Chapter 102

“Nice one, Dr. White, you’ve got some acting chops!” Yolanda pats Hogan on the shoulder “Right back at ya.”

Lizetta looked at Hogan, puzzled, “Weren’t you off doing medical aid? What brings you here?”

“Just got back. Was worried about you girls being here, just in case, so I left the security guy my number to ring me up if there’s any trouble. Let’s get out of here.”

Hogan bent down to pick up two large luggage bags and headed downstairs first, “Don’t lift a finger; I’ll come back for the rest.”

As his tall figure descended, Yolanda nudged Lizetta with her shoulder.

“Remington’s given you a lift home before too, right? But I never saw him leave his number like that. Dr. White’s really quite a catch, uh!”

Lizetta clamped her hand over Yolanda’s mouth, “You’re quite the actress yourself. Hurry up and pack; you really want him to come back up here?!”

She grabbed two cardboard boxes, and Yolanda, knowing she didn’t want to talk about it, dropped the subject.

After they load everything into the trunk of Hogan’s car, they all hopped in, and he said, “Finding a temporary rental could be tough. I happen to have a two–bedroom place nearby that’s just sitting empty. Why don’t you check it out?”

Before Lizetta could reply, Hogan seemed to anticipate her concerns and added, “Don’t worry. I won’t let you crash for free. You’ll pay rent. It’s not good for the place to be empty anyway, and a little extra cash never hurts. Plus, you can help me keep an eye on it – it’s a win–win.”

Lizetta felt it was not quite right, but he’d made his offer so generously, and after all, Yolanda was in this mess because of her. Finding a spot last minute was a hassle.
