Love Unspoken

Chapter 59

The news struck Quinn like a bolt of ice, a penetrating chill seeping into her veins, numbing her to her core. She found herself transfixed by the television, the echo of Alexander's ominous words reverberating in her mind. "She won't have the chance." Quinn had harbored fears about what Alexander might do to Abigail, but the reality was far more sinister than she could have imagined.

Mr. Vanderbilt chimed in. Abigail covered her face, her voice trembling as she said, "But it's still murder. I did it with my own hands." She had been naive, and Alexander had imparted a brutal lesson through his ruthless actions. He could have orchestrated her downfall in a thousand different ways if he
