GoodReadAlexander maintained an impassive facade, steadfastly ignoring her. Quinn's gaze bore into him, her intensity
met with his steadfast refusal to return her gaze, leaving her without an opportunity to engage.
In the end, she relinquished her hold on his sleeve. Quinn's gaze retreated as silently as her touch.
Once a decision was made by Alexander, it was as unyielding as stone. No amount of coaxing from Quinn could
alter his resolve.
He drove her back to their villa. Upon parking, Quinn's eyes trailed after him, a palpable eagerness to speak
evident in her gaze. Alexander, however, remained oblivious, not sparing her a backward glance as he walked
away. Left with no other option, Quinn trailed behind him. Once inside, he carelessly tossed his coat onto the

Each the left, Getty couldn't help but speculate about the nature of his relationship with Quinn. Was there a
budding romance? Could they already be entwined in each other's arms? Despite her reassurances that
Alexander wouldn't even touch her, let alone entertain the idea of a romantic relationship, Getty couldn't
suppress the irritation that bubbled up each time. "Isn't it normal forto go home?" His response was
indifferent, as if he hadn't picked up on the fury in Getty's tone.
"Yeah, you going his normal, but | just don't want you hanging around with that loser. | don't care, get over
here now. I'll freeze to death out here if you don't csoon." Alexander sighed, responding reluctantly, "Send
"Great, I'll send it through Messenger."
After the call ended, Getty swiftly sent the address to his Messenger. Alexander stood up and grabbed his coat.
He was about to leave when he sensed something. Turning his head, he caught a glimpse of a head peeking out
