Chapter 1221

As Lydia stared at Quincy with questioning eyes, his usual calm demeanor cracked slightly, revealing a trace of pain.

He turned his head away, avoiding her gaze. "Your parents are right," he said quietly. "They're just looking out for you. I'm just an assistant. I can't give you the life you deserve." "You don't really believe that! If you did, why can't you even look me in the eye?"

"Lydia..."

"Look me in the eye and tell me it's over. If you can't do that, I won't believe a word you say."

With that, Lydia walked away.

Not long after she left, Nash returned to his office and found Quincy sitting with his head hung low. "This is the first time I've seen you like this. Didn't go well, did it?"

Quincy forced a bitter smile. "She wants me to look her in the eye and tell her it's over. But I can't do it."

Nash sighed and put a hand on his shoulder. "If that's the case, stop hesitating. If her parents don't think you're good enough, prove them wrong. Start your own company and show them what you're capable of. The Quincy I know doesn't give up so easily." Quincy looked at Nash, feeling a wave of gratitude, and then a new resolve sparked in his eyes. Without wasting another second, he rushed out, determined to find Lydia.
