Girl Get Rid Of That Jerk (Williams and Shawn) novel Chapter 410

If it weren’t for Kate and her ridiculous antics, he wouldn’t have heard Allie’s voice today at all.

...

Steve’s idea of a solution was simple: assign someone to keep an eye on Kate 24/7, just to make sure she didn’t try to run off again. Other than leaving the country, she could technically go wherever she wanted—but it was always under watchful eyes.
