Isla Prescott had come to pick Annabelle up from the airport, but in the end, it was Annabelle who drove Isla home.
"I'm sorry, Annie. I'm causing you trouble." Isla Prescott felt awful. But ever since she'd heard the news of Shane Sterling's engagement, her mind had been in turmoil and her limbs had gone weak. For safety's sake, she really wasn't in any condition to drive.
"Don't worry about it." Seeing that she was still distraught, Annabelle Leighton asked, "Do you want me to stay and keep you company?"
"No, it's okay. You should head back."
Isla Prescott knew the first thing Annabelle would do after returning from a business trip was visit her grandmother, and she didn't want to hold her up. Besides, Annabelle staying wouldn't do any good. This was a hurdle she had to overcome on her own.
"Alright, then. Don't let your mind run wild. There are plenty of fish in the sea. If one doesn't work out, we'll just find another. Got it?"
"Yeah."
