CHAPTER 19
Tylo was aware enough of the kiss, if he hadn't broke it off, it would have end up with much, much, more. She knew now that she could get to him, but that's not how she wanted it to happen. She wanted him on his terms not hers.
Frank's cell phone was ringing off the hook when he got back to the house.
"Donovan." He answered.
"We have a problem, Matthews and four other inmates broke out about an hour ago. You need to get back to Texas ASAP and hook up with the US Marshals."
Frank really didn't need this right now, "Why can't the Marshals handle it?"
"Because it has your name written all over it. Call me when you get the team there."
Frank hung up the phone and contacted his team, within an hour they were assembled and on their way.
The manhunt had taken a toll on everyone but they had four out of five. Matthews was the only one not captured as of Saturday night. Frank had made arrangements with Mabel to pick Tylo up besides it would give her an excuse to see her sister.
It had happened all too fast in the warehouse where they had Matthews cornered. In the end he was recaptured but at the expense of Frank taking two bullets in the thigh. The team contacted Mabel to change her destination to Dallas instead of Chicago.
Tylo went to work on Monday, she didn't see any sign of Frank since Wednesday, but then again he was going back to Washington to get Veronica. Maybe he decided to leave early. She thought for sure, she would see Frank taking Veronica to school that morning.
Gary knocked on the door and broke her thoughts of Frank. "Hey, I came into remind you about Thursday."
"Do I really have to attend?" Tylo asked.
"Yes, as a partner in this firm, you need to show your support. Besides you're my date."
"Why can't you attend with your wife?"
"You know that answer."
"Why do I even bother to debate this with you?"
"Because you love me."
"That's an understatement."
Frank finally was released from the hospital Thursday afternoon; they were all scheduled to be in Chicago about nine that night. Frank had recovered enough to use crutches and would rest at home for a couple of weeks.
The dinner was as boring as they come, but Tylo put up with it because of Gary. At least, this was one event that Bradley was not attending. They pulled in the driveway around ten, just after a van pulled in Frank's driveway.
Veronica saw Tylo and said, "Dad there's Tylo can I say hi."
"NO, it's late, you can see her another time. Mabel make sure she doesn't dart away.
Veronica do you understand?"
"Yes, dad."
Everyone emptied out of the van to leave Frank to get out last. Tylo was exiting the car and Gary was walking around to her side when Cody saw her.
"Wow, I thought you said your neighbor was nerdy?" Cody said.
They all turned around to see Tylo in the aura of the streetlight, she had her hair completely down, and a short black dress with a diamond necklace. She also was wearing stunning black heels. When they turned and looked at Frank he had a scowl on his face.
"Can someone please help me here?" He asked.
Tylo looked over to see Frank being helped out of the van and then handed crutches. She wondered what happened to him, but there were too many people around to just walk up and ask. She also saw Veronica being held really close by Mabel. Her eyes met Frank's for a brief moment, it was apparent then that he did not want Veronica running over to Tylo. That was the only thing she was sure of, for he didn't give anything away.
