Chapter 54

• Wyatt Reed’s heart tightened, and his eyes clouded. He was utterly unaware of Ivy’s existence. He had no idea she could play the violin so beautifully, nor that she smoked.
• “Because I was scared you wouldn’t like it, I never smoked in front of you before, so you never got to see it.”
• Ivy felt relatively weak every time she donated blood. Wyatt escorted Alice Perez, and Ivy’s sole company was to light a cigarette and smoked. During those trying times, she became strongly addicted to cigarettes.
