Holding up her phone, she added, “I was just about to book a cab.”
“That won't be necessary.” A breath of relief escaped Ernest. “Glad | made it in time. If you'd ended up in a cab

Elissa found herself caught off guard. It almost sounded like they were in a close, loving relationship.
To the others in the room—especially Becker, though—it looked exactly like that. Louisa leaned toward her
daughter, shooting her a quick glance before whispering, “See what | mean? Quit doubting. Elissa really struck

Although the comment was directed at Bonnie, the envy in Louisa’s voice slipped through.
“Humph.” Bonnie let out a faint scoff. “Don’t jump to conclusions just yet.” Louisa blinked in surprise. “He
