The Woman Who Woke Up Unafraid
The woman approached first. “Mr. Whitman, the photo is already circulating.”
“What photo?” Emily asked.
The woman turned her screen toward her. There she was—asleep on Noah’s shoulder, Lily in her arms. The picture had been uploaded to a business gossip site.
The headline read: “Noah Whitman spotted with mysterious woman and baby on commercial flight.”
But that wasn’t the worst part. It was the first pinned comment: “She’s Emily Harper Collins. She’s running away from her husband, Ryan Collins.”
Emily felt her legs go cold. “A stranger couldn’t possibly know that.”
