Chapter 28
“Dakota, now that the contract has been signed, do you feel a little
more relaxed?” Cameron asked with a smile as they walked toward
the company’s parking lot.
“Yeah.”
Dakota nodded slightly, but her face lacked the expected joy and instead appeared somewhat downcast.
“Are you still thinking about what happened earlier?” Cameron

“I didn’t expect to see Maddy here. She misunderstood me, but I didn’t
