The divorced military queen awakens novel

Chapter 12 Nothing Extraordinary No one expected that Quinn would actually mount the horse. Everyone watched, dumbfounded by the scene unfolding before them. They saw Quinn expertly tighten the reins, lean forward, and firmly grip the horse's belly with her legs, urging the horse into a gallop. Judging by the way Quinn handled the horse, anyone could tell that her horsemanship was exceptional. J Trent was completely taken aback. He had never imagined that Quinn could actually ride a horse.

The sight of her on horseback filled him with a sense of unfamiliarity. Although she was his wife of three years, he was unaware of her horsemanship. Her raven hair was billowing in the wind, making her appear so fearless, just like a true warrior. Similarly, Sidonie, nestled in Trent's arms, couldn't believe it either. How could Quinn possibly know how to ride a horse? Moreover, she has even mounted such a fiery steed !

In her heart, Sidonie was fervently hoping that Quinn would be thrown off the horse. To her disappointment, Quinn was not thrown off as she had expected. Instead, after a few rounds, the fiery horse seemed to have been tamed, unbelievably starting to heed Quinn's commands. When Quinn safely returned on her black horse, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Quinn had tamed the horse. The horse came to a halt, and Quinn dismounted. Trent was still reeling from shock.

"W-When did you learn to ride a horse?" "Does it matter?" Quinn asked coldly. Trent was speechless. Sidonie was nestled in Trent's arms when Quinn's gaze landed on her. "Galloping on a horse isn't that impressive. However, if your galloping is just to attract men's attention, then our aims are indeed quite different!" Quinn said. After she had finished speaking, she handed over the reins she was holding to a staff member nearby. The color of Sidonie's face fluctuated between red and white.

Quinn's words felt like a harsh slap to her face. She had shown contempt toward Quinn, but Quinn had returned the favor. Ironically, Quinn had tamed the horse, leaving her unable to utter a single word of rebuttal. At that moment, Laura rushed to Quinn's side, anxiously checking on her friend. "How are you doing? Are you hurt?" she asked with concern. "I'm fine," Quinn said with a smile. Upon hearing that, Laura finally let out a sigh of relief. "You really scared me to death earlier.

Not only did you rush over to save Julius, but you also tamed the horse. Do you have any idea how dangerous it could've been if something had gone wrong? You could have lost your life right here!" "I certainly wouldn't die so easily," Quinn reassured her friend. "Besides, given the circumstances just now, if I hadn't done something, someone might have really ended up dead here." Laura sighed after hearing those words.

Even though Quinn had already retired from the military, the ingrained sense of duty she held as a soldier still made her unhesitatingly protect the safety of others. Meanwhile, Hugh arrived before Julius, drenched in sweat. "Mr. Whitethorn, I sincerely apologize. I never anticipated that this horse wasn't fully tamed yet, causing such an incident. It's fortunate you're unharmed.

Otherwise, the Stonehurst famil 320 PM Chapter 12 Nothing Extraordinary would be utterly doomed." +5 Free Coins "The Stonehurst family deserves to perish," said Julius indifferently. "Had it not been for Ms. Bridger's unexpected intervention just now, the Stonehurst family would have disappeared without a trace from Jexburgh within three months." A chill ran down Hugh's spine. "In that case, shouldn't the Stonehurst family be expressing their gratitude to Ms. Bridger?" Julius asked. "Oh, yes!

The Stonehurst family will definitely express our gratitude to Ms. Bridger," Hugh repeatedly assured. Ignoring Hugh, Julius headed straight toward Quinn. "Ms. Bridger." Julius stood before Quinn and said, "Did you know? If you hadn't rushed to save me, this horse would have been shot and collapsed on the ground within the next second." Quinn was momentarily taken aback, but she quickly understood it.

For someone like Julius, it was only natural to have bodyguards lurking in the shadows, ready to swiftly neutralize any threats that might arise. "Mr. Whitethorn, are you criticizing me for being a busybody?" Quinn asked. "No, Ms. Bridger. You saved me, so I naturally owe you something in return. However, I'm unsure what kind of repayment you would prefer, Ms. Bridger," said Julius. As soon as those words were spoken, the people around looked at Quinn with a mix of envy and jealousy.

"I don't need that!" Quinn declined. "Well, what if I insist on repaying you?" Julius took a step forward, closing the distance with Quinn. His towering figure exuded an overwhelming presence. Quinn pursed her lips. Not wanting to get entangled with Julius on that issue, she said, "If you really want to repay, why not donate to build an Operation Hope Elementary School?" With that, Quinn took Laura's hand and left. Julius raised his eyebrows slightly. An Operation Hope Elementary School ?

The reward she wants is indeed unexpected ! However , it's quite interesting . From Trent's embrace, Sidonie glared resentfully at Quinn's retreating figure, fighting against the pain coursing through her body. "She's just putting on airs. Quinn's only trying to leave a good impression on Julius. She never considered your feelings.

If she truly cared about you, she would have used that opportunity to get the Whitethorn family to invest in your company." The moment those words fell, a flicker of thought passed through Trent's eyes, as if he was contemplating something. Trent only got back to his mansion past nine in the evening. He accompanied Sidonie to the hospital for a thorough examination. Fortunately, despite falling off a horse and sustaining numerous scrapes and bruises, Sidonie had not suffered any broken bones.

That was why he only returned late into the night. Upon seeing Quinn, Trent took the initiative to explain, "I didn't mean to not accompany you to pay respects to Dad and Mom today. It's just that Sidonie informed me at the last minute that Julius was at the equestrian club. I went there with Sidonic for the sake of the company." "It's okay," said Quinn nonchalantly. Regardless of the explanations Trent offered, she no longer cared. "How about this?

I'll accompany you to pay respects to Dad and Mom tomorrow, okay?" Trent suggested. Quinn turned down the suggestion, saying, "That's unnecessary." 2/3 Chapter 12 Nothing Extraordinary *Bur- +5 Free Coins "There's really no need for that. I know you're busy with work," said Quinn. She had decided not to let Trent disturb her parents' peace anymore. Upon hearing that, Trent did not persist any further. Indeed, he had been quite busy during that period.

Especially when Sidonie needed to be hospitalized for a few days, he had to shuttle back and forth to the hospital to take care of her. "All right, then. If the opportunity arises, I'll accompany you to pay respects to Dad and Mom in the future," Trent said. Quinn sneered inwardly when she heard that. What a pity , Trent . You'll never get the chance again ! After a moment, Trent uttered, "By the way, you mentioned at the equestrian club today that you're an employee of Azure Technologies.

What's that about? "Well, it means exactly that. I've joined Azure Technologies," said Quinn. "You really didn't have to go out of your way to annoy me," Trent said. "You're always welcome to return to the company." Feeling baffled, Quinn chuckled. "I didn't join Azure Technologies to annoy you, and I certainly don't plan on returning to the company." Trent frowned. "I've already said that you can come back anytime.

What else do you want?" "What do you want me to do back at the company?" Quinn retorted. "Continue pushing the project forward, of course," Trent said. "Whitethorn Group wants to invest in a tech company specializing in drones. You can take charge of the project we initiated before." "What about Jacinda? Isn't she in charge of that project?" Quinn questioned. "I can arrange for Jacinda to do other work." Quinn then looked at Trent with a cold gaze and asked, "So, do you think Julius would feel obliged to invest in your company if I were in charge of the project because I saved him at the equestrian club today?" A flicker of embarrassment crossed Trent's face because he had just been figured out.
