Summer (2007)
““We have to go.”
She nodded, but she said nothing. What could she say until they met with Dr. McDaniel, until they found out whatever it was that had darkened her expression a few minutes earlier?
Just as Landon reached for the door handle, there was a knock from the other side. “Ashley?” It sounded like Brooke.
Landon exchanged a look with his wife. “Don’t say anything.”
“I won’t.” Ashley gave a sharp shake of her head. “It might be nothing.”
Landon held on to that truth. Even if the meeting a...head of them was only protocol, this wasn’t the time to visit with Ashley’s sister. But they couldn’t avoid it, either. Brooke was a doctor, and her office was one floor above Dr. McDaniel’s. She knew about Ashley’s ultrasound this morning, and she was bound to stop by. All of the Baxters knew about Ashley’s ultrasound, and everyone had their opinions about whether she was having a boy or a girl.
“Come in.” Landon glanced at the clock on the wall. This had to be short.MoreLess
