Chapter 120

Kenneth didn’t have a clue when Dorothy’s flight would land. He only knew it was in the wee hours of the moming. So he’d been here since eleven in the evening, waiting.

Before Dorothy could even respond to his message, she heard Kenneth calling her.

She looked up, and there he was at the arrivals gate, donned in a dark coat, looking all beat.

“Dorothy, over here!”

She started walking toward him with her luggage, and, just like that, Kenneth took it from her.

“Tired, huh? Hop in. I take you to Karen’s. You need a good sleep. Ive got a bunch of pals coming over tomorrow morning to help figure things out. They’re all hotshots in this field. I wouldn’t trust myself with this, so I called them.”

Kenneth was talking a mile a minute, reminding her of Karen.

But in the dead of night, his words felt like a warm, comforting, and familiar embrace.
