Chapter 529
The bodyguard was stunned.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Orion was also stunned. Then he smiled, his smile somewhat manic. "I hit the mark. You're angry, Alexander. You deserve it!"
Alexander glanced over, and the bodyguard immediately covered Orion's mouth.
Orion, still unwilling to give up, cursed, but the sound that came out turned into a sob.
The bodyguard picked up the blood-stained dagger, ready to cut off Orion's tongue.
Just as Alexander turned around, his coat was suddenly tugged.
He turned around. It was Quinn.
Quinn held onto his coat, tears blurring in her eyes as she stared at him. In her clear blue eyes, besides the distance, there was also fear toward him.
Alexander gripped her wrist, pulled her into his arms, lifted her chin with another hand, and said softly, "Are you afraid of me?"
He chuckled, his fingertip caressing her chin, his tone incredibly ambiguous. "It's okay; being afraid of me isn't a bad thing anyway."
"You won't remember this tomorrow."
Quinn's pupils slightly contracted, tears streaming down heavily, and she shook her head desperately.
Ignoring her pleas, Alexander looked sideways at the bewildered bodyguard and decisively said, "Take action."
Quinn suddenly widened her eyes, gripping Alexander's sleeve tightly. Her knuckles turned white, and tears streamed down heavily.
Seeing the man unmoved, she pushed Alexander away, rushed to Orion, grabbed the bodyguard's arm, and looked at him impXavierngly.
The bodyguard was momentarily hesitant, but he turned to look at Alexander, seemingly waiting for his instructions.
Alexander had already sat back in his chair, looking indifferently at the two on the ground.
Quinn turned back tearfully to look at him, gesturing with her hand, ";Please spare him; it's all my fault. I am the one who wants to marry him, and I'm the one who should leave; it has nothing to do with him." Seeing this, Orion, with red eyes, said, "Quinn, don't plead for him! Let him kill me directly!"
Quinn anxiously glanced at him, wanting to stop him from speaking, then pleaded with Alexander, hoping he would spare Orion.
She and Orion were not close, but she never expected to bring disaster upon Orion; it was she who implicated Orion.
From the beginning, she should never have agreed to marry Orion. He was a good person, and Quinn couldn't bear to see him implicated because of her.
Alexander's lips curled with a hint of coldness, a touch of anger in his eyes.
"You seem to like him very much; in that case, I cannot let him go even more." "Kill him."
As these two words were spoken, everyone present was shocked, including Kyle.
Kyle looked at Alexander in astonishment; this man seemed truly insane, brazenly committing murder in this kind of place, not to mention William; even Landon's people wouldn't let him off. Wasn't this giving those people an opportunity?

Alexander seemed not to hear him, his eyes fixed on the bodyguard, "Move!
Quinn looked at him in disbelief, her face filled with astonishment and fear, tears winding down her cheeks.
If she hadn't seen it with her eyes, she would never have believed that the Alexander she knew would say such cruel words.
The bodyguard no longer hesitated; he grabbed Orion's hair, the sharp knife approaching Orion's neck.
Orion was also dumbfounded. He didn't expect Alexander to actually have the audacity kill him, unsure whether he had lost his mind or become too arrogant.
This was the first time Orion felt the threat of death. Subconsciously, he closed his eyes, giving up on struggling.
His only thought was that even if he died, he would become a ghost haunting Alexander every day, making sure he never lived happily and peacefully.
But after waiting for a moment, he didn't feel the expected pain.
