Love Unspoken

Chapter 1555

Quinn had no choice but to tell Briar to whip up some food for Sprout.

When it came to extra food, Sprout wasn't too fussy. He'd gobble up all kinds of veggie purees mixed together, and his favorite was pumpkin porridge.

Sprout clearly had a thing against eggs. No matter how they were cooked, he wouldn't touch them. He always knew when there was egg in his food, and the second he tasted it, he'd turn his head away and refuse to eat. Besides eggs, Quinn hadn't found any other food he really disliked.

He might not have loved other foods, but he'd at least take a bite or two. Eggs were the only no-go.

Briar knew Sprout's tastes well and soon brought over a bowl of mixed veggie and meat puree.

Quinn held Sprout in her arms and started feeding him.

Just after a couple of bites, her phone rang. She picked it up and saw it was a video call from Alexander.

She answered, and their faces popped up on the screen.

Alexander asked, "What are you up to?"

Quinn held the phone a bit farther away so he could see everything. "Feeding Sprout."

With Quinn's hands full, Sprout grabbed the spoon himself and stirred the bowl. Since he couldn't scoop yet, he just stirred a bit and then shoved the spoon into his mouth, smearing food all over his face. Alexander couldn't help but laugh when he saw Sprout.

Quinn said, "What's up? Missing Sprout? You called just to see him?"

Alexander replied, "Can't I be missing you?"

Quinn pouted, "Who knows if you really mean that." Alexander's expressed longing was always over the top.

Alexander joked, "Sprout always pees on me when I take care of him. Why would I miss him?"

Quinn teased, "That means you two don't get along."

Alexander nodded in agreement. "Yeah, he gets along with you. He's not so well-behaved with me."

At first, he thought Sprout behaved around Quinn because she would discipline him, so he didn't dare act out.

But later, Alexander realized that wasn't the case. Sprout only behaved when Alexander was stern or angry, sensing the need to be obedient.

As soon as Alexander tried to be kind to Sprout, Sprout would immediately revert to his mischievous self, pushing boundaries.

Quinn couldn't explain it either.

Quinn asked, "So when are you coming back?"

Alexander replied, "Soon."

Quinn said irritably, "You've said that a hundred times."

Alexander laughed, "Not that many. This time it's really soon, at most a month."

Quinn shot back, "You call more than a month 'soon'?"
