Love Unspoken

Chapter 176

"I was just helping Alexander look for something," Ruby clarified, her voice laced with laughter. "It would have been polite to knock before entering, don't you think?" Quinn's lips tightened into a thin line as she cast another glance at Alexander.

His expression was slightly marred by a frown, yet he chose to remain silent.

Lowering her gaze, Quinn extended a dossier towards him, laying it flat on the desk before her. She paused momentarily, then exited the office with measured steps. Ruby's eyes followed Quinn's retreating figure until she was out of sight. She then turned her attention back to Alexander, who was studying her with an intense gaze. "Is there something on my face, Alexander?" Ruby asked, lightly touching her cheek.

Alexander's gaze lingered on her face just long enough to stir a sense of unease within Ruby.

Suddenly, he averted his eyes, his voice laced with ambiguity. "Keegan, focus more on your work."

Caught off guard, Ruby's smile wavered, but she quickly regained her composure. "Understood." With those words, she exited the office, the click of her high heels echoing behind her. Once outside, the warmth of her smile was replaced by a colder, inscrutable expression. Quinn sat in front of her computer, lost in thought until the screen faded to black.

"Hey, it's time to call it a day," someone tapped on her desk.

Jolted from her reverie, Quinn nodded in acknowledgment and began to pack up her things. Suddenly, her phone buzzed with a new message.

Upon checking it, she found a brief text from Nicholas.
