Quinn found herself hesitating, acutely aware that remaining in the hospital would inevitably raise Alexander's
suspicions about her pregnancy. The doctor, perceiving her reluctance, offered a compromise. "If you can't stay,
I'll prescribe smedication to help you maintain the pregnancy. However, you'll need regular check-ups.
Beyond that, it's really in the hands of fate."
Quinn gave a nod of understanding. When Alexander had confiscated her phone the previous day, she had felt
the last vestiges of hope slipping away. Now, even the smallest glimmer of hope felt like a divine gift.
After obtaining her prescription, Quinn exited the hospital, only to catch sight of Kaitlyn. The woman was cradling
a child, seemingly waiting for someone. Instinctively, Quinn tightened her grip on her medicine and prescription,
lowering her gaze to avoid Kaitlyn's scrutiny. She hurried away, her heart pounding in her chest.
Back at the villa, with Alexander still absent, Quinn stashed away the medicine and busied herself with preparing
dinner. It wasn't until the stroke of midnight, when she was certain he wouldn't be returning, that she allowed
herself to eat sof the now cold meal. Alone, she found little comfort in returning to the emptiness of their
shared bedroom. Instead, she preferred the couch, lulled to sleep by the drone of the television.
Just as Quinn was settling in, a call from Abigail pierced the quiet. Startled by the late hour, Quinn answered
regardless. "Finally, you pick up! Where have you been these past few days? | couldn't reach you by phone or
WhatsApp. Check your Whatnow," Abigail instructed, before abruptly ending the call.
Opening WhatsApp, Quinn found a string of messages from Abigail, all inquiring about her whereabouts. Thinking
quickly, Quinn fabricated a lie. Abigail responded with a voice message, "Hope you're alright. I've made a break
from my family. My old man froze all my accounts. Can you lendscash?"
Without hesitation, Quinn transferred the money she'd received from Alexander earlier that day, retaining only a
thousand for emergencies. After all, she had a doctor's appointment looming. "Is that enough?" Quinn asked.
"Plenty," Abigail reassured her. "I'll pay you back once I've earned some."

The sound of wind in the background made Quinn wonder if Abigail was outside or on a bike. Concerned, she
texted her, "Got a place to stay?"
It took a while before Abigail replied, "Of course. I'm crashing with a biker buddy. Got lots of places. They've got
a race in a few days. You coming to cheeron?"
"If I win, not only will I get a bike but also a cool million. Once you're divorced, how about | take you on a world
tour with that ride?"
Quinn's fingers trembled as she read the last line. It brought back memories of six or seven years ago when
Alexander was into street racing too. She would always go to watch him, cheering him on. At eighteen,
Alexander had bet his car against another rich kid's rare red sports car, intending to gift it to her for her coming
of age. He had promised to teach her how to drive.
But during that race, neither car
returned for a long time. Quinn and
others had searched the mountain
base for a day and a night. They
found the rich kid [Ritfscaniti
Ee the' mountain,
becoming an unrecognizable wreck.
Terrified that Alexander had met the
sfate, Quinn had plunged into
the woods, searching all night and
bruising her body in the process.
Finally, under a pile of broken
branches, she found Alexander. He
had managed to bail out as the car
rolled, landing in a tree. Those
branches had saved his life. The
