Lydia didn’t bother hiding it anymore. She smiled just a little. “Yeah.”
Juna groaned. “Seriously, Lydia? If you already knew who it was, why didn’t you just say so? I spent forever negotiating with them.”
“There was a reason.”
“Fine, whatever. As long as you’ve got it under control.”
Lydia asked, “Hey, does your Davis family have anything to do with Anthony Davis?”
Juna caught herself. “Wait, my uncle? You know my uncle?”
“We met today. Why have you never mentioned him before?”
“Oh, my uncle’s barely ever home. He only got transferred back last year, and his job’s kind of special. He keeps a really low profile, so we just don’t talk about him much. Oh, speaking of, I just found out today that my cousin had some drama at the airport on her first day back. She’s still in the hospital. You weren’t there or anything, right?”
Lydia got it now. “Is your cousin named Violette?”
Juna gasped. “Yes! Wait, Lyds, don’t tell me you were the one who saved her?” Juna had just heard from her parents that Violette had been taken hostage at the airport, badly hurt, and only survived because two top doctors stepped in.
“I wasn’t the only one there.”
“Oh wow, what are the odds? My parents were just saying they’re going to visit her in the hospital tomorrow.”
“That’s all, I was just curious.”
“Alright, you’ve had a long day. Get some rest.”
“You too.”
