Alexander whipped out his phone and pped it to his ear to take the call.


    The fact that the call went through meant Alexander had arrived. Walter didn''t waste time with small talk and jumped right in, "Landon''s been tight with Alistair for thest two years. After Alistair and Hetastian bailed on the Vide Group, they''ve beenying low and finally skipped town to Municity, all thanks to Landon''s help."


    He added, "These two have a decent crew backing them. They''ve been setting up shop in Municity. No clue how big they''ve gotten, but they''re definitely not small fry." Alexander listened without a peep. When Walter finished, he shot back, "You''ve been in the game with him for ages. Howe you don''t know how big they''ve gotten?" "You always think the worst of me. You know what kind of deal I have with him. You think he''d spill everything to me?" Walter snapped.


    Alexander sneered, "What else can you do besides spout this crap?"


    He mocked, "Sounds like you can''t save Quinn on your own. Want me to do it? Just chill at home and get your head checked. You can''t keep having these crazy ideas." With that, Alexander didn''t give him a chance to reply and hung up.


    He leaned against the bathroom wall, fiddling with his phone, not in any rush to leave.


    Sean stood nearby, all jittery. But then he thought, ''If Alexander''s not in a hurry, why should I be? Am I in a rush to get myself killed?''Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    With that, Sean felt way more rxed and stuck by Alexander''s side, waiting.


    After a bit, Alexander picked a number and dialed it.


    With one hand in his pocket and the other holding the phone, he stared at the unfamiliar view outside the ss.


    Soon, the call connected. He asked straight up, "You know the yers in Municity? Send me the deets. Especially anyone named Alistair or Hetastian. They might''ve switched names." Sean watched Alexander, clueless about what the person on the other end was saying, but Alexander''s face got more serious by the second.


    After a moment, Alexander thought it over and said, "Alright."


    Then he hung up.


    He turned to look at Sean, who stared back with wide, innocent eyes. They just looked at each other in silence.


    "Are you hungry?" Alexander asked out of nowhere.


    Sean shook his head, confused. "Not hungry. Are you?"


    "Then why are you standing here? Waiting for food?" Alexander scoffed.


    Sean was speechless, feeling a bit hurt as he looked at Alexander. He then grabbed the bag on the floor and turned to leave.


    Alexander yanked him back by the cor, took the bag from his hand, and headed into the bathroom.


    Sean stood outside, baffled, staring at the bathroom door, finding Alexander''s behavior more and more puzzling.


    Not long after, Alexander came out of the bathroom, now rocking casual clothes: a ck and white striped shirt, white casual pants, sunsses, and a white sun hat.


    At first nce, Sean didn''t recognize him, but those broad shoulders and long legs caught his eye. A closer look at his face confirmed it was him.


    "Mr. Kennedy, why the change of clothes?" Sean asked.


    Alexander tossed the bag to him and strolled outside.


    Sean was stunned for a moment, then quickly found a simr set of travel clothes and changed into them.
