After all, Davina had saved the prison a significant amount of money and handled numerous issues caused by the inmates‘ health problems.

Caleb had only been out for a few days, and Davina knew exactly when he’d been released.

So, when she received a message, she instantly recognized who it was from.

Caleb then shared some of his plans with Davina, and they spoke for a while.

That was until someone interrupted their conversation.

As the man in fitted trousers approached, he brought with him an air of sharp authority that was hard to ignore

Caleb looked up, his smile a little too casual as he asked, “Someone you know!”

Davina lified her gaze too, “Not exactly”

Caleb gave a vague hum, ready to keep talking–until he lost his patience. “Excuse n

me, Sir,” he said, voice clipped. “We’re in the middle of a conversation. Do you always stand around like a streetlight?”

Blair’s voice was firm and direct. “Step aside. I need a word with her.”

Caleb stayed where he was, turning his eyes to Davina instead,

Davina could tell Blair wasn’t going to back down without saying what he came to say,
