Love Unspoken

Chapter 1562 The bald guy behind her caught up, yanked her hair, and kicked her in the waist.

Abigail, totally caught off guard, stumbled forward towards the two people in front of her. Normally, she would've fallen into the guy's arms, and he would've caught her.

But just as she was about to touch him, he sidestepped, letting her fall to the ground. "Get him, Cruz!" Calvin shouted.

Cruz rushed over and kicked the bald guy away.

The guy hit the ground, clutching his bleeding forehead and howling.

Cruz effortlessly picked him up and dragged him over to Calvin.

Calvin bent down, staring at the guy. "Do you know who I am?" The guy looked up, trying figure out who Calvin was. But after a long look, he had no clue.

He shook his head blankly. "No, I don't." "Good," Calvin replied, punching the guy in the nose. The guy's eyes rolled back, and he passed out cold.

Calvin searched him for a bit but found nothing. He took the guy's phone and ID, then turned and walked out with Cruz.

Abigail got up from the ground and quickly caught up. "Hey!" Calvin paused and looked back at her. "What?" Abigail looked at him with delight. "Do we know each other?" Calvin sized up Abigail, who did the sto him.

The streetlight lit up their faces, and both felt the other looked familiar but couldn't place it.

Calvin seemed to remember something and walked over to Abigail. "Are you Quinn's friend?" Abigail nodded quickly. "Yes, you do know me." She had never seen what Calvin looked like; the only tshe saw him, he was wearing a mask. But he looked familiar, so she asked tentatively.

To her surprise, they really knew each other. She asked again, "So, what's your relationship with Quinn?" "I'm her brother," Calvin replied.

Abigail slapped her forehead. "I knew it! You look so much like Quinn!" Calvin frowned. The only resemblance he had to Quinn was their eyes, and he didn't like hearing that. "What are you doing here?" Calvin asked.

Abigail smiled. "I'm here on business. Are you here for business too?" Calvin responded indifferently. He was actually just wandering around, but saying that felt embarrassing.

"That's great. I didn't expect to run into someone I know here," Abigail said with a smile.

"So, what happened just now?" Calvin asked.

Abigail glanced back at the guy in the alley and said irritably, "Bad luck, ran into a drunk." She had been following Landon, but after arriving here last month, Landon and his team disappeared after completing their mission. She wasn't sure if they had left or gone to a nearby town, so she waited here. She knew Landon might not return, but she had no idea where to search for him, so she stayed, hoping he would cback. If he didn't return in two weeks, she planned to leave.

Earlier, Abigail was heading back to her place when a drunk suddenly appeared. They had a brief scuffle, and then she ran into Calvin.

She didn't explain much, and Calvin didn't ask further. He changed the topic, "Do you live here?" "Yeah, I live upstairs. What about you guys?" Abigail asked.

Calvin looked a bit awkward. "We just got here and are looking for a place to crash." "Well, cstay at my place. I've got extra rooms," Abigail offered.

Calvin's eyes lit up. Even though he was already sold on the idea, he pretended to hesitate. "Are you sure that's okay?" "What's not okay? You're Quinn's brother, so you're basically my friend too. But if you're uncomfortable, that's cool," Abigail said.

Cruz jumped in quickly, "It's fine, boss. Since Abigail's inviting us, let's go to her place." Calvin nodded. "Alright then." Abigail beamed. "Great, let's go." She turned and led the way back into the alley. The guy on the ground was still out cold. Abigail stepped over him and walked deeper into the alley.

She lived on the third floor, and there was no elevator, so they had to take the stairs.

It wasn't a hotel or a motel, just a regular apartment with three bedrooms.

Abigail explained, "I didn't know how long I'd be here, so when I saw a place for rent, I took it. It's more convenient than a hotel." Calvin didn't react much. He looked around the apartment and then asked, "Where will we stay?" "These two rooms, take your pick," Abigail replied.

"Miss, do you have any food here? We haven't eaten all day," Cruz asked before Calvin could stop him.

Calvin shot him a glare, and Cruz awkwardly rubbed his nose.

Abigail was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded and ran to a box, pulling out a bunch of food.

There were instant noodles and snacks.

Cruz looked at the food, swallowed hard, and handed it to Calvin with a grin.

Calvin was also starving. He took the bag, looked through it, and chose a cup of instant noodles. Abigail went to boil water for them.

Cruz whispered, "Boss, I told you, you're lucky. You even ran into m someone you know in@place like N.C this Calvin ignored him and kept picking through the snack bag, taking out a piece of bread to eat. Abigail watched them from the kitchen, feeling a bit suspicious.

Did they cto do business with just the two of them? The way they were devouring the food made it seem like they hadn't eaten all day, more like two fugitives.

Although she didn't know Calvin well, she remembered that he had an intimidating presence the last tshe saw him.

Given Calvin's status, she thought he would refuse when she invited them upstairs. She didn't expect him to agree.

Something was off.

Abigail thought about calling Quinn but decided against it. She didn'm want toveveal her location and risk being caught by Oliver again. She had changed her phone and SIM card when she left, so no one could contact her, not even Landon.

It was because Landon didn't know she was following him that she lost track of him.

Abigail finished boiling the water and brought it out, sitting down nearby. "The water's ready. You can make! your noodles. I'm not much of a cook, so you'll have to make do." "No problem. We just need something to fill our stomachs," Cruz said with his mouth full.
