Episode 633: Do You Love Me?It was a business call, still Phillip couldn’t be too angry with his youngest daughter for grabbing the phone from him and slamming it down. It wasn’t business he ordinarily would have entertained. He didn’t consider Bill Shaw a sound investment. He’d stayed on with the idiot because he’d rather endure a tedious phone call than deal with yet another of his rattled offspring.Phillip didn’t know how he’d ended up with overly sensitive children. He was made of strong stuff; they should be, too. Adria was the worst one to witness in that condition. Even if she was a grown woman, she would always be his baby. His strong stuff never felt quite as strong when it came to her. "What’s wrong?" Phillip asked with a sigh. His youngest daughter’s hand remained fixed on the telephone. Her entire arm trembled. She seemed more shocked by her actions than he was. Phillip patted her hand. "It’s fine. You did me a favor hanging up on that blowhard. Now tell me what’s wrong." Adria took a breath. "I love you, Daddy." "There’s nothing wrong with that." He smiled and squeezed her fingers. Phillip stood and pulled Adria into his arms. "I love you, too, sweetheart." What a relief. For once one of his kids felt guilty, rather than heap a guilt trip on him. It pleased him to assure his girl that the guilt wasn’t necessary now that she was in the midst of turning her life around. "I love you. I’m your father. Any hardships you’ve put me through-" "You’re the one putting me through hardship." "What?" "I want you to be proud of me, but I wasn’t built for business. It’s not me. I’m an actress." Episode 634: Here For The Party
