Chapter 1548 After the call connected, Quinn asked, "Kyle, Getty got life, right?" Kyle replied, "Yeah, why are you bringing her up now?" Quinn's eyes flickered. "I just saw her." Kyle exclaimed, "No way, Getty's out already? Are you sure it was her?" Quinn confirmed, "I'm sure." Kyle said, "That's weird. Who would help..." He trailed off, then coughed. "Mrs. Kennedy, maybe you should double-check? Maybe you were mistaken." Getty had made a ton of enemies, especially after taking over the Kennedy Group and acting all high and mighty.
Before, as CEO of the Kennedy Group, she had srespect. But now, without that title, she was worthless. Who would go to such lengths to get her out? Quinn didn't want to suspect Alexander, but seeing Getty earlier was like a thorn in her side. She wouldn't rest until she found out who got Getty out. Kyle said hesitantly, "Could it be someone from the Dixon family?" He didn't sound confident.
The Dixon family had swapped kids with Kaitlyn back then, but that was only about Ruby. Getty had nothing to do with them.
If Ruby were kind-hearted, she wouldn't have ignored Kaitlyn back then.
Quinn didn't speak for a long time, making Kyle anxious on the other end. He didn't dare say more. "Mrs. Kennedy, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up." Quinn replied, "That's all. You can hang up." She sat in the car, her mind racing.
She suddenly opened the car door and got out. "Briar, stay in the car with them and wait for me." Briar responded, "Yes, Mrs. Kennedy." Quinn went back to the beauty salon. The receptionist saw her cback and greeted her warmly. "Ms. Mellon, why are you back?" Quinn asked, "How long has that cleaner been here?" The receptionist replied, "Not long, about three or four months?" It was just when she and Alexander returned to Amber Bay. Quinn felt like something had hit her hard, making her dizzy.

Although the receptionist didn't know why Quinn wanted to see a cleaner, she nodded. "Of course, I'll call her now. Please wait in the lounge for a moment." Quinn waited in the lounge for about ten minutes before someone cin.
She turned to look. It was the cleaner.
The cleaner didn't speak, silently walking to stand opposite Quinn without sitting down, as if waiting for her instructions.
If it were the old Getty, she would never have acted like this. But after Freya's lesson, Quinn believed that even the proudest person would change after going to prison. Quinn said, "Take off your mask." The cleaner didn't move.
Quinn kept her composure and said again, "Take off your mask. Don't makesay it a third time." The cleaner lowered her head, silent for a moment, then slowly raised her hand and took off her mask.
Quinn could now see her face clearly, shattering her last hope that she had mistaken her.
It was Getty! That stiff, surgically altered face was unmistakable.
Quinn stared at Getty for a long time, her mind in chaos.
She awkwardly asked, "Who got you out?" Getty looked up at her, her eyes filled with complex emotions.
She didn't answer Quinn's question but instead asked, "Why are you so shocked?" Quinn replied, "I thought you'd spend the rest of your life in prison. Seeing you out so soon, of course, I'm surprised. I even want to send Getty stiffened slightly. "Do you have to be so ruthless?" Quinn insisted, "Who got you out?" Getty said, "I've been in Amber Bay for years. Is it strange to have sconnections?" Quinn shook her head. "They shouldn't be able to get a life-sentenced person out in a year." you back." Getty turned her head away, not answering her question.
Quinn's heart sank. If it had been the old Getty, and Alexander hadn't been the one to free her, she would have boasted and taunted Quinn, saying Alexander had saved her. But she didn't, which means someone had warned her, making her too afraid to reveal who had actually saved her.
Who would go to the trouble of not only getting her out but also specifically instructing her not to slander Alexander and to keep her savior's identity a secret? Quinn asked, "If you have such connections, why are you working as a cleaner here? Did they get you out just to sweep floors?" Getty remained silent.
Quinn asked, "Getty, if I send you back, will that person get you out again?" Getty was stunned and looked at her.
They silently stared at each other, as if engaging in an invisible battle.

Getty sighed and said, "Quinn, please letgo. I just want to live now. I won't cafter you e Alexander. I won't disturb you. Just pretend I'm still in prison or dead, okay?" Quinn tugged at the corner of her mouth. "You makesound like a villain."
Getty said, "Sometimes, ignorance is bliss. Knowing too much only brings trouble. Does it matter who saved me? Your life goes on as usual. If you feel happy, isn't that enough? Why seek trouble?" Quinn laughed self-deprecatingly. "I can let it go. But tell me, what did the person who saved you say?" Getty replied, "He owedand paid it back. We're even now. Does that reassure you?" Quinn didn't speak, sitting there silently, as if there was nothing more to say. Getty turned and left.
At the door, Quinn's voice cagain, "Did you find him, or did he find you?" Getty paused and looked back at Quinn.
She lifted the corner of her mouth, but it didn't look like a smile. She couldn't make that expression, just lifting the corner of her mouth.
She said, "Take a guess." With that, she walked out without looking back.
Quinn didn't know how she got back to the car. Briar saw her dazed look and asked worriedly, "Mrs. Kennedy, are you okay?" Sprout next to her also called out, as if comforting her.
Quinn turned her head and looked at Sprout's innocent face. He grinned with his incomplete teeth; drooling from the corner of his mouth as he smiled.
