Chapter 65

"Good girl." Sylvia smiled contentedly. "No rush. Enjoy some afternoon tea with me before you go."

The documents Gilbert needed weren't urgent until the evening. Heading out too early wouldn't be proper. It'd be better to leave for the evening.

Upon arrival, following the address sent by Sylvia, Sherilyn walked a while longer before finding the hotel where Gilbert was staying.
