章 269: Chapter 269: Filling In

Dad didn't say anything while Mom sighed, bending to kiss my cheek before brushing past him on her way out. I let her go, not willing to think about what Dr. Aberstock said.

My father, instead of dwelling on such a future, filled me in on the past. "Thankfully I was with Chris and Wanda looking at the live feed of their surveillance when you showed up tonight." That's how he knew where I was? "We watched Doreen follow you on board." He sounded a bit bemused. "She didn't look happy, so I went to check on you."

"I'm glad you did," I said.
