CH 102
Wil
He stood in Calvin’s office waiting for him to get off the phone; he was already on a business call, because the person he was talking to was on the East Coast. It might be 9am here, but it was many hours ahead over there. He couldn’t believe that Calvin had yet again managed to tick Marilyn off, without even going near her.
Although he did understand that it was the twins that had contacted Calvin, the screenshots that he’d gotten of their conversation had shown him that. So Marilyn herself understood this, but the question was how long it had gone on was still on his mind, he was betting all weekend, and likely until she’d found out this morning.
He wasn’t so much as mad at Calvin right that minute, just annoyed really. It was also his birthday today and yet here he was having to deal with a new unhappy situation between Marilyn and Calvin, not what he
wanted to do today, of all days.
“Yes Wil,” Calvin stated when he got off the phone.
Wil held out his phone to the man, he already had the pictures Marilyn had sent him up there. He saw Calvin read her response to what she’d just found out about him and the twins. “Hmm, to be expected I think.” He just nodded.
“That’s all you have to say on the matter?” Wil muttered.
“You’ve got Marilyn’s actual mobile number I see.” Calvin raised an eyebrow at him.
“Yes, and I’m not giving it to you, she told me not to, so don’t ask or try and get it from me.” Wil stated, of
course, Calvin would release that at that moment.
“I didn’t start that conversation, Wil, and you were the one that told me not to ignore any of them. I followed your advice. I also couldn’t contact her to tell her they were messaging me now, could I?”
He had Wil on that one, seems the man had already thought things through. “She’s unhappy,” Wil reiterated.
“Look, I didn’t hide that conversation from her. Vsent my schedule as per normal, yesterday at 0830. I also didn’t ask the boys to delete the conversation. So she wouldn’t see it. That should show her that I know she’ll see it at some point. Not hiding it from her,” Calvin stated.
Wil sighed now as he looked at Calvin because he’d not done that, and he could have. “She’s opted to confiscate the phone from the boys for a week over this. So don’t expect to hear anything from them in that
time.”
“Alright.” Calvin nodded.
Wil sat himself in the chair across from Calvin and just stared at him for a long moment. “What was the conversation with the boys about?” he asked. “I only got two pictures of the start of the conversation, not the entire thing.” He needed the details to know how to manage this, try and gauge Marilyn’s reaction properly.
She’d stated she was annoyed, but not elaborated on that.
He saw Calvin smiling now. “They just told me about the things they were doing. Day to day, Marilyn bought a new house, Wil. Calvin sighed heavily “Prepping I think to disappear once more.”
“Well, this won’t help you to gain her trust,” Wil muttered. “I also really don’t need this today of all days, Calvin

“I know it’s your birthday, and I wasn’t aiming to cause you any trouble, Wil,” Calvin told him.
“You should have told me over the weekend about this.”
“Mm,” I didn’t really see it as a big deal Wil. The boys wanted to talk to me as their dad. They should be allowed to, shouldn’t they?” Calvin countered.
“Under normal circumstances, yes.” Wil agreed with him. “But your circumstances aren’t exactly normal now,
are they Calvin. And with that restraining order you should curb this in them and yourself.”
Again, Wil could only nod. “I did tell her I’d advised you to do that and that, technically you didn’t breach anything. She, however, is still annoyed, and I don’t know her well enough to know what she’ll do with that
Wil even knew why he chuckled, because, for the past 7 years, if his and Anabell’s birthdays that fell on a working day, had become a long lunch for both of them. Which meant that both of them wouldn’t return to the office at all.
