She heard Alexander's voice, calling her name. She turned around and saw him walking towards her, smiling, he looked like he had no idea what was going on, or what was about to happen.

He reached her and took her hand. He asked her if she was ready to leave. She nodded and said yes. She followed him to the car, leaving behind Madeline Dante, and everything else.
