GoodReadAlexander's countenance twisted into a grimace of contempt, his expression teetering on the brink of violence.
"You're asking me?" he spat out.
In that moment, Kyle's gaze drifted towards Walter and found him entwined with Quinn. The sight disoriented
him, throwing him off balance. What had transpired in the mere span of two days that he had been absent? Had
Quinn's affections shifted so abruptly? He found it hard to believe that Stockholm syndrcould manifest so
swiftly.
Alexander's gaze hardened as he scrutinized Quinn, noting an unfamiliar chill and detachment in her eyes. With
a final, curt instruction to Kyle, he climbed into his car. "You handle it," he commanded, before driving away
without a second glance at Quinn.
Walter couldn't help but snicker at the unfolding scene. "See, he'll never choose you," he taunted. Quinn,
however, merely pushed him away and retreated a step.
She had always known the truth of Walter's words, and they served only as another dagger to her already
wounded heart. But the pain had long since numbed.
Kyle, now left in a state of confusion, pondered over Alexander's cryptic directive. Was he to kill them? If
Alexander had desired their demise, he could have easily accomplished it himself. Why pass the task onto him?
After much contemplation, Kyle resolved to tend to Walter's injury first, before escorting both prisoners down the
mountain.
Walter sat in the yard, a deep cut marring his flesh, as someone was called upon to dress his wound. The injury
was troublesand would take tto heal.

over again, causing her head to throb with pain. She realized it was her own delusion, her own insatiable greed
that had led her to this point.
Had she remained obedient in the villa, Alexander would have treated her well. But she had chosen to challenge
him, to force him into making such a decision.

She had indeed been foolish. Yet, facing the prospect of death, was it so wrong to harbor delusions? Quinn closed
her eyes, feeling the chill of the mountain wind seep into her bones. But it was the cold within her that truly
overwhelmed, rendering her desolate.
Perhaps it was the pain in her head that caused her to lose consciousness, for she suddenly collapsed to the
ground."Quinn!"
Kyle had intended to escort Quinn downstairs, but Walter was having none of it. Brandishing a remote control, he
issued a warning. "Don't do anything rash, or we all go kaboom."Kyle's eyes were riveted to the remote in
Walter's hand, finding himself in a terrible predicament.
He understood why Alexander had chosen to extricate himself from this stalemate; it was an impossible
situation. Alexander's intention for him to stay was clear to ensure Quinn's safe exit.Walter didn't seem eager to
kill Quinn immediately, but if pushed to the edge, he could change his mind swiftly.

Kyle found himself in a tense standoff, unable to make a move for fear of triggering Walter's wrath. Walter's gaze
drifted towards the farmhouse gate, the mountains looming ominously in the distance. "Why bother with all this,
Alexander?" he mused aloud. Kyle offered a wry half-smile in response, though he was equally perplexed.
The journey back was a long one.
