At five in the morning, | was startled awake by a nightmare. Theo was not beside me, and | picked up m y phone

The phone rang seemingly forever before Tyler asked i n a hoarse voice, "Wandy, what's up?"
| took a deep breath. "Never mind, I'll text you."

for him to help keep an eye on Quinn.
When | heard the bedroom door opening, | put my phone down, lay back down, and pretended | had never
woken up.
The public was in an uproar when news of Matthew's death broke out.
Quinn could not avoid being brought into the limelight because of how the father, son, and wife had all died one
after the other in such a short period. Everyone was wondering if she was the one who killed them because she
wanted to get Zimmer Corporations for herself.
Of course, not only did Quinn have to face questions from the public but she also needed to be investigated by
the police.
She could not go to the Grant household or Grant Corporation. She was also being monitored by the police, so

| narrowed my eyes and asked coldly, "What do you want?"
"Are you in such a rush to leave?" Quinn laughed coldly. "Matthew is already dead. Who are you in such a rush to
meet?"
My pupils narrowed slightly, and | resisted the urge to reach out and grab my hair. In a cold voice, | said, "I told
you this in the hospital before. I'll rip your mouth off your face if you ever utter Matthew's name. This is the first
time, so I'm just giving you a warning. I'll do a s | say if it ever happens again.”
