Yvette helplessly said, âBut itâs meâ¦â
âOkay, I have to go now, Yvie! Otherwise, Sean will realize somethingâs off. Keep the gift!â
Then, Jasper forcefully gave Yvette the gift and left in a hurry. He couldnât afford to get caught by Sean before Yvette agreed to date him. If not, Sean would surely beat him up again.
Meanwhile, at Quinn Corporation, Wilson was listening to his guardâs report.
âMr. Quinn, we just received word from Ms. Olson. She wishes to study at Jubilife University.â
Hearing that, Wilson said plainly, âTell her to stay at the hospital and focus on her treatment.â
The guard was hesitant, but he said, âMr. Quinn, Ms. Olson has always been very gifted in art. If it werenât for her poor health, she wouldâve made great achievements in the field. Also, Ms. Olson really wants to pick up painting again.â
O He continued when he was met with silence, âMr. Quinn, Ms. Olsonâs health has improved a lot.
Please grant her wish this one time!â
Narrowing his eyes, Wilsonâs gaze was intimidating. The guard was terrified.
Then, Wilson said, âYou can arrange for her enrollment into Jubilife University.â
âGot it, Mr. Quinn!â The guard promptly answered and then left the room. He called Lionel to tell him about the news.
âMr. Quinn agreed,â the guard said, still somewhat shaken by Wilsonâs earlier gaze. âLionel, I took a huge risk to put a good word in for you!â
Before Lionel was sent abroad to protect Victoria, he was the captain of the guards. Lionel had a good relationship with the guards who were stationed closely to Wilson. Even though Lionel was eventually sent to protect Victoria, the guards still respected Lionel.
Lionel said, âThanks. I owe you one. Iâll buy you a meal next time.â
âYou donât have to,â said the guard. âLionel, youâve been protecting Ms. Olson for years. Now that sheâs returning to Jubilife, you should request to be transferred back, too!â
The guards collectively thought it was a waste of Lionelâs talents to only be protecting Victoria.
âLionel, weâre all waiting for your return!â
Hearing his words, Lionel became thoughtful. He replied, âIâll think about it. Thank you all for remembering me.â
After several exchanges, Lionel hung up.
When Lionel was first sent to protect Victoria, he had the same thoughts as the others. He thought it was a waste of his talents to protect a woman. But now, Lonel was willing to stay by Victoria, continuing to protect her.
At the thought of Victoria, Lionelâs gaze became gentle. But soon after, he received a text notifying him that Serena had been arrested.
Immediately, Lionelâs facial expression became grim.
âSerena, that idiot! Sheâs useless,â he thought.
Lionel gripped his phone tightly. He had to find a way to help the Sutton family bail Serena out. After all, Lionel needed Serena as a weapon against Yvette. He wanted Yvetteâs reputation to be ruined, and for her to be rejected by Martha.
It was too early for Serena to be rendered useless.
