Chapter 121



Haley stood there, awkward and embarrassed, unable to muster a single word in response to my words. It was a discomfort she had brought upon herself.

"Ms. Perez, if there's nothing else, you might want to head home early. You're carrying a precious load, and any mishap would be unfortunate," I said, my words more of a genuine caution than sarcasm.
