Darion strode right up to Thalia, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her out of the living room.

Wendy instinctively wanted to step forward, but remembering what Darion had just said, she forced herself to hold back.
She knew she was in the wrong, so she just kept quiet.
Once they were outside the villa, Darion said in a low voice, “Just now, Quinn almost ran into Wendy.”
Thalia tried to pull her hand away, but when she heard his words, she froze. “What do you mean?”
Darion’s eyes were tinged with helplessness. “He still hasn’t found her, and Quinn’s about to lose it. He wanted to see me, so I had Ryan bring him over. Ryan just told me that when he got to the door, Wendy was right there. If he hadn’t reacted fast, they would’ve run into each other.”
His tone softened a little. “Now, do you still think I was being harsh to her?”
Thalia was stunned, completely caught off guard. She never expected something like that to happen just
now.
She looked down slightly, hesitated for a moment, then said, “You’ve been in a rough mood lately, so I thought you were just taking it out on her.”
Darion sighed quietly. “There’s no cure for the poison in Keith’s system”
Thalia’s eyes shot open. “What?!”
She looked up at him, stunned. “Then…”
She couldn’t bring herself to finish. After all, they both knew what that meant.
No cure meant Keith was doomed. He wasn’t even four yet. His life had barely started…
Darion released her wrist and spoke in a low, heavy voice, “They’re still working on a cure, but nobody knows when it’ll be ready. And whether Keith can survive until then… that’s up in the air.”
He paused, giving her a troubled look. “I’ve been really stressed these days. If my mood has affected you. I’m really sorry.”
“No!”
Thalia shook her head instinctively. “I’m fine, really. Diana just wanted me to check on you today, to see what’s going on.”
“It didn’t affect you?”
Darion turned his eyes away, a subtle sadness passing through them.
Seeing that look on Darion’s face, Thalia’s heart was suddenly in turmoil. Her emotions were all over the place, and she couldn’t get a grip on herself. Not wanting to dwell on it, she cut straight to another question. “So, where’s Quinn now?”

“I had Ryan take him somewhere else,” Darion replied quietly.
Thalia let out a breath of relief, then asked, “Are you meeting him now?”
“Alright,” Thalia said.
He nodded again and said, “Let her stay here tonight. I’ll arrange for someone to take her back in the morning. Tell her not to wander around until the wedding’s over.”
“Okay,” Thalia agreed.
Thalia nodded, then turned and started walking back toward the villa.
After a few steps, she paused, unable to hold back, and called out, “Try to spend more time with Keith these days.”
As soon as she finished, she quickly slipped inside.
Darion watched Thalia’s slender silhouette as she slipped inside, his eyes growing gentler for a moment before he turned to leave.
