"What are you staring at?" The young man's voice jolted him back to reality. Hastily, he clambered into the car,
pulling Quinn out with him.
"Are you alright?" he inquired, concern lacing his tone.
Quinn's eyes fluttered open, her vision blurred. She could discern a faint sound nearby before darkness claimed
her once more.
"She doesn't look well," the young man observed, worry creasing his brow. "Should we take her to the hospital?"
After a moment of hesitation, he glanced at the barely conscious girl cradled in his arms. His teeth clenched in
determination, he commanded, "Bring my car around!" "Right away."
In no time, the young man returned, driving an inconspicuous white Ford.
Gently, Preston lifted Quinn into his arms, kicked the car door open, and settled her into the vehicle.
Throughout the drive to the hospital, he monitored Quinn's breathing. She was alive, but only just.
"Drive faster," he urged, anxiety seeping into his voice.
"I'm going as fast as | can!" the young man protested.
Preston sighed, his gaze falling on Quinn once more. Even with her eyes closed, she had a captivating allure.
She must be a student, he mused.
His contemplation was interrupted as the young man abruptly hit the brakes, parking the car at the hospital
entrance. "We're here!"
Without wasting a moment, he scooped Quinn up and rushed into the emergency room, shouting, "Doctor!
Doctor! She's dying!"

dangerously weak. They whisked her away into the emergency room.

Exhausted, he slumped onto a nearby bench. "I'm beat."
"Who is she?" the young man asked.
Leaning against the wall, Preston shook his head. "I don't know."
"You don't even know her, and you brought her here? What if her boyfriend comes after you?"
His mind raced, recalling that the car belonged to someone named Alexander, a man even their father treated
with respect.
Why had Alexander locked her in a car? And why was she still wearing an apron? Was she their family's nanny?
His thoughts were interrupted as the ER doors swung open and a doctor emerged. He quickly approached the
doctor, asking, "How is she?"
"She fainted from lack of oxygen, but she's stable now. She just needs to inhale oxygen for a while."
"That's... good."
Quinn was moved to a regular room,
an oxygen mask secured over her
face. The doctor informed him that

His father's reprimanding tone was deafening. "Where are you? Get back here now!"
The roar was so loud it nearly burst his eardrum.
