Chapter 884
Quinn was wiping Abigail's face. Her movements were skillful and proper, unlike when she took care of Alexander before. Alexander still remembered that one time she accidentally pulled out his needle, and on another occasion, she almost suffocated him.
Oliver was nowhere around, so it was just Quinn in the ward.
Hearing footsteps, she turned and saw Alexander. She then went back to wiping Abigail's hands.
After finishing, she took the basin to the bathroom.
A bit later, she came out.
Alexander said, "We should go."
Quinn almost used sign language but stopped herself. "I want to stay a bit longer."
Alexander replied, "You've been here long enough today."
It was a firm no.
Quinn bit her lip, stayed quiet for a moment, then walked over to him.
She was feared that if she upset Alexander, she wouldn't be allowed to come and see Abigail again.
Alexander took her hand and led her to the elevator.
Halfway there, Quinn stopped and looked up at him. She also wanted to see Orion.
However, before she could ask, Alexander said, "No."
Quinn frowned, thinking, 'I haven't even said anything. How does he know? Am I that easy to read?'
But she stood her ground and insisted, "I just want a quick look."
"I said no." His tone was firm as he pulled her to the elevator.
Quinn was annoyed, but Alexander seemed even angrier, pulling her along quickly. She almost had to jog to keep up.

After leaving the hospital, Alexander shoved her into the passenger seat and drove off.
The car was silent.
Quinn felt her phone in her pocket. She took it out and saw it was her old phone, with all the data still there.
Opening Facebook, she saw the pinned chat with Alexander.
She long-pressed the chat and unpinned it.
Thinking about her past obsession with him, she felt like slapping herself and repenting at Sophia and Henry's graves for days.
She did love Alexander, but the blood feud in her memory overshadowed that love.
Any affection for Alexander was drowned by guilt towards the Mellon family and the innocent people who had died.
This pain was worse than when Alexander hurt and neglected her.

If he didn't know about the huge gap between them, he wouldn't be so stubborn.
He must have known, which was why Alexander, destined to fail, would rather risk his life for her than say"I love you" to Quinn.
This was probably his way of keeping his last bit of dignity and pride.
It was hard to say whether he was laughable or pitiable.
Quinn stared blankly at their chat, noticing his profile picture. At some point, he had changed it back to that grayish image. It was still those two bears.
Quinn knew what the picture was but didn't have the courage to click and zoom in on it.
Soon, they arrived back at Regal Riverside, and Quinn was still in a daze.
Alexander turned his head, his gaze falling on her phone, and he saw his profile picture too.
