Chapter 888
Upon hearing that, Quinn quickly clarified, "I don't mean to rush you."
Walter asked, "Then what is it? You don't call just to chat, right?"
Quinn went silent, thinking about her two brothers.
Walter pressed, "Why aren't you saying anything?"
Quinn couldn't hold back anymore. "Alexander told me I might have two brothers who are still alive. Do you know anything about that?" She was desperate for answers.
Walter chuckled, "You still believe him?"
"I hope it's true," Quinn replied.
Walter reassured her. "Don't overthink it. Focus on recovering your health. I promise I'll take you and Appara away."
His tone was gentle, and Quinn could tell he was sincere.
She realized she shouldn't trust Alexander. Even if her brothers were alive, they were just leverage for him.
Alexander only mentioned having clues, not that he found them. Therefore, one she left, she could investigate herself. With that thought, she steadied herself, ended the call, pulled out the needle from her hand, and got out of bed.
She hadn't eaten all day and was starving.
With hope in her heart, her mood lifted.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
She knew she couldn't be a burden to Walter when they left. She needed to get her health back.
In her current weak state, even walking was hard, let alone leaving Amber Bay.
When Olivia saw her coming down, she hurried over. "Mrs. Kennedy, you're awake?"
Quinn nodded. "Don't call me Mrs. Kennedy."

Olivia smiled awkwardly and changed the subject, "Are you hungry? I'll heat some food."
"Okay, thank you," Quinn replied.
Seeing her willing to eat, Olivia beamed and went to the kitchen.
She quickly brought out freshly made food and a bowl of dark, murky medicine.
Quinn sat in the dining room eating. She was so hungry that everything tasted good. Even the unpleasant-smelling medicine nearby didn't affect her appetite.
Olivia watched her eat with a loving expression.
When Olivia looked up, she saw Alexander approaching. Just as she was about to greet him, Alexander raised his hand to stop her.
Olivia then silently closed her mouth, took Alexander's coat, and left the dining room.
Alexander entered and saw Quinn eating a drumstick, her back to him.

Quinn was engrossed in her meal, not noticing him.
After finishing one drumstick, she picked up the last one on the table.
Alexander leaned against the door, quietly watching her.
After finishing the last drumstick, Quinn burped contentedly. She wiped her hands and glanced at the bowl of medicine.
After hesitating for a while, she picked up the bowl, took a deep breath, and drank it all in one go.
As she swallowed the last mouthful, she abruptly put the bowl down on the table, covered her mouth with both hands, and clenched her teeth to keep from throwing up.
Despite her efforts, her stomach convulsed. She had to swallow the medicine repeatedly, which was more painful than vomiting.
Some medicine dripped from her fingers onto the floor. She kept her eyes shut, cold sweat forming on her forehead.
However, she endured it all without making a sound.
