NovelEnglishOrion glanced at Quinn in her swimsuit. Despite her petite figure, she appeared to have a nice body. Orion quickly averted his gaze, fearing he might start bleeding from his nose if he continued staring. "Go ahead," he said.
Quinn blinked as if asking Orion why he wasn't joining her.
Orion seemed to understand and wiped his nose, saying, "I'll go after you." Quinn tilted her head, looking confused.
Orion explained, "Go test the water temperature." Quinn understood this time. She nodded and carefully stepped down the steps toward the pool.
The water temperature was perfect, akin to a bath, with petals gently floating on the surface. Quinn began playing with the petals in the water, completely absorbed in her own little world.
Orion, wrapped in his down jacket, strolled over to a chair near the exit and sat down, showing no interest in joining her in the pool.

Quinn waved at him from the water, and Orion waved back with a smile.
Seeing that he wasn't coming down, Quinn pouted, then swam toward the deeper end.
Orion sighed as he watched Quinn's figure.
This courtyard featured a large banyan tree standing nearby, surrounded by a variety of flowers and plants, as well as rows of evergreens. The entire space exuded a lively spring atmosphere.
As Orion was admiring the scene, someone suddenly tapped his shoulder from behind.
Orion instinctively turned around and was shocked to see the person behind him.
Suddenly, Orion bolted upright from his chair, staring at the person in front of him. He stuttered out. "Dad? What are you doing here!" Before he could make sense of it, he was sure Alexander had called him! Before he could think further, Charles slapped him across the face.
Charles shouted, "Do you still acknowledgeas your father? I believed you had grown so powerful that you no longer sawas your father. You rebellious son, bringing someone to a place like this, you are truly audacious!" Orion, holding his face, glared at Charles and retorted, "Why can't I bring her here? We are legally married..." Before he could finish, Charles slapped him again, saying, "Shut up!" Not only was Orion angry, but Charles was also very angry. If it weren't for the inappropriate setting, he would have taken off his belt.
Charles shouted, "Take him back to me!" Several bodyguards immediately cforward, one grabbing Orion's arm and dragging him out.
Orion caught sight of Quinn in the water and felt anxious. "Dad, hold on! I can cback with you. Can you wait a moment?" Charles snorted, "Wait for what? You better take care of yourself first. Take him away!" Charles knew what his son was up to and naturally wouldn't give him the chance.

A wave of panic washed over Quinn. She turned around, intending to head back to the edge of the hot spring.
