Love Unspoken

Quinn was cluelessly munching on fried chicken in her dream.

Her mom never let her eat junk food, so she was fighting with her mom in the dream. Determined to keep the chicken leg, she bit down hard on it. She used all her strength to protect that chicken leg, her teeth clamping down tighter and tighter.

Alexander's face darkened. He pinched her jaw with his other hand and yanked his fingers out of her mouth.

His fingers were covered in saliva, with a deep bite mark across them.

He quickly got up and walked out.

Downstairs, Kaitlyn was still arguing with Olivia. Alexander ignored them and headed to the study.

After a while, finally, Kaitlyn left in a huff.

Just as she was leaving, Kyle showed up looking for Alexander. She grabbed Kyle and asked, "Mr. Astor, what's Alexander been up to lately?"

Kyle was caught off guard and hid the documents behind him. "He's been busy with company stuff, of course."

Kaitlyn gave him a suspicious look.

Kyle didn't want to get tangled up with her, so he bowed slightly and said, "Mrs. Kennedy Senior, I need to go in."

With that, he quickly entered the villa and went straight to the study.

"Mr. Kennedy." Kyle handed a stack of documents to Alexander.

"We checked all the surveillance and Stanley's call records. The footage shows he drove to the suburbs and never came back."

"The last call on his phone," Kyle hesitated and glanced at Alexander, cautiously saying, "was with you."

Alexander took the documents and looked through the surveillance and investigation records.

Kyle continued, "Stanley's wife also said he went out after getting a call.

"There was nothing unusual that happened when he left; it was just like any other time he went out."

Alexander listened quietly, looking at the surveillance photos in his hand, a cold smile forming on his lips.

"He went to great lengths to frame me," Alexander mused.

Kyle knew exactly who "he" referred to-none other than Landon.

Thinking about the troublemaker, Kyle got a bit angry. "He just got out of the hospital and is already causing trouble. He must be really bored!"

Alexander said, "He's not bored; he's targeting me."

He threw the photos on the table. "If everything goes according to his plan, the police will soon find Stanley's body, and all the evidence will point to me."

Kyle was shocked. "What should we do?"

"We need to find his body first," Alexander replied simply.

"Okay, wait, how do you know Stanley is dead?" Kyle was confused.

Alexander pinched the bridge of his nose. "If he's not dead and is found, the truth will come out."

Kyle suddenly understood. It seemed Stanley was likely dead.

"I'll send someone to find him immediately," Kyle said.

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! "Look in obvious places. Landon wants the police to find the body, so he won't hide it too well," Alexander suggested.

"I understand."

Kyle glanced at the documents on the table, hesitated, and said, "I suspect Mr. Smith is also involved in this."

Alexander raised an eyebrow slightly. "I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned him."

"What do you mean?" Kyle asked, puzzled.

"Take Walter with you to find it. He should know where the body is."

Kyle frowned in confusion, wanting to ask why but fearing Alexander would think him stupid. So he didn't ask and went out to handle it.

After leaving, he called Walter.

Walter was still working overtime at the company, going through almost a year's worth of accounts.

After receiving Kyle's call, he dropped everything and left the company without hesitation.
