and I regret every moment of it.”Quinn remained silent, her expression unreadable. Despite her efforts to maintain her composure, her heart tightened with sympathy and confusion.Harrison took a deep breath, exhaling slowly as if releasing a burden that had been suffocating him. “I remember that day like it was yesterday,” he continued, his voice trembling slightly. “Stella and I had an argument that morning. It wasn’t anything serious, just about trivial things and then she left the house. I didn’t think much of it. I saw her hurry up, head
Tell Me.
The drive to Quinn’s secluded apartment was silent. Ivan’s eyes stayed locked on the road, his knuckles white against the steering wheel. Beside him, Eva cradled baby Eric, her gaze drifting between the passing scenery and her husband’s hardened profile. Harrison, unbeknownst to Ivan, had followed secretly from a distance. He trailed their car cautiously, never letting it out of his sight.Quinn’s apartment was a small cottage, nestled in a deserted outskirt of the city. It was the perfect hideaway, but the isolation only made her feel more hurt. It had been almost a week since she had spoken to anyone other than her doctor and Ivan.See was not ready to see anyone, especially not her brother, but she knew they would come sooner or later.When she saw Ivan’s car pull up outside, she took a deep breath, bracing herself for what was sure to be an emotional encounter.“Quinn,” Eva greeted softly as she stepped inside, carrying baby Eric in her arms. She smiled gently, trying to mask h
Only Hope.
Harrison paced back and forth in his apartment, his phone gripped tightly in his hand. He had tried calling Quinn multiple times, only to be met with silence. Each unanswered call, each unread message fueled his frustration. He couldn’t get through to Ivan either. Everyone seemed to have locked him out. The only person he could think of now, the only one who might listen was Eva.His finger moved over her number. He knew calling her was risky. She was, after all, Ivan’s wife. But he was desperate. He needed someone to hear him out before everything goes out of control.Taking a deep breath, he pressed the call button. The phone rang twice before he heard her soft voice on the other end.“Harrison?” Eva sounded surprised. “Is everything okay?”“Eva, please—I need to see you,” he blurted out, his voice laced with desperation. “Just for a few minutes. It’s important.”She hesitated, her silence making him worried. “I don’t know, Harrison. Ivan wouldn’t like it if he found out we met.”
My Turn.
Harrison sat in the dark, his hands buried in his hair as he stared at the blinking phone screen. Quinn’s voice replayed in his mind, cold and distant.“Never call me again.”The four words had shattered him, and now he felt the pang of every secret he had kept from her. Jasmine stood beside him, her expression torn between anger and pity.“It’s not the end of the world, Harrison,” Jasmine murmured, reaching out to place a hand on his shoulder. “Quinn is angry, but if you explain—”“Explain?” Harrison cut her off, his voice laced with a bitterness that surprised even himself. “Explain what, Jasmine? That I’m a coward who let Jacob control me? That I was too scared to tell the woman I love about something that could destroy her trust in me forever?”Jasmine’s gaze softened. “It wasn’t your fault, Harrison. What happened to Stella and the baby was an accident. You know that. She knows that.”“But she doesn’t know!” Harrison exclaimed, his frustration spilling over. He stood abruptly, kn

Running Away.
Quinn’s heart felt like it had been shattered into a thousand pieces as she sped away from Harrison’s office. The images, the recordings, Jacob’s smug grin...everything played on repeat in her mind. Harrison’s face as she confronted him was burned into her memory, and it only deepened her pain. How could he have kept something like this from her? How could he have betrayed her trust so completely?When she finally pulled into Ivan’s house, she barely had the strength to get out of the car. She didn’t even need to knock before the door flew open, revealing Ivan’s concerned face. He must have known something was wrong the moment she locked herself up all night.“Princess,” he mouthed, his eyes scanning her tear-streaked face. “What happened?”Quinn’s composure broke as she launched herself into his arms, sobs racking her body. Ivan held her tight, his jaw clenched in silent fury. Whatever had caused this, he knew it had something to do with Harrison. His mind raced, imagining a hund
