Quinn set one journal aside, only to take up another. Its pages were crinkled and aged, the script within faded
and askew from the passage of time.
As she leafed through it, she found that every youthful wish etched onto its pages had been realized: trips to
amusement parks, a coveted cake, an oversized lollipop, the cartoons she yearned to watch, a pristine princess
dress, and butterfly hair clips.
Even her wish to marry him had ctrue.The final wish sat on the page, followed by a stretch of emptiness.
She had wed Alexander, and with him, all wishes ceased. It was akin to reaching the end of a tale. Yet, the end of
life had not arrived.
Abigail once mentioned that after the grand finale in movies or stories, comes the mundane existence that no
one observes because it lacks excitement.
Thus, when all her wishes had been granted, Alexander stopped coming home.Quinn passed her days in the
frosty silence of the villa, her life as tranquil as still water.

As he passed her, he paused to say, "Don't wander off."Three simple words, and he was gone again. Quinn
watched the direction he vanished into and bit her lip.
Alexander arrived at The Kennedys, a bustling living room teeming with people awaiting his arrival. Freya sat on
the couch, her face as pale as a ghost, while Kaitlyn tried to comfort her with gentle pats on her shoulder.The
Yates family was present as well, along with Valerie's mother.
The room was crowded.In the center of the hall, three men knelt. These were the men who had abducted
Valerie.Yates turned to Freya, "Don't you think you owe us an explanation?"Freya vehemently shook her head, "I
don't know, | swear I've never seen them before!"Yates sighed and produced a voice recorder from his pocket,
pressing play."Where are you guys now? Did you get out of Amber Bay?"
Freya's face blanched as she
recognized the voice emanating from
the device; she was rendered
speechless, unable to utter a single
word in her defense. Yates said,

what else do you have to say?"|, It

shaking her head incoherently. Why
