A Rose 307


    Yvette helplessly said, “But it’s me…”


    “Okay, I have to go now, Yvie! Otherwise, Sean will realize something’s off. Keep the gift!”


    Then, Jasper forcefully gave Yvette the gift and left in a hurry. He couldn’t 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 guard’s report.


    “Mr. Quinn, we just received word from Ms. Olson. She wishes to study at Jubilife University.”


    Hearing that, Wilson said inly, “Tell her to stay at the hospital and focus on her treatment.”


    The guard was hesitant, but he said, “Mr. Quinn, Ms. Olson has always been very gifted in art. If it


    weren’t for her poor health, she would’ve made great achievements in the field. Also, Ms. Olson


    really wants to pick up painting again.”

    He continued when he was met with silence, “Mr. Quinn, Ms. Olson’s health has improved a lot.


    Please grant her wish this one time!”


    Narrowing his eyes, Wilson’s gaze was intimidating. The guard was terrified.


    Then, Wilson said, “You can arrange for her enrollment into Jubilife University.”


    “Got it, Mr. Quinn!” The guard promptly answered and then left the room. He called Lionel to tell him


    about the news.


    “Mr. Quinn agreed,” the guard said, still somewhat shaken by Wilson’s earlier gaze. “Lionel, I took a


    huge risk to put a good word in for you!”


    Before Lionel was sent abroad to protect Victoria, he was the captain of the guards. Lionel had a


    good rtionship 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, “Thanks. I owe you one. I’ll buy you a meal next time.”


    “You don’t have to,” said the guard. “Lionel, you’ve been protecting Ms. Olson for years. Now that


    she’s returning to Jubilife, you should request to be transferred back, too!”


    The guards collectively thought it was a waste of Lionel’s talents to only be protecting Victoria.


    “Lionel, we’re all waiting for your return!”


    Hearing his words, Lionel became thoughtful. He replied, “I’ll think about it. Thank you all for


    remembering me.”


    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, Lionel’s gaze became gentle. But soon after, he received a text notifying


    him that Serena had been arrested.


    Immediately, Lionel’s facial expression became grim.


    “Serena, that idiot! She’s useless,” he thought.


    2/2


    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 Yvette’s reputation to be ruined,


    and for her to be rejected by Martha.


    It was too early for Serena to be rendered useless.
