Love Unspoken

Quinn sat in the car, a shiver running down her spine. It could have been the lack of air conditioning that made her uncomfortable. Sensing her discomfort, Nicholas quickly closed the windows and turned on the air conditioner. "Sorry," he said, "I'm not fond of the smell of AC. I forgot to turn it on."

Quinn shook her head, signaling that it was fine.They arrived at the tech hub, where Nicholas led the way to a surveillance equipment shop. They were greeted by a familiar face. Quinn looked at Nicholas with a newfound appreciation. The lawyer had an impressively wide network. Earlier, he had managed to investigate Ariel's residence in mere minutes, and now they were being served by an old acquaintance for their security purchase.

However, Alexander grasped her hand and pulled her aside, handing her over to Kyle. "Take her back first," he ordered.

surrounding bodyguards with his eyes, urging them to pull Quinn into the car. Outmatched by their strength, she was dragged aboard, her eyes fixed on Nicholas, her heart plummeting. Once the car had left, Nicholas looked away as if he had pieced things together. "Sir, it seems there's been a misunderstanding. My involvement with Quinn is purely professional," he said. Alexander's lips curled slightly, but his smile didn't reach his eyes. He watched Nicholas deliberately. "In that case, there's no misunderstanding. Nicholas, may I have a word
