Love Unspoken

After wrapping up those tasks, Quinn headed over to the hospital to check on the kid.

But when she got there, the kid was gone from the incubator. She frowned and rushed to find the doc.

The doc said, "Mr. Kennedy said the medical conditions here suck, so he had the kid moved to a better hospital."

"Which hospital did they take the kid to?" Quinn asked, all nervous.

"I dunno, but I heard him on the phone saying he sent a helicopter, so it's gotta be somewhere far," the doc said, looking kinda jealous.

"I sent her to Amber Bay," Alexander's voice suddenly came from behind, making Quinn jump.

She spun around and asked suspiciously, "Did you put a tracker on me?"

It made sense for Quinn to be suspicious; his ward was far from the maternity ward, yet he showed up at the same time as she did.

Alexander looked at her helplessly and said, "I wouldn't dare. You just didn't see me."

"What do you mean?" Quinn asked.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"I was right at the hospital entrance. You would've seen me if you looked. But it seems your eyes were only on that kid," Alexander explained, giving her a resentful look. Quinn was speechless.

She really hadn't noticed him. She just wanted to take a quick look and leave. After all, she felt guilty about planning to bail and wasn't paying much attention.

"Stop acting so pitiful. Why should I focus on you?" Quinn snapped irritably.

Quinn ignored him and turned to leave the consultation room.

Alexander watched her go and then glanced back at the doc.

The doc had a curious, gossipy look, but when he met Alexander's gaze, he immediately coughed and looked down to type on the keyboard.

Alexander, with his hands in the pockets of his hospital gown, casually walked out and strolled in the park.

The doc had told him long ago that he could be discharged, but he insisted on staying. In just a few days, the enthusiastic elderly in the park had introduced him to at least twenty potential dates. After Quinn came out, she found a spot to sit and started looking at flight tickets. There happened to be a flight in three hours.

From here, it would take exactly two hours to get to the airport, just in time to catch the flight.

She bought the ticket with her new phone, then hailed a taxi by the roadside and headed straight to the airport with nothing but herself.

She wanted to leave unexpectedly.

While Alexander was still in the park listening to the elderly introduce potential dates, he got a call from Kyle.

Kyle reported, "Mr. Kennedy, you were right. Mrs. Kennedy bought a ticket to Sylvadora. I also got you a ticket for that flight. Did you get the info?"

Knowing that Abigail had helped Quinn get a new SIM card, Alexander had Kyle monitor the flight status. As soon as Quinn booked the ticket, Kyle got a call from the airline.

As Kyle finished talking, Alexander's phone beeped. He glanced at it and said, "Got it."

Kyle reminded, "Good. The flight leaves in three hours. You need to go now."

"I know."

Alexander calmly hung up the phone and left the hospital without even changing his clothes.

In the car, Quinn watched the scenery fly by, her anxiety growing. Leaving in such a hurry made everything feel kinda unreal.

She couldn't believe she was actually leaving.

The time was tight to get from the town to the airport. As soon as she got to the airport, she started running, quickly got her boarding pass, and rushed to security. After passing security, she had to run a bit more to the gate. Luckily, the airport wasn't big, or she might have missed the flight.

When she reached the gate, there was no one left.

Seeing the still-open gate, Quinn finally couldn't help but stop to catch her breath, almost out of oxygen.

As she was catching her breath, she suddenly heard her name over the loudspeaker.

"Attention passengers Quinn Mellon and Alexander Kennedy on flight 158 to Sylvadora, your flight is about to depart. Please proceed to gate 22 immediately."
