Clayton’s face brightened with hope. “So, you’re willing to help me, right?”

Kallie bit her lip. “If we’re merely putting on an act and later clarifying things, then I am on board. After all, you’re in this predicament partly because of me.”

Clayton’s smile grew brighter, visibly relieved. “You won’t have to worry about anything else. I’ve worked with Freya’s father before. We’re not close, but we know each other.

Clayton quickly reassured her, “After the banquet, I’ll make sure to find a chance to tell everyone we’ve broken up, so it won’t cause you any trouble.”

Kallie nodded. “Thank you. I’m a mother of three. I don’t want anything like this to affect them.”

Clayton nodded his understanding and asked, “Can I see Elma?”
