Chapter 674

Aiden and Abigail blinked their big, innocent eyes and immediately jumped to Mr. Q’s defense.

“Mommy, you must have misunderstood Daddy Q! He’s the most gentle and kind person I’ve ever met besides Daddy Liam! How could he be a bad guy?”

“Abby is right!” Aiden said as he rubbed his chin, a serious expression on his face. “I introduce Mr. Q to you as a husband candidate after careful consideration. You may not believe in my sister’s judgment, but you must believe in my intelligence.”

“Well…” Renee was momentarily speechless.

Disregarding everything else, Aiden’s intelligence was truly unbeatable.

Anyone who passed his assessment was either a super intelligent person who could beat Aiden, or genuinely a good person.

Currently, Mr. Q didn’t seem like a good person at all. That meant his intelligence must be extremely high to have the two little children be so obedient to him.

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe me. Once I kick down this door, you’ll understand my good intentions.”

Renee didn’t want to keep going around in circles and decided to let the facts speak for themselves.

Tightening her fists, she stretched her legs and gathered all her strength before fiercely kicking the door.

As she kicked down the door, she gestured for the two children to back away.

“Back up a little, you two. I don’t know how depraved this villain is. There may be something inappropriate behind this, so it’s best to stay back than risk getting traumatized by anything here!”

The two children were a little scared after hearing her words, and they hid behind Mr. Q and cautiously peeked around him to stare at the door.

Embarrassingly, Renee attacked the door for a long time, but it didn’t even budge a single inch. She was exhausted from her efforts after a while. She couldn’t understand why, as it was only a small wooden door. She should have been able to break it with her strength.

“Are you tired? Do you want to rest for a while?” Mr. Q asked “kindly” as his lips curled up slightly as if he were an outsider detached from this situation.

“Shove that fake kindness away! I can definitely break this door into pieces! ” Renee shot back and wiped away her sweat as she prepared to exert herself again.

Mr. Q suddenly said coldly, “Perhaps it’s best if you save your strength. This door is made of authentic Zambawi birch wood, which is harder than even iron. Even if you kick non-stop until tomorrow, you won’t be able to damage it.”

“So that’s it!” Renee exclaimed, then frowned at the man. “You’re really sick, aren’t you? Choosing this kind of wood as a door to ensure that the people inside wouldn’t have a chance to escape. What kind of illegal things are you doing here? Aren’t you afraid of encountering ghosts at night for doing so many bad things?”

Renee had already imagined a tragic situation of the tortured girls behind this door and was convinced that more than one girl was being held here for torture!

Mr. Q hadn’t refuted any of her accusations either and simply smiled and said, “If you really can’t break it down, you can ask Chase for the key to open it directly.”

“Hah! Drop that innocent act! The evidence of your crimes are hidden inside here. Once it’s opened, your hypocritical act will be up! Do you dare open it?”

“I haven’t done anything wrong, so there’s nothing I wouldn’t dare about it,” Mr. Q replied, then paused before adding, “However, the rule of Carmine Pawnshop is that the restricted area is not a place where one can casually enter. You broke a rule and must be punished.”

Renee, who was in an extremely stubborn mood right now, said, “If you dare open this door, I’m willing to accept the punishment. I’m not unreasonable, after all.”

Mr. Q turned to Chase and said, “Open the door for her.”

“But boss, isn’t it inappropriate to do so? I’m afraid that guy will go crazy and scare the kids…” Chase trailed off, looking toward the door but making no move to approach it.

At the same time, he also thought Mr. Q was acting strange. Why would he indulge this woman so much and let her take charge of the situation like this?

“Hah! Look at that! You’re guilty, aren’t you? I told you something unusual is going on here!”
