Initially, Janet had only planned to stay one night at the beach. However, the seaside was so beautiful, and Ethan hadn’t relaxed in so long, so they decided to stay the whole weekend.

Come Monday, Janet went back to Barnes. She felt bad for asking for a week’s leave. Moreover, she hadn’t been able to contact Laney ever since she left her house.

Janet was worried that something might’ve happened to Laney, but Ethan kept reassuring her that Laney was a tough woman and a bodyguard. If anyone could protect her from harm, it would be herself.

Still, Janet went directly to Laney’s apartment when she landed in Barnes.

She rang the doorbell a couple of times before the door was finally opened.

“Laney, you haven’t replied to any of my texts. Did you ever stop to consider how worried I’d be?” Janet pulled a long face.

She had brought with her two bags of groceries. Laney was by no means a good cook, so Janet knew that Laney hadn’t been taking care of herself while she was gone.

Laney stepped aside and let Janet in. She was still in low spirits, but she managed to force a smile. “Sorry. My phone’s screen broke the day you left, so I had it repaired and didn’t get it back until today.”

Looking at the dullness in her eyes, Janet didn’t have the heart to scold her again.
