Chapter 871
The setting sun was somewhat blinding. Quinn wrapped her arms around Walter's neck and softly called out from his back. "Lucas."
Walter's steps faltered. After a few seconds, he responded.
A smile spread across Quinn's face.
She thought, 'He finally admits it.'
She hugged him tighter and murmured, "I'm sorry."
"Sorry for what?" Walter asked.
"I forgot everything, leaving you to bear all that pain alone. Please don't be mad at me, okay?"
After a brief pause, she could now speak in complete sentences, though her voice was weak and not very clear.
She thought, 'When he kidnapped me, he must have been so angry and disappointed. If it had been Sophia and Henry, they would have been even more disappointed.'
Quinn couldn't imagine how he had gotten through these years and what he had endured.
Walter's eyes flickered. He looked at the setting sun ahead, remaining silent.
He just carried her, walking on the uneven dirt road.
Quinn was a bit tired. She rested her face on Walter's shoulder and slowly closed her eyes.
Before falling asleep, she vaguely heard Walter say,
"Do you not hate me?"
Walter recalled in his mind, 'I personally took you to Kennedy Residence and aborted your child. At that time, I was so angry. I even wanted to strangle you. I hate you for carrying Alexander's child.' Unfortunately, Quinn did not answer.
As they were about to finish this stretch of road, several black cars sped towards them, blocking their way.
Kyle got out of the car with his men. He looked at Quinn on Walter's back and frowned.
"Mr. Smith, Mr. Kennedy sent me to bring you back." Kyle spoke.

Walter chuckled, his face returning to his signature smile.
"It seems that if we don't go back, you're prepared to take strong measures."
Kyle advised kindly, "Mr. Smith, you should be aware of Mr. Kennedy's temperament. If he doesn't let you go, you won't be able to leave."
"So, don't make futile struggles."
Walter pondered for a moment and then smiled faintly. "Then I'll trouble you."
He wasn't a fool. Now, outnumbered, he wouldn't forcibly resist Kyle.
Even if he wanted to leave, he had to plan everything carefully. At the very least, he had to make sure Alexander could never find Quinn in this lifetime. That would be a true departure.
He placed Quinn in the car, got in, and went back with Kyle.
However, he couldn't enter Regal Riverside and was stopped by the bodyguards outside.

Soren examined Quinn's body and then turned to Alexander, saying, "Mr. Kennedy, Quinn has some superficial injuries, but nothing serious."
"Her body is weak and needs proper care."
Alexander sat on the sofa, his usual cold eyes fixed on Soren.
"Now that she remembers everything, will she still fall into the same deep sleep as before?"
Soren thought for a moment and shook his head. "I can't guarantee that. We'll know with further observation."
"Interestingly, she can remember. This means she doesn't have true Alzheimer's. It should be pseudo-dementia caused by brain trauma and excessive stress."
Soren had researched a lot on this topic recently and came to this conclusion.
"This pseudo-dementia, when severe, indeed resembles Alzheimer's."
He continued, "I had suspected this some time ago. Logically, her memory had regressed to when she was five years old. She shouldn't remember anything or anyone, but she remembers very clearly, with coherent behavior and speech."
