Love Unspoken

Kaitlyn and Alexander locked gazes, their silent stare-down akin to a fierce competition. As Kaitlyn's thoughts raced, her anger swelled, her nails digging into the soft flesh of her palms.

She was resolute. She would not stand by and let him betray her or harm her people for another woman's sake.

After what felt like an eternity, Alexander finally broke the silence. "Of course not."

Kaitlyn's brows furrowed in confusion. "You didn't send the Evelyn Reed away?"

"Of course not."

"I want to believe you, Alexander. But if she's not found, I'll hold you responsible," Kaitlyn warned.

A soft chuckle escaped Alexander's lips, devoid of any discernible emotion. He rose from his seat, towering over Kaitlyn. "Why not just outright accuse me of taking her?"

"The Evelyn Reed has been with me for years. She's one of the few I trust implicitly. I won't let anything happen to her," Kaitlyn declared, her gaze unwavering.
