202-Everybody Moved On

Beatrice's POV:

"Ah!" Pamela let out a sigh of relief when checking her phone. "She had left me a message," she informed.

"What did she say?" I asked Pamela, who didn't show me the message but looked extremely pleased about something. I knew there were some things they wouldn’t share with me, and since I was too new, I didn’t force them or try to make them uncomfortable by eavesdropping on their conversations.

"She indeed went back to her home to get something.’ Pamela forced a smile on her lips and immediately broke eye contact with him. I knew at that moment that she didn't want to share it with me.
