How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue

Chapter 131

From the moment Elodie opened the passenger door of Jarrod's car to the second Sylvie-his actual girlfriend-arrived on the scene, Naylor witnessed the whole thing, every detail.

He couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle. How did he always manage to stumble into these kinds of dramatic moments?

"We'll see," came the calm reply.

Naylor clicked his tongue. "Dr. Warwick, with your experience, you'd do far more good back here than wasting it abroad. We need you."
