Chapter 195
- HAYLEY
- “We are going to need to be careful with you right now. You’re hopped up on adrenaline, and I know that you might crash at any second. It’s important that you get the proper aftercare you need, even if you don’t think you need it.” Monroe strokes his fingers over mine, holding me in the front seat of the car. Walcott and Govan left us with Cooper the second we arrived back to the Bella to update everyone on the situation.
- “Sawyer is going to be hella fucking annoyed that we didn’t bring Modesto back, especially because he could’ve interrogated him a bit longer, so I suggest we stay out of his way with Hayley until he calms down a bit. Let Knox remind him what’s important. We don’t have to use every damn person as an information bomb. It is okay to let our girl do what makes her feel better and figure everything else out for ourselves.” Monroe speaks to Cooper but doesn’t hide his thoughts from me. He’s probably right about Sawyer, except I know that one look at me right now will change his mind.
