Chapter 138

Garrett pulled to the side of the road, punched the phone button on his navigation system, and chose Maddy's number.

"Hello?"

His chest constricted when he heard her soft, sexy voice. "Hi, Maddy. It's Garrett. How're you doing?"

"So good to hear from you. I could use a friend right now. Have you heard about my mother?" He could picture her pale complexion, her swollen red eyes filled with tears she wouldn't let go.

"Yes. I'm so sorry. What can I do to help?"

"There's so much going on right now, I can't think of what to do first." Her voice trembled.

Garrett pulled into a gas station and took a couple of deep breaths. He would always be there for her, and he hoped she knew it. "Maddy, it's me. You can tell me anything. I'll help you get through this. You can count on me."
