My Super Sassy Dad: Stop Running Away, Mrs. Quinn!-Chapter 223: The Secret from Years Ago

Jared Quinn’s deep and cold gaze turned imperceptibly more dangerous as he sat down, placing his large hand on her back, the warmth in his palm somewhat scorching.

"President," Simon Sutton suddenly entered from outside.

"What’s the matter?" Jared Quinn coldly questioned.

"N-nothing," Simon Sutton’s eyelid twitched, but he was still forced to remind him, "There’s a meeting this afternoon. Didn’t you say you would take the young lady somewhere?"

"Where are you taking me?" Melody Thorne moved the large hand placed on her back and climbed up from the sofa.

Jared Quinn, not looking very pleased, stood up, "You’ll know when we get there. Put on your shoes."

Melody Thorne looked at the man who suddenly changed his expression, unsure what she had done to provoke him again.

In a lavishly decorated bar, which should have been full, it was empty at the moment. This appeared to be one of Jared Quinn’s bars, so it shouldn’t be lacking patrons.

"The place isn’t open today," Jared Quinn explained, reading her thoughts.

No wonder.

In the luxurious suite at the top, Simon Sutton opened the door, and Melody Thorne followed Jared Quinn inside.

The lighting inside was dim; she saw four men sitting on the sofa in the suite, each holding several beautiful women, surrounded by a slightly oppressive smoke.

When she managed to clearly see those four men, her expression froze momentarily; she remembered these four men were Jared Quinn’s brothers. One was skilled in medicine, another was the leader of a secret army, yet another was Jared Quinn’s own younger brother, Titus Quinn, a dangerous individual, and the last was Harold Chapman.

She recalled, in the past life, Titus Quinn for some unknown reason turned against Jared Quinn, revealing all his secrets to the public and attempting to eliminate him from the Quinn Family, leaving him disgraced.

This person... brothers turned adversaries.

Moreover, these individuals rarely meet. Their camaraderie is monopolistic over the entire economic lifeline here, ensuring that they meet only for crucial matters to avoid leverage.

"Is this the little sister-in-law? Jared, you’re really good at hiding. You married her over a year ago and are only bringing her to meet us now," Leon Rivers’ gaze fell on Melody Thorne, scrutinizing her from top to bottom.

Big eyes, nice figure, quite beautiful and pure in appearance, but these are traits women should have anyhow. What’s so special about her?

He had heard that Jared Quinn had recently been betrayed by this woman, and they as brothers laughed for several days upon hearing this.

"Indeed, Jared, not very generous of you, finally bringing the little sister-in-law out after so long," Cole O’Connell chimed in.

Upon hearing Cole O’Connell’s voice, Melody Thorne turned her head and glanced a few times, her eyes brightening; she had a good impression of Cole O’Connell because, in the previous life, this man had even helped her.

It’s just unfortunate that a woman around him led him to a point of no return.

Maybe she should find an opportunity to warn him?

"Seeing her is a privilege for you," Jared Quinn sneered coldly, not even glancing at his brothers.

"Sister-in-law," Titus Quinn spoke from across the room, sitting in a corner, appearing somewhat gloomy.

Melody Thorne responded faintly, meeting Titus Quinn’s gaze, feeling it contained infinite conspiracy, making her deeply uncomfortable; this person was too deeply hidden.

"I heard that sister-in-law seems to have some misunderstanding with Jared, is it because of Timmy?" Normally, men like Jared Quinn would rarely have women care about their children, eager to become Timmy’s mother.

But it seems that, judging from Melody Thorne’s willingness to exchange Jared Quinn, she does care.

"What’s the matter with Timmy?" Melody Thorne’s heart skipped, tightening her grip.

She had a premonition she would learn the secret from years ago.
