Skyler Jones gazed deeply into Christine Quinn's eyes, "Thank you."
Christine Quinn shook her head, saying nothing.
Marie got down from Skyler Jones's lap and affectionately clung to her father, "Daddy, I wish you could be home every day. Can you not go back to New York?"
"Be good, the company has a project in New York that can't be handled without me."
Marie said disappointedly, "It'll be months before I see Daddy again."
Christine Quinn comforted her daughter, "Your daddy will finish the project soon, at most another two months..."
"Really?" Marie asked excitedly. That cuts down the waiting time by over a month!
Skyler Jones nodded slightly, "Yes."
"Oh yay..." Marie hugged Skyler Jones happily, bouncing up and down.
Once Marie returned to her room to do weekend homework, Christine Quinn went back to her room.
Skyler Jones was at the window making a phone call, the bright light shining on his tall figure made him look particularly upright.
