Nathan, despite his accustomed composure, suddenly found himself at a loss for words. He had weathered many storms in his life, accustomed to others addressing him with deference as "Mr. Lott." He had countless admirers, all eager to please him.
He had led a relatively charmed life, but he hadn't anticipated encountering Tyrone, this audacious young man who defied all logic, publicly humiliating him over a woman. Despite boiling with rage and wanting to tear Tyrone a new one, Nathan knew he was outmatched. Even with his reputation dragged through the mud, he had no choice but to bite his tongue.
Tyrone scanned the crowd, his tone icy, “Whoever dares to mess with Quintessa in the future, better think twice. You won’t stand a chance against me.”
Seizing the moment, Tyrone made it clear that Quintessa was his woman.
Whatever schemes they had in mind, whether it was pursuing her or plotting against her, they needed to consider whether they had the ability to challenge him.
Quintessa’s heart trembled slightly. Whatever the reason, Tyrone's willingness to openly confront both her and the Lott family. While he was arrogant, it marked the first time someone had defended her like this.
Apart from Tyrone, no one else had ever stood up for her like this, taking her side when she faced trouble.
Suddenly feeling a pinch at her waist, Quintessa was snapped back to reality by Tyrone’s gruff voice, “Stop daydreaming. Let’s go.”
Quintessa looked up and offered Nathan a fleeting smile, “Goodbye, Mr. Lott.”
Tyrone frowned as he thought there was no need for Quintessa to talk to the Lotts.
With one swift motion, Tyrone dragged Quintessa away.
He had arrived swiftly and departed just as quickly, swaggering with Quintessa in his arms, leaving the Lott family to face the mocking glances of the crowd.
