Chapter 1335

She had no intention of arranging a get-together just yet. With the situation around the organization still unresolved, meeting up with Lydia and Quincy could only risk drawing unwanted attention toward them. It would be putting them in harm's way. "When we get home, I'll reach out to Quincy. I have a project at the company that I'd like to collaborate on with him," Nash said.
