Chapter 1565

Earlier, Alexander had promised to take them on a trip, but it hadn't happened yet. Now, seeing the sights of this city, Quinn suddenly got the itch to explore more places. But man, the prices here were insane. They picked two random restaurants to eat at, and even though they didn't look fancy, they ended up dropping over five grand. When it was time to pay, Quinn noticed there were less than five dishes on the table and started to wonder.

Alexander nudged her. "What are you doing? Pay the bill."

Quinn snapped out of it and quickly pulled out her phone to pay, still wondering if they got ripped off. After they left the restaurant, she asked quietly, "Did we get ripped off?"

Alexander glanced back at the place. "Maybe that's just how prices are here."

Quinn smirked. "Who even lives in a place like this?"

"People like Calvin," Alexander replied.

Quinn was taken aback. Suddenly, the scenery didn't seem so great anymore.

"Alright, it's getting late. Let's head back to the hotel. It's not safe out here at night," Alexander suggested.

Quinn nodded and followed him back to the hotel.

The area was pretty nice, and the hotel looked clean enough.

Meanwhile, Abigail and Calvin were sitting in a room, all three looking serious.

"I've decided to head back the day after tomorrow. What about you guys? Want to come along?" Abigail asked.

Cruz glanced at Calvin, clearly waiting for his call.

Calvin frowned and stayed quiet, lost in thought.

Ever since they went out yesterday, he seemed distracted, like something was bugging him.

Seeing him spaced out, Abigail asked again, "Calvin, I'm talking to you."

"Huh?" Calvin looked up blankly, realizing he hadn't heard a word.

Abigail sighed and repeated, "I'm planning to go back the day after tomorrow. Do you want to go back too? Maybe see Quinn."

Calvin shook his head. "No, I'm not leaving."

Abigail gave him a weird look. "Didn't you say yesterday that the seafood made you sick?"

Calvin chuckled. "Did I?"

Abigail and Cruz exchanged glances.

Cruz tentatively asked, "Boss, is something wrong? You seem a bit off."

Calvin's expression was odd. Under their stares, he grew a bit anxious.

He stood up and said, "I'm a bit tired. I'm going to sleep."
