Caleb sat up straight.

“And?”

I pursed my lips, and a thoughtful look came into my expression.

I will be there in a while.” Cassy looked at me after I casually put the phone back in my pocket. “You have to go.” She told me. My heart constricted when I detected a hint of longing from her voice. It made me want to stay. I watched when Cassy stood from the couch and walked nonchalantly to her desk. She folded her legs and propped one knee on the seat of her swivel chair before carefully scanning the documents on her table, perusing them. Reluctantly, I pulled my gaze back to look at my watch. “Yeah. I have to go. I have a meeting in a while. It will be done by lunch.” “So?” She inquired, still not looking at me. I smiled.

    Cassy POVDuring the party, I could feel that something was bothering Caleb. It's not that I was suspecting him of anything. It was more like I was just puzzled at the antsy behavior. From time to time, he would leave me to talk on the phone, and my lips formed a straight line in displeasure. I am sure it was business, but can’t he postpone business for a while to enjoy the children’s party?“You look lonely, babe. Where is your husband?” Reynold approached me when he noticed I was standing alone in the corner, watching the event while my husband was out of sight.
