Carl smiled. “It’s nothing much. I just called to congratulate you. You’re finally free of all the nasty rumors!”

“Thank you.” A smile formed on Sonia’s face as well. Yeah, my name is finally cleared. I feel so much more relaxed now. “It’s all thanks to Tim,” Sonia continued. “This issue wouldn’t have been resolved so quickly if Tim hadn’t left those two videos behind.”

Ding dong! The doorbell rang out of nowhere, and Sonia leaped to her feet. “All right, Carl. I’ll talk to you later. Someone’s here.”
