Chapter 760
A realization dawned upon Quinn, 'It's him. It's really him.'
Tears welled up in Quinn's eyes as she gazed at Alexander's face, her vision growing increasingly blurred. Walter also ran over, and upon seeing the two of them, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before he could speak, Alexander handed Quinn to him, saying, "Take her out."
Walter was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but give him a couple of extra glances.
"Are you okay?" Walter asked suspiciously.
Just as he finished speaking, there was a loud crash from behind them, as if something had fallen.
Alexander gave Walter a strong push. "Get out of here!"
Walter, after giving him a deep look, didn't hesitate anymore. He gripped Quinn tightly and turned to make a run for it.
Quinn forced herself to look back.
Through the thick smoke, Alexander's figure seemed to waver and distort. The intense heat from the fire was warping the air, making his image elusive and almost ghostly.
Quinn's eyes flickered, tears streaming down her cheeks. She opened her mouth but closed it weakly, her arms falling limply by her sides.
Watching Walter walk away, Alexander exhaled, his tense expression relaxing slightly. He took slow, staggering steps towards the outside.
However, he hadn't gone far when a thick cloud of smoke hit him, causing him to cough violently. He raised one hand to support himself against the wall, the other clutching his abdomen, a look of pain crossing his face. Alexander forced himself to keep going, his eyes fixed on the hallway ahead, moving forward step by step with great difficulty.Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
In the next moment, his body swayed, and he collapsed heavily to the ground.
Outside, the fire trucks had arrived, and firefighters were busy setting up their equipment to extinguish the blaze.
The sounds of sirens, firefighting, and ambulances echoed through the night, creating a chaotic scene outside the villa.
Kaitlyn hurried forward, and seeing only Walter and Quinn coming out, she grabbed Walter and asked, "Where's Alexander?"
"He's still inside," Walter replied, then bypassed Kaitlyn and rushed towards the ambulance with Quinn in his arms.

Kaitlyn looked towards the villa engulfed in flames, her face growing increasingly pale, her eyes filled with despair.
With such a massive fire, could Alexander still make it out?
Seeing this, Kyle couldn't help but want to rush in, but the firefighters held her back.
The fire was too intense now; going in would mean not coming out.
Getty also arrived as soon as she got the news. Seeing the fire in front of her, she trembled violently.
Upon learning that Alexander hadn't come out, Getty didn't hesitate and rushed in, ignoring everyone's attempts to stop her.
Her action left everyone stunned. Not only Kaitlyn but even Kyle hadn't expected her to charge in without hesitation.
Of course, Getty herself was surprised at her bravery, daring to rush in like that.
The flames around her scorched her skin, and Getty began to regret her decision. But thinking that she was already inside, she gritted her teeth and pushed further in.
Because the high-pressure water jets extinguished the fire outside, the temperature inside the villa temporarily dropped, but the smoke was much thicker than before.

Looking around, all she could see was a dense cloud of black smoke, thick enough to make her pass out with a single breath.
Covering her mouth and nose with her sleeve, Getty weaved her way through the smoke.
Getty called out, "Alexander, Alexander! Where are you?"
She shouted as she made her way upstairs.
Whether from fear or the smoke, Getty's tears flowed freely. She cried out desperately for Alexander.
But there was yet to be a response.
There were several bodies on the floor, and she had stumbled over them multiple times, her palms sizzling from the scorching hot floor.
Biting her lip, Getty forced herself to stand up, disregarding the pain in her body as she searched the bodies on the ground.
Chunks of debris kept falling from above, causing her to scream in fright, but even so, she didn't give up her search.
Crying and searching, Getty continued her desperate quest.
Suddenly, her foot kicked something, and she screamed as she fell.
