Through the short exchange, Orion understood. "If he truly loves you, he wouldn't be absent when you're on the
verge of marriage."
He was right. Alexander's absence had explained one thing. He didn't care about Quinn anymore.
Raising her head, Quinn stared directly at Orion and asked, "Orion, | see you as a friend. Are you sure you want
to marry me?"
In this instant, Quinn revealed her self-centered side, expressing her apprehension about marrying a stranger
and fearing the uncertainty of another marriage. While Orion may be the logical choice, she didn't want to
deceive him. Orion stood motionless for what seemed like an eternity. The wind gently brushed against them
both, causing Quinn's nose and cheeks to flush, tinting Orion's cheeks crimson as well. They stood facing each
other, their breath mingling in the air for a brief moment before being carried away by the wind.
Despite being close, no spark of romance ignited between them. Quinn's composed and straightforward gaze
inexplicably unsettled Orion. Perhaps sare easily dismissed, and the more unattainable they seem, the more
desirable they become.
Orion's gaze sharpened with determination as he looked at her.

see you mistreated by people you don't know. | may not be able to offer much, but I promise I'll try my best to
make you happy." Then he continued, "Take it as a favor from a friend. If someday you wish to divorce, | won't
stop you."
A glint in Quinn's eyes betrayed a sudden wave of bittersweet emotion. To her, she and Orion were hardly
acquainted, making his actions seem undeserved. She felt unworthy of his kindness. Turning away, she gestured,
"Please don't be so nice to me. It makesfeel guilty."
Orion held her shoulders, earnestly saying, "Quinn, please don't stress yourself. Take it as a favor from a friend.
Also, my parents are also botheringwith marriage. If we are married, they won't bother us with this issue
anymore. It's good for both of us, don't you think?"
Quinn gazed at him in silence, momentarily unsure of how to react. His expression appeared sincere. He truly
wanted to help both her and himself.
Anxious yet reflective, Orion felt a twinge of sadness. All he wanted was to take care of her. But he was in no
position to do so. Now, he had to lie to her, pretending that he was just doing her a favor. He also felt guilty. For a
brief moment, he felt jealous of Alexander.

Alexander effortlessly got Quinn's love, which Orion would kill to obtain, yet he wasted it.
"Quinn, do you agree?
Faced with his question, tears welled up in Quinn's eyes. In the honesty of his gaze, Quinn found herself unable
to decline. She had no reason to do so. She closed her eyes and nodded gently. Orion's happiness was beyond
words. He quickly wrapped Quinn in his arms.
