Chapter 54

• Liz and Gage decided to grab dinner together at a nearby restaurant. They sat down at a cozy table by the window, and as they perused the menu, Liz couldn't help but steal glances at Gage.
• She had been drawn to him from the moment they met, but she had been hesitant to express her feelings, fearing that he might not reciprocate them. But as they sat there, laughing and chatting, Liz couldn't help but feel a sense of connection with Gage that she had never felt with anyone before.
• As they ordered their food and waited for it to arrive, Liz took a deep breath and decided to take a chance. She reached out and gently touched Gage's hand, her eyes locking onto his.
