Chapter 1449 Quinn was pretty bored those days. Alexander was always out, and she was stuck at halone. Abigail didn't want to cover either since she and Alexander didn't get along. Quinn had no clue what Abigail was up to. It seemed like she didn't know anyone around here, yet she was out every day.
Quinn's mind drifted to Landon, but she quickly snapped out of it.
She was pushing Sprout around the neighborhood when Walter called out of the blue. It had been a while since she last heard from him.
She plopped down on a bench and answered the call.
"Why are you calling me?" Quinn asked.
Walter chuckled. "Such a big event, of course, I want the inside scoop." "How would I know?" Quinn replied, guessing he was talking about the chief engineer's assassination.
Quinn really had no idea about that.
"Then what's the deal with you selling the company to Landon?" Walter pressed.
Quinn was caught off guard. "There's no story." "Do you think I believe that? I've been busting my butt at the company, and you just handed it over to Landon. Quinn, you really letdown," Walter said.
Quinn shot back, "Instead of worrying every day that you might mess things up, it's better to just give it away." Walter laughed. "Fine, you're so suspicious of me. I helped you so much, and yet in your heart, I'm not as good as Landon." Quinn went silent, not sure what to say.
Walter said, "Forget it. Do what you want. By the way, Alexander is really dragging his feet. Can he hurry up and take down the Lynch family? If he can't, letdo it." "You know about that?" Quinn asked, surprised.
Walter laughed in a way that made her uneasy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBefore Quinn could say anything else, he hung up.
The relationship between Walter and Alexander was really weird. One moment they were fighting, the next they were on the sside.
But compared to Walter, Alexander didn't have as much beef with the Lynch family. Alexander just had a personal grudge against Aron.
If Walter wanted to go after the Lynch family, Alexander probably wouldn't stop him.
Just as she was lost in thought, Alexander drove up.
He parked next to Quinn and rolled down the window. "What are you doing here?" Quinn looked up at him. "Just taking a walk." Alexander parked the car and got out to help her push the stroller.
Alexander had said he'd help with diapers in the future. But now, he was nowhere to be seen every day. Quinn couldn't help but complain, "Have you been super busy lately?" Alexander touched her hair. "Are you mad?" Quinn mumbled, "No." Alexander remarked, "Still so stubborn." Quinn turned her head away, not wanting to talk to him.
After they got back to the villa, Alexander suddenly asked her, "Can you get in touch with Landon?" Quinn paused.
Alexander said, "Don't worry, he still has suse." That meant he wouldn't harm Landon.
Quinn nodded. "Yeah." Alexander said, "Call him. I need to talk to him." Quinn took out her phone, found Landon's number, and dialed it, then handed the phone to Alexander.
Alexander took the phone and walked out. Quinn watched his back, unsure of what conversation he was going to have.
But she didn't follow him.
She pushed Sprout to the kitchen; it was tto cook.
Alexander was on the phone outside for a few minutes, then cback and handed the phone back to Quinn. He hugged her from behind. "What are you cooking?" "Whatever we have. Take Sprout out first," Quinn ordered. Alexander let go of her and pushed Sprout out.
A few days later, Aron caved to Zeke's demands; he agreed to go to court and take the fall for the incident. Plagiarism, murder, and killing a foreign elite-these were heavy charges. Taking it to the international court meant the Lynch family couldn't control the outcome.
The compensation would be astronomical, and the Lynch family couldn't afford it even if they sold everything. In the next few days, the Lynch family had to use their power to sever all ties with Aron's assets and himself, making him an independent individual.
His fate would either be the death penalty or life imprisonment.
All these actions required Aron's cooperation; otherwise, it would be impossible to clear the relationship in such a short time.
With Aron's agreement, everything went smoothly.
Once everything was settled, Aron went to the international court.
Luke also went along. He didn't even know that such a big thing had happened while he was detained.
He had never thought that someone would use such a cunning method. They didn't have tto pay attention to a company on the verge of bankruptcy and didn't care about it.
The small oversight allowed someone to exploit the opportunity. The people in the company, eager to turn things around, accepted a mysterious USB drive, which ultimately took down Aron, such a big player. This wasn't something Alexander could do alone.
Luke was right.
The collaboration between Walter and Alexander, along with Quinn's accidental involvement, led to the current situation.
These days, Alexander had sfree time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe spent every day with Quinn, fulfilling his promise to change diapers and feed Sprout daily.
Quinn held a fruit platter, eating fruit with a toothpick, while Alexander fed Sprout. The TV in front of them was showing Aron's trial.
Quinn didn't know where Alexander found the channel.
"Is Aron done for this time?" Quinn asked.
"Hard to say," Alexander replied, taking out a handkerchief to wipe Sprout's mouth. This little guy always spilled milk. Sprout didn't like being wiped. He shook his head and mumbled, "Dada. Dada." He called "Dada" so smoothly now but still wouldn't say "Mama." Alexander cleared his throat, took the bottle away from Sprout, and said to him, "Say Mama." "Dada." Alexander glanced at Quinn, who was looking at him with a resentful expression.
He forced a smile. "I'm trying my best to teach him." Quinn took a bite of an apple and turned to watch the TV.
She really hoped that Aron would completely fall this tso they could go home.
The evidence was conclusive, and Aron confessed. He knew that apart from the people who framed him, Future Era also harbored a deep hatred for him. Their hatred was so intense that they had lost their minds. Just an announcement from the Vitex Group was enough to make Future Era want to tear him apart, especially since their chief engineer died because of this. "Say Mama, and I'll give you the bottle."
Alexander patiently taught Sprout, but Sprout wouldn't listen. He cried loudly, trying to grab the bottle. "Dada, Dada." Sprout was anxious and cried loudly.
Quinn's eyelid twitched. "What are you doing?" Alexander silently handed the bottle back to Sprout.
Sprout held the bottle, sniffling.
A childish voice suddenly rang out, "Mama." Quinn was slightly stunned and looked at Sprout.
At the stime, the live broadcast on TV suddenly changed.
