Chapter 1134 Getting eyeballed by Alexander made it impossible for Quinn to shoot off a text.
After a bit, Quinn stashed her phone, got up, and strolled out.
With no bags, she walked straight out of the airport and flagged down a cab.
Sitting in the back, she glanced back and saw she'd left Alexander behind. He was still standing there with his crutch, waiting for a ride. She turned away, not wanting to think about him, and pulled out her phone, unsure how to text Walter.
She had planned to sneak away, but now everyone knew where she was headed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs she hesitated, Walter suddenly called, making her jump and almost drop her phone.
Quinn stared at the caller ID, took a few deep breaths, and then slowly swiped to answer. "Did you get there?" Walter asked.
His voice was calm, but that didn't mean he wasn't pissed.
Quinn stayed quiet for a moment before answering.
"Are you coming back?" Walter asked.
She suddenly didn't know what to say, her fingers gripping the phone so hard they turned white.
If Walter had yelled at her, she wouldn't be so torn.
"So, you're really going back to Alexander?" Walter asked again.
"No," Quinn denied immediately, instinctively explaining, "I planned to calone. He followed on his own." Walter chuckled lightly on the other end, saying, "No need to explain. I believe you. Have fun, and cback whenever you're done." Quinn fell silent.
Walter had already hung up and tossed his phone onto the couch.
Quinn sat in the car, lost in thought for a long tuntil the driver spoke up, "We're here, Miss." She snapped back to reality, took out her phone to pay, and pushed open the car door to get out.
The weather in Sylvadora was awesome-sunny and bright.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe looked at the abandoned villa ahead. The tall wild grass around it was lush and green, with colorful flowers blooming among them. If you ignored the villa, it looked pretty nice. Quinn parted the weeds, and various bugs crawled through the soil, including centipedes with many legs, which freaked her out and made her step back.
She swallowed hard, moved to another spot, and parted the weeds again. There were still bugs, sof them writhing and squirming in clusters, making her feel sick. Quinn looked up at the villa, which was so close yet separated by this patch of grass.
She tried to recall old memories, hoping to use sadness to drive away her fear.
But honestly, memories from before she was five were too distant. She couldn't remember most of them, even the fragments that remained were super vague. She couldn't even remember her family's faces.
Quinn closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and mustered the courage to part the weeds again. She steeled herself and stepped forward, trying to cross over the bugs. However, as soon as her toe touched the soil, something unknown scurried across her foot, causing her to scream and step back several paces, nearly falling onto the road. She patted her chest, trying to calm herself down.
The last tshe came, she hadn't encountered any of this. It seemed she had cat the wrong time, this season was when plants we were growing, and all sorts of bugs were emerging. There might even be snakes deeper in. She spent a long tbuilding up her courage but still couldn't bring herself to go in. After hesitating for a while, she decided to visit the cemetery to pay her respects to her parents first.
Just as she took out her phone to call a car, she heard the sound of a car approaching from a distance. She looked up and saw a taxi speeding towards her.
She put down her phone and watched as the car cto a steady stop in front of her.
She had almost no doubt about who would get out of the car.
