Love Unspoken

Chapter 1498

Alexander gave Quinn's short hair a playful ruffle. "Hey, it looks pretty good."

Quinn eyed herself in the mirror, then glanced at Alexander. "Really? It feels so weird."

Alexander chuckled. "That's just 'cause you're not used to it yet. Give it some time, you'll get there."

Quinn nodded, trusting him. "Alright. I wonder how Abigail's doing and if Oliver's found her."

Alexander opened the car door, letting Quinn hop in first. "Let's head back. They'll call if there's any news. Hanging around here won't help."

Quinn couldn't do much but worry.

Alexander drove her back to Regal Riverside. Sprout and Brandy were still up, and Briar was in the living room, trying to calm Sprout, who was refusing to sleep. Brandy was waiting for them to return.

When Brandy saw them, she was stunned and almost didn't recognize Quinn.

Brandy tilted her head, staring at Quinn for a long moment to make sure it was really her.

Quinn found it funny. She walked up to Brandy and ruffled her hair. "What's up? Don't recognize me?"

Hearing Quinn's familiar voice, Brandy smiled and hugged her leg.

Quinn was about to bend down to pick her up, but Alexander beat her to it, lifting Brandy. "You're hurt. Let me handle this. Go upstairs and rest."

Quinn wanted to argue, but Alexander was already carrying Brandy upstairs.

She asked Briar to help carry Sprout upstairs. She hadn't felt the pain earlier, but now the burns and scalds were starting to hurt.
