GoodReadGuided by the digital map on her phone, Quinn found herself standing on the second floor of the specified hotel.
She stood before a door that led to a private room, the number of which she double-checked against the one she
had been given.
For a full two minutes, she lingered outside, gathering her courage before finally knocking. From within, a man's
voice beckoned, "Cin."Taking a deep breath, Quinn pushed open the door and stepped into the private
room. The man inside, Chandler, was not what she had expected. Instead of the middle-aged figure she had
anticipated, he was rather thin.
He was not particularly handsome, but neither was he unattractive. Adorned with black-framed glasses and a
slightly hunched back, Chandler's only notable feature was his excessive thinness. Otherwise, there was nothing
particularly off- putting about him.
Upon seeing Chandler, Quinn felt a wave of relief wash over her. As long as the negotiation went smoothly,
Alexander would reveal Juliet's location.
With this thought in mind, she slowly approached Chandler, bending slightly in greeting."Miss, may | ask your
name?" Chandler rose to his feet, extending his hand with a friendly smile.Quinn glanced at him apologetically,
shook his hand, but remained silent.
Chandler's brow furrowed in confusion. "How should | address you?"Quinn pursed her lips, hesitated for a
moment, and then pulled out her phone. She showed him the screen where she had typed: [I'm sorry. | can't
speak.]Chandler looked at her in astonishment, scrutinizing her for a moment. "You can't speak? How can we
negotiate then?"
Quinn lowered her gaze in embarrassment.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had no idea how to negotiate, let alone what project they were supposed to discuss. Kyle had only given her
an address.Chandler's gaze roamed over her.

She was dressed in a white down jacket, bundled up tightly, with a hat that obscured half of her face. Despite the
layers, her thinness was evident.
She didn't quite fit Chandler's aesthetic, but her face was strikingly beautiful. Without any makeup, she radiated
a purity that reminded one of clear water.Even though she hadn't spoken a word, when her clear, penetrating
gaze met his, he felt a pang of guilt, as if he had committed sgrave sin.
Chandler found himself staring at her face in a daze.Quinn furrowed her brow, her eyes questioning his
intentions.
Seeing that he remained unresponsive, she waved her hand in front of his face. Chandler suddenly grabbed her
wrist, causing her body to stiffen slightly.
Snapping out of his trance, he guided her to sit on the couch. "I understand what Kennedy Enterprise means. In
that case, have a drink with me."Quinn's gaze fell on the alcohol on the table, leaving her slightly dazed. She
didn't drink and had hardly ever tasted alcohol. In the past, Alexander had strictly forbidden her from consuming
alcohol.
Even at family gatherings, she always had juice before her. Alexander had once told her that women who drank
alcohol would grow beards, and he didn't like women with beards.
