Really?” Wendy asked eagerly. “I want to go to Silverridge first. The scenery at Lake Kessler is breathtaking this t

Something about that name sounded oddly familiar.

Now, during the same October holiday, Wendy suggested it, and his first instinct was to say no. his mind.

the thought of Charlotte made him change

“Alright, let’s go to Silvertidge.”

They sat and watched TV for a while, but Zac couldn’t shake the irritation simmering inside him.

“You just got out of the hospital. Stay home and rest. I need to go out for a bit.”

Wendy was smart enough not to ask where he was going

Eugene gave bilen a weird look. “Didn’t you just say Charlotte was your girlfriend? You spent all that time in the hospital with Wendy, and Charlotte didn’t lose it on you?”

Zac’s expression darkened.

Lose It? She did more the that. She dumped him.
