Chapter 1486
Alexander rubbed his temples and let out a heavy sigh. "My head's killing me. | can't think straight."
He wasn't just talking about a regular headache; it felt like someone was drilling into his brain. It was all he could
focus on. "You little punk," Calvin said, clicking his tongue. "I'll check back in a couple of months then."
"Alright," Alexander replied.
Calvin added, "I'll just hang tight for now. The Lynch family won't be done for in two months." Alexander shot
back, "As long as you don't stir the pot, they won't be done for in two years." Calvin clicked his tongue again.
"Fine. I'm hanging up."
He quickly ended the call. Alexander glanced at his phone, tossed it onto the sofa, and grabbed the painkillers
from the table.
Calvin had initially thought about getting back at Alexander, telling him the side effects of the meds would last
forever. If Alexander hadn't needed Calvin's help tonight, he wouldn't have found out the side effects only lasted
for the first two months.
Calvin wasn't dumb; he just didn't like overthinking things. He knew how to weigh his options, otherwise, he
would've teamed up with Walter long ago.
When Alexander said he couldn't think, it was a jab at the situation. He could think about it but chose not to tell
Calvin.
Quinn was waiting for Alexander downstairs. She had no appetite and asked Olivia to clear the table after just a
few bites. Alexander spent the night in the study again.
Quinn tossed and turned all night. At dawn, she went to the study, wanting to have a serious talk with Alexander.
His odd behavior last night had her puzzled, making her feel like something was definitely off.
She hesitated at the door for a moment, and suddenly the study door swung open.
Alexander walked out, saw Quinn, and paused. He checked his watch. "Up early. What's up?"
Quinn replied, "I couldn't sleep. We need to talk."
Alexander stared at her for a moment and then said, "Calvin calledlast night."
Quinn's attention shifted immediately. "What happened with him?"
Alexander replied, "Something cup on his end. | need to go to Municity. We'll talk when | get back."
Quinn frowned. "What happened? Is it serious?"
Alexander placed his hands on her shoulders and said seriously, "Don't worry. As long as I'm there, it won't be
serious."
Quinn looked at him suspiciously. His eyes were sincere, and he didn't seem to be lying.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlexander said, "Take good care of Sprout and Brandy at home. I'll be back soon."
"How long will you be gone?" Quinn asked.
"Not long, a month or two," Alexander replied.
Quinn pressed her lips tightly. This separation wasn't as long as their previous ones, but they had only just
reunited. Plus, Alexander had once gone missing in Municity for over a year without a word, leaving her deeply
scarred. She wasn't keen on Alexander going away again.
But since it involved Calvin, she was torn. She didn't know whether to stop Alexander or not. Alexander was
about to pack his things when Quinn grabbed him. "Will you cback safely?" Alexander paused, looked back
at her, and held her hand, comforting her. "I will, | promise."
Quinn opened her mouth but didn't know what to say, so she silently let go of him.
It seemed Alexander couldn't stay idle at home. He had been gloomy last night, but now that he was going to
Municity, he seemed normal again.
Alexander left in a hurry, not even having breakfast. Quinn, worried, decided to follow him to the airport. She
instructed Olivia to look after the two kids and went to the airport with Alexander, watching him enter the
security checkpoint. Alexander had mulled it over before deciding to track down Calvin. At first, he didn't leave
because he figured there was no point in hiding. He couldn't spend his life dodging Quinn; she'd find out
eventually. Might as well delay it as long as possible.
But Calvin's call last night almost made him lose his cool. He decided to find Calvin, not to help him, but to settle
the score.
Calvin was pretty stoked knowing Alexander was coming. He was even a bit touched that Alexander was coming
to help him despite being sick. After all, apart from their connection through Quinn, they didn't have much of a
relationship. Calvin personally went to the airport to pick up Alexander, pacing back and forth at the arrival gate.
He suddenly asked his subordinate, "Why does my left eye keep twitching?"
"Boss, you're gonna get rich!" his subordinate replied.
Although Calvin didn't believe in such superstitions, he liked hearing it. He patted the subordinate's shoulder
appreciatively. "Well said!"
As they were chatting, the subordinate pointed excitedly at the airport. "Boss, Alexander's here."
Calvin turned to look. There weren't many people at the airport, and he spotted Alexander right away. Alexander
was wearing a dark shirt, pulling a black suitcase, walking towards them.
Calvin, wearing sunglasses, pulled them down to get a better look. Alexander walked steadily, not showing any
signs of weakness. But as he got closer, his pale, sickly complexion becobvious.
Calvin quickly pushed his sunglasses back up. After all, he couldn't wear a mask to pick Alexander up, so he had
to use sunglasses to cover his charming eyes.
Alexander walked up to him and smiled. "Calvin."
Then he sized up Calvin. He had only
seen photos of Calvin and had never
met him in person. Now, Calvin Was
wearing gungipeseSisbiaing only

As he spoke, he put his arm around Alexander's shoulder. "Con. The car's outside."
Alexander followed him and asked, "Is Walter still here?"

After getting in the car, Calvin crossed his legs and asked Alexander, "Did you chere to avoid Quinn or to
help me?"
Alexander smiled faintly. "Of course, I'm here to help you. If | wanted to hide, | wouldn't need to chere."
"That's true. So, what do you have in mind?" Calvin asked.
Alexander said, "I thought carefully about what you said last night. If you want to completely break free without
relying on anyone, the best way is..."
Calvin stared at him intently. "What is it?"
Alexander replied, "Change your identity and abandon everything you have now."
