Yolanda Greenwood heard her phone ring just as she was about to go to bed.
She folded back to the sofa and quickly saw the message, forgetting to breathe in an instant.
Because she knew that Cooper Coldson had sent it to the wrong person. The message was meant for Melissa Greenwood. They... were finally getting married.
Yolanda bit her lip, struggling to control her emotions, and finally, with trembling hands, typed four words.
"Congratulations to you both!"
Cooper saw her reply the next morning. He hadn't realized he'd sent the message to the wrong person, and the mistake was grotesque.
Thinking about what Noah Coldson and Melissa had talked about the day before, he redialed the number.
Yolanda was having breakfast. She answered the phone with some confusion, "Cooper? What's going on?"
Since she had left Gray City, they hadn't been in touch.
Cooper, hearing no change in her voice, opened heavily, "Last night's message, I sent it to the wrong person."
