Samantha counted the hours and discovered that it was more or less 24 hours.
Another one of Ronald's remarks had hit the nail on the head.
Samantha bit her lower lip but felt no pain even though there were already tooth marks on her lips.
The man's low voice rang in her ears. "Sammy?"
Timothy seemed to have called her name softly because she had not responded.
Samantha returned to her senses and took a deep breath to calm her chaotic thoughts. She spoke as naturally as possible, "Ah... I was just about to ask whether you're coming back tonight."
"Yes," Timothy answered without hesitation. "I'll be home in about ten minutes."
His answer came as a surprise to Samantha.
If Timothy did do something behind her back, then it would be logical for him to feel somewhat guilty and subconsciously hide it.
However, he came home right away as if nothing had happened.
