Chapter 111: Lunch Date

- DEX -

The entire morning goes by without even the smallest stumbling block or surprise person from my past showing up or cutting remark from my brother, and I'm starting to wonder just how much energy Lawson put into making things harder for me rather than just doing his job. It's beautiful how much smoother things seem to run when he's not here. 

Everyone seems happy and particularly motivated today with only a few people stopping by my office to inquire about Lawson's missing presence. I could get used to this. 

Laurel comes into my office just as my phone pings with a text from Raya.
