GoodReadA call from the caretaker found its way to Quinn as well. The woman on the other end of the line confessed her
inability to continue in her role. Quinn, taken aback, struggled to form a response. She yearned to inquire about
the specifics, but her words were trapped, leaving her to stew in silent worry on the other end of the line.
Everything had appeared normal when she had departed the previous evening!
The caretaker's voice filled the silence, her words tumbling out in a rush. "How should I refund the money to
you? Maybe you should cby tomorrow, no wait, it's better if you cnow... | feel like the old lady is..."
Quinn's grip on the phone tightened, her heart pounding with a mix of panic and helplessness. She cursed her
inability to articulate her thoughts.
Once the call ended, she quickly composed a text to the caretaker, explaining her inability to speak and
requesting details about the elderly woman's condition. After sending the message, she cast a glance upstairs,
considered for a moment, and then decided against seeking his assistance.
Quinn sank into the couch, her phone clutched tightly in her hand as she waited for a response.
Perhaps the caretaker was too preoccupied; she didn't notice the text, and Quinn's wait for a reply proved
fruitless.
As she glanced at the wall clock, it read ten at night.
Her anxiety, perhaps, had triggered the return of her headache. It was a sharp, stabbing pain that made her
world spin.
Holding her head, she curled up on the couch, her fingers tightly wound in her hair, teeth gritted against the
pain.
Just get through this, she urged herself, tightening her embrace.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated. Quinn, struggling, sat up and retrieved the fallen device.
Despite the throbbing in her head, she managed to unlock it with trembling fingers.
The caretaker had replied.
She revealed that the elderly woman's son had visited, declaring the situation hopeless and expressing his desire
to take her home. However, there was still sof the medical fund remaining. The doctor had suggested two
more days of treatment.
Ariel had caused a commotion at the hospital, demanding a refund. This had likely distressed the elderly woman,
who had fainted and been rushed to the ER, only to be later wheeled out to a doctor who merely shook his head.
Ariel, frightened by the chaos, had backed down from demanding a refund and left the elderly woman to
continue her hospital treatment alone.

The caregiver, fearing blfor any adverse events involving the patient, had decided to resign, informing
Quinn of her decision.
The doctor had issued a critical condition notice, and it seemed unlikely that the patient would pull through.
As Quinn read through the barrage of texts, her heart clenched. She clutched at her collar, gasping for air.
Why was Ariel at the hospital? How had he managed to be there at such a coincidental moment?
Quinn tapped her temple, attempting to calm herself. She waited for the pain to subside before she slowly eyed
the upstairs.
Could he truly be that heartless?
Feeling weak, Quinn made her way towards the study, swaying with each step as if she might collapse.
She didn't knock; instead, she pushed the door open and entered.

Quinn took slow steps towards him, her gaze never leaving him.
"Okay, got it." Alexander ended the call and shifted his attention back to Quinn.
She stared at him, her hand gesturing, "Why?"
Alexander looked at her hand but remained silent.
