Through a veil of tears, Quinn looked up to see Walter's cruel smile."Are you still holding out hope for him to

rescue you?" he taunted.Quinn was rooted to the spot.

Walter crouched before her, ruthlessly shattering her illusions. "Do you understand why we're in this situation?"

Quinn's breath hitched, her gaze locked onto him."Do you really not understand?""Those three days you

vanished, do you think he was unable to locate you?"

He leaned in, his voice a soft whisper. "No, he knew exactly where you were. He simply chose not to cfor

you. He was laying a trap for me."

A chuckle escaped Walter as he toyed with a lock of her hair. "You poor, naive girl, your presence here is all his

doing."Tears spilled from Quinn's eyes, like pearls slipping from a string, splashing onto the plate beneath her

chin."Do you want to know what he's doing now?""He's likely preparing for the shareholders' meeting the day

after tomorrow.

He's occupied with trying to overthrow his father, plotting his sister's downfall, and as for you, well, you'll have to

wait your turn."

Quinn clutched the plate tightly, her chest rising and falling rapidly."Now, if he wants to negotiate withfor

your sake, he knows he can't meet my demands.""So, it's simpler to just cast you aside, effectively refusing to

negotiate with me.""But that's to be expected. What's a woman worth in the face of personal gain? He may have

feelings for you, but he wouldn't sacrifice everything he has for you, would he?"She knew she shouldn't believe

Walter's words, yet they seemed to pierce her heart relentlessly.

Like shards of glass stabbing her heart, each bite Quinn took was a stab of hollow pain. She sat with her head

bowed, mechanically eating the tasteless food, indifferent to its flavor yet unable to stop. Walter squatted beside

her, silently observing as she finished her meal.

After a moment, Quinn sniffled, set her plate on the floor, and lifted her tear-streaked, reddened eyes to meet

Walter's gaze. The twilight outside faded, casting a dim haze inside the room. Walter tenderly stroked her cheek,

wiping away the tear that clung to her eyelash.

In that moment, Quinn was reminded of Alexander's similar gestures, which had once made her surrender to his

will tand tagain. However, it wasn't until now, with Walter's tender touch as a contrast, that she realized

how cheap and presumptuous Alexander's actions had been.

Men could be masters of deception, capable of feigning tenderness and passion even towards those they

despised. Alexander had been such a man, and so was Walter.

Eventually, Walter stood up and said, "Well, that's done."Without a backward glance, he left the room, the

untouched meal on the table still lying as it was.Quinn wiped the tears from her cheeks with her sleeve and

obediently began to clear away the dishes.
