Arabella barely acknowledged Melissa and Timothy, who were still in the living room, before she eagerly pulled out her cell phone to call Paul.

She had to dial several times before Paul finally answered. His voice was filled with a cold indifference. “What is it?”

“Alright.” Vivienne was intrigued.
