Chapter 27

"Caleb, why have you been avoiding my calls?" Evelyn had set her eyes on him for the first time in a very long time, and this was the question she had to ask. Life had been extremely difficult for her, and she did not want to make things worse between her and her son. Business had also not been fruitful enough, causing her sleepless nights. She had been battling with insomnia for a very long time.

"I don't owe you any explanations," he said abruptly, remembering that she had caused the sourness of his relationship with Lizzy, or friendship. 

"You did not give me feedback. You did not do it like we planned," she said. She pleaded with him to meet her for a conversation, and after so many pleas and convictions, he decided to do it. He came, even though he did not want to do anything like meeting with her.
