Billionaire’s

“Sandra wants me to show up at the club!” Evelyn asked Rayns over the phone as she walked into her apartment, “Why?”

you to join us, but now the sent a text asking if I could

“I have no idea what she is thinking. When she called the first time, she said she didn’t want you to invite you but not tell you she would be there.” Rayna explained.

“I’m not sure I should go. What do you think?” Evelyn asked as she kicked off her shoes and headed for her bedroom.

She was exhausted from the round of house hunting she had been doing all day, and all she wanted was to freshen up and then confide in Maya about everything, as she had promised

Rayna sighed. “I don’t know, Evie. I know that as long as I’m there, I won’t let any harm come to you, but I’d be more comfortable if I knew what she was up to. Why don’t you talk to Derek? Tell him what’s up, and if he thinks you should go, then let’s do that,” Rayna suggested. Evelyn frowned as she sat on the edge of her bed.

“Alright. Let me do that. I’ll get back to you after I speak to him,” Evelyn said before hanging up the call.

After hanging up the call, she quickly typed a text, [If you’re not too busy, can you call me?

After she sent the text, she rose and undressed. Before she could make it to the bathroom, her phone rang. She picked it up and received the call when she saw that it was Derek.

“Is everything okay?” Derek asked, his voice tinged with concern Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“Yeah. I just need your opinion on something” Evelyn said and then proceeded to tell him about Sandra’s text to Kayna

Derek paused for a moment as he considered it, and then he sighed, “I think I might have to bug Michael’s office and his apartment if possible. I don’t think hacking his sim is enough.”

“Why?” Evelyn asked, wondering what that had to do with what she had told him.

“She met with Michael in his office after we had lunch. I have a feeling that she came up with the idea of inviting you to the club after her meeting with Michael. I need to know what they talk about in person and not just over the phone,” Derek explained, and Evelyn nodded.

“Yeals. That makes sense. But for now, what do you think I should do! Should I go? I mean, I don’t have to go, right? I can easily tell Rayna to tell her that 1 declined her invitation and suggested we hang out some other place and not at that club, right” Evelyn asked, and Derek considered it for a

moment

“Yes. Do that, Ask Rayna to do that, and let’s see what Sandra will say. That way, we will know if the just wants to see you and do something to embarrass you or if her plan is restricted to the club, Derek suggested

“Alright. I’ll call you back after I’ve done that I’m sorry to bother.

“you’re not bothering me. You could never bother me. And just so you know, I want you to bother me,” he said, and she giggled

“I’ll call you after I hear from her, Evelyn said before hanging up.

She had a smile on her face as she called Rayna and then relayed the information to her. After the phone call with Rayna, she went in to freshen up while she waited to hear back from Rayna.

Away from there, after the phone call with Evelyn, Rayna dialed Sandra’s line, and it didn’t take long before Sandra received the call.

Hey, Ray!)

! Did you receive my text?“! Sandra asked, and Rayna rolled her

“I did. That’s why I’m calling. I just got off the phone with Evelyn, and she doesn’t want to incet at Club Edge. She’s suggesting we meet elsewhere. Rayna said, and Sandra scowled.

“Can’t you convince her to change her mind?” Sandra asked, wondering why Evelyn was being unnecessarily stubborn

“Do we have to meet at the club? I mean, it’s not like we are there to party. I don’t think that is exactly an ideal venue to talk. We can..”

Michael will be there too, I want to do my best to reconcile them. Michael is still crazy about Evelyn. I’m hoping that I can help them reconcile, and then Evelyn will leave Derek lace, and things can go back to how they used to be. I need your help to make that happen. Sandra sail, and Kayna’s brows pulled together.

*So, Michael will be joining us?” She asked,

wondering juni

what Sandra wasi

was up to.

Yes. How you can’t tell Evelyn that he will be there. I’m not telling Michael about it, either. I’m going to get a room, and we will lock than

they can talk things out. What do you think?” Sandra asked, and Rayna laughed softly, amused by Sandra’s crazy plan

If she didn’t know about the state of things between Evelyn and Sandra, and she didn’t know about what had truly happened between Evelyn and Michael, she would most likely have fallen for Sandra’s bullshit..

“I think it’s a brilliant plan. And I’m surprised you care about Evelyn so much, and you’re still going through all this stress for her sake, despite all she has done,” Rayna said, and Sandra sighed.

“She’s my sister. And I love her regardless of her flaws. What else can I do?” Sandra asked, and Rayna resisted the urge to snort.

“I will try to convince Evelyn once again so we meet at Club Edge,” Rayna promised,

“Thanks, Ray, I wonder what I will do without you, Sandra said before hanging up

Done with the call, Rayna called Evelyn back, “You won’t believe what that snake plans to do,” Rayna said the moment the call connected.

“What is she up to?” Evelyn asked, feeling anxious.

“She

wants to lock yo

ock you up in a room with Michael so that you both can resolve things,” Rayna said, and Evelyn frowned.

“That doesn’t make sense. She knows very well that I won’t resolve things with Michael since I know they are sexually involved,” Evelyn said, Rayna pursed her lips as she narrowed her eyes thoughtfully.

“You have a point. So, what do you think she is up to then?” Rayna asked, and Evelyn sighed deeply.

“Perhaps they plan to set me up. I think it’s more than just being alone with Michael,” Evelyn said, and Rayna sighed.

“She said Michael doesn’t know you’re coming. Rayna said, but Evelyn shook her head.

and

“You should know that we can’t believe anything she says. Sandra is a liar. They probably planned this together. You know what? I’m going to come. I want to see what they are up to. Tell her I agreed to join you,” Evelyn said, and Rayna raised a brow.

“Are you

you sure you should do that” Rayna asked, feeling uncomfortable with the idea.

“Yeah. If I don’t agree, she will feel you’re not useful to her, and she might not want to involve you or share her plans with you next time. I will let Derek know that I will do it. That way, we will find a way to counter whatever plan they have. Evelyn said with a note of finality in her tone, and Rayna nodded.

“Alright then. Let’s do that. I’ll let her know you’re coming. See you tonight,” Rayna said before hanging up.
