Love Unspoken

Quinn's eyelids twitched. She couldn't figure out where Maddox got all that confidence from. Honestly, she didn't think Sprout was that much of a troublemaker. Most of the time, he was pretty well-behaved. Maybe Maddox wasn't really looking to discipline Sprout; he just wanted an excuse to hang out with him.

With that thought, Quinn nodded. "Alright, Maddox, I'll leave both my kids with you. Make sure you take good care of them."

'Perfect,' Quinn thought. Now she could spend some quality time with Alexander working on their pentagon house without worrying about the kids.

Maddox patted his chest confidently. "No problem."

After a bit of chit-chat, he glanced at the sky. "Alright, enough talking. Let's get moving before it starts raining and we're stuck here."

Quinn looked at the gloomy sky over the sea, feeling uneasy, especially with two kids in tow. "Leave now? Maybe we should wait until the weather clears up?" Maddox insisted, "Let's go. This place is so desolate; what's the point of staying? Trust me, would I joke about your lives? I'll get you back safely!"

Since he was so sure, Quinn had no choice but to agree. "Alright, I trust you."
