Chapter 655
Quinn sobbed uncontrollably, unable to defend herself.
Walter declared that Quinn deserved to die, that she should die. In that moment, Quinn even questioned her worthiness to live. As Walter observed Quinn on the ground, weeping inconsolably, a cruel smirk danced across his lips. Alexander, who had managed to approach them, stooped down to lift Quinn up from the ground. With a subtle frown on his face, he turned to Walter, appearing displeased that Walter had caused Quinn to cry. Alexander shouted, "Are you crazy?"
Walter shrugged, appearing indifferent. "I didn't say anything. Besides, she'll forget soon. It's not important."
With that, Walter turned and departed from the cemetery. As the sky darkened, Walter's silhouette flickered in and out amidst the gravestones, until finally fading away.
Quinn lay in Alexander's arms, tears streaming down her face. Just moments ago, she was joyfully dancing in a field of flowers. In an instant, she became an orphan, completely alone in the world. Now, the only thing Quinn had left was Alexander.
Quinn held onto Alexander tightly, as if he were her only hope. If he were to ever leave her, Quinn felt that she would have nothing left.
Every memory she held dear centered around him, making Alexander her entire world. As he comforted her by stroking her back and reassuring her, "Stop crying, I'm still here."
Tears welled up in Quinn's eyes as she gazed at Alexander.
Finally, she spoke, "Alexander, please don't go." Alexander's gaze shifted to Quinn's hand before he gently held her face and whispered, "No, as long as you comply, I won't leave you."
Quinn nodded eagerly, gesturing with her fingers, "I'll behave and follow your instructions. I'll do everything you ask.
Quinn gestured with tears streaming down her face, her fingers moving frantically as if trying to reassure herself that she could stay composed.
She was fearful of any hesitation, worried that Alexander might not trust her. Alexander's hand gently caressed Quinn's cheek before pulling her into his embrace.
With her cheek pressed against Alexander's chest, she listened to his steady heartbeat and caught a hint of gardenias on his clothing. The erratic beating of her own heart gradually subsided.
Quinn cried for a long time before gradually calming down.
Alexander and Quinn walked hand in hand as they departed the cemetery. Overgrown with weeds, much like the mansion, the cemetery had only a few rows of tombstones peeking out from the grass, swaying gently in the wind.
As the couple walked away, the cemetery fell back into its quiet stillness. The tombstones stood solemnly in the fading light, their dark shapes contrasting against the lush green surroundings.
Once in the car, Alexander handed Quinn a bottle of water.
Quinn took the mineral water and drank a few sips before Alexander started the car and drove away.
Alexander and Quinn went back to the hospital, not the one where Alexander had been staying, but the one where Quinn had received treatment previously.

The old doctor was still celebrating Christmas Day at home when the General brought him to the hospital. He looked quite displeased.
The first thing the old doctor did was to have Quinn take an X-ray.
Then, he discussed the recent condition with Alexander.
The doctor looked puzzled. "You mean, her memory is stuck at ten years old now."
Alexander nodded slightly. "Yes."
The doctor asked, "Since when?"
Alexander thought for a moment, " It has been over half a month now. Currently, her memory each day is back to normal. She no longer wakes up forgetting the events of the previous day like she used to."
