Love Unspoken

Chapter 1494 The next day, Quinn went to find Abigail. Even though they'd known each other forever, this was her first tvisiting the Vanderbilt family.

Abigail was waiting at the door. As soon as Quinn stepped out of the car, Abigail rushed over and linked arms with her.

"Why are you so late? I've been waiting forever," Abigail said.

Quinn glanced at her watch. "Isn't it still early?" she replied.

Abigail smiled at Quinn. It was a content smile, not the over-the-moon joy of a bride-to-be. She wasn't marrying someone she loved, but she didn't dislike him either, and the arrangement saved her a lot of hassle. Naturally, she felt pleased. She told Quinn, "Once I get married, I can move out and do whatever I want." Quinn could only congratulate her.

The wedding was set for a hotel, and they had to be there early the next morning. So, they were staying here tonight.

Even though the Sullivan family wasn't thrilled about the marriage, a wedding was all about status and appearances, so it couldn't be too shabby. Plus, Alvin wanted to give Abigail a grand wedding, so it was definitely going to be a big deal. Quinn followed Abigail into the villa, which was almost empty. Alvin and Oliver had gone to the hotel, leaving Abigail alone at home. They didn't even bother with greetings.

After sitting down, Quinn asked, "Where's your bridesmaid?" "Bridesmaid?" Abigail slapped her forehead. "I completely forgot about that." She had been out and about for the past few years and hadn't kept in touch with people from Amber Bay. Besides, most people her age were already married. Where was she supposed to find a bridesmaid? "This is tricky. Maybe I should just ask the wedding company to find a few for me," Abigail suggested.

Quinn smirked. "Isn't that a bit hasty?" "So what? They may be strangers, but they're professionals," Abigail replied.

Then she took out her phone and started contacting the wedding company. Finding bridesmaids was easy if the price was right.

The wedding company gladly agreed to her request, promising that the bridesmaids would be there by the evening.

Abigail casually tossed her phone aside. "Done." Quinn chuckled awkwardly. "Alright then." Seeing Abigail so carefree, Quinn couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

The Sullivan family had initially been so opposed to the marriage but suddenly agreed. It couldn't just be because Alvin pestered them; the Vanderbilt family must have offered other benefits. Alvin had gone to great lengths for Abigail. If he knew that Abigail and Elliot were just making a deal, he would be heartbroken. On the way there, Quinn had a bad feeling. She hoped the wedding would go smoothly.

She casually picked up a wedding dress catalog from the table and flipped through it. The dresses were beautiful, but Quinn had never worn one.

Even Abigail's fake wedding was so grand, while she and Alexander didn't even have a banquet.

Abigail was doing her nails nearby. When she looked up and saw Quinn's disappointed expression, she snatched the catalog away.

"You and Alexander have been back for a while now. Has he mentioned having a proper wedding?" Abigail asked. "What's the point? We already have a child," Quinn said, pretending not to care.

Abigail disagreed. "Marriage is a major life event, a significant milestone. No matter what, you should have a ceremony to create sbeautiful memories." "Let's talk about it later. Isn't it your wedding now?" Quinn replied.

Abigail sighed, looking at her with a disappointed expression.

Quinn seemed to remember something. "I used to think you liked Landon." Abigail was taken aback and instinctively refuted, "That's a dangerous thought. Don't think that again." Quinn replied, "I know. I was just saying." If Abigail really liked Landon, Quinn wouldn't have dared to bring it up.

Abigail opened her mouth but then looked down at the catalog in her hands, flipping through it absentmindedly with a complicated expression.

"We're not the skind of people," Abigail said.

Quinn was a bit stunned and turned to look at her.

After a moment, Abigail looked up at Quinn, her expression more serious. "Don't laugh atfor this. I might have had sfeelings for him before, but when I thought about the things he did, I immediately squashed those feelings." Abigail had never mentioned this to anyone, not even Quinn.

After all, she had always said she was determined not to fall in love. Admitting this would go against her own words. Now that she was about to get married, she felt the need to say it. Keeping it bottled up would only make her feel worse. Quinn couldn't judge whether Abigail was right or wrong. Emotionally, love was selfish and could override everything. Rationally, Landon's behavior didn't match Abigail's values. They were fundamentally different individuals. Abigail was clearly rational. Maybe it was her personality that made her feel that love wasn't that important.

Quinn nodded. "I get it." Abigail sighed. "I'm glad you understand. It's all in the past anyway. Why bring him up?" "Alright, let's drop it," Quinn agreed.

Abigail collapsed on the sofa, feeling exhausted. "Just thinking about tomorrow's wedding makesfeel tired." "Didn't you say that marriage is a major life event? It's normal to feel a bit tired," Quinn said.

"I said that for people who are in love. What is this betweenand Elliot?" Abigail retorted. Just as they were talking about him, Elliot called on video.

Abigail answered the call. "What's up?" she asked.

"Nothing, just checking on you and seeing how the preparations are going," Elliot replied.

Abigail replied irritably, "What do I need to prepare? They'll handle everything. I just need to show up tomorrow." "Alright then. You seem bored," Elliot said.

"Of course, aren't you bored?" Abigail shot back.

"I'm not bored. I'm too excited to sleep," Elliot said with a grin.

"Here we go again. Get lost," Abigail said, rolling her eyes.

Listening to their conversation, Quinn quietly got up and walked out. If she didn't know they were getting married by agreement, she would have thought they were in love. Bored, Quinn wandered around the Vanderbilt family's garden. Spring had arrived, and the garden was in full bloom, filling the air with a fragrant floral aroma.

She suddenly felt that the yard at Regal Riverside was too small and didn't have many flowers.

When the house in Sylvadora was finished, there would definitely be a big garden.

Inside, Abigail and Elliot chatted for over half an hour. After the call, Abigail cout to find Quinn.

They had nothing to do and stayed at hall day, bored.

By eight in the evening, the six bridesmaids found by the wedding company had arrived. They were all young college students, looking around in amazement at the luxurious villa. The butler led them to the living room and introduced them to the bride, Abigail. Abigail told the butler to arrange their accommodations and reminded them that they had to get up at five in the morning to go to the hotel.

Elliot was supposed to cand pick her up, but Abigail didn't want the hassle and specifically told him not to come. She would just go to the hotel and get married.

That night, Quinn stayed in the room m next to Abigail's. She took out her phone and made a video call to Alexander made Alexander, wanting to see if he was really taking care of the child as he had said.
