Chapter 39 : What Is She Doing Here?

*Oliver*

I stayed with Lindsey or Peter until the cops told me that my house wasn’t a crime scene anymore. I was still out on bail, so I had to watch my step every minute. I was glad to be able to return home, though.

Peter and Lindsey were good friends, but they both constantly needed things from me. Lindsey wanted to go over every detail of my case every second, and Peter needed my support with the business.

He wasn’t used to playing hardball like I was.

I was really looking forward to showering without the bathroom door opening half a dozen times with more questions.

I was glad that my lawyer and business partner were so thorough and determined to do their jobs while also looking out for me, but I needed some time to myself!

The police hadn’t really cleaned up the “crime scene.” They’d just removed their pretty yellow tape. My house was still a mess from Gia’s crazed ransacking.
