"Hello?" Avery Jane picked up the phone, wondering when Joshua Hughes would finish his shower. He should call back later; the constant ringing was quite annoying.
"Where's Joshua? Who are you?" At the instant the call connected, Evelyn Yates felt a wave of joy, but upon hearing the clear, youthful, and sweet female voice, she felt as if struck by lightning. The voice was so familiar—yes, it was Avery Jane's voice. She hadn't seen Avery in months. Didn't she leave secretly? Why was she back? Could it be she only pretended to leave to better hide her relationship with Joshua Hughes?
"Avery Jane, it's you, isn't it? You shameless woman, why do you keep clinging to Joshua..." The voice on the other end was crying and choking, loud and clear. Hearing Avery Jane's voice nearly drove Evelyn Yates insane; she was enduring her pregnancy alone while Avery was with Joshua Hughes.
