Love Unspoken

Walter didn't give her a chance to talk; he just drove off. In no time, they were in the suburbs.

Seeing the road sign, Quinn felt a wave of despair. Her bad feeling grew stronger.

She twisted her fingers nervously, looking at the scenery. It all felt unreal.

She hadn't brought anything with her and now Walter had taken her to the suburbs. She thought, 'He wants to take me away from Amber Bay. This is crazy.' Her phone suddenly buzzed. Quinn stiffened and saw it was Kyle calling.

She sighed in relief but didn't have the courage to answer.

When the call ended, it rang again.

"Aren't you going to answer?" Walter asked.

Quinn glanced at him. "You've already driven us out here. What am I supposed to say?"

She pleaded, "Let's go back, okay?"

"We're already this far. Going back is pointless," Walter replied, leaving Quinn speechless.

The phone rang again.

Quinn looked at the screen, the constant buzzing making her more nervous.

Walter sighed, "You should answer it. It's giving me a headache."

Quinn gripped her phone, staring at the answer icon. After hesitating for a while, she still couldn't answer.

She remembered when Orion failed to take her away last time. What about this time?

When the fifth call came, Quinn finally realized Kyle wouldn't stop calling.

She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down.

She finally answered.

"Quinn, tell him to stop the car. I can pretend nothing happened." It was Alexander's voice.

Quinn opened her mouth but couldn't say a word, then turned to look at Walter.

He kept driving, one hand on the wheel.

Quinn glanced at the rearview mirror and saw several black Mercedes catching up. It had to be Alexander. "Did you hear me?" Alexander's voice came again, "Don't push me."Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Quinn, feeling nervous, had beads of cold sweat forming on her forehead and her back was drenched in sweat.

Walter, knowing they were being chased, stayed calm. As the road got more remote, Quinn realized something. Maybe he didn't want to take her away but wanted to confront Alexander.

Quinn hung up and grabbed Walter's arm. "What are you trying to do? Did you lead him here on purpose?" Walter glanced at her, smiling gently. "Are you worried about him?"

Quinn stiffened.

His voice was gentle, but his words were chilling. "Quinn, don't forget. He's our enemy. If he dies, won't we leave Amber Bay easily?"
