Five Years of Marriage to Mr. Bradford
Vance was asleep, and from the looks of it, he had been there overnight.
The village chief patted him on the shoulder. "Mr. Bradford, wake up."
Vance roused groggily, his head pounding heavily. The sight of Elton Wilcox's looming close startled him.
"Mr. Wilcox? I..." He blinked, wondering what was going on.
Elton was bewildered. "Mr. Bradford, why were you sleeping here? Did you forget your keys?"
Vance took in his surroundings, gradually piecing together the events. It was his birthday yesterday; Catherine and the guys had organized a celebration.
