Female Novel
Chapter 2856
When she first met Julian, her heart beat faster and she would drift into daydreams upon seeing him.
As time went by and they became closer, interactions with him were no different from those with her
fellow coaches. When alone with Julian, everything felt natural; her heart did not race, and there were
no more wandering thoughts.
She thought the relationship with Julian was more of a camaraderie between brothers.
She never expected Julian to express his love for her.
Quinn felt her face heating up.
She touched her face and even gave it a light pat, muttering to herself, “Quinn, are you feeling shy? Is
it because a man said he likes you, and now you’re all fluttery? Stay calm, stay calm.”
Julian would not worry about future domestic violence issues as her previous blind dates did. After all,
he was a formidable martial artist himself, capable of defeating Will.
She was no match for Will.
If Julian could beat him, it meant his skills exceeded hers. What was there to worry about? On the
contrary, she should worry a bit. In future arguments or even fights with Julian, she might be the one to
lose, pressed down vigorously against the ground by him.
Quinn got up from the bed, moved to the vanity, and looked at herself in the mirror.
As she continued observing, a confident smile emerged. She said to herself, “Not bad looking at all,
Julian has good taste.”
The question lingered though, were she and Julian suitable for each other?
He was the CEO of a large company, hailing from a wealthy family, and surrounded by affluent people.
Although the Crawford family was considered well-off in Summervale, the disparity was significant
when compared to the Bucham family.
Quinn worried that Julian might be attracted to her novelty, unlike ordinary girls. Once the novelty wore
off, he might develop affection for other women.
There was a saying, “Wealth makes a man bad, and women become rich when they go astray.”
Julian was wealthy and handsome, and when he treated someone well, he did it so wholeheartedly. It
was easy for a woman to completely fall for him.
Quinn’s emotions gradually calmed down.
She decided to observe first and then talk to her parents about it. Her parents were experienced,
having gone through way more than she had. If they trusted Julian to be steadfast, and that he was
sincere, then she could confidently have a relationship with him, with marriage in mind.
After all, it was not easy for her to encounter a man who was not afraid of potential domestic violence.
She had to seize the opportunity. In case she missed her chance with Julian, she would truly end up
being an old spinster for a lifetime, and her mother would nag at her endlessly.
Knock, knock.
The sound of knocking echoed.
“Quinn, are you feeling better? Are you okay?”
Zoey brought a cup of hot chocolate upstairs. “I made hot chocolate for you, drink up.”
Quinn got up to open the door, saying, “Mom, the hot chocolate you made is so concentrated, I bet you
used up the whole packet.”
After opening the door, she still took the cup from Zoey.
Without needing a taste test, one could tell how rich the chocolate drink must be by looking at its
consistency.
No matter how big the cup was, Zoey would add more than enough chocolate to match.
“The weather’s cold, and you’re on your period. What’s wrong with drinking some hot chocolate?
What’s so bad about it being rich and creamy? I don’t hear you complaining when you drink chocolate
milkshakes. Why don’t you complain about its richness then?
Quinn replied, “Alright, alright, I’ll drink it. I won’t mind the richness.”
When it came to her mother, Quinn could only surrender.
The whole family bore the Crawford last name, except for one, and they were all in the palms of the
one whose last name was not a Crawford.novelbin
It was all because her father was a henpecked husband.
