Love Unspoken

Chapter 1561

Quinn usually came off as tough when she was with Sprout, but the second he started crying, her heart melted.

"Let's just go to bed," Alexander sighed, his brows furrowed, clearly lost in thought.

Quinn turned off the light and lay down next to him, but sleep wouldn't come. With Calvin's phone off, she tried to convince herself he was just out of signal range or on a plane. She tossed and turned until the middle of the night before finally dozing off.

First thing in the morning, Quinn called Calvin, but his phone was still off. Panic started to set in. She quickly thought of Sprout and rushed to check the next room. The kids were sleeping soundly, and she let out a sigh of relief.

Downstairs, Briar had breakfast ready. Quinn stopped her and asked, "How long did Sprout cry last night?"

"About half an hour before he fell asleep. Don't worry, Sprout's tougher than he looks. He'll get used to sleeping alone in a few days," Briar reassured her.

Quinn nodded. Honestly, a kid that young didn't need to sleep alone, but Alexander insisted, so they went along with it for now.

"Where's Alexander?" Quinn asked.

"He left early this morning," Briar replied.

"Out again?" Quinn was surprised.

"Yeah, he didn't say where he was going," Briar added.

"Got it," Quinn said, sitting down at the dining table. Last night, Alexander came back out of the blue, and now he was gone again. What was he up to?

Could it be that Calvin's issue wasn't sorted out? She tried calling Calvin again, but his phone was still off.

Meanwhile, Calvin was on a boat, not in a cabin but in the luggage storage compartment.

There was another guy with him. Both were squatting in the dark.
