Chapter 13 She's All I Have Left

• Avery was left in a state of shock, taken aback by Evan's sudden appearance. Her mouth went open, but no words could come out. She couldn't help but wonder how he’d known she was here.
• "Will you get in, or do you prefer to stand there staring at me as if you saw a ghost?" he asked, his gaze focused on hers.
• It was pouring heavily, and her situation made her feel overwhelmed; Avery couldn't hold back the tears any longer. Evan shook his head in disbelief as he got out of his car, swiftly took off his coat, and draped it over her shoulder.
