Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 1161

Sarah Brown didn’t really care what happened to the Lees. What mattered most to her was her best friend’s safety.

“Did they catch that Patton guy yet? With all the evidence piling up, shouldn’t the police be making arrests by now?”

Dennis Williams gave her a reassuring nod. “It’s basically done. The evidence is already in, so the arrests are just a matter of process. Don’t worry, no one’s getting away.”

No matter who hurt Camila, Dennis would never let them off the hook. He always kept his promises.

Sarah believed him completely. She smiled, lifted her glass, and said, “Then let’s celebrate. The bad guys are finally getting what they deserve, and Camila is finally getting some justice.”

“Absolutely, that’s something worth toasting to,” Larry Adams chimed in, raising his glass with hers.

Lillian, who was sitting nearby, didn’t really follow what the adults were saying, but as soon as she heard “toast,” she eagerly picked up her juice and chimed in, “Lillian wants to toast too! Let’s celebrate!”

Sarah grinned at her. “Of course, you’re included. We can’t leave out our little sweetheart.” She clinked glasses with Lillian, who giggled and took a happy sip.

Everyone watched them, smiling at the scene.

Later that night, Audrey Williams got a photo from Sarah showing off the dinner. She stared at it, feeling a little left out, and couldn’t help complaining out loud, “You guys are the worst! Why didn’t you wait for me? So much for friendship!”

Sarah called her and teased, “Wait for you? For what? We’re all couples here. We thought you’d be too much of a third wheel and steal the spotlight.”

Audrey protested, “But Lillian’s there! I could’ve sat with her!”

Sarah laughed, “Lillian’s got Lightning hanging out with her. You, on the other hand, would just be alone. Better not bother her.”

“Sarah, you guys are so mean!” Audrey whined, half laughing, half pouting.
