He had a big mansion to return to, but he didn't. Why did he have to stay in her house and lie on her sofa?
Shannon didn't want to think about it anymore, so she got up, took some sleeping pills, and went to bed.
The next day, sunlight filtered through the curtains into the room, and there was a cool breeze.
Shannon opened her eyes and pulled the curtains open. The thunderstorm last night seemed like a dream, there were no more traces of it.
She put on her clothes and opened her bedroom door. Max was no longer in the house. There was only a table full of dishes that reminded her that he had indeed been here last night.
Shannon threw all the dishes away. The moment she saw the dishes, she thought of Max. She didn't want him in her mind again.
After packing up, Shannon took the documents that Max had given her yesterday and started the appeal. With these documents, it was easy for her to restart the proceedings again.
