Orion paused and asked, "What child?"


    "Isn''t she pregnant? You didn''t know?" Abigail asked in surprise.


    "I had no idea. No one told me, and she didn''t look pregnant at all!" Orion replied.


    Abigail''s anger red up even more. She pondered in her heart, ''Orion didn''t know Quinn was pregnant after all this time. There is only one possibility - the child has been aborted.


    ''Quinn has been so looking forward to that child; she would never have aborted it willingly!


    ''It must have been Alexander who forced her to do it, that jerk!


    ''How desperate Quinn must have felt when she lost the baby! But I wasn''t there at the time, and she had to endure it all alone.''


    By now, the sky had brightened, and even without a shlight, Orion could see the anger in Abigail''s eyes.


    Orion had a rough idea of what was going on.


    ''How heartless must someone be to abort their own child?


    ''As it turned out, Alexander had no heart.'' Orionmented in his heart.


    After leaving the mountain, they reached the foot of it. Orion took out his phone, which had only 1% battery left, and called Ryan to send someone to pick them up.


    Abigail called Oliver. After learning about Quinn''s condition, she decided against visiting Quinn, not wanting to scare her.


    Ryan and Oliver arrived at the foot of the mountain one after the other.


    When Ryan got out of the car and saw Orion''s disheveled state, he sighed helplessly. "You had us worried sick."


    Orion scratched his head and said, "It was an ident. You almost didn''t see me again."


    "Let''s get in the car first," Ryan said.


    Meanwhile, Oliver was looking Abigail up and down. "You didn''t give us a heads up beforeing back. How did you end up here?"This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    "It''s a long story," Abigail replied.


    As they talked, Oliver and Ryan exchanged nces.


    They smiled and shook hands. Both were from the same city, and even if they didn''t run in the same circles, they still knew each other. "Mr. William, what a coincidence."


    Ryan shook his hand and smiled. "Indeed, I didn''t expect to run into you here."


    "Let''s go; this isn''t the ce to talk."


    Ryan nodded, and the four of them got into the car and headed toward the city center.


    The people who had been chasing them saw the car drive away and made a call.


    "Orion got away, and Ryan took him."


    Landon answered the call but wasn''t angry. "If he got away, he got away. It seems Ryan isn''t that easy to fool after all."


    It was just a test; they never intended to kill Orion.

    If they couldn''t turn the William family against Alexander, killing Orion would only backfire.


    Walter scoffed, "I told you not to mess with this. Politicians aren''t stupid. You''ve managed to piss off the William family, even though they might not retaliate, but you''ve rubbed them the wrong way." Landon shrugged, saying, "Ryan''s position isn''t that influential. He can''t help with small matters and can''t handle big ones. So what if I''ve offended him?"


    "No one stays in the same ce forever."


    "Who can say what the future holds?"


    Walter didn''t argue with him. However, since Ryan is ambitious, he probably wouldn''t get involved in these matters easily, there was no need to worry. Quinn had spent the night in Alexander''s ward.


    When she woke up, she found herself in his bed, but he was nowhere to be seen.


    Olivia was preparing breakfast nearby. The aroma instantly woke Quinn up, and she was no longer sleepy.


    She got out of bed, went to the dining table, and asked Olivia, "Where''s Alexander?"
