His words brought tears to her eyes, she immediately sniffed it in and sank into Charlie's opened arms,
After he left her go, "Toby called me with Alex's phone, what really happened?" Charlie asked, worried that Caily's secret might have been blown open,
Caily inhaled intensely but breathed out quite steadily as if trying to calm herself down. Her chest grew even tighter with every second. She was stressed, it was easy to see it in her eyes and Charlie did,
"Let's take you home to rest. Alice is with the kids," He soothed,
"No! No! She has to leave. I don't want her anymore," Caily shrieked with a head shake,
Charlie sighed, "Caily, what happened is not her fault, it's mine. Blame me for it for as long as you want but please let Alice keep her job. She really needs it," For a moment, his utterance made Caily and Emily exchange confused stares, and they all stood there in silence a bit longer.
