Chapter 59

“Alright. Don’t feel bad about it. I’ll have Emily send you horne,” Brian said as he gently patted Evelyn on the head. Evelyn’s heart went into a brief panic when she realized Brian wasn’t planning to send her home himself. But she knew she couldn’t push her luck.

She lowered her head slightly and said, “That’s good… Brian, I really can’t lose you.” With that, she got into Emily’s car.
