It all felt like déjà vu. Alexander had hit her with a simr question back in the day.


    She found it kinda funny; their mess was still a hot mess.


    "I''m right here. You thinking about offing me to save yourself some trouble?" Walter leaned in close. In the dim car, Quinn couldn''t see squat. It wasn''t until his breath hit her face that she snapped out of it and shoved him away. "Spill it. If you wanna kill him, why are you here now?" Quinn shot back.


    Walter leaned back, his voice dropping, "Didn''t n on things going sideways."N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.


    "What''s that supposed to mean?" Quinn pressed.


    "Those guys were Landon''s crew. Landon''s in deep now, hiding out. I was just lending a hand," Walter said, looking kinda bummed. "But the second wave? Not his guys."


    Since he was already outed, he didn''t bother hiding anymore.


    He''d nned to use Landon to take out Alexander, but who knew others would jump in? He rushed over as soon as he got the news.


    "Here for the show?" Quinn sneered.


    "Not really. Just curious about those folks," Walter admitted.


    Quinn finally got it. He was just nosy about who those people were and didn''t give a damn about Alexander.


    "So you didn''t see him when you got here?" Quinn blurted out.


    She realized it was a dumb question. If he had seen him, he wouldn''t be here chatting, and he wouldn''t admit he set up the first wave.


    Walter didn''t answer. He told Colin, who was driving, "Take the lower right path."


    Colin turned the wheel and headed down the small road to the lower right.


    Sean followed. A few cars slowly drove through the night, fading into the darkness.


    The car was dead quiet. Quinn nced at Walter next to her.


    He was staring out the window, his face hidden in the dim light, just a dark outline.


    After a bit, she broke the silence, "Earlier, were you nning to kill me too?"


    Walter turned to meet her eyes. "No way. I don''t want you dead. And Alexander wouldn''t let you die either," he said.


    Quinn gave a bitter smile. "Yeah, no matter what, he wouldn''t let me die. So you drag me into this mess to make it look real. Same at Amber Bay, and now here. The tiger in the forest, that was you too, right? You say it''s for my own good, but do you really care about me?"


    Walter stayed quiet, and Quinn couldn''t see his face, just felt his eyes on her.


    She went on, "I''m not important to you. You just wanna kill Alexander. Even though you knew he wasn''t part of the Kennedy family ages ago, you still went after him, pretending it was revenge, calling me a traitor. Walter, I don''t get it. Why do you hate him so much? More than you hate Landon."


    Walter stayed silent. After Quinn''s rant, the car went quiet again.


    Quinn asked, "Got nothing to say?"


    "Yeah, have you made up?" Walter asked.


    "None of your business. Whether I forgive him or not is my call. I just wanna know why you wanna kill him so bad," Quinn said firmly.


    Walter''s fingers traced the car window, but he didn''t answer.


    Just as she was about to speak again, Walter cut her off. "I think I see him."
