章 28: 1.28 Line

Wanting to create a bigger wedge between Calista, Demtruis, and Persie, Evander inquired, "Why secretly?"

Persie answered while gazing at his bracelet, "The first year she worked, my birthday passed without anyone doing anything or wishing me a happy birthday. So, she figured my legal guardians didn't want anyone to celebrate it. She would do it secretly because she said that my birth deserved to be celebrated."

Calista looked down in shame when everyone's attention shifted to her. Luke held his hand and said, "I'm sorry."

Everyone was shocked to hear those words coming from Luke's mouth since he usually acted the same way as Cole and never apologized. Furthermore, he apologized for something he had nothing to do with.
