Chapter 514
Quinn gazed at him. Outside, the sky was somber and it had started to rain.
However, in Orion's eyes, it was a bright day. He could feel the sun behind the thick cloud.
Quinn felt bewildered. She pursed her lips but made no response. Amid the chaos, she heard a voice in her head.
"I am your brother. I will take care of you forever."
The sound of this voice, combined with Orion's, stirred a painful feeling within Quinn.
Orion didn't notice it. He glanced at the pouring rain outside.
His car was at the Kennedy's. So he decided to call Sebastian to pick him up.
He led Quinn to the lobby and sat down, his gaze fixed on her.
The way he looked at Quinn made her uneasy. So she looked outside. Clutching the marriage documents, she felt a sense of desolation as though she had lost something important.
The cold weather seemed to penetrate Quinn's being. even her breath felt icy, the chill creeping down her throat and settling in her chest, evoking a faint ache. She raised her hand, pressing it against her chest, feeling sick. Meanwhile, Orion was talking about his plans. He had no house yet. His band account was frozen by his father out of anger. He had been staying in a welfare home.
Although he sincerely wished to give Quinn a wedding, his parents were unlikely to approve it. Quinn... truth be told, besides being the foster daughter of the Kennedys, she had little else to offer.
When he heard that Wayne arranged a blind date for her, he knew that Wayne would choose someone useful for him. He wouldn't really care about Quinn's well-being.
Quinn was mute and she had a failed marriage. No wealthy families in Amber Bay would accept her because she'd bring ridicule to the family. Orion's parents, therefore, wouldn't accept her either.
Orion worried that Quinn would be mistreatment by his family. After a moment of contemplation, he made up his mind and Quinn, cautiously said, "Quinn, there is something I need to tell you. I hope you won't be upset." Quinn turned to him, her fingers tensing gradually.
Orion gritted his teeth. "I lied to Wayne earlier today. My parents weren't on a business trip. They're at home and they don't know about our marriage."

Quinn's lashes quivered, anticipating his next words, her fingers gripping.
"And, my father froze my bank account. I have little money now and I dare not take you to meet them..."
Quinn remained expressionless.
Orion heaved a slight sigh of relief, "I am afraid I can't provide the life you desire. But I still want to ask, would you like to leave Amber Bay and move to another city with me? Don't worry, I won't let you go hungry. While life may not be as luxurious as it was in Amber Bay, I will take care of you as well as I could."
After saying that, Orion fixed his gaze on her, waiting for her response. If she declined, they could get a divorce right away.
Orion knew this might inconvenience her and even appear unfair, but he saw no other solution.
With caution, Orion asked once again, "Is it okay for you?"
