Ellie sneaked into the bedroom hastily and called Anya. The young woman was in the middle of her meal. Anya picked her call immediately. “Anya, are you done with dinner?”
She was in the middle of her dinner with Jamie. Of course, she was not. She had not realized that Evan had left the restaurant. The young woman sounded completely at ease when she replied. “Nope. I might take another half an hour.”
Half an hour? That long?
Ellie was at a momentary loss. Anya had gone for dinner with the lawyer because she needed to get started on her lawsuit on her mother’s inheritance. Ellie should not be interrupting her dinner at all. But Evan was in their apartment right now. She was worried that she would not be able to handle the man alone.
Ellie started pacing while clutching the phone to her ear tightly. She was struggling to put her words together.
Anya frowned slightly when she noticed the long bout of silence on the other end of the line. “What’s wrong, Ellie? Why are you so quiet?”
“Anya……..” After a moment of hesitation, Ellie finally decided to tell Anya the truth. She was sick with worry. Evan might be here to take Eudora and Nathaniel away. She steeled herself before finally blurting out. “Anya, Evan’s in our apartment.”

Panic surged through the young woman like a tsunami. She seemed to have forgotten all about Jamie who was seated right across the table. Her mind was somewhere else. Anya bit her lips anxiously. “Is he really in our apartment?”
