Love Unspoken

After a while, Walter raised his hand, gesturing for the person behind him to lower the gun, and smiled. "Mr. Kennedy, good to see you well?"

With a penetrating gaze, Landon scrutinized him, asking, "Why?"

The question had been well posed, though only Walter had understood its depth.

Why had he betrayed him? Why had he assisted Alexander?

Walter hesitated for a moment, his smile undiminished as he replied slowly, "There's no why. People live their whole lives for just a few things. I didn't want to, but what he offered was just too much." Landon also smiled, but it was a cold smile. "That's not what you said when you came to me."

Walter said, "People change."

Landon asked, "So this time, are you here to find someone?"

"Isn't it obvious, Mr. Kennedy? You, too, are to blame. Didn't you know that the little mute girl is easily frightened, yet you still brought her to such a place? You must have scared her, right?" Landon's mouth curled in a mocking arc. "What's your relationship with that mute girl?"

"What's my relationship with her? don't you know?" Walter smiled harmlessly. "She is my respected sister-in-law."
