The announcement was posted less than an hour after Axel left the house.
Evelyn smiled faintly as she muttered, "You're planning something, aren't you, Axel? Why? Why do you hide something from me?"
Sigh!
She tried to distract herself by checking emails, but her gaze kept drifting back to the phone sitting quietly beside her coffee cup.
Ten minutes.
No reply.
Twenty minutes.
Still nothing.
She sighs deeply as she tosses her pen on the desk.
"Oh, come on, Axel... You literally run a billion-dollar company but can't answer one tiny message from your wife?"
As if on cue, her phone buzzed.
Evelyn's heart skipped.
She snatched it up, expecting a text, but was surprised when she saw the screen.
Incoming Call: Axel Knight.
Finally, she exhaled and slid her thumb across the screen.
"Axel…" Evelyn began, but his low, velvety voice interrupted her.
