Chapter 2445
Upon giving it some thought, Julian agreed with Quinn. He said, “Being honest with the person you love
is crucial. Thank you, Ms. Crawford. I’ll talk to my friend and tell him not to keep a secret anymore.”
Quinn smiled. “You don’t have to thank me. I was just sharing my thoughts. Everyone has differing
opinions. There may be people who think lying is acceptable. Some of them are used to living in a lie.
“You can talk to your friend. If he doesn’t accept your suggestion, you don’t have to continue
persuading him. You can't wake a person who is pretending to be asleep.”
Julian felt awkward.
What would Quinn think of him if he were to tell her the truth?
He needed her to discover his true identity in the most natural way possible. He could explain
everything to her afterward.
Upon finishing his breakfast, Julian felt much better.
Quinn asked, “Do you need more rest, Mr. Bucham?”
“It’s almost noon. I think I’ll head out for a stroll instead, and only take a nap afterward. My head
doesn’t hurt as much anymore.”
Quinn said, “Let’s go shopping then. I promised the kids that I’d bring them souvenirs. That bunch of
rascals are always asking for presents.”
Despite her choice of words, her tone was filled with affection.
She liked spoiling her students.
“Okay.”
Julian was more than happy to go shopping with Quinn, and shopping they went. For someone who
rarely shopped, Julian went with Quinn.
They chose to walk over to a street near the hotel instead of driving. On their way, they heard someone
screaming for help during a robbery.
Julian thought he had misheard.
How could there be robbery in broad daylight? Were there no security cameras everywhere?
Even if the robber succeeded, they could not escape once the police were involved. They would be
apprehended sooner or later.
Julian and Quinn looked in the direction where the sound came from. They saw a towering mannovelbin
running at full speed with a bag in hand. Behind him was a woman who was chasing after him while
yelling for help. She was in heels and could not run as quickly. There was a high risk of her getting hurt
too.
Sure enough, she twisted her ankle and fell.
Quinn immediately left Julian and ran toward the robber.
When she approached him, she picked up her pace all of a sudden and launched herself into a flying
kick.
The man avoided her kick and glared at her viciously. Upon noticing that she was a woman, he could
not care less and launched a kick in her direction.
At the same time, Quinn attempted another kick, and their feet clashed mid-air. Before the man could
react, Quinn continued her attacks and stretched her hand to snatch back the bag.
“Fuck!”
The man had been anxious after having committed a robbery and was furious that a nosy woman was
blocking his way. He then gradually realized that she was trained.
Suddenly, he took out a knife and charged at Quinn.
