Anna's POV
Catherine peered over my shoulder, her eyebrows arching in surprise.
"Dad? What's he calling you for?"
I answered, putting the call on speaker. To my surprise, it wasn't Phillip but William Murphy's warm, gravelly voice that came through.
"Annie, is there anything your Grandpa William or your Uncle Phillip can help with? You just say the word.
Don't worry, don't be afraid. William's here to make everything right for you."
The familiar concern in his voice wrapped around me like a warm blanket, easing some of the tension from my shoulders. Despite my exhaustion, I couldn't help but gently scold him.
"William, why aren't you resting yet?
It's so late."
Catherine leaned closer to the phone.
"Grandpa, I'm here too. Anyone who dares to bully Shaw Corp or hurt Anna will have to answer to me."
William grumbled good-naturedly, "You! It would be impressive if you weren't causing Anna more problems."
