Outside the window, the city lights began to glow. A faint, fresh fragrance wafted through the private room.
Nate Jennings groggily opened her eyes to find Howard sitting alone on the sofa, a melancholic look in his eyes as he gazed out the window.
She followed his gaze. Outside, a stream of traffic flowed under the bright city lights.
He seemed to have something on his mind.
She had only met this man a few times, but he had saved her every single time.
She didn't even know what he did for a living or what his name was. Nor did she know why he was here right now.
She remembered having dinner with Douglas Wright before he drugged her. She had even told Amy to call the police.
But...
"Why are you here?" She sat up and pulled the blanket tighter, finding it strange that her clothes were perfectly intact.
"I saw that fat guy taking advantage of you, so I played the hero and saved the damsel in distress." Howard turned to face her, his smile gentle.
