Chapter 15: Norma's Phone Call

Jocelyn walked to the head of the table.

"Sorry to interrupt," she said to the director. "I'm Jocelyn Ellington."

She nodded at Norma.

"Mrs. Reeve just called me a jealous ex, so I think I get a turn."

"Ms. Ellington, this is a closed review..."

"Then close the door behind me and let me read you something."

Norma found her voice.

"That woman is unstable. She harassed my son for months."

"I broke up with your son on a Tuesday," Jocelyn said. "You were at my bakery on Wednesday. You called me the following week."

She laid her phone flat on the table and tapped the screen.

"Here's the call. Fifteen minutes, 4:52 in the afternoon, from a number saved as 'Norma Reeve, Calvin's mom.'"

The woman with the recorder leaned forward and held her device closer.

"I didn't pick up the first time," Jocelyn went on. "So she texted."

She looked at the phone.

"I screenshotted every word. I was shaking, and I wanted proof I wasn't crazy."

She scrolled and read in a flat, clear voice.

"'Jocelyn dear, I understand your choice. Calvin needs a different kind of girl.
