Love Unspoken

Quinn kept calling out "Daddy" over and over, her eyes sparkling with a hint of happiness.

She clung to Alexander's waist, acting all spoiled, expecting him to comfort her like her father used to. But Alexander didn't respond for a long time. Quinn held on for a bit, then drifted back to sleep.

Alexander gently pried her fingers off, tucked her in, and left the room.

Soren came in to change her IV bottle.

The next morning, her fever had gone down a bit, yet she still had a slight fever.

Soren put another fever patch on her, looked around downstairs, and found Olivia. "Where's Mr. Kennedy?" he asked.

Olivia, busy cleaning the dining table, didn't look up. "He went out early this morning. He's been really busy lately."

"I see," Soren replied, deep in thought, and headed back to the living room.

Quinn slept all day, and Alexander didn't come back.

Soren couldn't help but wonder, 'What's Alexander so busy with? Quinn's still sick, and he's nowhere to be seen. How is this any different from before? Does Quinn's life or death not matter to him?' Abigail didn't show up today either. The house, usually bustling, felt eerily quiet.

There had been some progress in Stanley's matter, but it wasn't good news.

Kaitlyn had heard that when Wayne made his will, another lawyer was present beside Stanley.

After much effort, she tracked down that lawyer.

In the villa, Kaitlyn sat across from a middle-aged man.

She handed him a document. "Mr. White, do you recognize this will?"

Paul White took the document and carefully examined it.

"Yes, this is the will Wayne made. Both Stanley and I were there, personally witnessing it."

Kaitlyn felt a pang of disappointment. "Is this really the will he made?"

She hadn't expected Wayne to value Alexander so much.

After reading it, Paul frowned. "But later, Wayne made another will, which hasn't been notarized."

"Although I don't know if this will was revoked, Stanley and I have both seen the later will, but we aren't sure where it is."

Kaitlyn was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked, "Really? When was the will changed?"

Paul thought for a moment. "A year or two ago, I can't quite remember."

Kaitlyn asked again, "If I find this will, can it take effect over the previous one?"

Paul frowned. "It's not certain. In theory, both wills are valid. If there are multiple wills, the notarized one should prevail. When multiple wills conflict, the last one should prevail. So both wills are valid; it depends on how you weigh them." Kaitlyn was in a bit of a dilemma. She thought, 'I haven't seen the later will and don't know the situation, but given Wayne and Alexander's relationship, Alexander definitely wouldn't get as much inheritance in the later will. And why did Wayne make a new will but not directly change it? Did he forget, or was he hesitating?'

While Kaitlyn was deep in thought, a few people suddenly came in from outside.

The butler quickly stepped forward and said to her, "Mrs. Kennedy, Landon is here."

Kaitlyn was stunned for a moment. When she turned around, she saw Landon walking in with two people.

Considering him as Wayne's illegitimate son, she didn't feel inclined to get up and greet him.

"Mrs. Kennedy, I apologize for the sudden visit," Landon greeted her politely.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Kaitlyn gave him a cold look. He was wearing a silver-gray suit and gold-rimmed glasses, looking quite refined.

'I have to admit, Wayne's taste in women is impeccable, and even the children they have are quite good-looking,' Kaitlyn thought.

Landon's eyebrows vaguely resembled Wayne's.

"What are you here for?" Kaitlyn asked coldly.

Landon glanced at Paul and said calmly, "I'm here to see Mr. White. I've heard of his reputation for a long time but never had the chance to meet him. Knowing that you invited him over, I came uninvited, hoping to make friends with Mr. White."
