Love Unspoken

Chapter 1500

Neither of them said a word after that. Oliver was lost in thoughts about Abigail. He hadn't spilled the whole story to his parents yet, just that Abigail had been found. Landon hung around for a bit before taking off. The guy they caught still needed dealing with, so Landon went to handle it.

As dawn broke, Elliot showed up.

Abigail had been moved to a ward. Elliot was about to walk in when Oliver stopped him.

Elliot, looking worried, asked, "What happened to her?"

Oliver tried to calm him down, "She got bit by a snake, but she's okay now. Don't stress."

He could see the worry on Elliot's face. There was always something off about Elliot and Abigail's relationship. They seemed close, but there was no spark.

But now, seeing Elliot so concerned, with that deeper affection in his eyes, Oliver felt a bit more at ease.

He gave Elliot a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "She's fine. Don't worry too much. But your wedding's gonna have to wait."

Elliot's face showed a flicker of regret but it quickly vanished. "It's alright. We've got time. We'll wait till she's better."

Oliver nodded. "Yeah."

Even though Oliver didn't want to dive into the details of Abigail's kidnapping, he knew they had to explain her absence to the Sullivan family.

After thinking for a moment, he told Elliot, "Your family wasn't too thrilled about this marriage from the start. You might need to explain things to them." Elliot replied, "I know. I'll handle it."

Oliver gave a small smile.

They stood at the door for a bit. Once Elliot was sure Abigail was out of danger, he left the hospital to go calm his family down.
