Chapter 871 As a woman herself, Quinn completely understood why Evelyn would go as far as stabbing Lucas.
The moment Lucas slapped Evelyn 30 times in front of Daniel, he should have known this day would come. Those slaps didn't just break Evelyn's pride; they destroyed all the love she had for Lucas.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor years, Lucas had relied on Evelyn's help, exploiting her love for him while reaping the benefits of the Hamilton family's wealth and status. It was the foundation that had brought him his success.
During this time, when Lucas sought other women, Evelyn couldn't say a thing. After all, she was a married woman and the lady of the Hamilton family.
Her every word and action represented the Hamilton family. If she ever did anything out of line, the Hamiltons would ensure she suffered pain worse than death.
She was indeed the lady of the Hamilton family, but her love for Lucas was real and lasting. If Lucas had stood his ground when Daniel asked him to slap Evelyn 30 times and hadn't turned on her, he wouldn't have ended up in this situation. Even though she wore a bright smile on her face, Quinn was secretly planning how to escape from Lucas unscathed. A man as despicable as Lucas wasn't someone she could trust to love her for long.
Evelyn was proof enough. She had loved Lucas deeply and provided him with the best resources, but what did she get in return? If Quinn wasn't after his money- and hadn't had a child with him-she would've left the moment she saw his true colors.
After hearing that, Lucas' expression hardened. "Are you siding with that bitch right now? Don't forget your place, Quinn Langston! You're my woman, living the good life withfor years. Hell, even a dog would know its place by now!" With no one else in the hospital room, he felt no need to put on a facade. Dissatisfied with Quinn's response, his expression instantly darkened as he raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face.

Once they get their hands on you, they'll break you!" After slapping her, he flicked his wrist and, feigning nonchalance, grabbed Quinn's chin. "Of course, as long as you behave, I won't let them have you." Quinn bit back the pain and hurriedly plastered a smile on her face.
"You're right, Lucas. Evelyn's just a bitch. I shouldn't have said those things and upset you. I know you only hitbecause you care about me." Her submissiveness immediately pleased Lucas, and his face lit up with a smile. "Alright, I won't hold it against you. Now, go tell the guys outside to hurry up and find Evelyn. We can't let that bitch hurtagain!
"Also, keep an eye on Nadine. If necessary, kidnap her first. We dan e deal with the fallout later."
Quinn nodded, acting unfazed, and walked out of the room. But the m e moment she
turned around, fear flickered in her eyes. The content\isonnovelenglish.net!
