Suddenly, Quentin's phone vibrated strongly, almost causing him to get up from his chair to check the screen. His eyes widened in astonishment." I have a message from Jasmine ! She wants us to meet to finally settle things," he said with a trembling voice filled with emotion.Maya's face lit up." What wonderful news ! This is your chance to prove to her that you've changed."Quentin vigorously nodded his head, his heart pounding with hope." I absolutely have to go see her..."He hastily left his office, ignoring the persistent calls from his secretary.Outside, he came to a halt.." But where should I go to find her ? " he suddenly thought, overcome by panic .At that very moment, a second message appeared, containing an address. Quentin displayed a wide smile and hurriedly rushed to his car, starting it abruptly.[ 15 minutes later...]Quantin arrived at the meeting place, his heart pounding. An abandoned warehouse stood menacingly before him." Jasmine ? " he exclaimed as he ente
" Don't move, Mr. Quantin Chen, or I'll shoot ! " declared the young woman with a murderous gaze filled with anger.Quantin remained motionless and powerless.Suddenly, another man injected a syringe into Quentin's neck. His vision became blurry, and he collapsed weakly onto the floor, unconscious.[•••••••••••••••••••••••••]Maya paced nervously in her office, consumed by anxiety. No news from Quentin for hours. Her phone rang unanswered." But where could he possibly be ! " she wondered, growing increasingly worried.As panic intensified in her chest, she made a decision." I'm going to visit Jasmine. Maybe he's still with her."A few minutes later, she found herself at Jasmine's place. Surprised, Jasmine welcomed her." Maya? What brings you here? You look deeply disturbed..."Maya replied with a tense voice," Has Quentin had the honor of visiting you today? He informed me that you had sent him a message to arrange a meeting."Jasmine stared at her, astonished." Absolutely not !
Mateo left without looking back, fiercely issuing orders to his gathered subordinates." Plunder everything of value ! Destroy the rest ! " he shouted.His men then pounced on Quentin's residence like a pack of hungry wolves, breaking, stealing, and ravaging everything in their path." Deal with the staff ! Make them disappear ! " Mateo barked again.His henchmen began ruthlessly hunting down the servants, shooting anyone who resisted. Piercing screams filled the air.At twilight, the massacre came to an end. The mansion was nothing but a smoldering field of ruins.Mateo entered Quentin's office, stepping over the corpses, and settled into the boss's chair with evident delight." I have finally taken control of all of Quentin's assets. I am now the new CEO of Chen Enterprises," he declared with a triumphant smile.He poured himself a drink and raised his glass in a toast." To our new conquest ! "His men clinked glasses with him, laughing heartily.[ ••• ••• ••• ]As Quentin's body i
Suddenly, the door swung open abruptly, and a determined Japanese nurse named Lyly entered, her eyes sparkling with urgency.The nurse who was taking care of Quentin turned around, stunned." Who... who are you ? " she stammered, taken aback.Without a word, Lyly rushed to Quentin's bedside. Swiftly, she struck the nurse who was attending to him, causing her to collapse." Now, I must extract this patient from this facility as quickly as possible ! " Lyly thought.Ignoring the chaotic surroundings, Lyly skillfully unplugged the cables connected to Quentin's trembling body, while closely monitoring him.Gently, she lifted Quentin's fragile body from the bed, cradling him carefully despite his convulsions. His breathing was shallow and erratic.Navigating through the bustling hallways, Lyly moved with grace and determination." I will succeed. This patient must not succumb," she whispered.A truck awaited them outside the hospital, its engine roaring. With a firm hand, Lyly carefully pl
Quentin was about to reply when a familiar female voice called out to him," Quentin, please come back home! Your dinner is getting cold ! "He turned around to see Lyly, who was waving at him from the end of the street. A smile appeared on his face, and he started walking towards her.The young man firmly grabbed Quentin's arm, preventing him from leaving." I haven't finished talking to you."Lyly approached with determined steps, her face displaying a stern expression." Quentin has nothing else to say to you. Let him join me."She then firmly grasped Quentin's hand and pulled him along.The young man and his bodyguards burst into a harsh laugh." Did you see how pathetic he is, clinging to that woman ? " one of them remarked." He has lost everything and is now nothing but a beggar wandering the streets ! How disgraceful," added the other.The arrogant young man shook his head, feigning a pitiful look." Quentin Chen, once an industry magnate, now lower than the dust beneath my fe
As Quentin began his recovery, a sudden commotion outside caught his attention. Lyly rushed to the window to catch a glimpse of a group of people rushing towards the house, shouting his name." Quick ! Our friend is seriously ill, we fear he won't survive ! " declared a desperate man.Lyly turned to her mother." What should we do ? "" Go and help them, my daughter," her mother replied, confident in her abilities." But what about Quentin ? " Lyly hesitated.Quentin took her hand." Go, someone needs your help. I'll be fine."Lyly's mother nodded approvingly." Go ahead, it is your duty to assist this patient. Do what you do best."Lyly smiled faintly." I'll be back quickly."Then she followed the group with determined steps." What's the problem ? " she asked, kneeling beside the patient, who was already pale." He had a seizure and then lost consciousness, we can't wake him up!" cried a distraught woman.Lyly carefully and gently examined the patient." His breathing is weak and i
Thus, Quentin and Arjun escaped from Lyly's mother's house, evading the approaching police.They ran through the streets, turning back at every corner, until they finally reached a train station." Where are we heading ? " Quentin asked, gasping for breath." We're going home ! " Arjun replied, scanning the surroundings for any signs of danger.They quickly bought a ticket and boarded the next arriving train.Once aboard, Arjun turned to Quentin." What you achieved back there is hardly commendable," Arjun declared disapprovingly.Quentin raised an eyebrow." What do you mean ? "" You know exactly what I'm talking about. Your behavior towards Lyly's mother was inappropriate. You seemed completely devoid of gratitude for what she and her daughter did for you," Arjun stated in a serious tone.Quentin sighed." I had to act that way to protect them," he replied." What do you mean ? " Arjun asked, confused." I don't know if you're being followed or monitored by someone, but I had to ma
Suddenly, Quentin turns his gaze towards the direction from which the detonation resonated and catches sight of an old lady struggling with a masked individual in the public thoroughfare.He then turns to Arjun, wearing a fervent expression." We must intervene, she needs our help ! "Arjun tries to hold him back." Quentin, wait ! It's dangerous, we should alert the authorities ! "But Quentin is determined." I don't have time, I can't remain idle here ! " he exclaims, freeing himself from Arjun's grip.He rushes into the street at full speed." Quentin, no ! " exclaims Arjun as he follows him.When they arrive at the scene, the woman is being mistreated by the masked individual.Quentin charges towards them like a fury." Release her immediately ! "The masked individual turns towards him and delivers a powerful punch. Quentin takes the blow, then retaliates with a violent knee strike to the stomach.The man stumbles. Quentin grabs him by the arm and disarms him with a skilled move
