NovelEnglish"Enough!" Oliver's patience had reached its limit. "Will you ever cease these games?"
"| assure you, this is no game. Are you joiningor not?" Abigail was already perched precariously on the ledge,
her gaze dropping to the dizzying height below. An involuntary shiver ran down her spine. Truth be told, she
lacked the bravery to make the leap, but she was confident that this ploy would succeed with Oliver.
"Fine, fine, I'm on my way!" Genuine concern laced Oliver's voice. "Just step down from there, will you?"
Abigail's laughter echoed in the air, a playful sound, as she gracefully descended from the windowsill. "Hurry up,
I'll await your report."
"You truly are a piece of work..." Oliver sighed, resigned to the fact that he could never resist his sister's whims.
Once he ended the call, Oliver offered an apology to his client before setting off towards Alexander's residence.
The gate of the villa was firmly closed, offering no glimpse of what lay beyond the confines of his car. He exited
the vehicle and pressed the doorbell, but the silence from within was deafening.
Just as he was about to head back, a message from Abigail appeared on his phone screen, revealing the code to
Alexander's door lock.
Oliver studied the string of numbers for a moment, wrestling with his conscience. Was he truly about to
trespass?
His hesitation was fleeting, however, and he punched in the gate code. The door obediently swung open at his
command.
Upon entering the villa, Oliver refrained from venturing upstairs. Instead, he called out several times from the
ground floor.
After several minutes of waiting and receiving no response, he was about to depart when a faint sound caught

Oliver questioned whether it was merely his imagination playing tricks on him and strained his ears, listening
intently.
Sure enough, the noise echoed again, and this time, he was sure of it.
He followed the sound, eventually coming to a halt in front of a door. Tentatively, he called out, "Quinn?"
The room remained silent.
Oliver repeated her na few more times and tried the doorknob, only to find it locked.
"Quinn, are you in there?"
Quinn stirred slightly. Oliver's voice seemed distant, but she recognized that someone was outside the door.

She had heard her nbeing called in her drowsy state. Initially, she had dismissed it as a hallucination. In an
attempt to reach out to the voice, she had inadvertently knocked something over. Now, the voice was clear.
Someone was indeed calling her name.
Summoning her strength, she managed to tap lightly on the door.
The sound was barely audible, and Oliver hesitated before asking, "Quinn, if you're in there, tap three times."
A soft tap echoed from within.
Then, a second.
But the third tap never came.
Oliver was now almost certain that someone, or something, was inside. He hesitated for a moment, then fetched
a chair from within the house and used it to break the door lock. With the lock shattered, the door creaked open
slightly.
Pushing the door open with seffort, Oliver was met with a storage room cluttered with cardboard boxes and
books.

Oliver's eyes widened in shock, and he quickly crouched down, sweeping away the pile of books to reveal the
figure buried beneath.

How could Alexander do this?
This was his wife, carrying his unborn child, and yet he could treat her so cruelly!
Without wasting a moment, Oliver scooped up Quinn and dashed out of the villa, heading straight for the
hospital.
Abigail had been calling him incessantly. Only after Quinn was rushed into the emergency room did Oliver finally
answer.
