After being dry-cleaned, Summer Thorne placed the utterly ordinary pair of slippers back in the shoe cabinet.
To everyone's surprise, however, the slippers she had lost and found again went unused for many days to come.
In the following days, Summer Thorne stationed herself at the freight company, rotating through every position, getting her hands dirty, and learning everything from the ground up.
She left early and came home late every day. By the time she got home, she was always too exhausted to even stand up straight and could only collapse into bed.
Meanwhile, Timothy York must have been busy as well, as he didn't show up for several days, allowing Summer to get some peaceful sleep.
A week later, on the weekend, Summer organized a company dinner.
To accommodate the drivers' highly unpredictable schedules, Summer didn't choose a restaurant or formal dining hall. Instead, she had long tables set up for a running feast in an open area of the freight yard.
