Tricia pressed her lips together and glanced toward the bathroom before picking up her phone.

It was a message from Charlotte.

She looked up and managed a small smile. “Evander, could you drive Hans and me home later?”

Evander glanced at his own phone, scanning the screen. Tricia watched him closely.

Tricia’s face paled, her hand tightening into a fist beneath the table.
