Chapter 1861

Sensing that Marlowe wasnt in the mood for more questions, Milly shifted the topic.

Well, enough about that, Now that youve got a new job and my roommates moving out soon for work, I am thinking… Why dont you move in with me? Marlowe considered the offer.

She did have enough saved for rent now, and the thought of returning to that damp, cold basement made her shudder.

You know what? That sounds perfect, she said, a genuine smile finally forming.

Lets do it.

I can move in as soon as the contracts signed.

Marlowe and Milly reveled at the bar late into the night, their laughter and chatter blending with the ambient noise.

As the evening wound down, they bid each other farewell, their spirits still high.

When Marlowe got home, her mind snapped to her promise to Milly about moving in with her.

She darted to her room, eager to start packing.

Amid the flurry of clothes and belongings, her hands brushed against something-Mitchels coat. The garment, now clean and fresh, was a reminder of an unfinished task.
