Chapter 127 : Becca's Confession

Becca.

For days, I lived in a house with hushed whispers and stolen conversations. Neal had been acting beyond odd lately, and even Allegra, who tried to smile and play off Neal’s behavior, was being odd. I wasn’t sure what it was about the situation that set me off entirely, but I knew for sure it had something to do with the phone calls Neal kept getting.

“Hey, so I was thinking that maybe we could take the kids down to the beach today,” echoed into my ear, and as I turned my gaze from where I had been watching Neal, I smiled at her.

“Yeah, that sounds great. Why don't you go ahead and get little man situated, and then I will find out from Allegra and Neal if they want to join us?”

Nodding her head, the nanny quickly disappeared from sight, and as I sat there, turning my gaze back to where Neal was standing, I continued to contemplate what it was that was bothering him so much.
