Chapter 31 She Is Tricked by Quincy
Renee’s face was pale, and her lips trembled. “You can punish me however you want. I have no objections.”
He could do anything as long as he had his hands off the project.
Quincy pinched her chin and stroked it flirtatiously for a few times. “I had no idea that you were such a loyal woman and that you would go to such lengths for that actor. Well, there’s one thing I’m curious about. You’ve been with me for two years. How come you have never been so loyal to me?”
Renee turned perfectly obedient. Her eyelashes were drooping when she said, “I can be that if that’s what you want.”
She thought, “I can die for you.
“We were married for two years, and yet you never gave a damn about me or my affection.”
He clicked his tongue and said, “It’s a pity that you’re a cheap woman. Do you really think I’ll be foolish enough to pay for you? What do you have to let me make an exception for you?”
Quincy let go, took a disinfectant tissue, and wiped his fingers, looking disgusted.
She looked at the countdown on the stage, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead due to her anxiety. “Mr. Patel, I was wrong. You are the bigger man here. Please let me off. Whatever you say in the future. I will cooperate with you unconditionally.”
“You mean anything?”

She hastily nodded. “Yes. Just name it.”
Quincy leaned over and lowered his voice, saying, “Be my personal

secretary who is on call 24 hours a day. I’ll let you go when I’m done with you. How about that?”
Renee looked at him in disbelief, a flash of humiliation in her eyes.
She thought, “What kind of woman does he think I am?”
Quincy sat up straight again. “You have a minute to think about it. Once the bid is submitted, there is no turning back.”
He thought. “Renee, you did everything you could to get rid of me. Do you really think I’m that easy to handle?
“The more you want to be with that actor, the more I want to stop you.”
Renee froze in situ, watching the countdown to submit the bids and biting her lip. “Fine, Mr. Patel.”
Quincy smiled and said coldly, “You’re loyal to him indeed. Back then, you went all out to marry me, claiming that I was the only love of your life. Yet in just two years, you fell for someone else. Your love is cheap. ”
“Yes. That’s just who I am.”
Renee lowered her head, and there was a hidden sadness in her eyes.
The bidding lasted an hour. After it was over, Riley’s company successfully acquired the rights to develop the land.
When she saw the good–looking Riley on the stage, she smiled, happy for
him
Seeing the smile on her face, Quincy gave a cold snort, feeling a bit uncomfortable

He got up and went to the lounge behind the stage. The lounge was filled with the project’s officials, whose opinions were crucial to the bid.
Renee saw him greeting everyone. It seemed that he was close to them.
“Mr. Patel, I’m looking forward to seeing Quinjoy Group’s satisfying performance this time.”
“Mr. Patel. I hear your company is going into the jewelry business. I’m looking forward to seeing you promoting the local industry. In such a way, everyone can develop together.”
Quincy said with his usual business look, “Sure thing.”
Renee was uneasy when she heard their conversations. She took the bid book from Quincy’s assistant and opened it to the first page. It was a joint development project proposal for some land.
She was tricked by Quincy!
Quincy had no intention of bidding on the small piece of land. He was going after the large mixed–use development site! He was so cunning!

Renee clutched the project book, her heart aching with anger.
She stroked her stomach and told herself to calm down.
No matter what, she couldn’t afford to offend Quincy. After all, he had Riley’s project. The project in Quincy’s hands belonged to large plot development, whereas Riley could only rely on Quinjoy Group
In terms of strength, Riley was no match for Quincy at all.
Meanwhile, Riley walked inside and went to Renee. “Why are you here together with Quincy?”
“Never mind that. Did you know when you were bidding on the project that the land next to the land you wanted was being taken by Quinjoy Group?”
“I just found out. After all, there are only two groups here capable of taking over the land. I didn’t know things would become so coincidental.”
Riley looked at her. “It’s just cooperative development. There’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Renee smiled wryly and then said, “He misunderstood my relationship with you, so he will probably give you a hard time in the future. I’m sorry I got you into trouble this time.”
“Ree, don’t say that. I wouldn’t have been here if it weren’t for you. I’d rather give up the project than let you suffer grievances.”
“Don’t be impulsive Patience always pays off. We won’t suffer grievances our whole lives.”

Renee took one look at the outstanding man not far away from them and said firmly, “One day, we will make achievements as well. We will not depend on others for life.”
At the meal after the bidding, Riley, as the winning bidder, was plied with drink a lot.
As Renee was standing next to Quincy, no one dared to urge her to drink
She saw Riley stumble to the bathroom and wanted to chase him out, but Quincy stopped her. He said slowly, “There are so many people here watching. And you want to come on to another man? Where do you place me?”
“He’s drunk.”
“So what? You think you can make achievements and not depend on others for life that easily?”
Renee looked at him in surprise and wondered, “How does he know what I said?”
He chuckled and said, “We are in the business world. Nothing is as simple as you think. Yet I’m looking forward to seeing what you are capable of.”
Renee was embarrassed, surprised he could read lips.
She clenched her fists. “What’s the point of living without a goal? Mr. Patel, can’t I dream?”
“I’m glad that you know you’re dreaming. Yet if you please me, perhaps I’ll give you the chance to take a shortcut.”
After saying that, Quincy got up and left.
Renee took out her phone and texted Carley Minnie, another friend of hers, to pick Riley up.

She got in the car with Quincy and left.
All the way, neither of them spoke.
Carley texted Renee, telling Renee that she had already picked up the drunk Riley.
Then Renee was relieved.
Not long after, the car stopped. Renee looked up and saw a familiar road, which was not the way back to her place.
It was the way back to the wedding place!
Renee said, “Stop the car!”
Quincy tilted his head with inquiry in his eyes.
She looked over. “I’ll take a cab back since we are on our separate ways. I don’t want to trouble you, Mr. Patel.”
“Up to you. Yet I have to warn you that you are my 24–hour personal secretary, so you are expected to be on call. I hope you don’t forget that.”
Quincy said extremely calmly, “You should think seriously about whether you can afford the consequences of any more tricks.”
“Relax. I know that.”
Renee opened the car door and walked away without looking back
She knew that if she wanted to be qualified to negotiate with him, she had to have leverage. She had to make efforts to become a valuable person in order to be qualified to negotiate
It was 11 o’clock when Renee took a cab home, and she was so drowsy that her eyelids were drooping uncontrollably

No sooner had she laid down after washing up than she heard the phone ringing. She saw the caller ID, frowned, and then picked the phone up. She said, “Yes? Mr. Patel, what can I do for you?”
She thought. “It’s the middle of the night Why is he calling me instead of sleeping with that phony Lisa in his arms?”
“I can’t find one of my brooches. Where did you put it?”
Renee said, trying to be patient. “You may ask one of your servants to find it.”
“I don’t like strangers coming into my room. Just tell me where it is ”
“It’s on the second–to–last shelf of the third cabinet. Find the brooch you want yourself.”
Renee had to repeat several times silently, telling herself to calm down, so that she didn’t hang the phone up.
Yet the second she finished speaking, he hung up directly.
She tossed the phone away, closed her eyes, and fell asleep.
Meanwhile. Quincy sat in the cloakroom, looking for the brooch, but he Just couldn’t find it He went through a lot of clothes, but he couldn’t find what he was looking for
And he couldn’t get that woman on the phone anymore.
He frowned. He never liked the servants to sort out his things Instead, he always did it himself or had Morris do at
In the past two years, thanks to Rence, he had never been bothered by these problems once

The bedroom was neat and tidy at all times, and she could find whatever he needed at once.
Quincy rubbed his temples and suddenly found himself getting used to Renee’s presence.
She was obedient and low–key for two years, but she managed to permeate every aspect of his life.
Early the next morning, Renee was woken by a knock on her door.
She got up to answer the door angrily. “Who is it?”
Morris stood outside, looking embarrassed. “Ms. Braun, Mr. Patel asked you to come over.”
Renee was confused.
Why would Quincy want to see her early in the morning?
Renee looked at Morris as if he was a retard. “Where?”
“You’ll know when you’re there. Mr. Patel is not in a good mood at the moment, so you’d better not be late.”
At Morris‘ thoughtful reminder, Renee changed her clothes and followed him out.
An hour later, the car stopped in the courtyard of the villa. Renee was dazed by the sight of the familiar villa.
It used to be her wedding place with Quincy.
After the divorce, she moved out.
Renee walked into the hall. The maid smiled and said, “Mrs. Patel, you’re back.”
“Don’t call me that. Where’s Mr. Patel?”
