Chapter 58

The rest of his evening had gone by in a flash. Before he knew it, it was ten minutes to midnight and he was still at the office. He had a lot of work to catch up on, and the people he had put in charge were not doing enough satisfactory work for him. 

He got up and began putting his things together. Staying out this late had not been a problem for him in the past, but lately, he was starting to reconsider staying out so late. 

He dismissed Alexis for the night and drove himself home.

He had expected to meet Malia fast asleep, but she was in the sitting room, bundled up on the couch, wearing a bathrobe, and watching a movie. She turned to him as he entered the house, nodding in acknowledgment.

Grant stared at her, there was no change in her. She was just the same, the same before her big-mouthed parents decided to reveal everything to her.

She knew everything now, and she wasn't acting like she did. Could it be caution or fear? Grant couldn't tell.
