Chapter 765

• Every week I tried to call Jules before I called Mary. I was still blocked on her phone and I had no reason to believe that it would change, but I still tried. I dialed Mary’s number since I had some time before I had to be at that meeting.
• “Hello Alex,” Mary answered and I could hear the smile in her voice.
• “Hi Mary, how are you?” I asked her. Our conversations always went the same way but I would continue to do the right thing.
