Echoes of Unrequited Love
Chapter 34
Chapter 34
Thinking about the hard–earned five hundred thousand that finally hit our account, both of us fell into silence.
Wallis figured we had to start with Cecilia.
“Even King couldn’t dodge the pillow talk, right?” she exemplified. “One word from Cecilia is worth a thousand from us.”
Hearing that, I looked down, feeling kinda crappy inside.
This mess happened right under my nose; no one’s better suited to make this call than me.
Thinking about the project’s future, I dialed Cecilia’s number.
But no answer.
Wallis looked puzzled. “Probably didn’t see it. We’ll try again later.*
Spot on she was.
Come evening, Cecilia finally rang back. “Sorry, Xaviera. I was up the mountain with Hogan and left my phone at the hotel. What’s up?”
Turns out, while we were anxious as hell, those two were leisurely enjoying the snow.
I steadied myself and said, “Director Irwin, Candy and I have deeply reflected on yesterday’s incident. Could you forgive us this time?”
“Really?” Cecilia’s voice floated back, airy. “But from what I see on Facebook, Candy seems to be having a blast.”
Candy hadn’t shown up for work today either. What she was up to, I hadn’t paid much mind.
I sincerely said, “I’ll have her personally apologize to you, Director Irwin. And with Mr. Zade, I’d appreciate your help.”
