Chapter 1150 "At least you're self-aware," Lydia replied, her smile growing wider.
Quincy noticed this and couldn't help but admire her composure. Even in such a dire situation, Lydia could still find it in herself to smile. Her mental strength was something else.

Lydia cut him off with a soft laugh. "Honestly, if we're meant to die here, that's just fate. If it's destiny that we die together, what choice do we have?" She didn't seem like she was just trying to laugh in the face of adversity. There was a genuine acceptance in her tone.
Quincy felt a pang of guilt. "I brought you on this trip, and now look what's happened." Before, Quincy might have been wary of Lydia, but after all they had been through together, he knew what kind of person she was. If she were the type to abandon someone in trouble, she would have left him behind long ago. But she hadn't, and that spoke volumes about her character.
"If you feel guilty, how about dropping your suspicions ofonce we're out of here? I'm just trying to push myself. Besides, with a company as big as York Corporation, do you really think I could do anything shady and get away with it? Nash would never letoff the hook." Nash had been a major figure in Birkham for years, and now he was even more powerful. The idea that Lydia could pull something off without Nash noticing was absurd.
"Don't worry, we'll get out of here. Nash will clooking for us." Even though Nash's focus was mostly on Nina and Orion these days, Quincy knew Nash wouldn't just let them disappear without a trace.

tthe Quincy had guessed right. When Nash discovered that Quincy and Lydia were missing and realized it was related to the factory, he immediately took action against t factory. He forced the owners to reveal their last known location.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNow, Nash was personally leading a search in the mountains to find Quincy and Lydia. Quincy had been with him for years. He was more like family than just an employee, and Nash wasn't about to let anything happen to him.
Because Nash had deployed a large team, they eventually reached the Ny area where the man lived: The man, knowing Quincy was important, didn't resist when Nash's men arrived.
As Nash questioned the man, the man made his move. "I saved them, but if you want to take them, you'll E have to pay me." Nash, focused on finding Quincy and Lydia, didn't hesitate. "How much do you want?"
"Of course, it has to be fair," the man replied. "I didn't save a couple of people just to walk away with nothing, right?" Nash took a moment to observe the man's situation and glanced around his small, rundown house.
