Chapter 1009
Kaitlyn stopped dead in her tracks and sneered, "What's the big deal? I don't see anything special!"
If Alexander really cared about Quinn, he wouldn't be hanging out with Getty.
Oscar chimed in, "Maybe he didn't want anyone to know. When he tied the knot with Mrs. Kennedy, it was his own idea, and no one..."
Oscar suddenly realized he had spilled too much and clammed up.
Kaitlyn's face shifted, and she demanded, "What did you just say?"
Oscar awkwardly looked down, staying silent for a moment.
Kaitlyn snapped, "Oscar, what else are you hiding from me? Spill it!"
Oscar looked conflicted. "I can't say."
Kaitlyn got even more pissed. "Everyone's dead now, what can't you say? If you don't tell me, I'll go ask him myself."
Oscar looked troubled. He glanced at Kaitlyn, who was about to blow a fuse, and stammered, "I don't know much either."
Kaitlyn pressed, "Then just tell me what you do know."
Oscar sighed, looking defeated. "Back then, I was taking care of Ulysses. He asked Alexander if he had any wishes."
Oscar's eyes clouded over, and he was lost in a memory.
Back then, Ulysses was on his deathbed, and Alexander visited him almost every day.
One day, Ulysses suddenly said to Alexander, "I'm dying. I won't be able to help you anymore."
Alexander looked at Ulysses with a complicated expression, hesitating to speak.
Ulysses, being sharp, saw that Alexander had something on his mind and asked, "Got any concerns or wishes to share?"
After a moment of hesitation, Alexander finally said, "I want to marry Quinn."
Ulysses was stunned. "Do you know what you're saying?"

Alexander replied, "I know. Even though saying this will upset you, I have to. Once you're gone, they'll definitely arrange her engagement. I don't want her marrying someone else."
"Don't you have a girlfriend?" Ulysses seemed to get it and smiled bitterly. "I thought you had already moved on from her."
Alexander sighed, "I thought so too. I tried to transfer all my feelings for her to my current girlfriend, but after all this time, I just can't."
Ulysses smiled. "You're just taking advantage of the fact that I can't move to say whatever you want, aren't you?"
Alexander lowered his eyes and stayed silent.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Ulysses reminded him, "Have you really thought this through? Do you know what'll happen if you marry her? Your dad's a restless guy, and your mom, will she agree to you marrying Quinn?" Alexander said, "That's why I need your help."
Ulysses smiled bitterly. "Alexander, you better think this through. You're not strong enough yet. Marrying her would give others leverage over you. You can't protect her all the time. And her identity..."
"I know." Alexander cut him off, determination and madness flashing in his eyes. "I'll hide her well, so no one will find out. As for her identity, she might not even remember it."

He couldn't help but ask, "Alexander, I'm suddenly curious. What kind of feelings do you have for her?"
Alexander replied, "I don't know. I just know she has to be by my side."
Ulysses asked cautiously, "What if she remembers?"
Alexander stubbornly said, "Then I'll deal with it when she does."
Ulysses sighed deeply, "I can't change your mind, can I? Fine, since you're so determined, I won't push you. I can help you, but you must promise me you won't put her on a pedestal and won't do anything that would shame our family!" Alexander rubbed his fingers and said in a deep voice, "I understand."
Ulysses commanded, "Oscar, call everyone in. I have something to say."
After that, Ulysses, in front of everyone, said he was very worried that Quinn wouldn't be happy and 'forced' Alexander to marry her.
