"I hope you never tell Donovan about our history," Chris said.
Giselle paused. "I won't."
"I mean never," he emphasized. "Not today, not tomorrow, not ever. Let that secret stay buried deep in your heart. Treat it as if it never happened."
"Okay." Giselle had already made up her mind about that anyway.
She had actually been worried that Chris might slip up, so hearing him make the request was a relief. "Don't worry. As far as anyone knows, we never met before coming here."
"Good," replied Chris.
Silence filled the car again, broken only by the hum of the tires on the highway.
Giselle leaned back in her seat and glanced at Chris. Seeing his quiet focus gave her a sense of peace. The rescue of Billy had erased her lingering suspicions, and she finally felt safe around him.
The next six months brought a period of unprecedented peace to Giselle's life.
