Chapter 72 - 72: The Phone Call

Ken insisted to have a dinner together, and Evan couldn\'t say no since Ken doesn\'t have a family to dine with aside from him and Glen.

Evan roamed his eyes around the rooftop, there\'s no other customer aside from Glen and his son Danny.

They walked towards them while the men guarding them stayed next to the elevator.

Seeing the boy, Evan plastered a smile, his hand stretched to tap the boy\'s little shoulder.

"How are you, Danny?" Evan asked in a lively tone. The boy\'s round face reminded him of Daniella, though most of his features came from his father Glen.

The boy smiled at him, his round eyes twinkled as he got up and hugged his leg.

Evan chuckled and watched as the little boy ran towards Ken and embraced his legs.

Ken chuckled in delight, he might be ruthless but, when it comes to Danny, he always plasters a smile and becomes soft in front of him.

"How are you little Glen?" Ken asked, carried the boy and let him sat on his lap.

"I am ok uncle Ken." The boy responded.

"Good!" he paused to nod, "be healthy because once you grow up, I am going to give you all my money," Ken let out a light chuckle and the little boy lowered his face in embarrassment.

"Are you not going to give it to your kid?"

Ken\'s face immediately darkened, but it was just a second, then he shook his head as the calmness registered on his face, "No," he replied and asked him to go back to his chair.

Danny ran back obediently to his chair, soon, the waiters came and served their food.

"Ken do you know the owner of this hotel?" Glen asked suddenly, his hand holding the cutlery froze as he turned to his friend Ken.

"Yeah, why?"

Glen shrugged, "I want a copy of their CCTV in the lobby."

Ken and Evan looked at each other with shock, Glen was the angel amongst them, they were still puzzled how could he stay with them after all the dirty things they had done.

"I will ask later," Ken replied eventually, still struck from Glen\'s request.

"Daddy, are you going to look after that pretty miss?"

Glen glared at his son discreetly, it was indeed his reason but, he was not planning to let his friends know.

He knew them, both of them very well.

If they saw her, for sure his friend wouldn\'t think twice about making her their woman.

"No, Danny, I lost my ID so I want to know if someone found it."

The little boy nodded, swirled the pasta around his fork and shove it in his mouth.

And with a full mouth, he spoke, "too bad, she\'s really pretty," he swallowed his food and continued, "Daddy can she be my mommy?"

Ken and Evan laughed at the same time, knowing Glen and how timid he is when it comes to women, they are sure that he will grow old without a wife.

Glen faked a laugh, "I don\'t even know her name," there was a disappointment stained in his voice.

"I know her house. Maybe we can visit her on Sunday."

To shut up his son, Glen nodded and asked him to continue with his food.

After they finished the main dish, Danny started with his dessert while his father and uncles drunk the wine that was served.

"Evan, what about the woman you told me about, what was her name?" Ken suddenly asked.

"Why?" Evan suspiciously asked back.

Ken clicked his tongue, nose wrinkled in annoyance as he watched the suspicion sparkled in Evan\'s eyes, what he hates the most was to explain himself.

"Never mind!" he blurted and drunk the whole glass in one gulp.

After Ken mentioned Daniella, Evan suddenly thought of calling her.

He took his phone out while Ken and Glen discussed something about the recent lawsuit that Ken was facing.

He dialed Daniella\'s number, it rang twice before she answered it.

"Hello?" hearing the softness of her voice, Evan could not help but smile.

"Daniella, what are you doing?"

"I am with Scott; we are going to stay to Claire\'s house for the weekend."

Her answer has made his smile vanished, he rose an eyebrow as he tried to remember if Daniella mentioned anything about sleeping somewhere else.

"Wait, are you not going to sleep with me today?" when Evan realized what he had just said, it was already too late, his friend had heard it and now staring at him with narrowed eyes.

"No, I will be gone for four days since Selena\'s school will resume on Monday."

Frown registered on Evan\'s face as he sighed, "that\'s too long," he complained, "Selena needs a sitter this weekend -"

"I\'ll see you on Monday babe."

After he was cut out, Evan started to blush, he looked like an embarrassed teenager staring at the piece of broccoli he left on his plate.

He went silent, and he could hear the voice of Scott on the other line teasing Daniella.

"Are you there?" Daniella asked when he didn\'t reply.

Evan cleared his throat to get his senses back, he slowly blew an air before responding, "yes, I am here. Can I see you later?"

"no."

He rose an eyebrow, "why?"

"Because it\'s Claire\'s house," she replied.

"So?"

The other line went silent, and he could hear the sigh coming out from Daniella\'s side.

"just for five minutes, I will leave too," his voice was in a pleasing tone, eyes narrowing threw a piercing look to his friends.

"You can\'t."

"I won\'t touch you. I promise."

"No."

"Please?"

He heard Scott chuckling on the other line, but it soon faded and was replaced by his groan.

"Stop it kicking me Daniella. We will have an accident soon." He heard Scott complaining.

"Then shut up."

Evan pressed his lips after hearing the anger in Daniella\'s voice, it was different than the tone she has when she talks to him, it was as if it\'s from a different person.

"Evan?"

He sighed, wondering why she suddenly starts calling his name again.

"Fine, five minutes but you can\'t kiss me."

"You need to be specific about the kiss."

Daniella on the other line giggled, "lips."

He rose an eyebrow, a mischievous smile curved upon his lips, "anywhere but not lips. Got it!"

There was slight happiness in his heart, he smiled and nodded, "ok, what\'s the address?"

While Daniella was giving him the address, Evan was writing it down on the tissue. He folded it in half and shoved in the pocket of his suit.

"I will see you later," he said with a suppressing smile.

"See you." His heart ached for a moment as he ended the phone call, for some unknown reason just seeing her is enough to complete his day.

He sighed and drunk the rest of the wine in his glass.

When he lowered the glass on the table, he found his friends staring at him with a poker face.

"Did you just beg at her?" Glen asked in disbelief.

Evan ignored him and looked at Ken, the man was giving him a murderous look, "Ugh! I want to puke," he said in exaggeration and gestured to puke.

Evan wrinkled his nose with annoyance, this was one of the reasons why he won\'t allow Daniella to meet his friend.

On the other side, Danny sitting next to his father sneakily drunk the wine from his father\'s glass while he and his uncle Ken were busy eavesdroppings to his uncle Evan\'s phone conversation.
