Episode 551: Innocent One

Sarette slammed her purse down on the table as she slid onto the bench seat opposite Calvin. "You can’t call and text me so much. What if my husband had picked up the phone, or my son, or the help?"

"The help," Cal sneered, "shouldn’t be a worry to you. At this point, how can you question their loyalty? One of them helped you rob me of my daughter."

Sarette looked stricken and damn it to hell if he didn’t want to apologize when he didn’t owe her one. She had robbed him of his daughter, and now he was stuck playing catch up with Ava, trying to look after her the way a father should, afraid he was too late. "Don’t you care about her?"

"Of course I do."

"Then answer your damn phone the first time I call, not the twentieth."

"I hadn’t realized you were calling about Avalon." Sarette’s eyes were apologetic, and beautiful, then distant. "I thought it was about us."

It could easily have been, despite everything, Cal still craved her company. He hated how she’d kept herself scarce from him lately. He missed her. He had always missed her. Always thought his successes would have been so much sweeter with her by his side. But those things hadn’t crossed his mind for this meeting. "I’m concerned about Ava."

"She doesn’t want our concern," Sarette warned him. He knew it was the truth, Ava hadn’t minced any words with him. Still, he couldn’t let it go. Didn’t think he should.

He told her about their daughter’s business venture with her boyfriend. "Something about this isn’t sitting right with me. I like the kid, I do, but I don’t necessarily trust him."

"Anyone with eyes can see Sebastian loves her."

"I know. But you loved me and that didn’t stop you from ripping my heart out."
