Chapter 872
"Looks like Quinn's got pseudo-amnesia," Alexander muttered, rubbing the sofa as he stared at Quinn lying on the bed. "Will it relapse?"
Soren shrugged. "Hard to say. Since she remembers now, the chances of relapse should be low, right?"
Alexander waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.
Soren nodded, backed out respectfully, and closed the door behind him.
Alexander got up, walked over to Quinn, and sat down. He reached out his long fingers and tucked the stray hair behind her ear, revealing her small face.
She wasn't sleeping well. Her brows were furrowed, and tears glistened on her lashes. It seemed that she was trapped in a nightmare.
Alexander's fingers brushed her brows, trying to smooth the nightmare out of her mind.
When her face finally relaxed, he stood up and left the room.
Kyle was waiting in the living room.
Seeing Alexander, he stepped forward. "Mr. Kennedy, the bodies have been dealt with."
Alexander sat on the sofa and asked, "How?"
Kyle replied, "They turned on each other over the loot and killed each other."
Alexander picked up the remote and turned on the TV. "Any news on Abigail and Orion?"
Kyle shook his head. "Not yet. Mr. William and Mr. Vanderbilt are still searching. The river's shallow and slow. If we haven't found bodies, they might still be alive."
Alexander nodded. "What about Landon?"
"No idea. He hasn't shown up at the company."
A cold smile crossed Alexander's lips. "Time to end this game."
Kyle looked puzzled. "What do you want me to do?"
"Find Stanley's wife. You know what to do."
Kyle thought for a moment, then nodded. "Got it. I'll handle it."

Quinn slept through the next day, waking up in the afternoon.
She opened her eyes, recognizing the room, and felt her heart sink.
She got out of bed and headed for the door.
Just as she reached it, Alexander opened it from the outside.
He was in casual home clothes, clearly not having gone out.
Seeing his familiar face, Quinn instinctively stepped back. Alexander's gaze was steady, his eyes unreadable. He took long strides toward her.

Quinn backed up until she hit the bed and fell onto it.
Alexander reached out to touch her cheek.
Quinn turned her head away.
His hand hovered in the air, inches from her face.
"This day was bound to come," Alexander sighed.

Quinn, noticing the bandage on his hand, felt a tremor in her heart.
Her eyes moved up to his inscrutable face.
His fingers twitched, then landed on her cheek.
Quinn suddenly pushed his hand away. "Alexander, let me go. Let me leave."
"What do you mean by 'let you go'?" Alexander leaned in, his voice low and emotionless, his fingertips brushing her face.
"You're speaking so fluently now. You were cuter when you didn't."
