Chapter 222 Seventeen: Ford

• She looks up to the president, who presses his lips together but finally nods. "I know what you've done for me and what you've done for your country. You're a good man, Ford, and I'm proud that my daughter chose someone like you."
• Having them accept our relationship makes this whole thing a lot easier. Now instead of my escape plan I'm thinking of land I can buy and how many acres we'll need.
