Chapter 672
Alexander's expression darkened several shades as he glared at Orion, a hint of malice evident in his eyes.
Quinn, too, was startled by Alexander's intense gaze, her fingers instinctively tightening.
When Alexander glanced back at Quinn, his expression softened as if what Quinn had witnessed was merely an illusion. Alexander said, "Alright, let's go. Don't listen to his nonsense."
Quinn eyed Orion suspiciously and trailed after Alexander towards the door. Just as they were on the verge of reaching the exit, Orion, drawing upon some unknown reserve of strength, managed to break free from Sean's grasp. Orion shouted at Quinn, "Quinn! Don't trust him, he's a monster! He's already with Getty Morgan but he still won't let you go. Don't fall for his lies!"
Then he shouted at Alexander, "Alexander, if you were a true man, you would handle this situation differently. Can you let go completely? If you genuinely wanted to win her back, I'd have respect for you. But you're deceiving her. I despise you!"
Quinn trembled when she heard Getty's name.
Alexander turned to Orion, shooting him a cold glare with a hint of malice in his eyes. "Silence him," he commanded.
Sean nodded and swiftly delivered a blow to the back of Orion's head. Orion's eyes rolled back as he crumpled, motionless, onto the coffee table.
Quinn's face changed, and she looked at Alexander in panic.
"Don't worry, he's not dead." Alexander pulled Quinn into his arms, intending to take her away. Quinn kept looking back, Orion's words echoing in her mind.
Upon reflection, everything that had occurred that day, including their conversations, appeared peculiar to Quinn. She realized that it wasn't them who were abnormal, but rather herself. Quinn had seemingly forgotten too much and overlooked too many details.
No one had informed Quinn about these matters back in Sylvadora, and even during her time on the island with only Alexander, she had failed to notice. However, upon their return to Amber Bay, everything seemed to be unveiled. Thinking of these things, Quinn abruptly stopped walking, unwilling to continue.
She looked up at Alexander and gestured, "Is what he said true?"

Alexander gently brushed Quinn's cheek with his fingers, his voice soft and reassuring. "It's not true, don't let it sway you." His tone was velvety and alluring, exuding a captivating authority. "Are you going to trust a stranger instead of me?" Quinn bit her lip and glanced back at Orion, hesitation flashing in her eyes.
After a moment of silence, Quinn tightened her grip on Alexander's hand and shook her head.
Her actions proved her answer. She chose to believe Alexander.
After all, Orion was nothing more than a stranger to Quinn. At the same time, Alexander was the most significant person in her memories.
Everything Quinn could remember was related to Alexander. He had been so good to her; she should trust him.
Alexander smiled faintly, took Quinn's hand, and led her away.

Behind them, Orion lay unconscious, completely unaware of everything that was happening.
By the time they reached the underground garage, Quinn couldn't help but gesture, "What's the deal with Getty?"
Alexander paused, looking deeply into Quinn's eyes.
Quinn looked up, waiting for Alexander's answer.
After a moment, Alexander said with a faint smile. "She's not important."
Quinn frowned, not understanding what he meant by "not important."
Alexander said, "Alright, don't think about it. Get in the car."
Alexander pushed her into the car, not giving her another chance to ask
Sitting in the passenger seat, Quinn's mind was filled with questions, Orion's words reverberating in her thoughts. Once Alexander joined her in the car, Quinn posed another inquiry, "Did I truly lose my memory?"
