  “Liam?” My eyes glinted in happiness after hearing from him. “How are you?”

  “I am fine. What about you?”

  “I am fine as well.” I ruffled Everley’s hair and made my way towards the hallway to talk with Liam. He was my neighbor when we were kids. We were pretty close friends. Then we parted ways when his parents took him somewhere else because of their posting. “How is your life going? Are you in Toronto? If yes, let’s meet, shall we?”

  “Geez, woman. Calm down,” he spoke up. “Being an inspector is enjoyable honestly and recently, I have got an interesting case. And I am in Toronto to handle the drug dealing case. So we can meet.”

  “How did you get my number?” I asked him.

  Liam replied to me, “I called your mother at first. Then she told me you were in Toronto now with your husband and she gave me your number as well. I didn’t know you would get married so soon. Also, I wasn't invited.”
