(Reese)
Simone found me one last time before I left.
She didn't say much. She just looked at me with the same expression she'd worn all evening and handed me her phone.
An email filled the screen.
International press.
They wanted an exclusive feature.
I looked up at her.
She smiled.
"I told you," she said.
"You told me," I replied.
She slipped the phone back into her pocket.
"Go home," she said. "I'll handle the rest tonight."
"Simone."
"Go," she repeated. "You've done enough for one day."
I looked at her for another second before nodding.
Noah was waiting by the door.
He didn't say anything when we stepped outside.
He walked beside me to the car, opened my door, got behind the wheel, and pulled away from the curb without asking where I wanted to go.
He already knew.
