Love Unspoken

Chapter 1420

Abigail wrapped up her chat with the receptionist and strolled back to her seat. Landon was already busy grilling a bunch of meat, piling it up on a plate next to him. But he wasn't eating any of it; he just kept grilling like it was some kind of game.

Abigail watched him for a bit and then leaned in, whispering, "How'd you sneak that gun in?"

Landon paused, gave her a quick look, and then went back to grilling.

Abigail sighed, "Can I see it?"

Landon ignored her.

"Just a peek, okay?" she asked again.

Still no response from Landon, who seemed totally absorbed in his grilling. Abigail gave up, grabbed her chopsticks, and started munching on the meat he'd cooked. After a few bites, Landon suddenly pulled the gun out of his pocket and plopped it on the table.

Abigail almost choked on her food. She patted her chest, coughed, and gulped down some water, finally catching her breath.

Landon just casually put the gun out there. How bold was that?

"Want a closer look?" Landon asked.

"No, no, I'm good. Let's just eat," Abigail replied quickly.

She thought Landon must be nuts. Better not to mess with him.

Abigail kept her head down, eating in silence, afraid that if she ticked Landon off, he might actually use the gun.

While she ate, Landon kept grilling. When the grill pan was full, he moved the meat to a plate.

About ten minutes later, a few uniformed officers walked in and made a beeline for their table.

Abigail's heart jumped into her throat.

As soon as the officers got to their table, they drew their guns and aimed at Landon.

"We got a report you're carrying a gun and planning to rob this place. Cooperate with us!" one officer barked.
