Chapter 1310


    Although she was in herte twenties, Quinn maintained her excellent figure. Donning a seductive


    fishtail skirt, she slowly approached Alec.”Alec, even if you don’t like me anymore, there’s no need to


    avoid me.”


    “Avoiding you? I’m busy,” Alec said, ncing at her without a trace of emotion in his eyes. To him,


    Quinn was just someone he used to know, not someone he was ever close with.


    “Are you really that busy? You seem quite free to me,” novelebook Quinn lightlyughed, covering her


    mouth. She made herself at home and took a seat on the sofa.

    “I can’t help you with that,” Alec said, refusing her outright. “Take care of your own matters. I’m just an


    acquaintance, not your father.”


    “Alec, are you afraid your wife would get jealous if you got too close to me? ” Quinn asked,ughing as


    if she was mocking Alec for being henpecked.


    Alec didn’t think that was anything to be ashamed about. Hence, he didn’t deny it. “Since you know it,


    you shouldn’t havee here. If it makes Jenny angry, novel.ebook you can’t ever make up for it, no


    matter how hard you try.”


    “Alec, how can you be so heartless? You used to like me,” Quinn said, pretending to be hurt. When he


    used to like her, he had never protected her like that.


    With no regard for what she had to say, Alec said, “You said it yourself.


    That was in the past. It’s been many years, and it’s over.”


    “Alright, let’s not talk about the past. But I really need your help.” Quinn stopped smiling. If Alec didn’t


    help her, she had no other way.


    Alec felt a headacheing on. “How do you want me to help you?”


    “Help me out with that man. I’ve been by his side for so many years-l should do something about him,”


    Quinn said, examining her pretty nails while speaking to Alec.


    Alec was speechless. “What do you want to do?”


    “Well, I want him to marry me. At this age, I can’t continue being with him without getting married.”


    Plus, everyone around her was getting married. Even Alec, who she thought would never marry, was


    getting married. Hence, it was only natural that she had the desire to get married.


    Finding her words amusing, Alec snorted in disdain. novelebook “If you want him to marry you, just tell


    him directly. There’s no need to look for me.”


    “That won’t work. Even if I tell him directly, he won’t marry me. He doesn’t even realize the possibility of


    losing me, so I have to make him aware of that.”


    Alec had once liked her, and that person was aware of it. That’s why she thought that bying to


    Alec, she could get that man to feel threatened.


    Unfortunately, Alec didn’t want to get involved. “I can’t help you. I’m getting married and don’t have the


    energy to participate in your charade.”


    “Alec-“


    “Quinn,” Alec interrupted her, “just because I was willing to help you before and give you a ce to stay


    doesn’t mean I still like you. I did that because I felt obligated to do so, as were once ssmates. Do


    you understand?”


    His words were harsh, leaving Quinn no room for negotiation. It made her feel sad. “Alright, I


    understand.”


    “Perfect. If there’s nothing else, don’t look for me again. If others see us together, they might assume


    we have some kind of rtionship,’ Alec said, reminding her again.


    Although Quinn found his behavior heartless, she also envied Jenny. What an amazing person must


    she be to receive such undivided affection from Alec?
