Ava leaves not much later. She told me she needs to work on her resume, which I don’t disagree with. I promised her I’d help her, telling her to send it to me afterward. I still intend to help her.

My name means more than James’ ever will, anyway. I’m not letting that filth stop her from pursuing her dreams ...
