When she first met Julian, her heart beat faster and she would drift into daydreams upon seeing him. As time went by and they became closer, interactions with him were no different from those with her fellow coaches. When alone with Julian, everything felt natural; her heart did not race, and there were no more wandering thoughts.

She thought the relationship with Julian was more of a camaraderie between brothers.

She never expected Julian to express his love for her.

Quinn felt her face heating up.

She touched her face and even gave it a light pat, muttering to herself, “Quinn, are you feeling shy? Is it because a man said he likes you, and now you’re all fluttery? Stay calm, stay calm.”

Julian would not worry about future domestic violence issues as her previous blind dates did. After all, he was a formidable martial artist himself, capable of defeating Will.

She was no match for Will.

If Julian could beat him, it meant his skills exceeded hers. What was there to worry about?
