GoodReadThroughout the process, Quinn remained silent, as if she wasn't there. She quietly seated as the two men
discussed her marriage.
She couldn't understand why Wayne had suddenly becso concerned about her marriage. Surely it wasn't
just for her benefit. He must have other motives.
Orion gently nudged Quinn's arm, noticing her dejected expression. After a moment of silence, he turned to
Wayne and asked, "Mr. Kennedy, may | speak with her in private? "Certainly, you never chere before, right?
Quinn, why don't you show him around?" Wayne suggested.
Quinn stood up, casting a sideways glance at Orion before leading the way outside. Orion followed closely
behind, fixating on Quinn's slender figure, feeling a sense of unexplained heaviness. He figured that Quinn
probably did not want to marry him.
In the backyard, Quinn walked with her head bowed, making her way to a group of dried-up plants.
Among the desolate landscape, only the pond held onto a touch of color, with a few water lilies decorating its
surface, which was the only vibrant presence in the whole area.
Quinn stood by the pond, looking at the floating water lilies, her gaze appearing distant.
Standing beside her, Orion looked at her pale profile, unable to find the right words. After a moment, Quinn

Frowning, Orion took her hand and looked deeply into her eyes. "Quinn, if you don't want to marry me, | can talk
to Wayne and resolve everything.
His touch was warm, like sunlight, providing a comforting warmth. Quinn gazed at his face, her expression
momentarily lost in thought.
Shortly after, Quinn pulled her hand back and shook her head. "He just wantsto get married. It doesn't really
matter who the person is or if | want the marriage," she remarked.
Orion furrowed his brow even more. "Why? He said he wanted to find the right person for you. | am sure he is not
in a rush."
Quinn tugged at the corner of her lips, taken aback by Orion's naivety and his trust in Wayne. She bitterly smiled,
which conveyed a message to Orion.
Hesitantly, he asked, "Is it because of Alexander?"
Quinn remained silent.
Orion had a sudden realization. Wayne wanted her to get married not because he cared about her but to cut off
