Every weekend, I'm shuttling back and forth between you both. Do you know how exhausting that is?" Terence chuckled. "Are you sure you're the one accompanying us?"

She felt that such pointless companionship wasn't necessary.
"I told him he could work from hand only needed to show up when I needed him, but he's stubborn. He insists on keeping his word. But he knows what he's doing-he won't let it interfere with his work."

Maryanne glanced at it and then turned to ask, "Lily, you paid last time, so it's my turn this time. What do you want to eat?" "I'll choose," Lily said, selecting a newly opened barbeque restaurant based on Maryanne's tastes. "Last tdoesn't count."
"Don't be so polite with me. You've been saving your money for Hayden's treatment," Maryahne replied, handing the tablet back to Terence. "Barbeque sounds good Terence placed the tablet in his bag. "I'll drive you there. Afterward, you can pick up the car from the cinema." Lily nodded. "Sounds good." She and Maryanne got into Terence's car. They chatted casually during the ride, and the atmosphere was light and cheerful.
