335 Shooting Oneself in the Foot (1)

"I didn't expect you would come here sooner," Adrienne commented when it dawned on her how fast her husband arrived, considering it hadn't been too long since she asked Myrtle to call him.

"I was buying sweets at the nearby cafe when Myrtle called me. I rushed over as soon as I heard the urgency in her voice. It's surprising how quickly I made it here."

When he heard from Myrtle that Alistair had found Adrienne at Purple Cloud, Lennox feared that the man would be able to get a hold of Adrienne's fears. He knew his wife's nightmares weren't over, and Adrienne still struggled with the trauma she had experienced. Lennox hoped that Alistair's presence wouldn't worsen her condition and that he could provide the support she needed during this difficult time.

"Fortunately, I made it in time." Lennox smiled as he drew her into his embrace, resting the side of his face against her head.
