Yet I argued back. “You come with me, and it’ll make me feel really bad.”
“Sawyer—”
“Please stay.”
He glowered angrily at me. “Fine. But I’m driving you to the airport.”
“That I will allow.” My hands shook as I ran them through my wet hair. “I’m going to pack.”
CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT
SEBASTIAN
Yesterday 19.46
Lily: I’ve arrived. Jan’s home now so heading straight there.
Sebastian: Let me know when you get there.
L: I will.
S: And let me know how Jan is.
L: I will. Love you.
S: Love you too.
Yesterday 20.31
L: I’m home. Jan is exhausted but okay. Her wrist is in a cast. I feel better seeing her for myself.
S: I’m glad. Tell her I’m asking for her.
L: I did. How are things there?
S: Zac just told me he invited a bunch of people here tomorrow. They’re flying in from all over.
L: How do you feel about that?
S: It’ll be a distraction from missing you, I suppose.
L:
Today 09:22
S: Morning, Sawyer. How’s Jan?
L: Grumpy but fine. Annoyed at me for leaving you to rush to her side. The gratitude is overwhelming, I tell ya.
S: LOL. Secretly she’s pleased. I’m not. I missed waking up with you this morning.
L: Me too. What are the plans for today?
S: Apparently, I have a bunch of guests to welcome, remember. You?
L: I might as well study. Jan’s grumpiness is making me long for you and the villa. Remind me I love her.
S: You love your sister.
