Laura glanced unconsciously at Zach, who was smoking outside. “Well, at the very least, it’s fulfilling.”

“That’s good. I hope the Olsen family can provide you with a sense of fulfillment instead of self-denial.” Josie propped her head up. “I’m happy for you, as it seems you’re no longer held back by Zach.”
