Quinn shook her head; he was not Alexander...


    Ignoring her protests, the man grabbed her chin, silencing her lips.


    She clenched her teeth, turning her head away, crying in despair.


    Gazing hopelessly at the ceiling, tears streamed from her reddened eyes, tracing down her cheeks.

    Quinn''s tears continued to fall unabated, moistening the strands of hair at her temples. Her smooth locks cascaded onto the snowy white bedsheets.


    It was a striking image, marred only by the disgust and anger evident in her eyes.

    If the person she sought so persistently was someone else, he could have had that person eliminated.


    But she had been searching for was Alexander from before the age of twenty. Where could he find that person for her?


    As Alexander''s gaze turned icy, he grabbed a pillow and pressed it against Quinn''s face, obscuring her damned gaze.

    However, he dared not speak up, as he could tell that the man was currently agitated. Any words from Soren would likely provoke a harsh response.


    After finishing his cigarette, Alexander shot a nce at Soren, who immediately averted his gaze.


    After a while, Soren returned Quinn''s hand to the covers and hesitantly approached Alexander.


    "Mr. Alexander."


    "Speak."


    Clearing his throat, Soren hesitated, "Could you... be a bit more restrained? Quinn''s body hasn''t fully recovered yet."

    Soren quickly shielded his face with his hands, thess struck his arm before shattering on the floor with a resounding crash, sending shards flying everywhere.


    Ignoring the pain, Soren scrambled out, fearing a dy might prompt Alexander to kill him.


    As a result, he tumbled down the staircase in a straight descent.
