When Jessie was ready to depart, she grabbed her phone and dialled Taylor's number. Taylor had told her that after she finished her task, she would meet Jessie at Marco's place.
Jessie drove to Marco's apartment after picking up Taylor's car keys.
She exited the vehicle and locked the door behind her. She took a few steps to the front of the house and stood there for a moment, looking around. She let out a sigh. She'd been missing her home for the previous few weeks.
She approached the door and took the spare key from the mailbox's top. When Marco was gone or if he returned home and she wasn't there, he'd always find the key there.
They were the only ones who knew.
Jessie blew the dust off the key and slid it into the door, which she flung open.
She walked into a white envelope as soon as she entered. She'd glimpsed something beneath her foot and had taken a step back. She had kneeled to pick it up.
That's strange! She hadn't expected to receive a letter from anyone. When there is a mobile phone, who still sends a letter in an envelope?
She had initially assumed it was Marco's, so she tossed it on the table and walked inside to her room, closing the door behind her.
When we opened her closet, she was taken aback by what she saw. Marco's clothing was in there, not hers. Her gaze had wandered and landed on her suitcases, which were positioned at the corner of the bed.
Jessie approached it on foot. She groaned as she lifted the bag to the bed and flipped it open. Her belongings were kept inside. They must have been parked for her by Marco.
Before leaving the room, Jessie closed her bags and lifted them. Marco had made her life simple. She didn't have to fuss with getting her dresses and rushed out before he returned.
She heard Taylor's voice on her way to the living room.
"That is something I will assist you with. Is there anything else you need to get?" Taylor had inquired as she helped Jessie with her belongings.
She smiled and nodded. "It remains a small bag. I'll be out in a few minutes." She returned to her room to retrieve the bag in which her shoes were stored.
Taylor assisted Jessie with her bag to the car and returned to assist with the rest.
She grabbed up the white envelope as soon as she saw it. As Jessie approached her, she wondered aloud, "Who still sends envelopes when there is a cell phone?"
"It's possible that it's Marco's. Let's get moving before he arrives." Jessie said as she approached the open door.
"Hold on a second," Taylor said.
"Taylor, what exactly is it? We must depart. Now!"
Taylor shifted her gaze to Jessie. "It's from Din Cooper," she said. She handed Jessie the letter.
"What?" Jessie's face was flushed with surprise. "How is it possible?" She wondered.
"I'm not sure." Taylor cocked her head.
Jessie snatched the envelope from her friend's grip and opened it. She took the letter from the envelope. "How did he discover where I live? Taylor, I thought you said he was gone."
"I'm not sure how he discovered where you live, but please read the letter. It could have critical information inscribed on it." Jessie opened the letter and began reading it after Taylor insisted. Jessie immediately yelled. "Are you okay?" Taylor asked.
She returned her attention to the letter. "Taylor, I'm doomed. I'm doomed."
"What could have been written there to cause you to utter those hurtful words?"
"Take a look for yourself," she said, handing Taylor the letter to read. Taylor let out a gasp and looked across at her pal. She laughed nervously. "At the very least, something nice came out of our trip to Vegas."
"How could you say that right now?"Jessie was the one who inquired. "Taylor, I'm married. The letter has my signature scrawled on it. This confirms that I'm Din Cooper's wife. I'm his wife!" she yelled.
"It can't be that horrible, can it? Relax, Jessie; we'll call him and have a pleasant talk with him."
"I'm going to file for a divorce. Immediately." She took her phone from her pocket.
Taylor inquired, "What are you doing?"
"I'm going to call my lawyer."
"Stop it, Jess," Taylor said. She took the phone from her. "You do not have legal representation."
"I've got your brother. He is my legal counsel." She sighed and rolled her eyes.
"Let's put Liam aside for a moment. Simply phone Din and request a meeting."
Jessie let out a sigh. "The letter does not include his phone number. How will I call to talk to him?"
Taylor re-addressed the envelope for her. "His phone number is scribbled on this layer. Now is the time to call him."
Jessie hesitated, but she couldn't resist Taylor's stare. What could possibly go wrong if she dialled the number? She only needed to ask for a divorce and she was confident he would accept it. He'd told her he was in love with a lady the day they drank at the club together, and she wasn't in love with him, so it would be simple for them to part, and he could return to his life while she did the same.
Din's phone number was entered into her phone, and she dialled it. The third ring was when Din picked up. "You've reached Din Cooper; what may I help you with?" Din stated over the phone.
When Jessie heard a familiar voice approaching them, she couldn't speak. Taylor's eyes were also wide with surprise as she looked at her. Jessie whispered, "Take cover."
Jessie closed the door and switched off the light as Taylor dashed to the nearest bathroom.
She walked into the bathroom to hide with Taylor.
They'd carefully opened the door and peered out through it. Until Marco turned on the light, they couldn't see the darkness. Marco arrived home early, which was unusual.
