Eerie silence. That bitch! She probably broke the news to Ava. What was he going to do, not like there was any thing he could say that would prove him guilty. “ Ava, I swear on my life I didn't mean to. It was that scoundrel who led me on..” His countenance was grave and he sounded weak. He was on the verge of loosing the only woman he loved. “ What are you talking about? I only called to ask how you could ignore my calls yesterday without a reasonable explanation for it.” Oh did she? He swallowed a lump of saliva and exhaled. For some reasons, he had been holding his breath. Had he spilled too much? He could take it back. “ Oh, that. I'm really sorry. I was really tired yesterday and I had to go to bed. I will make it up to you, okay?” “ Are you alright, Nate? For a moment, I thought I heard you say something about being led on.” “ No, no. You heard wrong, Aviva. I have to go now, I have a meeting with my client this morning.”
