Jerlina was avoiding her boss' phone calls since she knew why he calls. She had already spent the money he sent to her, to pay for Uncle Pat's medical bills and she cannot return the money to him.
And she cannot ask TJ to stop threatening her boss, because her relationship with him is not good. Well, it is worse, to be honest.
But she knew her boss cannot file a complaint against her since there is no proof that she extorted him for money. He sent the money of his own volition imagining that she is asking for money. He said it was her severance pay and she can spend it however she wants to.
"It's David Millman? Why is he calling you?" Jeremy asked. He hasn't received any report that Trevor Millman contacted the Shard Viper yet. So why is David bothering her? Is he trying to intimidate her?
Jerlina wondered if speaking the truth will change his mind. But she decided to give it a try since she didn't want him to go bankrupt without the supplies.
