deep dreamless sleep for ninety minutes.
When I woke up to the bright midday sunshine pouring through the cabin window I was completely embarrassed to realize how long I had been asleep on a stranger. Carson chuckled and assured me that my daughter and I desperately needed the rest. My amusement quickly vanished when a senior flight attendant approached our row to inform Carson that his private security detail was waiting at the arrival gate. He gently explained he was the founder and chief executive officer of Lindwood Enterprises and constantly dealt with invasive financial reporters. Before I could process this surprising revelation my mobile phone began buzzing incessantly with hostile text messages from my separated husband. Bradley demanded to know where I was taking our daughter and accused me of traveling with a wealthy stranger. I was terrified because there was no logical way he could have known my exact location. Carson noticed my sudden panic and firmly assured me we would handle the situation calmly upon landing. As we stepped off the aircraft his security team presented us with a high resolution photograph taken inside our cabin that had already been uploaded to internet gossip forums exposing my full legal name and location.
