Chapter 89 What Could He Possibly Be Jealous Of

After the meal, Laura felt like she’d lost a few years of her life.

Julius stood up and said to Quinn, “Let’s go.”

“Okay,” Quinn responded. After all, they had an agreement. While in Yarburn, once her personal matters were handled, she’d spend the remaining time ensuring his safety.

“Laura, you and Harlan…” Quinn turned to say a few words to her friends, but was suddenly pulled aside by Harlan.

“Quinnie, where are you staying? Let me take you back,” he said.

“She’s staying with me now. There’s no need for you to see her off, Mr. Ingram.” Julius stepped forward and clasped Harlan’s wrist. “Mr. Ingram, are you planning to let go or not?”

Harlan’s lips tightened into a line as he glared at Julius. “And what if I don’t?”

“Then if your wrist ends up broken, don’t blame me,” Julius replied coolly.

Harlan let out a cold laugh. “You think you can?”

The atmosphere between the two men immediately grew tense again.

“Enough!” Quinn suddenly yanked her hand free from Harlan’s fingers and then pulled Julius‘ hand off Harlan’s wrist.

She looked up and said sternly to Julius, “Don’t lay a hand on my friend. Or I won’t let it slide.”

Then she turned to Harlan. “Right now, I’m working as Julius‘ bodyguard for a while, so I’m staying with him.”

Harlan was stunned. “Bodyguard? Did he threaten you?”

“No,” she said.

“But why?”

“I can’t say.” Just three words, but enough for Harlan to understand.

It has to be a classified mission of some sort. That’s why she can’t tell me.

“Fine, I won’t ask. Tomorrow’s your parents‘ burial. I’ll wait for you outside the Bridger’s family ancestral hall,” Harlan said.

“Sure,” Quinn agreed.

Just as she was about to turn and leave with Julius, Harlan suddenly rushed up and hugged her from

behind.

“What is it?” Quinn was startled.

Chapter 89 What Could He Possibly Be Jealous Of

“I just realized you’re still the same. You’ll always protect the people you care about, Harlan murmured

Watching her stand up to Julius for him just now had brought back a memory. When he was younger siek with a high fever, barely conscious, she carried him through blocked snowy roads.

“Don’t worry, we’ll be at the hospital soon. I won’t let anything happen to you!” she reassured him, speaking as she ran.

At that time, he was in a daze. The weather was freezing, yet his heart felt warm, as if something was gushing from within.

And now, Harlan’s lips moved softly, but his voice was firm. “Quinnie, if you’re ever in trouble, I’ll go to the end of the world to help you.”

If Julius turned out to be her trouble, even if he was the head of the Whitethorn family, Harlan would do whatever it took to take him down.

“I’m not in any trouble. Don’t worry,” Quinn said, ruffling his hair. “Okay, I’ve got to go!”

Jealousy?

A man like Julius Whitethorn, privileged, powerful, and favored by everyone, what could he possibly be jealous of? I must’ve imagined it!
