Chapter Title: (129) JH-01

"I'll find a way to make it up to you," Marley told him as she went through the stacks of mail on the dining table, while he ate in the seat beside her, "The cleaning. The flight. Being here and involved in my family drama. Breakfast isn't enough."

Aiden put his foot down about paying this time, since he chose the health food restaurant he likes to order from often.
