Both of them thought carefully for a while and then shook their heads. "No, just a blanket, nothing else." Alexander lowered his eyes, deep in thought for a long time.
The old lady added, "Sir, can we go see Getty now?" "Kyle, have someone take them to the hospital." Kyle nodded and made a gesture of invitation. The two finally stood up with a sense of relief and followed Kyle out of the villa.
After sending them off, Kyle cback and asked, "Mr. Kennedy, should we send someone to investigate?" "Don't you think it's a bit strange?" "What?" Alexander glanced at him but didn't explain anything. He got up and walked out.

There's more here." But Quinn seemed not to hear Olivia, picking out only the meat from the bowl and pushing all the vegetables aside.
She didn't know why she was so hungry, just craving meat.
After finishing her meal, she let out a satisfied burp, patted her stomach, feeling quite full, and then handed the utensils back to Olivia. "When can I go home?" This was the eighth tQuinn had asked since waking up. Olivia, growing impatient, replied, "You can go honce you're better." Quinn's shoulders drooped. For sreason, she felt like she hadn't seen her parents in a long time. She really wanted to go home.
Seeing her disappointed look, Olivia wanted to say something to comfort her but didn't know where to start. Outside, Alexander stood at the door without entering. He seemed to think of something and turned back to ask Kyle, "Has Orion's divorce papers been signed yet?" Kyle was taken aback and then quickly took out his phone to call Charles.
"I'll ask him now!" After a short while, the call got through, and Charles's apologetic voice cfrom the other end, "Mr. Astor." "Mr. William, it's been almost a week. Has it been signed?" Enjoying the book? Don't forget to visit 5sfor the full experience. You won't find the next chapter anywhere else. Happy reading! "Yes, yes, it's signed. I'll send it to you tomorrow." "Okay." Kyle said, glancing back at Alexander. Seeing Alexander's displeased expression, he quickly added, "But Orion has to bring it himself." "Does it have to be Orion?" Kyle replied, "Of course, for a divorce, how else would it work?" "But Orion has been bedridden recently and can't come. How about waiting a few more days?" Charles had the signed the divorce agreement, but it was his own signature on it.
He had originally planned to stall for tand then work on convincing his son to go through with the divorce. But who knew Orion had to be there in person? Now, he didn't know what to do.
On one side was Alexander's pressure, and on the other was his son, who was threatening to harm himself. What could he do? And most importantly, given Quinn's status, it wasn't worth falling out with Alexander.
Kyle sought Alexander's opinion again, but from his expression, it was clear there was no room for negotiation.

So, he issued Charles a final ultimatum, "Mr. William, if we don't see the divorce agreement brought by Orion within three days, we'll have to ccover ourselves." "Mr. Astor..." "Mr. William, you'd better find a way to get Orion to sign it as soon as possible." With that, Kyle hung up and then glanced awkwardly at Alexander.
Ignoring him, Alexander pushed open the ward door and walked in.
Quinn was lying on the bed, bored, with her phone propped up on the headboard, watching a cartoon that Olivia had found for her. She was so engrossed that she didn't notice Alexander had arrived. Alexander watched her for a while before Quinn finally turned her head and noticed him.
When Quinn him, her eyes lit up, and she quickly got up from the bed, "You're finally here. I'm so bored. When can I be discharged?" As Alexander heard her fluent speech, his expression was somewhat subtle.
She looked up at him, seemingly no different from before, but the clarity and brightness in her eyes were incredibly dazzling. She seemed more spirited and confident. X
