Chapter 97 EVELYN I walked away from Danes room as the phone rang .

Then there was a click , as if someone picked up .

I heard my mothers voice say , Evie ! as if in a panic .

Then there was a loud crash in my ear .

Then the line went dead .

Mom ! No answer .

Either she had smashed her own phone … or someone had taken it from her and broken it .

In denial , I pulled my phone from my ear and tried to call again .

A robotic voice said , The customer you have dialed is out of service .

Please hang up and try again .

I tried again , but the same thing happened .

Again , same thing .

I made sound of frustration , jammed my phone into my pocket , and let a harsh breath out through my teeth .
