Chapter 121

• Carmen wasn’t sure what to expect when she received the text from Ronin a little after they went to their rooms after dinner, asking her to meet him on the rooftop.
• To her massive relief, Molly had decided to sleep in one of the other guest rooms in the house, saying that she had a lot of office work to catch up on—something about a new order her company had recently landed. Of course, Carmen had been more than happy to encourage her best friend to focus on her work, but also not without a reminder not to stay awake too late. It couldn’t be good for her health, now could it?
• Anyway, the absence of Molly anywhere near her didn’t make her any less cautious, there was still Jasper to worry about. The guy was literally like a ghost, popping in and out of absolutely nowhere.
