Xaviera Evans choked back a sob, the spiciness in her mouth still spreading, her eyes welling up with tears as she voiced her grievance: "I was just about to leave when Mr. Drew told me he needed to speak to me regarding a matter concerning Mr. Drew, but why would he need to tell me about this? Why doesn't he seek out Caleb Mamet instead?"
