Mandy jumped up, furious. “I saw what happened! You bumped into the server, and that’s why the food spilled!”

The girl looked shocked, as if she couldn’t believe Quinlyn had noticed but hadn’t said anything. She quickly regained her composure. “It’s crowded in here. It was an accident. Why are you looking at me like that? Are you going to hit me or something?”

She struggled to break free from Quinlyn’s grip, but Quinlyn was stronger. “Ow! Help, she’s attacking me!” the girl shouted, bending down and reaching for something on the table.

Quinlyn was faster. She grabbed a fork before the girl could. “Looking for this?” she asked, holding it up. The girl froze, clearly embarrassed.

Quinlyn pressed the fork against the girl’s side. “Let’s go outside. Mandy, wait here for me.”

Mandy was still confused but hesitated to call her bodyguards. By the time she decided, Quinlyn and the girl were already crossing the street.

Quinlyn nodded calmly. “Yeah, I also have a knife in my pocket.” ‘So, the one who needs to behave isn’t me, she thought. The girl was speechless.

They stopped in front of a black car. The window rolled down, revealing the face of a young man who looked both annoyed and resigned.

“It’s not my fault. She saw through me right away and was just waiting for me to make a move,” the girl complained. She’d heard Quinlyn was tough, but experiencing it firsthand was something else.
