Chapter 887
Quinn bit her lip. In the standoff between the two, she felt a bit defiant. She stood up and changed clothes right in front of Alexander.
Alexander shamelessly stared without blinking.
Eventually, Quinn couldn't handle his gaze and turned her back to him to finish dressing.
Just as she was about to turn around, Alexander's hand wrapped around her from behind.
His deep voice whispered in her ear, "Quinn, be good at home."
Quinn paused.
Alexander kissed her cheek tenderly. "You should eat something."
Quinn's fingers tightened. She looked at the setting sun outside the window and suddenly broke free from him.
"I'm going to sleep," she said.
Alexander stared at her back and paused. "Then you rest first."
Moments later, the bedroom door closed.
Quinn looked back and found that he was already gone.
Back in bed, she picked up her phone and scrolled through it; the chat logs were still there.
Seeing these messages again, she felt disoriented.
When she scrolled to the photo album, her expression changed. She didn't dare to open it and closed her eyes to delete it.
After deleting the videos, she tossed the phone aside. However, when she lay in bed, her earlier drowsiness was gone.
She seemed to think of something, picked up her phone again, opened Facebook, and found Walter's chat box.
She was silent for a while, then typed: [Are you there?]
She got no reply.
After waiting for more than half an hour, she was overwhelmed by sleepiness. Although it wasn't completely dark outside, she couldn't hold on and fell asleep groggily.

Alexander hadn't returned since he went out in the afternoon.
In the evening, Olivia came to call Quinn for dinner. After calling a few times without a response, she took out her phone and called Soren.
Quinn hadn't eaten all day, and Olivia was worried, so she asked Soren to check on her.
Soren arrived quickly. He skillfully set up an IV for her.
Afterward, Olivia pulled Soren aside and asked, "Is she okay?"
Soren sighed, "How would I know? Wasn't it like this before?"
Olivia thought for a moment and said, "But the medicine you prescribed is too bitter. Mrs. Kennedy can't drink it at all. She keeps throwing up. I'm worried it might damage her stomach." Soren said, "This is a secret recipe from my grandfather. It's bitter, but it works."This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
He continued, "Can you talk to Mr. Kennedy? Ask him to find a way. If she drinks it for three months, I promise, her health will improve."

She had tried it before, and it tasted awful.
Their whispering woke Quinn up.
She propped herself up in bed and checked her phone. It was already midnight, but the Facebook icon on the screen was very prominent, waking her up instantly. Walter: [Yes.]
Quinn quickly called him.
After a few seconds, the call connected. Quinn nervously said, "Lucas."
There was a moment of silence before Walter's laughing voice came through, "What's up?"
"What have you been busy with lately?" Quinn asked.
She actually wanted to ask when he was planning to take her away. However, seeing Alexander's attitude these past two days, she didn't want to drag Walter into it. Walter replied, "Nothing. About that matter, you need to wait a little longer."
