My Super Sassy Dad: Stop Running Away, Mrs. Quinn!-Chapter 312: Never Leaving the Bed for a Lifetime

"Maybe you said the same thing while flirting with someone else."

"Is that how you see me?" Jared Quinn’s face was clouded with an impending storm.

"Isn’t it true?" Melody Thorne sneered, "Aren’t you doing the same thing to Sheryl Lancaster now? You could clearly let her get engaged to Caleb and keep her away, but instead, you brought her into your company and keep giving her mixed signals, making her obsessed with you?"

A truly cheeky mouth that needs a lesson, Jared Quinn thought.

"Do you think she came to me just to climb into my bed?" Jared Quinn braced his arms on either side of her. "Aren’t you most concerned about Timmy? Haven’t you considered that she might be here because of Timmy, or because of the position of Mrs. Quinn?"

Melody Thorne "..."

After seeing the Lancaster family’s press conference and the news, she had already guessed that Sheryl Lancaster probably learned something from Ivy and used the situation with Timmy to get close to Jared Quinn.

She was also thinking about how to stop Sheryl Lancaster, but now it seemed that Jared Quinn no longer needed her intervention.

"Shouldn’t you be happy she’s interested in you and Timmy? Maybe her blood matches Timmy’s, maybe she’s Timmy’s biological mother?" Melody Thorne asked.

Jared Quinn stared at her, "Even if she is Timmy’s mother, it won’t shake your position as Mrs. Quinn. Put away those thoughts of leaving, remember what I said? Hm? If you run away, I promise you’ll never get out of bed for the rest of your life."

Melody Thorne "... And if she is, how will you treat her?"

It was a strange question because Sheryl Lancaster simply wasn’t, and would never be.

Jared Quinn paused for a second, "A villa, an endless credit card, a bunch of bodyguards."

Melody Thorne "..."

"Imprisonment?"

"Timmy is the little prince of the Quinn Group, the future heir of the Quinn Corporation. Anyone confirmed to be connected to him must be isolated from the world. They must never bring disgrace to him. If confirmed as the biological mother, they must be prepared never to disgrace him for life," Jared Quinn explained word by word.

Especially the Quinn Family, they absolutely would not allow any filthy scandal hanging over them.

"Isn’t that still imprisonment?"

"Yes."

Melody Thorne licked her dry lips, feeling a bit faint. She had never thought it would be imprisonment?

Doesn’t it mean never having a chance for freedom in life?

"But how can you be sure she is?" Melody Thorne continued to ask.

Jared Quinn didn’t intend to hide it from her, "According to Leon Rivers, she has a scar on her belly."

Melody Thorne instinctively covered her stomach. A few years ago, when she saved Jared Quinn, Ivy impersonated her and told her Jared Quinn disliked women with scars on their bellies.

So, she bought a lot of scar-removal cream and even underwent scar-removal surgery. The scars had essentially disappeared, with only a tiny bit remaining, but no one would notice unless they knew what to look for.

"Whew," Melody Thorne breathed a sigh of relief, ducking under his arm and quickly walking ahead. "We... we should head back, right?"

"Melody Thorne," Jared Quinn followed her closely. "If given the chance, would you leave?"

"Leave, why wouldn’t I!"

"Melody Thorne!" came a furious shout from behind.

Melody Thorne quickly ran forward, but she had just taken two steps when her waist was gripped by an unyielding force, lifting her almost off the ground. In her ear was the arrogant and angry voice of a man, "My Five Finger Mountain isn’t something you can escape just because you say so."

Melody Thorne "!!!"
