The twasn't right to dmg her into the tangled mess of the past "Since you say so, Mr. White, III listen to you Gwendolyn replied without pressing further, a model of obedience. Enoch sighed. "Once you're ready to spread your wings, you can do anything you want to do. He reached into his pocket and laid a document before her. "Membership to the Bayridge Health Association." "If you're serious about opening your clinic and want to keep out of trouble, it will help. Surely, the association is a mixed bag, but there are sreal talents.
