Second Marriage The Billionaire's Planned Love (Quinn and Julian) novel Chapter 299

Chapter 299 Shameless Persistence

“You’re just egging Lucy on,” Quinn said, helpless. “As for whether we’re a match… if anything, I’m the one who isn’t good enough for him.”

“Are you being serious right now?” Jess said. “You’re amazing. There’s no way you’re not good enough for him. As your friend, I won’t let you talk like that.”

Quinn laughed at his seriousness.

“Fine, I’ll stop. Are you working through the holiday?”

Jess answered right away, “I’m off starting today. I don’t go back until the seventh day.”

“We should get together sometime soon.”

“Sure. Let’s invite Lucy too.”

Quinn just remembered Jess hadn’t heard about Lucy’s injury.

“Lucy’s going back home for the holiday. Her family’s keeping her busy, so she might not be free. Let’s just hang out by ourselves for now.”

Jess kn

about Lucy’s background and nodded. “Alright.”

They planned to meet before Christmas Eve.

Back then, Quinn had no idea Julian would be in town.

Lucy definitely had to go home for the holiday, and there was no hiding her injury anymore.

She probably wouldn’t be able to come back until she fully recovered.

Once Quinn and Jess sat down and were about to order, the private room door suddenly swung open.

“Chase?” Quinn stared at him in disbelief. “What are you doing here?”

Chase had someone tail Jess, and had finally waited for him to meet up with Quinn.

As soon as he got the news, he rushed over.

“Quinn, I need to talk to you.”

Quinn was completely fed up with him. “Can you just leave me alone? We’re divorced. Nothing is ever going to happen between us again.”

Jess muttered, “Pathetic.”

“Shut up!” Chase shouted at him. “This has nothing to do with you!”

Jess smiled faintly. “You know, there’s someone else pursuing Quinn too.”

Quinn quickly cut in. “Jess!”

Jess gave her a reassuring look and turned back to Chase. “He’s taller, better–looking, and way wealthier than you. Do you really think Quinn is so blind or foolish that she’d pick you over him?”

Chase said, “Quit lying. There’s no one like that in her life. You’re making it up.”

“There is, and I can prove it,” Jess said. “And if I told you who he is, you’d be terrified.”

That made Chase hesitate, doubt flickering across his face.
