Marc had been more than stunned when a phone call from an ‘Ali’ was connected to him in his office. His stomach had launched up in his throat, making him almost gag on his coffee out of sheer nerves of speaking to her for the first time since he told her everything. He had thought she might be calling to give him a tongue-lashing over being a gigantic bastard, which was always a possibility with Ali.
