Love Unspoken

Chapter 1507

Landon kept his mouth shut, taking the doctor's lecture like a champ before finally muttering, "Got it."

The doc gave him a few more pointers and then took off.

"It was just a quick fix," Landon explained.

Abigail squinted, "What did you say?"

"Nothing." Landon hesitated, then asked, "Do we need to tell Oliver or anyone else?"

Abigail waved it off. "Nah. If Alvin finds out, he'll lock me up again. And I don't want Oliver stressing out; he's just as bad as Alvin." Landon gave a slight nod and didn't push it. He stood up, "You should get some rest. I'm heading out for a bit."

Abigail shrugged, "Do what you gotta do."

Once he left the room, Landon had plans to track down the guy who slipped away. But first, he headed home.

Aurora was still cleaning up the place. She spun around, startled, when she heard footsteps. Seeing it was Landon, she relaxed.

"Why are you back? How's Abigail? Is she okay?" she asked.

Landon walked in, scanning the room. The body was gone, and the bloodstains were cleaned up, but the metallic smell still hung in the air.

"Why was Abigail here?" Landon asked.

Aurora put down the cloth, looking a bit guilty. "We bumped into each other on the way. It's my fault. If I'd known this would happen, I wouldn't have called her over and dragged her into this mess." Aurora knew these people were after Landon. They were causing trouble because of him.

But she kept that to herself. She didn't want to show any sign of being caught up in Landon's problems. She didn't want to leave him, even if it meant danger.

Landon stayed quiet.

Aurora asked, "Do you know Abigail well?"

"Not really," Landon replied.
