Chapter 446

Early the following morning, Roxanne saw the message Larry had sent last night as soon as she awakened. It read: Are you free tomorrow? How about a meal together?

She mulled over her work that day before texting back: At noon, then. We‘ll have lunch near the research institute.

“Have you finished your work? I‘m waiting for you at the research institute gates.” Larry‘s voice rang out the instant she answered the call.
