章節 250: Chapter 250: Call And Answer

Didn't matter Ethie hated me for not saving her father. My daughter's fury and tears did nothing to reach through the newly reinforced layers of safety from feeling I'd managed to create.

I was doing my part, keeping them safe like he asked. Quaid said nothing about actually giving a crap otherwise.

Nice of him.
