Out of Ashes Into His Heart novel Chapter 60

"What happened? Is that woman out of her mind?"

I briefly explained everything that had happened today and also shared the gossip Tom had told me earlier.

"This situation is so complicated! I feel like there's something fishy going on here," Dawn said, scratching her head. "Ugh! My head hurts. I feel like I need to use my brain more."

I was speechless.

I smiled and gently pulled her hand down. "Alright. Let's not worry about her."

The doorbell rang, and a voice called from outside, "Delivery!"

"Our seafood boil is here!" Dawn excitedly ran to open the door.

"Here's your delivery."

"Thank you!" She quickly took the bag from the delivery person.

But just as I was about to close the door, the door across the hall opened with a creak.

"Tom?"

I stared in shock at the man who walked out of the door across from mine, feeling like my brain was about to crash.

Tom was living here too? And right across from me?

"Why… Why are you…" I stammered.

"Why are you so surprised?" Tom tilted his head and smiled. "Can't I live here?"

Dawn was the first to react. "Mr. White, have you eaten? Do you want to join us?"

"No thanks. Something came up at the company. I have to go. You two enjoy your meal."

After he left, she excitedly closed the door. "I think Mr. White has been planning this for a while! He even lives across from you! Does that mean the next step is moving in together?"

I was speechless.

"Stop joking around."
