章節 397: Tell Him

"Mom says to pass the phone to you," Jamal informed Tom after he was done speaking with his mother.

Tom received the phone from Jamal, "Hello, This is Tom," He said politely, since it was the first time he was speaking with Candace since he read her letter. 

Candace cleared her throat, "Thanks for looking after Jamal. He says he's happy, and you are both having dinner with him," Candace said with gratitude.

"You're welcome," Tom said as he looked at the kid who was sitting beside him and looking at him curiously.

She cleared her throat again, "I also want to apologize for making you uncomfortable by leaving that letter behind. I had no right to do that. If it makes you feel better you can get rid of it. I wasn't thinking straight. I'm sorry," Candace said apologetically, and Tom sighed.
