Melvin meant every word. He wasn’t someone who asked for much out of life. All he really wanted was for Freya and her family to be safe, to live in peace. And for Jessica—a girl so sincere and warm—he hoped she would find someone who truly made her happy.

“Before you start giving me life advice, maybe take a good look at yourself,” Jessica said in her usual breezy tone. “You’re over thirty and haven’t even dated once. If people found out, they’d think something’s seriously wrong with you.”
