Jamaican home to get some rest. She probably
hasn’t been eating right and her resistance is down.
I’m going to try calling her again tonight. I’m really
going to give her a good looking-over when she
flies in for Marcus’s graduation in a few weeks.”
Taylor nodded. Their cousin Marcus, Chance’s
oldest son, would be graduating from high school.
The family was excited about his acceptance into
Yale University. “Okay. Let me know if you get
Cheyenne and she tells you anything. Like you, I
think she hasn’t been eating properly.”
“Do you plan on leaving your phone turned on
during the time you’re on that island?”
“No, but I will make it a point to check my messages.”
Vanessa laughed. “Do you think Dominic is
going to give you the time to do that?”
She knew what Vanessa was insinuating. “I’m
going to take the time regardless.”
“If Dominic Saxon is the man I think he is, the
man I read about in all those magazines, you
won’t have time to do much all week but stay on
your back.”
