Jayden blinked, caught between two voices.
One sweet and sultry from the kitchen doorway.
The other sharp and curious through the phone.
"Babe?" Temi's voice sliced through the air with a cautious warmth, her brows slightly furrowed, towel in one hand, as she gave a sharp stare. "Who are you talking to?"
Jayden was completely lost for words at that moment, stunned.
Shit! Camillia is still on the call!
He didn't know whether to end the call or not, but he knew Camillia would surely suspect something if he did.
"Jayden? What's going on?" Camillia asked, her tone changing.
> [Tell her it's your friend and find a way to lie around it later. Temi is not the problem. Camillia is.]
The system suddenly brought a tip, brightening Jayden's face at once.
"Nothing... Nothing, actually. It's just my friend. She needs my help with something real quick. I'll chat you up later. I promise," Jayden said as he quickly ended the call.
And just as he hung up, Temi moved closer.
