Why didn’t Duncan Shepard come with her? He’s Yolanda Robinson’s boyfriend and also a friend of Quinn Ortega. What if there’s a conflict, and he ends up protecting Yolanda Robinson.
Yolanda Robinson barged into Quinn Ortega’s office.At the moment she pushed open the door, Audrey Macy was sitting on Quinn Ortega’s lap, feeding him a sandwich.

Quinn Ortega glared at Yolanda Robinson with a dark expression. “What are you doing here?”Yolanda Robinson has never liked Quinn Ortega, finding him too callous.Quinn Ortega, in turn, dislikes Yolanda Robinson, thinking she’s lacking in emotional intelligence and completely disrespectful.
Yolanda Robinson sneered, “Do you think I wanted to come find you? I’m looking for Nicole. She didn’t come home last night, and can’t reach her by phone. What have you done to her?”Quinn Ortega frowned. “I don’t know. She wasn’t with me.””I called Nicole after ten last night, and she said she was still working late. Nicole is your secretary; isn’t she working late for you?”
Quinn Ortega remained silent.Audrey Macy whispered, “Quinn really wasn’t at the office last night. As the boss, he’s entitled not to work late, and he was with me before midnight. We truly don’t know where Nicole is.””Pah, you think you can just call Nicole’s name? Shameless vixen, seducing someone else’s boyfriend. Do you even have the face to show up?”
The employees watching started to murmur among themselves.Audrey Macy pulled on Quinn Ortega’s sleeve, looking aggrieved.Quinn Ortega glared coldly at Yolanda Robinson. “Enough! I’m not going to argue with you out of respect for Duncan Shepard, but Audrey Macy is my partner. I won’t tolerate you insulting her.”
He sneered, “If anyone was trying to seduce me, it was Nicole Hayward. She shamelessly climbed into my bed. If it weren’t for her, Audrey Macy and I wouldn’t have been apart for so long.””S**mbag!” Yoland Robinson stormed up and slapped Quinn Ortega hard, shouting, “You were the one who started the relationship with Nicole. Now that you have another woman, you say Nicole seduced you? You’re so shameless; you don’t deserve Nicole.”
“Ah, how can you hit people?” Audrey Macy rushed over to hug Quinn Ortega, shouting, “Where are the security guards? Get this crazy woman out of the company!”
People outside rushed in to pull Yolanda Robinson away.Yolanda Robinson continued to curse, “Quinn Ortega, listen up. If anything happens to Nicole, none of you will get away with it. Shameless man, filthy woman, you’re a disgraceful couple.”
Audrey Macy complained to Quinn Ortega, but he kept his head down and remained silent.
