If such a drastic change was not proof of true love, then what else would? "Shut up, you traitor!"

Chase's words greatly upset Quinton. He flung a teacup towards Chase and yelled, "Any man who dared to deceive my sister deserves no forgiveness! I don't care if it was true love�the only thing that man deserves is to be fed to the fish�no, he deserves to chopped up into pieces before being fed to the fish!"

Quinton was extremely protective of his sister. Anyone who dare to touch even a single strand of hair had to pay with their head! Initially, he merely wanted the impostor to die, but now that he learned that the bastard played with his sister's heart, he decided that the man had to suffer a fate worse than death!

"Quinton, Renee began, massaging her temple and visibly exhausted. "Please stay out of this and let me handle it. Okay?"

"Listen to me," Quinton added earnestly. "You have to be harsh and firm when dealing with men; otherwise you'll just be setting off a time bomb that will one day explode, and you'll end up crushed and burned by him."

"It's my choice to handle it however I want," argued Renee. "I'm almost thirty now. I can deal with the consequences of my own choice�"

Renee clasped her hands and pleaded with her brother, "I'm begging you, Quinton. Let the impostor be a gift for me on the occasion that we finally reunited again, and let me handle it, please?"

Quinton was eventually persuaded, and he gave in. He turned his head and sighed. "You stubborn girl! Fine, do whatever you want!"

Hearing his words, both Renee and Chase finally sighed in relief.

Renee and Chase secretly discussed how to lure the impostor Mr. Q out of the study.

�Ms. Everheart,� said Chase with emotion, �although you are his sister, you are nothing at all like Boss. You have a kind disposition, and I�m assured that, at the very least, the impostor Mr. Q won�t be so cruelly tortured once he is handed over to you.�

�You speak as if my brother is a savage beast and that impostor is some kind of angel of justice! Is that guy really worthy of your protection?�

�He is!� Chase nodded gravely. �I believe that everyone else who works in Carmine Pawnshop would make the same choice.�

�Then� is there going to be a mutiny? What will happen to my brother? He built Carmine Pawnshop from the ground with his own hands! Is he going to be replaced?�

�Don�t worry, Ms. Everheart. The boss won�t be replaced. I�m sure that Carmine Pawnshop will soon resume its operations in the same way that it once did. It�s just that we�ll all miss the security and stability that we enjoyed these past four years.�

�You�re overthinking it! My brother promised me that for the time being, Carmine Pawnshop won�t get involved with the questionable business it once dabbled in and that it would continue to operate in the same manner as it did for the last few years.�

�It looks like you don�t really know the boss at all��

Chase smiled, then deliberately changed the subject by pulling out his phone and saying, �I�ve sent a secret signal to the impostor, Mr. Q. If nothing out of the ordinary happens, very soon he�d be at the Carmine Pawnshop. All I ask from you is to let him live.�

�Only a secret signal? Would that really work? Surely he�s too smart to fall for it!�

�But it�s not an ordinary secret signal,� Chase beat his chest and confidently assured her. �It�s one I only sent him during extreme emergencies. He always showed up soon after receiving the signal in the past, so as long as the news of Boss�s return hasn�t reached him yet, I�m sure the impostor, Mr. Q would definitely be here.� JrNovels.com
