Love Unspoken

Kyle asked again, "Who was responsible for cremating Mrs. Kennedy's body?" Everyone's eyes darted to the dude on the far left. It was clear he was the one.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

The guy started shaking like a leaf and said, almost crying, "I swear, I don't know anything! I got the body and started preparing, but before I could do squat, I got knocked out. When I woke up, my clothes were gone. I thought it was some demon's doing!"

He felt super bummed, knowing zilch but still getting blamed.

Kyle shot a look at Alexander, who didn't even flinch, so Kyle told everyone to scram.

Once they were gone, Kyle said, "Looks like Landon had someone sneak in and act like staff, just waiting for you to show up so they could cremate Mrs. Kennedy right in front of you."

Kyle was fuming as he spoke. He thought bitterly, 'Landon's a real piece of work, messing with Alexander's head like that! Making him watch Quinn get cremated-man, that must've hurt worse than death.' Surprisingly, Alexander didn't lose his cool. He just sat there, staring blankly at the urn on the table.

He couldn't wrap his head around the fact that Quinn's ashes were inside, or maybe he just couldn't accept it. He just kept staring, not touching it.

He stared at it for what felt like forever.

Kyle sighed and stood quietly next to him.

"Any word on Landon and Soren?" Alexander suddenly asked.

Kyle quickly replied, "Not yet. The chopper you set up for Aurora got swapped by Landon. They didn't make it to their destination and switched rides after leaving Amber Bay, so tracking them's a pain." Alexander lit a cigarette, eyes still glued to the urn as he took a drag.

Olivia walked over and cautiously asked, "Mr. Kennedy, I got the medicine ready. Should I bring it to you?"

Alexander glanced at her.

Olivia shrank back, getting the hint, and was about to leave.

Suddenly, Alexander said, "Bring it over."

Olivia was momentarily stunned, then thrilled, and quickly ran to fetch the medicine.

She handed the bowl to Alexander, who downed it in one go, like it was water.

After finishing, he looked at the empty bowl and said thoughtfully, "That's really bitter."

He said it was bitter, but his face didn't show any discomfort.

Alexander then thought of something and asked Olivia, "Got any ice cream?"

"Yeah, I'll get it!" Olivia replied immediately.

She turned to get the ice cream, bringing back a bunch of flavors and setting them on the table. Alexander picked a mango one, slowly unwrapped it, and took a bite.

Kyle and Olivia exchanged a look.

Alexander said nothing, just sat there eating ice cream. After finishing one, he grabbed another.

Before long, he had polished off all five ice creams Olivia had brought.

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! Kyle reminded, "Mr. Kennedy, your body's still recovering. You shouldn't eat anymore."

Alexander paused, looking at the ice cream in his hand, and murmured, "Kyle, even the ice cream tastes bitter."

Kyle's expression was complicated, and he didn't dare say anything.

The bitterness wasn't in the ice cream, but in his heart. To him, everything tasted bitter.

Alexander closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa, saying, "Everyone out."

Kyle nodded and gave Olivia a look, signaling her to follow him out.

Outside, Kyle instructed her, "Keep an eye on Mr. Kennedy. If anything weird happens, call me, got it?"

Olivia nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry, Mr. Astor. I got it."

Kyle gave Olivia a few more instructions before leaving.

Olivia thought to herself, 'First I had to watch over Quinn, now it's Alexander. This job ain't easy.'

When she got back to the villa, she suddenly noticed Alexander was gone. Panicking, she heard a loud noise coming from the utility room, scaring the crap out of her.
