GoodReadKyle was met with an unsettling scene when he rushed over. Disregarding the need for shelter, he swung the
door open and ran toward Alexander, supporting him. "Alexander, are you alright?"
Kyle's inquiry seemed redundant given his previous encounter with Alexander, who had narrowly missed colliding
with the greenery after his car veered off course, almost shattering Kyle's nerves. Initially considering calling for
help, he was taken aback when the man staggered out of the vehicle and proceeded to abscond with his car.
Upon Kyle's second approach, he witnessed Alexander's collapse.
"I'm fine," Alexandre said as he steadied himself against the car and tried to get up, but he stumbled, falling flat
on the ground.
"Alexander!" Quinn had distanced herself from Orion, only stopping and releasing him after a considerable
distance. Turning around, she raised her gaze toward Orion. Quinn, her hair unkempt and soaked through, water
droplets incessantly cascading down her form, gestured, "Are you hurt?"
Orion, momentarily fixated on her, instinctively shook his head. He quickly reassured her, "I'm fine." Apart from
the punch delivered by Alexander, he was relatively unscathed. The blow seemed formidable but caused him
little actual pain. Observing a bruise forming on his chin, Quinn's expression betrayed a tinge of guilt. She had

Wayne earlier.
Sebastian arrived in his car, rolling down the window to address them, "Olien, Quinn, hop in the car!" Nodding,
Orion glanced at Quinn by his side and ushered her into the car.
Sebastian transported the two back to the welfare institution, a remote location which took over an hour to reach
but boasted a serene environment. Though originally intending to shield Quinn from the rain with an umbrella,
their soaked state rendered it unnecessary.
"Quinn, please get off the car," said Olien as she opened the car door and gestured for her to get off. This place,
apart from his previous pet shelter, held a particular place in his heart..
Once Quinn disembarked, Orion guided her inside. The rainy weather had driven everyone indoors, leaving the
yard desolate and echoing.
Leading Quinn into a room, Orion rummaged through the cabbut found no suitable attire for her. Hastening
outside, he borrowed a set from the matron, a woman who was over fifty, and her clothes lacked aesthetic
appeal. "Quinn, please make do with these. I'll go out later and get you something new," Orion stated as Quinn
held the garments, nodding in acknowledgment.
Conscientiously, Orion exited the room, closing the door behind him. Subtly inquiring, Sebastian asked, "Orion,
are you planning to have Quinn stay here in the future?"
The question weighed heavily on Orion's demeanor, as Alexander's unexpected intervention in Quinn's life
surpassed his initial expectations. Originally contemplating leaving Amber Bay with Quinn, Alexander's recent
words had instilled a sense of uncertainty.
If Alexander were to target the Orion family, Orion would bear the brunt of the consequences. Alone and
vulnerable, how could he possibly contend with Alexander's threat? It was as simple for Alexander to eliminate
him as squashing an ant. "Orion?" Sebastian called his attention again.
Snapping back to reality, Orion responded, "What is it?"
