GoodReadUpon laying his eyes on the divorce certificate, a frown creased Alexander's forehead.
"Where did this cfrom?" he inquired.
Getty's gaze flickered towards Quinn as she retorted with a stubborn tone, "Naturally, she handed it to me. |
cto confirm whether you two had truly divorced. Fearing my disbelief, she presented it as proof."
Quinn remained silent, her eyes fixed on Getty as the latter manipulated the truth to her advantage.
Alexander's gaze shifted back to Quinn.
"Did you give this to her?" he asked.
Quinn responded with a simple shake of her head.
Observing this, Getty hastily interjected, "You little dummy, you clearly gave it to me. Why are you pretending
otherwise now? Alexander, this is your divorce certificate. If she hadn't given it to me, how would | have known
its location?"
Alexander remained silent, his expression hardening into a grim mask.Quinn's lips tightened into a thin line as
she met Alexander's gaze, fully aware that he would be swayed by Getty's persuasive words. After all, Getty was
quite convincing, and she, a mute girl, was unable to voice her defense.
However, Alexander's next move was unexpected. He snatched the divorce certificate from Getty's grasp, tore it
into shreds, and nonchalantly discarded it on the floor.
The sudden act left Getty dumbfounded, momentarily forgetting her injuries."Alexander, you..." she began, but
was cut off as Alexander grasped her arm, assisting her to her feet. "I'll take you to the hospital," he declared.

Alexander's response was icy.
"What do you expectto do? Retaliate?"Getty was momentarily speechless. She did want to fight back, but
couldn't muster the courage. All she wanted was for Alexander to reprimand Quinn and show ssupport for
her. But what did his current actions imply?

Was he not taking anyone's side?
In the end, Getty spat out in frustration, "I am not a dog. If a dog bites me, should | bite it back?"Alexander
simply responded, "Then let's head to the hospital."
He didn't even rebuke Getty for referring to Quinn as a dog. Quinn, seated on the ground, dropped her gaze,
feeling the sting on her cheek where she had been slapped.
Not only on this side of her face, but it felt as if Alexander had slapped her on the other side as well. Their
sarcastic exchanges felt like a physical blow, leaving her feeling humiliated. She couldn't comprehend why she
was still there. Getty, fearful of her wound becoming infected, decided to cease arguing. Given his attitude, there
was no point in continuing the dispute.
She might even provoke him to the point where he stopped caring about her entirely.
Getty casually wiped the saliva and blood from her wound with a tissue and turned to leave. "Why aren't you
wearing shoes?" Alexander asked.
Getty retorted impatiently, "Ask that dummy over there. She left dog droppings at the door. She was brought up
by The Kennedys, a prestigious family. How did they manage to raise such a coarse individual?"
