Kyle dropped Quinn off at Regal Riverside. Before she got out, Kyle reminded her, "Mrs. Kennedy, The Mellon Group is counting on you." Quinn ignored him, opened the car door, and got out.
Alexander was still working on the sofa. Quinn walked over quickly and stood in front of him, staring.
He looked up and smiled, "You''re back. How do you feel?"
"Not great. Did you do it on purpose?" Quinn asked.
"What?" Alexander looked puzzled.
Quinn sat down, annoyed. "I don''t want The Mellon Group anymore. You take it back."
Alexander replied, "We''d need an acquisition to take it back. A stock transfer won''t work. Are you nning to sell it to me?"
Quinn frowned. "Would you buy it?"
Alexander said, "Sure, but the Kennedy Group doesn''t have so much funds right now. You''ll have to wait."
Quinn wasn''t convinced but couldn''t check the Kennedy Group''s ounts. Her only option was to seek investment from Alexander.
But if she took his investment, she''d be under his control. Whenever he wanted, The Mellon Group could face a financial crunch, and she''d have to turn to him.
Quinn asked, "Alexander, when we signed the contract with Xavier, did you know he had invested thepany''s money elsewhere?"
Alexander smiled, "Don''t use me wrongly. I don''t have that kind of power."
"Of course you do. Forget it. Even if you knew, you wouldn''t admit it," Quinn said. "Lester mentioned he needs $400 million for cash flow."
Alexander''s eyes showed a subtle expression. "Are you negotiating a partnership or asking for money?" he asked.
"Is there a difference?" Quinn asked.This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
Alexander exined, "Of course. If it''s business, we followmercial rules. But if you''re asking for money as my wife, it''s normal for me to support you. I can transfer the money right now." Quinn didn''t know how to respond but remembered something. "Is that marriage certificate real?"
Alexander said calmly, "You can check it."
Quinn was momentarily speechless.
She didn''t want to ask him for money, but negotiating a partnership seemed like a trap.
Quinn opened her mouth but then swallowed her words.

Maybe there was another way. She didn''t have to get his investment.
With that thought, Quinn suddenly stood up and went upstairs.
She locked herself in the bedroom and messaged Walter, exining the situation.
She wanted to ask Walter if he had any solutions.
After sending the message, Walter didn''t reply for a long time. She wasn''t sure if he was busy or asleep because of the time difference.
After waiting, she threw her phone on the bed in frustration.
Shey on the bed, staring at the ceiling.
She thought of Kyle''s words fromst night and Alexander''s behavior just now.
Quinn was so annoyed she scratched her head.
Suddenly, her phone rang. She quickly checked it.
It was a message from Walter.
He asked Quinn to send him the projects Xavier had invested in.
Quinn was delighted and immediately contacted Kyle to send over the project documents.
Kyle was efficient. In less than twenty minutes, he sent a document to her.
Without looking at it, Quinn forwarded the document to Walter.
Walter replied: [Let me take a look first. Don''t worry.]
Quinn felt a bit relieved. Suddenly, someone knocked on the door, startling her. She quickly put away her phone.
"Mrs. Kennedy, it''s time to eat."
Hearing Olivia''s voice, Quinn sighed in relief.
She deleted her chat history with Walter, put away her phone, and went downstairs.
In the dining room, Alexander was already waiting. His gaze swept over Quinn, as if he knew what she had been doing upstairs.
Feeling guilty, Quinn avoided Alexander''s eyes. She picked up the medicine beside her and drank it first.
Alexander suddenly said, "It seems you still trust Walter more."
