Love Unspoken

Chapter 1503

Abigail spun around to face Landon, her eyes wide with shock.

They'd known each other for ages, but he'd never been this blunt before.

She just stood there, her mind going totally blank.

After a bit, her thoughts started to come back. She watched Landon walk into the room, look around, and then stand by the window.

"What are you talking about?" Abigail finally asked.

Landon turned, his face hidden in the shadow from the window light. He looked at her and said, "Aren't you mad that I went after those companies and dragged your family into it? And you can't stop me." Abigail was at a loss for words.

She forced a smile and awkwardly said, "Is that what you mean?"

Landon replied, "What else could it be?"

Abigail sighed. "Yeah, it's because of that."

An awkward silence hung between them. After a while, Landon plopped down on the sofa and said, "It's funny. Oliver came to see me, and so did your fiancé Elliot. Are we that close?"

He glanced at Abigail as he said the last part.

Abigail stared back. It was getting dark, and with no lights on, she couldn't see his expression clearly by the window.

After a moment, she said, "Not really. You can just ignore them."

Landon shrugged, "Okay."

Then he asked, "So, are you planning to stay here and not go out?"

Abigail walked over, but there was only one chair, so she sat on the windowsill.
