The instant he saw his boss calling, Leo knew he was in trouble.
Sure enough, Damian sounded impatient when he answered. "I sent you to pick someone up, and now you've both disappeared? Do you know what time it is?"
Leo nervously told the truth. "Mr. Waverly, Mrs. Waverly's clothes got wet. She can't keep wearing them, so she's buying a change of clothes at the mall."
"What did she do this time to get her clothes wet?"
"Well, she was buying your mother a gift at a jewelry store, and an employee accidentally spilled water on her. We decided it would save time to buy an outfit here."
At the unembellished report, some of Damian's irritation finally eased. He made a low, cold sound of annoyance. "What a nuisance."
"As soon as she picks something, we'll head straight over..."
