Chantelle fired back a few playful remarks before ending the call.
Daniel walked in with Philip just as she hung up.
"Morning, Chantie," Philip said, waving from the door.
She gave him a nod and a small smile.
Daniel noticed she barely looked at him and gave Philip a sly, teasing grin. Philip's face instantly twisted in discomfort.
"Let's go down for breakfast," Daniel said, reaching for her hand.
She swiftly avoided him and walked toward Philip instead. "Thea just called. I think she was playing a game with someone…"
Philip looked at her like she'd said something crazy. Clearly, Thea hadn't mentioned that part.
"She what? She said she'd wait for me! Now she's gaming with someone else?" His voice grew more upset with every word.
Chantelle couldn't help but laugh. She gave Philip a pat on the shoulder. "She's even been cooking for them. And they're sticking around after eating her food."
