"Don't worry, I promise I'll be there."

Karen flashed a smile. "I'm over at 2 Sunnybrook Estate. Annie, don't forget to swing by early tomorrow, okay? Give me a ring when you're close! Never mind, I'll just call you!" Annie was well-aware of Sunnybrook Estate, the ritzy neighborhood of Cloudcrest.

To say that the real estate there was worth its weight in gold would be an understatement.

Karen must be rolling in dough to live in a place like that!

After spending an afternoon at the Yeagers', and triple-checking that Annie would show up as promised, Karen reluctantly left their home.

Annie walked her to the entrance of the complex.

The Christensen family's car was already parked curbside, with Baber, the driver, at the wheel.

As Karen settled into the car, her grin didn't fade. Leaning back, she asked, "Baber, you been working your tail off driving lately?"

Baber blinked, a strange sense of déjà vu washing over him.

Karen had only struck up a conversation with him twice before.
