"Sure, if that makes you feel any better, I'm fine with it."
Evangeline's eyes twinkled, not the least bit surprised by Celina's revelation that she had once saved her.
Celina's eyes widened in astonishment. "You knew all this time?"
"Of course."
Evangeline raised her head with a mischievous grin "You know, you almost hadfooled. Too bad the
handkerchief you gavewas a little frayed around the edges-obviously a well-loved item. However, we're not
exactly at the 'sharing used stuff' stage of our friendship, so | knew something was up. That is, until David saw
the handkerchief."
Just one look from him was all it took to prove Evangeline right.

"I'm not one to keep score, Celina. Just so we're clear, | helped you because it was the right thing to do. Even if
you were a total stranger lying on the side of the road, I'd have done the same."
"Then | owe you big time." Celina's face was ghostly, but her smile was like a lily in full bloom-delicate and pure,
the kind that made Evangeline want to shield her from the world.
"Don't mention it. Just focus on getting better. There's plenty of tfor everything else later."
Evangeline's words flowed with ease. As she got up to leave, a thought struck her, and she turned back, "Oh, by

Celina's eyes flickered with embarrassment before a wave of icy resentment washed over her face. "What, a
couple extra words and we're dating? Please, that's just ridiculous!"
Her voice was raspy, but the scoff was crystal clear to Evangeline. She figured she would stay out of their love
life .
Considering Walter had thrown her a lifeline with that phone call, she thought delivering a message for him
would square them up nicely.
"Here's the deal," Evangeline began, "David sentto tell you he's tied up with stuff overseas and can't mak it
back right now. He's hoping Walter can drop by in his place. I'm fine with it, but it's really up to you. If you're
okay with seeing Walter, | can send him in whenever."
Celina's eyes flickered, taking in her battered and weakened limbs.
She was a mess, having nearly lost her life. What was there for David to even look at?
A memory flashed through her mind: the car crash, and David's face surfacing in her thoughts, a lone beaco of
hope.
However, her frantic calls to David only ever returned a chilling busy signal

What was the point of a guy like that? If he was not there what difference would meeting Walter make?
"Ms Evangeline," she declared, "T've told the Poster family's gentlemen before, and I'll say it again | won't meet
with anyone else, and | won't trust anyone else!"
She trusted only Evangeline However, since she could it be sure of Evangeline's true feelings, she kept her own
heart guarded, waiting for a chance to gauge Evangeline's stance
Evangeline replied with a hint of resignation, "Okay, then I'll turn Walter away for you"
