y back downstairs. I

glance nervously through the great room, but all is quiet . . . thank hea一vens.

Taylor will be back tomorrow evening, and Christian is generally calmer when

he’s around. Taylor is spending some quality time today and tomorrow with

his daughter. I wonder idly if I’ll ever get to meet her.

Mrs. Jones comes out of the utility room. We startle each other.
