Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 148 First Sign Of Fishiness

Shannon had her head lowered as she chose among the tie clips. She was prepared to spend big as it was a branded shop.

I had never met that woman before, but I recognized the man to be Quinn.

With that, I immediately pulled Shannon and ran out of the shop even though she was in the middle of picking the tie clip. I wanted to confirm what I saw.

From what I knew, Quinn was indeed a playboy.

Just then, Shannon stopped. She refused to continue running. “Liliana, what are you doing? Why did you pull me out of the shop? I haven’t done picking.”

I responded with a displeased tone. “I just saw Quinn with another woman. He had his arms wrapped around her shoulder and they were utterly intimate.”

“Huh? Are you sure it was him? Where are they now?” Shannon looked around in disbelief.

But to my disappointment, there was no sign of Quinn anymore no matter where I looked.

I let out a sigh. “We’ve lost him. But Shannon, I know what I saw. Quinn is really not a good man. Right, why don’t you call him now and ask where he is? Say that you want to look for him. Let’s see how he’ll respond.”

After hesitating for a while, Shannon took out her phone and made the call.

After she hung up the phone, I immediately asked, “So? What did he say?”

“He says he’s busy and he’s in the middle of a meeting.”

A meeting? I did not know why but I felt skeptical as soon as I heard that word.

“So be it, then. But you have to trust me because there’s something wrong. Please keep an eye on him. I’ll try to find out tonight.”
