Just slightly under two hours due to Sam’s expert driving, they finally arrived in the next town.
Zary had known of and been in this town before because this was her previous assistant, Ashley’s, home address. One time, she had spent the night in Ashley’s house years ago and she instantly loved the entire Drummond family. Mrs. Drummond, Ashley’s mother, was such an engaging woman and Zary had enjoyed talking to her as if she had known her for a long time already. The woman just had a way with carrying herself that made others warm up to her automatically – and Zary was not exempted from it.
They parted ways too soon though, because Miss Drummond got married and had to step down from her job when she got pregnant.
