Changing her number hadn't helped. Blocking calls was pointless, too. If someone really wanted to reach her, they'd always find a way.

A chill flickered in her eyes. "Tell him to leave my grandmother out of this. I'll stop by before noon."

Keith finally relented. "Understood. I'll pass that along."
