Eva comforted Dominic and then called Mia.
The line got through immediately.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Hello, Eva. What's up?” “No biggie. I'm just checking in on you. How are things going on over at Xanier Island? Are you adapting well? | heard that the airport is closed because of the heavy pour.” “Yup. The rain is different from the usual one. We'll need to extend our stay for several days. We'll return when the rain stops, and it's safe to fly.” Mia had a nagging feeling that there was something unusual about Eva’s sudden call. She couldn't help but wonder if Eva had somehow learned that Caleb was on Xanier Island.
All these years, her family had avoided mentioning her ex-husband to spare her feelings.
She had assumed Eva's call was to urge her to return hpromptly, but as it turned out, it was just a casual conversation.
After Mia ended the call, a suspicion formed in her mind-perhaps Wade had reported something to her family.
Thankfully, the airport on Xanier Island was closed due to the bad weather. Even if her brothers wanted to come, they couldn't.
Meanwhile, she should straighten things out with her ex-husband in the meantime.

“Look, Caleb, it's been years since our divorce, which means everything is in the past. Ginger’s been asking about having a father figure around, so | was hoping you could spend these next few days with her.
“We'll leave as soon as the airport reopens, and | wouldn't expect any further involvement after that.” Mia was clear and concise.
Caleb protested his innocence, “Ms. Monalize, with all due respect, | wouldn't dream of denying something I did.
But seriously, you've mistakenfor someone else entirely. I'm not even close to being your ex-husband!” Her brows furrowed. “Admitting it or not is irrelevant. Anger Ginger, and don’t expect any kindness from me.” “Oh, for crying out loud! You seriously got the wrong person. | am not your ex-husband!” Her gaze turned cold. “As | said, admitting it or not is irrelevant.” Caleb had had enough. “Ms. Monalize, did Timothy not tell you how much you look like his ex-wife?”
