Usually, surgeries for the eardrums had to be scheduled way in advance. However,
because the hospital was concerned Landon might actually demolish it, they arranged for
Lauren’s surgery to be done
immediately the morning after.
Landon hadn’t slept a wink or had a bite since the night before, and Angelina followed
suit.
Angelina had stayed loyal to Landon for ten years, the only woman in his life for so long
that had never
been swapped or replaced.
Angelina would always be by his side when a female companion was needed for whatever

together, but

Angelina knew very well that nothing beyond their current relationship would ever be
possible and never hoped for such.
She was privy to his habits by now and knew his boundaries when it came to other
