"Who was that?" Victoria asked Joan when she noticed the frown on her face after she got off the phone.
Joan didn't respond to her question, instead, she dialed Steve's number, wanting to confirm what her mother had just told her.
"Joan, what is it? Why do you look so angry? Who was that on the phone?" Victoria asked again in concern.
Without looking up from her phone, Joan raised her hand to stop Victoria from talking, "Vikky, give me a minute I need to confirm something," she said as she continued to dial Steve's number but he was still not picking up.
"Why the fuck won't he pick my calls? What the heck is going on?" Joan asked in annoyance as she continued to dial Steve's number. After three failed attempts to reach Steve, Joan flung her phone on the couch.
"You are beginning to scare me. Can you just tell me what is going on?" Victoria asked her.
