On the other end, Jaelyn was surprised to hear a woman's voice and hesitated, asking, “Is this Maggie?"

Keeping up her sweet act, Maggie replied, "Yep, it's me, Maggie. Sanford's in the shower right now, but you can leave a message with me and I'll pass it on when he's done."

Sanford's hand shook a bit as he held his water glass, exchanging amused glances with the couple across from him, his eyebrow raised in unexpected delight.

He had challenged her to outsmart a rival and she had aced it!

After ending the call with nothing urgent from Jaelyn, Maggie breathed a sigh of relief.
