By the time everything was taken care of, night had already fallen. The results wouldn’t come in immediately, and only then did Johnathan realize they’d barely eaten all day–aside from the quick bite he and Sierra had earlier. He could manage, but Sierra had stuck by his side the whole time and hadn’t caten either.

He pulled himself together and took her outside. There weren’t many places to eat in this small town, so they picked a simple restaurant, grabbed a meal, and headed back to the inn to wait for news.

Meanwhile, Chandler got word that Johnathan hadn’t left town. He frowned. “Dad, what now? He’s still here.” Chandler had deliberately said those harsh things carlier in hopes of driving him away. But Johnathan was calmer than expected and clearly had no intention of leaving. If he came back again, Chandler wasn’t sure he could keep the truth hidden–and with Johnathan’s temperament, things could easily spiral out of control. After all, Chandler had helped raise him. He couldn’t help but feel conflicted.

Back in their country, Chase stiffened when he picked up the phone. “What did you just say? Johnathan came to see you? Why didn’t you tell me earlier? What did you say to him?” His questions came rapid–fire. Once Chandler finished explaining, Chase went quiet for a while before finally responding, “Got it.”

Susie, who had been beside him the whole time, immediately asked, “What happened?” Chase sighed. “We might not be able to hide it anymore.” Susie’s face went pale. Her lips moved, but it took her a long moment before she whispered, “He’s going to hate us.”
