Ethan pursed his lips.

He glanced back at the kitchen at Janet, then opened the glass door to step out onto the balcony. He was a little surprised to see that Patrick was calling him.

It was winter and the cold wind was unforgiving.

Ethan stood on the balcony, letting the wind blow his hair.

"Why on earth are you answering the phone outside? Isn’t it cold out there?"

Was it Charis calling again? 

"It’s Patrick Lester."

Amused by the quirky expression on her face, he pulled her into his arms and finally answered the phone.
