Chapter 156
“What a coincidence, Quinton sneered and looked at Jessica. “Where are you going?”
Jessica lowered her head and said nothing.
“She is leaving with me of her own accord. It doesn’t seem to have anything much to do with you.” Charles added fuel to the
fire.
Quinton’s eyes darkened for a moment. He raised his hand and tugged on his tie. “Of your own accord?”
Jessica took a deep breath. Lifting her head, she put on her signature smile. “You came at the wrong time, Mr. Taibbi. I promised to accompany Mr. Larson.”
“Jessical Quinton was furious.
If there’s nothing else, we’ll leave.” Charles held Jessica’s wrist, attempting to take her away.
But as soon as they walked out of the private room, they were stopped by Quinton’s bodyguards.
Charles frowned and looked back at Quinton. “What? Mr. Taibbi, can’t you accept that you lost?”
Josie frowned and looked at Quinton. It was surprising to see Quinton acting in such a manner for a woman. It made people wonder if he had fallen in love with Jessica. However, it was unrealistic for a scum like him to fall in love.
“Charles, I advise you not to mess with me, Quinton said flatly. He was still leaning against the door.
Charles was still holding a grudge against him for the car accident last time. “What can you do if I insist on messing with
you?”
“Quinton!” Seeing that Quinton’s men were about to take action, Jessica hurried forward. “Mr. Taibbi, you didn’t help me leave here either. So, there’s no need for you to be… a subject of criticism.”
Quinton’s eyes were dark. “Subject of criticism? Are you going to draw a line with me?”
“It seems like there’s something going on between Mr. Taibbi and Jessica, Josie uttered. “What’s the point of snatching someone else’s lover, Mr. Larson?”
Since Josie said so, Charles raised his hand. “Okay!”
He just wanted to help Josie test the relationship between Jessica and Quinton and see if Jessica had a special place in Quinton’s heart.
“Since Jessica and Mr. Taibbi know each other, Jet’s leave and not disturb them. Josie looked back at Henry and Samuel. Henry nodded and draped his coat on Josie. It felt like he deliberately did that to show to Quinton and Samuel.
Josie’s body stiffened a little. However, she didn’t refuse it since Quinton was around.
She numbly followed Henry out of Caligo Club. When she walked to the door, she turned to look back at Samuel Samuel was a little far away. She couldn’t see his expression clearly, but his figure looked so lonely that it was scary. Josie quickly turned around. She felt a little uncomfortable.
“Quinton has never been so concerned about a woman. According to the people in Caligo Club, no one dares to ask Jessica to accompany them now. It was because of my presence that the manager had to bring her to us,” Henry said in a low voice

after getting in the car.
Josie was a little absent–minded. As soon as she got in the car, she returned the coat to Henry.
Henry’s hand holding the coat stiffened, and he smiled bitterly. “Is it necessary to draw the line so clearly with me?”
Josie lowered his head and changed the topic. “What do you think of Quinton’s feelings toward Jessica? Is it on a whim or…”
“Quinton is just a naive man who has never suffered much, just like Samuel. Henry frowned.
Josie glared at Henry and wondered why he always found fault with Samuel
“Are you going to be protective of him because of this… Henry uttered bitterly.
“Is Jessica’s identity really as simple as what the investigation showed?” Based on what they found out, Jessica was from a poor family background, and she had to earn money to treat her father’s illness.
“Not necessarily. Henry shook his head.
It was possible that Jessica was arranged to be by Quinton’s side on purpose.
Everyone had left. There were only Jessica and Quinton in the private room of Caligo Club..
Quinton was smoking all the time. The atmosphere in the room was tense, and he didn’t say a word.
Jessica stood at the door. She felt that the room n was a little cold.
Quinton leaned against the couch and was silent for a long time. Standing up, he threw a piece of paper on Jessica’s face before he slammed the door and left.
Jessica froze for a long while. She slowly squatted down and picked up the
paper.
Tears misted over her eyes. She couldn’t believe it. She thought that it was impossible for a rich scum like him to care about.
her.
Yet, out of everyone else, he was the only one who truly cared about her. He… had saved her from Caligo Club.
The paper Quinton threw at her was the unfair contract that Caligo Club had tricked her into signing,
Now that the contract has been terminated, she had nothing to do with Caligo Club anymore.
She could do whatever she wanted to fulfill her dreams.
After that day, Quinton never contacted Jessica again.
He was surrounded by countless women again, but he had never committed to one.
But it was still the same rule. No woman stayed by his side for more than three days.
“Josie, I’ve quit my job at Caligo Club!” Jessica ran to Josie happily in the roadside cafe and said in a low voice, “I won’t go to those places again.”
Josie smiled at Jessica. “All right. I’ll help you deal with the rest. It’s better not to have scandals like this again.”
“Okay.” Jessica nodded. It seemed that she really liked her job with Clusia Media Group.
“Jessica, since you signed a contract with Clusia Media Group, I must make sure your private life is clean. Are you in love? Once you make your debut, there mustn’t be anyone pestering you,” Josie said faintly as she looked at Jessica.

Jessica was stunned for a moment before she shook her head with a smile. “Don’t worry, Josie. I know my
Josie raised her eyebrows and nodded without saying anything.
“Josie, can I go to the company tomorrow to work?” Jessica asked cautiously.
limits.”
“Sure. You can come over tomorrow.” Josie could tell that Jessica seemed to be very eager in wanting to join Clusia Media Group.
Jessica was overjoyed, as if a new hope was rekindled in her heart.
“Let’s go. I’ll take you to the company’s dormitory first. I heard about your family background, so I applied for it on your behalf in advance.”
Jessica bowed gratefully. “Thank you, Josie.”
Josie didn’t say anything. She wondered if they had mistakenly put their focus on Jessica.
Perhaps Quinton really acted on a whim, and he was only interested in Jessica for a while.
Clusia Media Group treated the newcomers very well. The newcomers would stay in Union Apartment, which was extremely safe, and its security measures were also the best of all the apartments in Hofcaster.
The subway station was in front of the entrance of the community, so transportation was very convenient.
“Isn’t that… Before she entered the community, she saw a familiar figure. It was Quinton.
Quinton drove a sports car and parked at the gate of the community. The person accompanying him was a beautiful woma and an online celebrity anchor. She was also an artist in Clusia Media Group. Josie remembered her.
“Quinton, are you going to have dinner tonight?” The woman clung to Quinton’s arm and shook it coquettishly.
Quinton didn’t speak. Obviously, he had seen Jessica and Josie.
Quinton frowned slightly, and his face darkened.
Jessica didn’t look at Quinton, but went closer to Josie’s side.
“Are you scared of him?” Josie asked.
“No, but It’s better to stay away from such a rich man,” Jessica replied.
“But I don’t think you have any intention of staying away from Samuel, Josie uttered.
Jessica was stunned, as if someone had seen through her mind. ‘Mr. Turner is different…
Samuel and Quinton were different.
