Evelyn’s heart pounded in her chest as the cab sped toward the office. She clasped her trembling hands together as if it would help her hold herself together.
The confrontation with Derek’s mother replayed in her mind, each scornful word ringing in her ears like a bell she couldn’t silence.
Her stomach knotted as she remembered the fury in his mother’s e
eyes, the venom in her words.
Why had she thought this was a good idea? The chill of doubt settled deep within her, mingling with the heat of regret.
Had she just made things worse! The question gnawed at her. Did she just complicate things further by throwing caution to the wind and acting so recklessly?
The last thing Evelyn wanted was to drive a wedge between Derek and his parents, and it seemed like she had done just that. She sighed deeply, trying to still the storm of emotions inside her

Quickly, she fished it out, her heart fluttering with a fleeting hope that maybe it was Derek calling to say that everything was fine and that he had resolved things with his mother. But her face fell when she saw Rayna’s name flashing on the screen.

Evelyn bit her lip. “I don’t know why I let you talk me into this, I shouldn’t have.”
Rayna cut her off concern lacing her tone. “Did something happen? What happened? Is he mad at you for keeping Samantha from him?”
Evelyn could picture Rayna on the other end of the line, probably pacing in that no–nonsense way she did when she was worried. Evelyn swallowed, closing her eyes as she relived the scene. “I didn’t get to that part before his mother showed up. She was furious. She called me a a good–for–nothing slut. She said she would never let someone like me be involved with her son. Rayna, I was scared I don’t think I’m ready for all of thi Evelyn’s voice faltered.
There was a long pause on the other end of the line, then Rayna’s voice hardened. “What did Derek do? Did he take your side, or did he just stand there and let his mom talk to you like that?” Rayna asked since Derek’s reaction was more important to her.
If Derek had stood there and watched his Mom say all of that without defending Evelyn, then as far as she was concerned. Evelyn would have no more business with him.
