Angela, after thinking things through, asserted, “I’ll handle any further contact from Joseph.”

The mere thought of reaching out to Joseph turned Angela’s stomach.

Jonathan, not one to argue, chimed in, “Mind if I tag along when you meet him?”

Though expecting Joseph to blow his top, Christopher was taken aback by its intensity. Stepping back, he explained, “Zacharias himself, with Mrs. Kins‘ approval.”
