NovelOnlineChapter 1279 Abigail was in the ward with Landon. She'd already hit up Oliver, who was on his way to scoop her up, so she wasn't planning on wandering around. She didn't know this place well, and it was sketchy outside. Last thing she wanted was to dive headfirst into another mess right after dodging one. Landon had made it, barely. Doc said if they'd been any later, not even a miracle could've saved him once he bled out.
This hospital was out in the boonies and tiny, but it had a bunch of brainy folks working on meds. Luckily, they had a pharma company backing them, so they were loaded with medical supplies. With enough cash, they could probably save someone on their last breath.
Landon was still out cold, been in a coma for days. He was so weak, you could count the times he woke up on one hand.
Abigail was just sitting there, chin in hand, watching the tenth bird fly by the window.
When the door creaked open, she turned and saw Quinn and Walter stroll in. She was first like, "Whoa," then jumped up.

Quinn was just as surprised. She thought Walter brought her to the hospital 'cause Abigail was hurt, but nope, Abigail was fine. It was Landon who was laid up in the bed.
She suddenly remembered Alexander saying Abigail didn't need her worry. Guess he was right; Abigail really didn't need her fussing.
When Abigail saw Quinn's eyes land on the hospital bed, her smile faded, and her face got all complicated and awkward.
She quickly stepped forward to grab Quinn's hand, but Quinn instinctively stepped back.
Abigail was a bit taken aback, staring at Quinn in surprise. She opened her mouth but didn't say anything. Walter was watching them, a playful grin on his face.
He chimed in, "Abigail, Quinn's been stressing about you every day. If it weren't for you, she and Alexander would've been back hages ago. Alexander wouldn't have..." Before he could finish, Quinn shot him a look. Walter chuckled and left it hanging.
Frowning, Abigail asked, "What happened to him?" "Ask her," Walter said, then strolled past Abigail towards the hospital bed.
Abigail looked at Quinn intently. Walter's words gave her a bad vibe. With Quinn's attitude, her gut told her Alexander might be in trouble.
Quinn was at a loss for words. She was just having a hard tdealing with it, but she had no right to blAbigail.
She remembered Abigail's kindness. Abigail got kidnapped because of her.
Maybe Abigail had her reasons.

They stared at each other for a moment. Then Quinn looked up and asked, "You okay?"
Abigail hesitated and took her hand.
This time, Quinn didn't pull away, making Abigail feel a bit better. "Let's talk outside," Abigail suggested, leading Quinn downstairs and out of the hospital.
The hospital was small, so they reached the entrance in just a few! steps. There weren't many people E'T.

"What did Walter mean by what he said just now?" Abigail asked again.
Quinn looked at her with a complicated expression, her lipsm twitching. Those scenes replayed in her mind again, and she couldn't say a word.
