Love Unspoken

Chapter 1537

Abigail noticed it too. She awkwardly got up and said, "Quinn, I gotta go. I'll catch you another time."

Then she bolted out of there.

Quinn gave Alexander an awkward smile. "When did you come down?"

Alexander replied, "Right around when you told Abigail to figure it out herself."

Quinn tried to explain, "I just meant she should get more exercise to recover faster."

Alexander raised an eyebrow, "Is that so?"

Quinn looked away, feeling guilty. "Yeah. Brandy and Sprout have been playing with Buddy all day. I'll take them out for a walk."

She picked up Sprout and turned to Brandy, "Brandy, wanna go for a walk?"

Brandy, hugging Liberty's neck, shook her head, clearly wanting to keep playing with the dog.

Quinn nodded and took Sprout out by herself.

She could feel Alexander's eyes on her as she walked away. She gritted her teeth and picked up the pace.

It was late afternoon, and the sun was setting. The weather was warmer, but there was still a chill in the evening air.

Quinn walked for a bit. Sprout was restless in her arms, always trying to get down, but he couldn't walk steadily. Quinn struggled to hold him as he squirmed. She finally put him down, holding his shoulders as he wobbled along.

He'd fall after a few steps.

Quinn sighed. Sprout was so full of energy; she knew he'd be a handful when he got older.

To avoid going back, she wandered around for a long time. It was dark by the time she thought about heading back.

Before she could decide, a long shadow appeared at her feet.

Quinn turned and her heart skipped a beat. Alexander had come looking for her.
