Chapter 169 Out Of Line
Julius pursed his lips. “I’ll go.”
“What?” Quinn was taken aback. “You’re going to be ‘it‘?”
“That’s right.”
Quinn couldn’t imagine Julius, of all people, playing tag with the kids. He just didn’t seem the type.
But to her shock, Julius was being completely serious. He even bent down and said to Minnie, “Ms. Bridger hurt her arm, so I will play with you instead!”
After saying that, Julius took off his suit jacket, removed his tie, unbuttoned his cuffs, and rolled up his sleeves.
A few moments later, Quinn saw Julius running across the lawn, playing “it” while a group of kids ran around him.
He looked nothing like his usual cold and distant self. Instead, he looked like a carefree young man just enjoying the moment.
Everyone there, especially those who knew Julius‘ status, was stunned by the scene.
No way!
That’s Mr. Whitethorn? The man known as the one you simply can’t mess with in Jexburgh?
And anyone who crosses him ends up in a bad way?
But now, he’s playing with the kids. This must be a dream!
Quinn couldn’t stop smiling as she watched. The more time she spent with Julius, the more she saw how different he was from what she’d thought.
She pulled out her phone to take a few quick photos of him.
Just as she was about to put it away, a sudden thought crossed her mind. She opened her browser and started searching for information about the co–pilot who died in the fire five years ago.
It had been ruled that the fire was caused by his smoking. Even though he had already passed away, the internet had heavily criticized him, and his family had suffered a lot because of the backlash.
At the time, Nimbus Air had even paid a lot of money to cover up the story.
If the man really did cause the fire that killed him, maybe that was karma. But still, she wondered what Sidonie was hiding.
Just then, Sidonie’s voice abruptly rang out. “Quinn, were you the one who sent those nasty, hateful messages?”
