Calls To Brad’s Office Begin
From inside, Deborah’s voice carried as she dictated my name and the address to someone. She repeated Brad’s office line twice, asked for an urgent call back, and left two numbers.
I could hear the receptionist’s calm tone through the speaker and the click when the message ended.
Deborah set the phone down, glared toward the porch, and closed the door. I texted Brad that she had called and flagged it as urgent.
