Chapter 142

Geoffrey disliked having outsiders around when traveling alone with her.

Before leaving, he’d told Wayne not to call unless absolutely necessary.

On the way to Small Town, heavy rain was falling steadily.

Maureen sat in the passenger seat and inadvertently caught sight of Geoffrey’s handsome profile. Her breath hitched, but she quickly averted her gaze to look out the car window.
