Abigail grabbed Orion by the cor. "Did you say that douchebag killed Quinn?" Orion, choking from the grip on his cor, was even more shocked by her words.
"Did you mention Quinn?"
"You know Quinn, too?"
They stared at each other, the shlight tossed aside, its beam stretching far into the forest, illuminating the ground covered with fallen leaves and twigs.
The people chasing Orion saw the light and started heading their way.
"Damn! They''reing after us." Orion quickly got up from the ground, looking around frantically. Realizing he was lost, he turned to Abigail, asking, "Do you know the way out?" "Yes. Who are those people?" Abigail asked.
"I don''t know. Maybe Alexander sent them to catch me. Stop asking questions. Just get me out of here first!" Orion urged.
Hearing this, Abigail gave Orion another look. She bent down to grab the bag on the ground, "Follow me!"
She pulled Orion along at a quick pace in the other direction.
Orion was impressed by her; carrying such a big bag and still running so fast, she didn''t seem like an ordinary woman.
Abigail led him through twists and turns, making him dizzy. After running for about half an hour, they finally stopped. "Why did we stop?" Orion asked.
"Take a break." Abigail said, letting go of him and cing her backpack on the ground. She pulled out a bottle of water and tossed it to him, then grabbed one for herself and sat down on the backpack. Orion, both hungry and thirsty, sat down and finished the entire bottle of water.
After a moment, Abigail asked, "You mentioned Quinn earlier. Is she really dead?"
Orion choked on the water, coughed several times, and patted his chest to steady himself. "No, she''s not dead. She''s alive, just not in a great situation."
"What happened? Tell me quickly!" Abigail demanded.

Orion nced at her, saying, "Can''t exin it all right now. Got any snacks?"
Frowning, Abigail rummaged in her bag and tossed him a few bags of cookies.
"Your bag sure holds a lot," Orion remarked as he tore open the packaging and started devouring the crackers.
Abigail waited quietly for him to finish eating.
Feeling revived after eating and drinking, Orion finally felt alive again.
Abigail urged him, "Hurry up and tell me!"
"Quinn is my wife now." Orion spoke up.
Abigail looked at Orion in confusion, seriously doubting if he was making things up.
Orion stood up and said to her, "Get me out of here first. I''ll exin on the way. Besides, Quinn isn''t on the mountain; she''s down below."

Orion replied irritably, "Why wouldn''t you trust me? I have nothing to gain by lying to you!"
Abigail thought about it and realized he had a point. "Alright then, let''s go. We''re almost at the exit."
Following behind her, Orion pondered where to start and decided to begin with the first time he met Quinn.
The first time he saw Quinn was at the entrance of Regal Riverside. She was lying on the ground, crying in utter despair.
At that time, Orion didn''t know what had happened to her, but he was deeply drawn to her tearful eyes. Many times afterward, he would find himself thinking about those eyes.
He never expected to meet her again at his father''s banquet, where he saved her life, and that''s how they got to know each other.
Listening to his words, Abigail felt a pang of emotion. So much had happened to Quinn in the few months she had been away.
Especially thinking that Quinn might not even recognize her now, she felt even more upset, and her hatred and resentment towards Alexander grew stronger.
"And what about her child?" she suddenly asked.
