The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1597

The moment Claire and Dane walked out the door, Quinn's boyfriend, Yates, immediately cornered her.

"Quinn, you seemed to really like that customer just now."

Yates dropped the shy, boy-next-door act instantly, his face twisting into a cold, predatory sneer.

He was still undeniably handsome, but the sheer malice rolling off him was terrifying.

"I..." Quinn instinctively tried to back away, but the wall caught her.

"I was just jealous of her."

"Jealous of what?" Yates's voice dropped, growing even more dangerous.

"Jealous that her fiancé is filthy rich and looks like a model? Or are you just bitter that she's prettier and wealthier than you?"

Quinn pressed herself against the wall, keeping her eyes glued to the floor. "I just wish I was that beautiful. And that rich."

Yates stepped in, trapping her in his arms. "You're beautiful too. Sure, you're not on her level, but you don't need to feel insecure."

"As for the money, Quinn, as long as you cooperate, we're going to be swimming in cash."

"I'll make sure you never have to be jealous of anyone ever again."

Yates sounded like a devoted lover, but his words sent a violent shudder down Quinn's spine.

Yates hadn't lied to Claire entirely. He really did plan to save up, move to a better city, buy a house, and open his own salon.

But he wasn't going to earn that money. Quinn was.

He kept her on a brutally tight leash. Washing hair was just her day job. Her real job was servicing the men he brought her.

Every dime Yates currently had stockpiled came from selling Quinn's body.

And he was already expanding the operation. He wasn't just forcing her to sleep with locals anymore; he made her bait men online.

He forced her to flirt with wealthy targets, or he just impersonated her himself to seduce men over text.

Once he lured them out to the border, Quinn was forced to meet them.

The second they were compromised, Yates would kick down the door playing the enraged husband.

It was a classic, ruthless extortion racket.

Quinn was a prisoner. She had traveled all the way to this remote town, head over heels, thinking she was meeting the love of her life.
