Chapter 23 Offering Herself

For a moment, Rose was tempted.

But, she still had not figured out the truth behind her mother's accident. She could not leave Aquastead with an easy heart.

She was thinking of ways to decline the offer when Evan's gentle voice rang

He had just finished his inspections. As he sat at his office desk, he found himself waiting for a call from Rose.
