Love Unspoken

Chapter 1491 Calvin packed his stuff and left Municity after a couple of days.

Before he took off, he borrowed two million bucks from Alexander. Trusting Alexander, he handed over his entire account, leaving himself with zilch. Alexander was managing Calvin's account but couldn't touch the funds directly. The employees' paychecks cfrom a separate Lynch family account.

Feeling a bit guilty, Alexander slipped Calvin an extra twenty grand.

Truth be told, Alexander wasn't rolling in dough either. After a few transactions, Calvin's money ended up in Quinn's account.

Quinn never bothered to check her account. With so much cash just sitting there, she was too lazy to count it and had no clue about the exact amount.

Knowing Alexander couldn't even afford a plane ticket, Calvin was really touched when he got that extra twenty grand.

The day after Calvin left, a medical scientist showed up to see Alexander.

This guy was the professor in charge of researching a special drug. He cto see Alexander in person. Alexander was kinda surprised.

The professor got straight to the point. "Calvin sentto help you." Alexander eyed him suspiciously. "You trying to makea guinea pig?" The professor shook his head seriously. "Nope, he askedto see if we could whip up a special drug to keep you alive longer." Calvin's exact instructions were to see if Alexander could be saved or if a special drug could be made just for him.

The drug Alexander was on would stop working once antibodies developed, with a conservative estimate of ten years. But, depending on the person, it could be as short as five to eight years. After thinking it over, Alexander decided to go with the professor.

He figured he had nothing to lose; every extra day was a win.

They headed to a remote place in the mountains, with zero signal. Before going in, he sent a message to Quinn and then went off the grid.

Quinn couldn't reach him by phone; all she had was his message saying he was heading to the mountains and might not have a signal.

Alexander didn't say how long he'd be gone.

Quinn tried calling every three days for half a month but couldn't get through to Alexander.

Finally, she gave in and called Calvin.

Calvin was back with the Lynch family. They wanted him to stick around because their business was tanking after the Future Era incident, and they needed his help.

But Calvin was pretty useless in the office; he couldn't even make a PowerPoint presentation. So, it was just a lexcuse they cup with.

What really bugged Calvin was that they put him in the scompany as Walter.

On his first day at work, Calvin rocked up in sunglasses and got into it with the department head for refusing to take them off. That little spat cost him half a month's salary.

When Quinn called, Calvin was goofing off in the office, still stuck on a PowerPoint presentation he'd been working on for a week. The department head cby to hassle him again, and they almost threw down. Quinn's call saved the department head's skin.

Calvin answered, still fuming. "What do you want?" Quinn, sensing his mood, asked gently, "Calvin, is everything okay?" Calvin snapped, "I'm fine, just dealing with smorons!" The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. Even though he promised Alexander he'd stick it out, dealing with these idiots every day was pushing his limits.

He took a deep breath to calm down. "What do you need?" Quinn asked, "Aren't you with Alexander? He toldhalf a month ago he was heading to the mountains, and then I lost contact. Didn't you go with him?" Calvin was stunned, and his anger flared up again. "You haven't calledin ages, and now you call to ask about Alexander? Didn't you say I'm your favorite person?" Quinn explained, "I thought you might be busy." Calvin retorted, "You're worried aboutbeing busy, but not when you call Alexander." Quinn went quiet for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry, Calvin." Calvin sighed, "Forget it. He's with me, so don't worry. Just because you can't reach him doesn't mean it's the end of the world. Do you really think Alexander would run off with another woman? If he did, I'd be the first to break his legs!" Quinn clarified, "That's not what I meant." It had been half a month, not just a day.

But saying that would only rile Calvin up more, so Quinn kept it to herself.

Calvin said, "Alexander's fine; I'm the one with problems. Bye!" The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. If Alexander hadn't warned him in advance, he would've gone to settle the score with Zeke.

Walter knew all about Calvin's situation in the department.

He couldn't help but find it amusing. "Calvin's surprisingly patient. I underestimated him." The department head stood in front of him with swollen eyes. Calvin might have been patient, but he was the one getting beat up.

Despite knowing Calvin's ruthless background in Municity the om department head had to act ignorant and provoke him every few days, which nearly scared him to death.

Walter twirled a pen between his fingers and said calmly, "Don't worry. This isn't Municity, Keep pushing him as long as he doesn't kill you, you're making progress." The department head fell silent. Read himicity the latest chapter there! Walter smiled thoughtfully, looking into the distance.

Calvin had returned, but Walter couldn't act directly. He had to keep ΟΠΙ stirring the pot between Calvin and the Lyneh family. Once they turned on each other, Walter's goal would be in the bag.
