Love Unspoken

Chapter 1493 So, it was just Calvin's private account. No biggie how much Alexander transferred, as long as he didn't go overboard with it.

If the Lynch family could track Calvin's accounts, they'd figure it out even if Alexander was sneaky about it.

But tracing Calvin's private account shouldn't be a walk in the park. So, for now, as long as they play it cool, the Lynch family won't be snooping around Calvin's account. Without knowing the exact amount, even if they found an empty account later, they wouldn't guess Calvin was planning to bail. Seeing Alexander was swamped, Quinn decided not to bug him and left.

She had wanted to ask if Alexander had been up to this when he was hiding out in the study a couple of months ago. Now it seemed pretty likely.

Calvin got called back, and the Lynch family wanted to strip him of his power, which got Quinn worried about him.

Calvin had been in Municity for years, and the power he built up shouldn't be that easy to take away.

Quinn thought about this as she headed back to the bedroom to nap with the kids.

Since Alexander cback, he spent most of his tin the study, only occasionally hanging out with them.

He used to take the kids for a walk every day, but now he was so busy he didn't even do that.

However, he seemed to be in a better mental state.

Quinn turned on the TV and while flipping through channels, she stumbled upon a news story about a company's chairman jumping off a building.

She didn't pay much attention to it, as there were plenty of people who committed suicide due to bankruptcy. Back then, Abigail didn't tell Quinn about her chat with Landon, so Quinn had no clue this might be Landon's doing.

Abigail saw the news and started feeling uneasy.

She knew more than just this one suicide incident. There had been car accidents caused by mechanical failures and people getting arrested and jailed. In just one month, three business owners in Amber Bay had incidents, making it hard for her not to think of Landon.

Abigail turned off the TV and called Landon.

After a bit, the call connected.

Abigail asked Landon, "I just saw the news about a company's chairman jumping off a building. Was that you?" Landon replied, "I thought you were calling to inviteto the wedding, but it turns out you're here to accuse me." Abigail frowned. "Was it really you?" Landon shot back, "Who are you to ask me?" This question stumped Abigail. She felt she shouldn't have made this call. She really had no right to question Landon about this, and even if she did, Landon might not tell her. Even if she found out, what could she do? Could she stop Landon? Abigail said, "I don't care what you're doing. But if you involve the Vanderbilt family, I won't let you off." Abigail hadn't forgotten seeing Landon and Oliver together at the company last time. They were definitely plotting something, and the incidents in the news might involve Oliver. Landon's words dripped with sarcasm, "How do you plan to do that?" His words infuriated Abigail. What could she do to him? She couldn't overpower him or outsmart him. What could she do? In a fit of anger, she hung up the phone.

She then went to find Oliver, who also didn't give her a straight answer.

Oliver said, "Abigail, your wedding is in a few days. Focus on getting ready for it and don't overthink." Abigail looked at him with a mix of emotions. She couldn't get through to Landon, and Oliver wasn't any easier. Frustrated, she left the study and locked herself in her room, ignoring Elliot's messages.

Tflew by, and there were only two days left until Abigail's wedding.

Quinn was thinking about heading over a day early and went to find Alexander.

Alexander was holed up in the study all day. Quinn walked in and glanced at his computer.

Alexander didn't hide anything from her. If she wanted to look, he let her. But whether she could make sense of it was another story.

Quinn couldn't make heads or tails of it. The screen was filled with red and green numbers and lines, and all sorts of messy pages. Alexander's computer desktop was even messier than Quinn's hair. Quinn smirked and looked away. Alexander then asked, "Need something?" Quinn glanced at him. "Do I need a reason to csee you?" Alexander was taken aback, then chuckled. He pulled her onto his lap. "Sorry, my bad." Quinn felt a bit awkward. She tried to stand up, but Alexander held her waist. "Did you cjust to check on me?" "Let go offirst," Quinn said, pushing him away awkwardly. Despite being married for so many years, she suddenly felt unaccustomed to such closeness.

Alexander didn't let go.

Quinn freed herself from him and stood up. "Actually, I have something to ask you." "Go ahead," Alexander said.

Quinn said, "Abigail is getting married, and I wanted to ask if you're going." Alexander paused and looked at Quinn in surprise, clearly unaware of this.

He had been in the study for so long that he was out of touch with the outside world, not even knowing that Abigail was getting married.

After a moment of contemplation, he said, "She probably doesn't wantto go." "Are you going?" Quinn asked.

"If you wantto go, I'll go. It's up to you," Alexander replied.

Quinn thought for a moment. "Then you better not go. Stay hand watch the kids." "Okay," Alexander agreed.

Quinn felt uneasy. She glanced at his computer, doubting if he could really watch the kids at home.

Sensing her concern, Alexander quickly closed the pages on his desktop. "Don't worry. I won't cto the study when you're not here." "Really?" Quinn asked.

"Do I need to lie about this?" Alexander replied.

Quinn thought about it and agreed. She decided to go a day early. "Alright, then I'll leave Sprout and Brandy to you." Alexander once again pulled her onto his lap, holding her tightly. "When did we becso distant?"

Quinn stiffened and turned her head away from his breath. "We didn't. It's just that you stay in the study all day and ignore us, and now you say I'm distant." "My bad," Alexander said, leaning closer. "I've been neglecting you." Quinn cupped his chin and pushed his head away. "Stay away from me." Alexander chuckled and let go of her. "Alright, I'll stay away. I'm going out tonight." Quinn suddenly turned to stare at him, clearly unhappy.

Quinn said, "Then go. Don't cback." "Are you serious?" Alexander asked.

Quinn almost blurted out "yes," but held back in time. She suspected that if she said it. Alexander might really not cback. After a long pause, Quinn said irritably, "No." Alexander laughed. "Are you mad?"

"No," Quinn said. She didn't know what to say to him. When Alexander was depressed all day, she was worried about him. Now that he was back to normal, Quinn found him annoying.
