Devin smiled, without looking Zaydenâs way.
He then gave a phone to Theodore.
âAldus misses you.
But since you didnât pick up his calls, he sent me over.

âDevin, tell him to put me down.
Now! Holden has already lost his mind! Heâs ready to kill me, his brother, over some bitch!â
Stuck on the hospital bed, Zayden hollered at Devin, making a scene without any concern for how he might look.
