for such a talented actress," Alexander retorted.
Her fingers clenched involuntarily, and she found herself at a loss for words as she met his gaze. 'He's not
entirely wrong," she thought. "Thoughts of divorce have often crossed my mind. When I'm alone, when | witness
his favoritism towards Getty, and during the solitude of the night, such thoughts have plagued me."

She found herself unable to articulate these conflicting emotions to him. In a sense, Alexander wasn't entirely
wrong. "No explanations then?" Alexander's gaze bore into her.
Quinn clutched the hem of her dress, choosing silence as her response. Alexander studied her for a moment
before leaning back, a semblance of composure returning to his features. "Quinn, I'll say it again. It's pointless to

Alexander encircled her waist, bringing his face close to her ear. He whispered, "Tell me, who's been planting the
seed of divorce in your mind?"
Caught off guard, Quinn turned to meet his gaze. His eyes were deep pools of darkness, devoid of any
discernible emotion. Quinn held his gaze until he suddenly demanded, "Out with it! Who the hell was it?"His
raised voice startled her, causing her to flinch.
In a panic, she attempted to rise and retreat, but he firmly gripped her wrist. "Quinn, have | been too lenient with
you? Is that why you dismiss my words as if they're mere whispers in the wind?" he admonished.
His fingers tightened around her wrist, causing pain to shoot up her arm. Tears welled up in her eyes as she
struggled against his hold, but it was to no avail. He held on relentlessly. "Why won't you speak? What's silencing
you?" he demanded.
