Casually seating himself and leaning back, Walter glanced at them before speaking, "Ms. Assistant, are you
planning on running away withinstead of standing by Alexander?" Ruby, dressed in her professional attire
and sitting upright, let out a wry smile. "There's no point inremaining by his side."
Walter crossed his legs, eyeing her with a smirk. "Perhaps you should start looking for the problem within
yourself."Blushing, Ruby replied, "It's not that... | cto tell you it might be a bit tricky to leave Amber Bay at
the moment."""Who said I'm leaving Amber Bay?"
Walter retorted.Ruby hesitated slightly, "Then why are you...?"Walter didn't answer; his gaze fixed on the pouring
rain outside as he mused, "What about Alexander? His wife's gone missing. Any reaction?"Ruby furrowed her
brows and shook her head, "No reaction.
He's been busy with the company affairs, and with a shareholders’ meeting coming up, he probably doesn't have
tto worry about that dummy."
A glint appeared in Walter's eye, and he chuckled, "Interesting."Ruby and the other man exchanged glances, not
quite understanding the meaning behind his comment.
Suddenly, Walter stood up. "Alright, you can leave now."Ruby hesitated, "I've call this way, can | really go

know who." Surprised, her eyebrows furrowed slightly, "You mean, he's known all along..."With a laugh, Walter
reassured, "Don't worry, it's not about your charm."

A touch embarrassed at having her thoughts exposed, Ruby also stood up. "Then I'll take my leave."The man
followed her out. Before long, the farmhouse was quiet again. Walter stood at the doorway, tilting his head up to
watch the rain falling off the roof's edge.
Quinn, who had been sitting inside for a while, faintly heard the sound of a car and rushed to the door. She
cracked it open just enough to see a white car pulling away from the farm.Before she could make out the license
plate, her view was blocked by a figure.
Gripping the door frame, she looked up through the narrow opening to find Walter's smiling face greeting her.
Quinn swallowed hard, feeling as though she'd been cornered.Walter pushed open the door and asked her, "Can
you cook?"She nodded."Get to it then."
