Mission To Remarry

Colby took a long time to gather himself before nodding slowly, still stupefied with disbelief.

Lucian retracted his gaze. “I want to thank you for your words earlier. I won't give in, and Roxanne will get better.”

Colby felt a sudden sense of relief at those words. “She will. I hope you'll let me know when you get married so I can wish you well.”

Lucian inclined his head.

With his mind buzzing with Colby's words as he emerged from the facility, Lucian gradually regained his calm.

Lucian nodded.
