Love Unspoken

Upon reading the words, a grim expression overtook Alexander's face, the guilt that had previously etched his eyebrows and eyes vanishing. He suddenly laughed. "Quinn, when did you become so shameless? "I don't want you? Who gave you the courage to say that?"

Quinn was taken aback, her mind spinning. She had assumed Alexander's words implied that she was an unwelcome nuisance, even after their divorce. The thought was deeply humiliating. Her lips pursed into a tight line, her gaze dropping to the floor in sorrow. "I apologize," she gestured, "I'll leave soon."

Alexander's icy stare bore into her. "And how do you propose to leave in your current state? Are you planning to crawl your way out?" Quinn remained silent, her head bowed in resignation. Abruptly, Alexander rose to his feet, dialing a number on his phone. He summoned Soren.

Soren, upon receiving the call, was initially puzzled. However, the knowledge of Quinn's return filled him with apprehension.

Each summons usually signaled impending trouble.He hurriedly made his way to Regal Riverside, arriving just in time to witness Alexander unwrapping the bandages from Quinn's leg. Soren's eyes widened in shock at the sight of Quinn's injury.

"Alexander, what happened?" Soren asked, his voice filled with concern.

"A dog bit her. Can you examine her?" Alexander's brow furrowed as he studied her wounds. Both of her legs bore the marks of the attack, the surrounding skin swelling grotesquely. The entirety of her leg was slightly swollen due to the injury. The wounds left a bowl-shaped imprint, the center of which had turned an alarming shade of purple due to the swelling.

Soren hastily retrieved his medical kit, squatting before Quinn. He gently poked the swollen area with his fingers, asking, "Does it cause you pain?"

Quinn shook her head. She had taken painkillers before descending the mountain, so she felt no pain at the moment, only a sense of swelling.

Soren contemplated for a moment. "The painkillers might be masking the pain for now. But the wound appears to have been treated well. I'll disinfect it and apply some medication for you."

As he finished speaking, a thought occurred to him. "Can you still walk?"

Quinn nodded.

"That's a relief. The bones are intact. "Soren then proceeded to treat her wounds.

Quinn sat quietly on the sofa, a sense of familiarity washing over her as Soren applied the medication.Lost in her thoughts, she barely registered the sound of Alexander's phone ringing. He excused himself from the room to answer the call, leaving Quinn alone with her thoughts.

She glanced up at his retreating figure before lowering her gaze. Since their divorce, she had no right to question his conversations.This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Even before their separation, she wouldn't have dared to pry.

He was on the phone for an extended period, and by the time he returned, Soren had finished applying the medication to her wounds.

Alexander's tall silhouette lingered at the doorway, and Quinn noticed that he had already lit two cigarettes.

"Okay, Quinn," Soren said, having finished bandaging her wound.

He glanced back at Alexander before turning to Quinn, his voice barely above a whisper. "Do you remember me?"

Quinn shook her head, a vague sense of familiarity and fragmented images of Soren swirling in her mind."You've forgotten me again," Soren sighed. "Do you know what illness you have?" Quinn nodded, as she had read her notebook the previous day.

Soren breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. Remember to take your medication. Your condition is deteriorating, and you can't afford to miss a single day of medication, understand?" Quinn nodded again. She looked around, realizing that she had left her medication in the office. Soren noticed her distracted gaze and promptly produced two bottles of medication from his bag. "Luckily, I brought some with me. Take two pills for now."He poured the pills into Quinn's palm.

"You must take this illness seriously. Don't neglect your health."

As he finished speaking, Alexander's voice echoed from behind them. "What illness?"
