Chapter 16 Chapter 16

Evely comes up with some perfectly plausible reasons for why her father s notes are in the joh family secret recipe book. Her father had worked for the joh family restaurant prior to his death and had been so important that he probably would have had a stake in bright company had he not passed away. She convinces herself that it s not so weird and instead it must be fate or something that she found her father s lost notes via Jackson and La Mure.

She and Jackson chat a little more before they go to bed. Each has reasons to thank the other for opening up their worldview. Before they go to sleep (holding hands without much prompting cute!), Jackson re-emphasizes to Evely that she can come to him with any problems she has. He doesn t want her going to Noah anymore.
