When Jungler realized she hadn’t specified a location, he sent over an address for the Sapphire Sojourn Hotel, with a quick message, “Is this okay?”

As long as it was in Greenmeadow, she feared nothing.

Yates nodded, “Sounds good.”

Cordelia was taken aback, “What’s PC version?”

“That would be for the computer.”
