At first, Quin was skeptical about going close to the box, but his curiosity couldn’t let him stay away from it.Slowly, he stood up while his eyes were still on the box, and then he moved quietly.Just before he bent down to pick up the box, the inscription stopped glowing, but the box remained open while he picked it up and looked to see what was inside. There was a spherical stone inside, but at a glance, Quin could tell that it was not just an ordinary stone. The stone was black, but it was very shiny and had whit markings on its bottom. “What’s this?” He said with a whisper, and as he stared at the stone, he tried to see if he could recognize it.Then a knock came on the door, causing him to turn toward it at once.“I will be right out, Lady Bianca!” He knew that she was the only one who could knock on his door in that kind of manner.Slowly, he returned the stone to the box and put it inside his pocket. Then he wiped off the blood on his palm and quickly changed into something

Not long after, ten heavily armed prison wardens with cuffs arrived. They looked hungry to lock Quin and the old lady up in one of the dirty cells in the prison.“Grab those two! You know what to do with them.” Robert pointed at Quin and Lady Bianca, and the men got ready to do as they were told.“You are making a very terrible mistake, Robert,” Quin said with a warning, but Robert called him a bluff.“I am going to do to you ten times as much as I did to you the last time, Quin. I will make sure you don’t come out alive for daring to come here to make demands!” Robert said, threatening with both his hands and his eyes. “Hurry up! Grab them!” He said to his men, and they quickly began to move faster. “Do something, Quin! I don’t want to go to prison! No one will take care of Eddie if we are both locked up. I am too old to be in prison!” Lady Bianca cried out in fear, but Quin remained calm. “Stay here, don’t make any move.” He said to her, and then he took off his blue jacket and

Quin looked around, and when he was certain that there was no one watching he turned and pushed Robert to the floor.The gun fell from Robert’s hand as he fell, and Quin caught Lady Bianca before she could fall as well. “You moron!” Robert tried to grab his gun, but Quin kicked it away before he could get to it. Then he grabbed him and landed two slaps on his face.“I warned you.” Quin pushed him to the ground, and he grunted as soon as he fell with a heavy thud. He turned to look at Lady Bianca. “I think you should head back to the car and wait for me, Aunty. I will be back with your brother. What’s his name?”“Owen! His name is Owen!” Lady Bianca said loudly, and Quin nodded in response. “Go ahead, I will join you shortly.” Quin gestured to Lady Bianca as she walked away in a hurry, but that didn’t stop her from turning to stare at Quin. “Come here.” Quin grabbed Robert’s ears with both hands and dragged him into the prison.“We will take a walk, Robert. A walk into the prison.

As Quin walked away with the older prisoner who had regained his freedom, Sam did exactly as he was told and started to unlock so many cells. The prisoners who regained their freedom began to scramble out of the building, and the wardens couldn’t catch them.“Get them! Don’t let them escape!” Robert yelled, but none of the prisoners who had escaped were able to be caught.“You don’t know what you have done, Quin! I am going to come for you!” Robert barked in fury, but he was still trying to get up when he saw two prisoners heading toward him.“Chief!” One of them growled. He looked so scary with tattoos all over his body.“Stay away from me! You know who I am! I am the Chief Warden!” Robert tried to escape when he saw that the prisoners were not eager to listen to him, but two others double-crossed him as he turned to flee.The angry escapees grabbed him, took him down, and began to beat him just like the other guards.Some they killed, and some others they inflicted with so many inj

Lady Bianca wasn’t sure of what to do at that moment.She stared at the lady while cautiously keeping a distance from her.At that moment, Quin was inside the mansion with her brother, whom she had taken inside to get some rest.“Who are you?” Lady Bianca managed to ask, but the lady didn’t say anything. “What did you do to him to deserve such anger?” She added, asking the question that was almost impossible to answer. She almost got upset that the lady seemed to be taking so long to give her an answer, but she decided to remain calm since she seemed very desperate. “You have to tell me the truth if you want me to help you.” Lady Bianca broke the silence between them, eyes still on the lady who was still sniffling while she struggled to control her tears. “My name is Viola Edison.” The lady managed to speak, and then she cleared her throat while the old lady paid keen attention.“Okay? You still haven’t answered the second question I asked you, Viola. What did you do to my nephew

Quin was angry that Viola was still there, but he couldn’t say no to Lady Bianca even though he was annoyed that she had to intervene.“Fine. I will listen to hear what you have to say, but you have just five minutes.” Quin started walking back to the mansion, and both Viola and the old lady followed him at once.When she got into the mansion, Viola marveled at how amazing the interior was. It was hard for her to tell which was more beautiful between the inside or the outside of the mansion.“Take a set and start talking. You have four minutes and thirty seconds left.” Quin said coldly, and Viola did as he had instructed.“I am sorry, Quin. I had no choice.”“We always have a choice, Viola. What you did was wrong.”“But I didn’t know that they wanted to kill you. They promised to pay me some money if I helped them. They said that you took something from them.” Viola wasn’t sure if Quin was going to believe what she said, but she hoped that he would. “I am sorry, Quin. I never meant

The men were armed, and from every indication, they had no other intention but to stop Quin and Viola from getting close to the child. Viola could see her son through the windows, and it looked like the nurses were trying to make preparations to take him away. “My son! My son, Quin!” She screamed, and when she tried to move to the door, one of the men stood in the way with a scary look on his face.“They want to take my son!” She cried, and Quin gestured to her to remain calm.“Do you know these men?” He asked, and she shook her head while tears continued to trickle down her face.“I have never seen them in my life! But they are going to take my son away from me!” Viola tried to make another move, but the men insisted on blocking the way.“Stay here.” Quin pointed to a corner of the hallway, and then he decided to speak to the men in a polite tone.“What do you want with that child?” He asked, but he got no response. “That’s his mother over there. We are here to take him away, and n

The nurse tried to stay calm, but it was still obvious to Quin that she was afraid of someone.“What happened here?” Quin asked again, but he tried not to scare her with his compelling voice. “I don’t know, I swear! Those men came in and sent everyone away! Then they asked me to get the baby after they gave me something to inject into his body.”“And you didn’t even know what it was?”“I am sorry, Sir! They threatened to kill me!” The nurse sobbed, but Quin was still offended because he knew that everyone had a choice.“This is wrong,” He sighed, and then he looked around slowly before he returned his gaze to the nurse.“What’s your name?”“Anna..” She responded quickly, her voice still shaky even after she had taken a deep breath. “Anna? I need you to tell me everything that has been going on in this place. Tell me if there have been any suspicious movements in this place over the past few days. I am not going to hurt you, I promise.” “Are you sure?” Anna asked. She had seen so mu

The look on Viola’s face showed that she was not ready to provide the answer to the question she was asked. “The nurse back at the hospital said that his father sent those men to get him. Tell us who the father is, I am sure it can lead us to something.” Quin insisted, wondering why Viola found it very difficult to speak. “Talk to us, Viola.” Lady Bianca said, and then she moved closer to Viola and held onto her arm. “Tell us who the father is. Don’t be afraid, Quin here will make sure nothing happens to both of you.”“Mm-hmm.” Quin nodded to affirm the old lady’s words, and Viola nodded. She cleared her throat as though she was about to say something, but she ended up pointing at Quin while she struggled to look into his eyes. “Why are you pointing at him?” Lady Bianca asked, and Viola turned to face her.But she said nothing, even though her eyes showed that she had a lot of things going on in her mind.“Who is the father, Viola? That’s what we want to know. I don’t know why you

At Lesley Krait’s mansion, Quin remained seated inside the car for a while after he had turned off the engine.“Is everything alright? Why are we still in the car?” Viola asked after seeing that Quin had been inside the car for so long without making a move or even saying anything.“I cant believe that I have a son.” Quin said with a voice that almost sounded like a whisper.“Who could have thought?” He sighed softly, turning to face Viola who had nothing to say to him at that moment. “What’s his name?” Quin asked, getting rid of the silence that had endured for a while.“Cole, his name is Cole,” Viola said and Quin chuckled softly.“That’s the name we said we were going to give our son if we got married.” “Yeah. You remembered.” Viola smiled, but her smile didn’t last for so long.“There!” She pointed at the four men walking out of the mansion. “Lesley…” Quin grunted the moment he set his eyes on the man they had come to see.“We need to hurry, Quin. He is on his way out!” Viola w
