Quinn lifted her head and saw Juliet on the hospital bed on the screen, now awake, propped up and talking to a
nurse. Muted, Quinn couldn't hear their conversation.
She clenched her fingers, her gaze moving from the screen to Walter's face, which held a commanding air.
Biting her lip, she wrestled with her emotions for a long tbefore looking down, her lashes hiding the turmoil
in her eyes. On her knees, supporting herself with shaking hands, she crawled slowly toward him. Her ankle
chain dragged across the floor, making a sharp sound.
Kneeling before Walter, she looked up at him. Walter bent down, lifting her chin with a smile, "See? Being

Kyle decided that it was best to hurry upstairs. Just as he was about to knock, the study door suddenly swung
open, revealing Alexander with a grim expression. "What is it?" Alexander demanded.
Holding the phone with a trembling hand, Kyle stammered, "Alexander, | - | received a... video."With that, his
shaky hands offered the phone to Alexander.

downstairs. Grabbing his coat from the sofa, he walked out the door.
Kyle hurriedly followed. "Alexander, where are you going this late? It's about the video... it's Quinn's..."
Alexander acted as if he didn't hear a word, got into his car, started the engine, and like a shot, sped off into the
night. "Alexander..."
