“Thank you and that sure is a convenience. While I'd love to chat, I need to make a quick call to my insurance company. And since I also don’t have my phone I have to go dig up my work one. Also Cleo the police told me they plan on coming to talk to us tomorrow about the event. They’d been making statements since the fire but with the amount of people it took a while. I’ll let you use my work phone when I'm done to call for your replacement too.”324Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34f4mYtj5J

That reminded me I never told her what happened on the stairwell, “Thank you and I'll be ready for it,” I was soon lost in thought as she left thinking of the ways I could explain the situation.

I wish I would've heard what he’d said so I'd have a clue as to why he’d done that. Though it was stupid of him to pull his mask down i knew it was only a matter of time that the culprit was found.

“Well to a family it sort of is. To start on the day you were born you shocked both of us. When I had my ultrasound the doctor was sure you were a boy. And when you came out all beautiful must i say which was all me, you were… well you my love. Harry was in a fit about it because he wanted someone to take over his company,”

She paused, shaking her head but still continued, “I swear the most horrible opinions that he believed about came out during the pregnancy. But anyway a few months after we had another horrible fight and he wanted to walk out. I had a case at the time where one of the parents was giving up their parental rights as well so I rummaged for the spare document I had and made him sign it before he left.”

“Don’t ever apologize about that. I’m sorry that I wasn't wise enough to get rid of him then. He took away my pride and joy which was you Cleo.

She leapt off the couch presumably going to get her phone from upstairs and I sneakily let my hand travel under her shirt and up the back of her spine. She was still watching the stairs and only looking down to me after I kissed her neck, “Don’t even try persuading me with that. I am not getting caught by your mom to be thrown on her bad side. I’ve already seen the wrath she could commit.”
