Rodney let out a cold snort and said nothing more.

Plenty of people around could not help but be shocked–Quinton was really something else. After all, Rodney was usually wild and arrogant, never caring about anyone, but Quinton shut him right down with just a few words.

Now, that was what you called true dominance,

Christina leaned toward Quinton and whispered gratefully, “Thank you, Mr. Wright, for stepping in.”

Quinton flashed a charming smile and replied, “It’s nothing. Since you’ve already decided to join me for the development project in Blumedale, you’ll be under my care from now on. Naturally, I have to keep you well protected.”

His words were laced with an obvious flirtation, like a possessive man doting on his favorite girl.

Christina did not say anything, but Quinton was secretly feeling very pleased with himself.

He believed a true master never showed all his cards and had no doubt he would win Christina over eventually. There was no rush–when the time came, the famous Ice Queen would melt on her own and give herself to him completely.

Off to the side, Shawn watched with a bitter mix of envy and frustration. He had been lusting after Christina for a while, but now it was clear that Quinton had his eye on her too.

That meant Shawn’s little fantasy was nothing more than wishful thinking. The more he thought about it, the more bitter he felt.

Nonetheless, that bitterness quickly turned into a burning hatred toward Andrew. He thought if he could bring down Andrew, Quinton would be pleased. Then, once Quinton got bored of Christina–because guys like him always did he would probably be generous enough to toss her his way.

Shawn figured that would not be so bad.

Meanwhile, Natasha rolled her eyes and said impatiently, “Mr. Wright, you’ve been talking for a while now, but when are you actually going to get to the point?”

Quinton let out a light laugh and responded politely, “Madam Vostokoff, no need to be anxious. Forgive me for the delay–let’s get started.”

However, Natasha felt disgusted by his fake smile. With her experience, she could spot a player a mile away.
