Chapter 948
The sea breeze was chilly, making Quinn rub her arms. 'Alexander had gone nuts today, making me jump into the sea and then sit here in the wind. I really don't know what he's thinking.' Thinking about it, Quinn was momentarily stunned.
Before, she would've happily spent the night in the sea with him, let alone sitting here enjoying the wind.
In relationships, one person's confidence and mood are shaped by the other's attitude.
Now, Quinn knew he wouldn't let her go, so she wasn't anxious or cautious anymore.
Sitting here, she just thought he was crazy.
Was Getty like this before?
She finally got where Getty's arrogance and confidence came from.
Quinn lowered her head, a bitter smile on her lips.
The horizon was lightening. Quinn looked up and saw Alexander was gone.
Stunned, she quickly stood up and scanned the vast beach and ocean, but saw no sign of Alexander.
Did he walk into the sea?
Quinn was shocked and rush towards the sea without thinking.
"Alexander!" she called out.
The waves knocked her down several times. She struggled up, took off her shoes, rolled up her pants, and kept going deeper.
The water rose from her ankles to her calves, and the waves made it hard to move.
"Alexander, where are you!" Quinn shouted, but no one answered.
She thought he might have left, but in this emptiness, she would've seen him in minutes.
So, he must be in the sea!

Quinn gritted her teeth and kept going. She imagined Alexander's body floating up, making her move faster.
She stumbled and splashed in the water, now up to her waist. When the waves hit, it rose to her chest.
Quinn shouted for a long time. Exhausted, she panted, looking at the vast horizon, feeling lost.
The sky was dark red, the moon a faint shadow, and the light dim. Standing in the water, she looked like a black silhouette from a distance.
Just as Quinn was dazed, a wave hit her, making her lose balance and fall into the water.
The familiar seawater submerged her, and she struggled for a long time without getting up.
Then, a force pulled her from the water.
Quinn spat out seawater and saw Alexander smiling at her.
Her anger flared. She raised her hand to hit him, roaring, "Are you crazy! Why did you run into the sea? If you want to die, don't do it in front of me!"

Water dripped from his hair, falling down his face.
After Quinn finished scolding him, Alexander finally spoke, "Why did you run down here? Were you worried about me?"
Quinn was stunned.
She stared blankly at Alexander. Both were soaked, with wet hair sticking to their faces.
In the dim light, they could only see each other's outlines.
Quinn snapped, "No way! I'm afraid you'll die here, and I'll be blamed for murder!" Alexander chuckled.
She got angrier. "You're still laughing. Next time you want to die, don't involve me! You..." Before Quinn could finish, he pulled her into his arms and kissed her.
