Chapter 85: The Big Apple

Emily was ready to go on a trip to New York City since a retailer had made a serious offer to promote her design company. Emily had booked the tickets back when things had been more bleak: Byron was working himself to death and she needed space from the relationship. She was reluctant to leave now, when Byron was finally coming back to normality, even though he was still working fairly long hours and had some kind of secret project going on. No matter how she tried to find out what it was, he was silent on the subject. The only thing she knew was that it involved cupcakes because she had overheard him putting in an order from a bakery once. Although she wasn’t completely sure if that was related to the secret project or just some work function.
