Chapter 227

• Persis looked at Lisa, the thought weighing on her. If Lisa had overheard their conversation, then she would’ve known that Tedmond was the one Persis had called—but it didn’t seem like she did.
• Lisa asked if Persis had called Neil. It felt more like she had asked intentionally, to find out who Persis would say she called.
• Since Persis remained silent, Lisa looked at her, eyes dark with anger. Persis hadn’t said a word after the question—just stared at Lisa with a slight frown, like she couldn’t even be bothered to respond.
