He stood there, gazing out at the vast expanse of the sea, seemingly lost in a world of his own thoughts.
Quinn stirred from her slumber, the clock on the wall indicating it was already past seven in the evening. As she
opened her eyes, the darkness outside was punctuated by the faint twinkling of stars reflected on the sea. A
gentle breeze,
carrying a hint of sea salt, wafted through the open window, soothing her frayed nerves. There was something to
be said about the healing power of beautiful scenery.
However, her mind was still foggy from sleep, and she struggled to remember why she was here. It took her a
moment to recall that Alexander had brought her on this trip.
Rising from the bed, Quinn surveyed the room, finding it devoid of any other presence. The white curtains
fluttered gently in the breeze, casting a soft light on the grey floor, creating an aura of cold silence.
With a sense of urgency, Quinn discarded the covers and climbed out of bed. She scanned the room, and once
she was certain that Alexander wasn't there, the unfamiliar surroundings lost their romantic charm. Instead, they
instilled a sense of unease within her.
She retreated back into the room, reaching for her phone. She quickly sent a message to Alexander, inquiring
about his whereabouts. After what felt like an agonizing fifteen minutes, a response finally arrived. It was just a
few words. Alexander: [I'm outside. Wait a bit. Don't wander around.]
A sigh of relief escaped her lips as she read his message. Just as she was about to set her phone aside, another
message popped up. This one was from Orion.
Orion: [Where are you? Have you eaten? Are you with Alexander?]
Faced with his barrage of questions, Quinn was unsure of which one to answer first. So, she chose not to reply at
all.

Orion was just a nin her mind, a vague entity. She couldn't recall anything about him, only that he existed.
Tossing her phone aside, Quinn lay back on the bed, absently counting strands of her hair.
Meanwhile, Orion, who had received no response, couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment. He glanced at
Sebastian, who was peacefully sleeping on the bed, and sighed. He had always suspected that Quinn's heart
belonged to Alexander, and that their divorce was a result of Alexander's feelings for Getty.
However, Alexander's desperate attempt to whisk Quinn away didn't align with Orion's assumption of his
indifference towards her. This left Orion puzzled about the real reason behind their divorce. After much
contemplation, he concluded that it must have been due to a disagreement or conflict.
Hesitant, he sent another message.
Orion: [Have you made up?]
Quinn, upon seeing the message, was momentarily confused. What did he mean by "made up"?
Quinn: [What are you talking about?]
Orion furrowed his brows and sent another message.
Orion: [I mean, since you're not responding to me, | figured you'd made up with Alexander?]
Quinn: [What's wrong betweenand him?]
Orion: [Don't you remember?]
