Love Unspoken

Quinn gazed at his stern and fearful countenance, shivering with unease. Alexander approached her, attempting to help her remove her coat. Quinn instinctively recoiled, wrapping her arms around herself and longing to disappear into the wall.

Alexander hesitated, studying her with a gaze akin to a wary deer. After a moment of silence, he spoke softly, "Don't you remember me?"

Quinn subtly turned her head at his words, peeking cautiously at Alexander through her hair.

After a few seconds, she couldn't recognize the person. So she turned her head back, burying it in the corner of the wall.

Alexander's forehead twitched, his fingers tightening slowly, his knuckles turning slightly white. However, his tone remained calm. "Change your clothes, or you might catch a cold." Quinn ignored him, lost in her thoughts, turning her back to Alexander.

Alexander raised his hand, landing on her shoulder, forcibly turning her around. Quinn suddenly squatted on the ground again.

He also squatted down, prying open her hand to pull the zipper of her coat.

Quinn tried to push him away with her hand, but it was ineffective. She clenched her fist and struck his shoulder and chest. Uncertain of where she had hit Alexander, he stiffened slightly. Taking advantage of the moment, Quinn pushed him away with all her strength, causing Alexander to unexpectedly fall to the ground.

Quinn was somewhat surprised as she gazed into Alexander's intense expression, her eyes shifting down to his rolled-up sleeve.

There was a bright red bite mark on his wrist. Although washed by the rain, there was still some fresh blood oozing from the wound.

Quinn pursed her lips, feeling a bit guilty. She grabbed her collar, shrinking into the corner.

Alexander propped his hand on the ground, looking at her with a complex expression for a long time.

After a while, he slowly stood up, propped himself up, and left the bathroom.

Quinn's eyes tracked Alexander as he opened the bathroom door and exited. Her tense expression softened slightly.

But not long after, Olivia came in.

Olivia greeted Quinn with a warm smile as she approached her. Crouching down in front of her, she gently spoke, "Mrs. Kennedy, please change your clothes quickly to avoid getting sick.

"It's very uncomfortable to catch a cold. You'll have a headache, fever, and a sore throat. Are you afraid?" Olivia's tone was like coaxing a child, but it worked.

Upon hearing her words, Quinn indeed showed a hint of fear in her eyes.

Olivia whispered, "Come, let me help you change your clothes, okay? Don't worry, I won't harm you."

With her kind and gentle appearance, Olivia's face radiated kindness, putting people at ease.

With her words and demeanor, Quinn gradually let go of her defenses and nodded slightly.

Olivia let out a sigh of relief, smiling even more warmly. She assisted Quinn to stand up, undressed her, and then took the showerhead to help her rinse off. Quinn did not resist during the process, allowing Olivia to bathe her.

Outside the door, Alexander heard the sound of water and then headed upstairs.

Soren began to inspect his wounds. After a careful examination, he couldn't contain his astonishment.

Soren advised, "Mr. Kennedy, it has only been a few days since your surgery. Please try not to overexert yourself and rest in bed to facilitate a speedy recovery." Alexander sat on a chair in the bedroom, staring at the night rain outside without saying a word.

As Alexander remained silent, Soren continued to chatter. "You got caught in the rain, and the wound has turned white. If it gets infected, it will be troublesome."

Both the front and back wounds were blistered by the water, with the wound on the back being particularly affected. Despite being stitched, the wound inexplicably split open, causing blood to continuously seep out, creating a frightening sight.
