Default KQ vs 3 bettor on Q25 flop

Villian is 14% VPIP, 10.3 PF raise, AF 3.31. I had a note on him that he 4 bet a low flop with probable high cards, then took a free card on the turn and check folded the river.

I see aggressive players do this with ak often. I'm behind to AA KK QQ AQ, and there's a good chance he has one of those. If he has KK, QQ or AQ i'm in a lot of trouble. If he has AA i still have 5 outs. I doubt he'd 3 bet JJ here, so that leaves AK, or MAYBE AJh that i'm ahead of.

Should i be folding this? I feel like this is a big leak in my game. I really don't like calling down, but i really have no idea if i should be folding this or not. For instance, i just played a hand a minute ago where i raised AK, bet and 3 bet a 10 high flop, and then bet a low turn, and the guy folded. If i am folding KQ in this situation, aren't i just giving aggressive opponents license to steal?
