Love Unspoken

Quinn's head swiveled mechanically, her gaze landing on the Bentley parked in the yard. Alexander was stepping out of the vehicle, still clad in his signature black coat.

His strides were quick and purposeful as he made his way towards the house, an air of urgency about him.

As Alexander reached the door, his eyes met Quinn's in a coincidental collision of gazes. Time seemed to stand still in that moment, the only movement being the dust particles dancing in the air, suspended between them. Observing this, Sean quickly made his way over, a nervous edge to his voice as he called out, "Alexander."

Alexander's gaze shifted from Quinn to Sean, his eyes taking in every detail of Sean's actions.

"Speak," he commanded. Sean's mouth opened, then closed, struggling to find the right words. With a determined set to his jaw, he finally blurted out, "I'm sorry, Alexander, I lied."

Alexander remained silent, his cold gaze fixed on Sean, patiently waiting for him to continue.

Sean's eyes flickered to Quinn's leg. Despite her change into looser pants, the subtle swelling of her leg was still discernible.

He gritted his teeth and confessed, "Quinn got injured; it's not a minor injury."

A flicker of concern flashed through Alexander's eyes as he turned his attention to Quinn's leg.

"Roll it up," he ordered abruptly.

Quinn bit her lip, her head bowed as she silently complied, lifting her pant leg to reveal the gauze-wrapped injury.

Alexander's thin lips tightened, his complexion shifting subtly, but he remained silent.Sean closed his eyes, his expression one of a man awaiting his execution.

After a long silence, he cautiously called out, "Alexander, I..."

"Get out."

Sean stood frozen, the command taking a moment to register.

"I said, get out!" Alexander's voice suddenly rose, startling Sean into action.

"Okay!" Sean practically sprinted out, his pace quickening with each step.

Once Sean had departed, Alexander slowly approached Quinn, his gaze lowered as he studied her. His lips moved slightly, as if he was about to speak, but then he fell silent.

After a moment, he finally uttered three words, "Does it hurt?"This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

These simple words triggered a flood of tears from Quinn. She looked at Alexander, her tear-filled eyes filled with accusation and hurt.

Alexander reached out, his hand gently caressing her face. He paused momentarily, then continued to wipe away her tears with his fingers.

The more he wiped, the harder Quinn cried.Suddenly, Alexander scooped her up in his arms and carried her to the sofa. He gently placed her down, lifting her injured leg onto his lap to examine the wound. Despite the bandages, the severity of the swelling was evident.

Alexander looked up at Quinn.

"Quinn..."Tears streamed down her face as she looked back at him. Memories of his cold demeanor from the previous day flooded her mind, causing her heart to ache. She raised her finger and gestured. "What did I do wrong?"

Alexander suddenly fell silent.

"If I did something wrong, I apologize. Can you please not lock me up in there anymore?" she gestured.

Alexander remained silent, his gaze fixed on Quinn.Seeing that he didn't respond, Quinn reached out and grabbed his arm, shaking it.

Alexander was silent for a moment longer before finally taking her hand, stopping her movements. "It's my fault, I'm sorry. It won't happen again."

Tears continued to roll down her face.

She withdrew her hand and gestured again. "But you don't want me anymore."
