You have had your first bump into the wall of strictly linking views, controller and model. I generally tend to link the views and controller more and keep my models more loose. That is, I don't have a problem with using ModelB in ControllerA.
I read that you want one click to save both Contact and related phone numbers. If so, I have a two things to offer (off the top of my head): You can possibly just switch to $this->Contact->saveAll($this->data) if your data is returned correctly from the form. Hint: one single form. You can check the cookbook for the details on how to use saveAll. You can reach the PhoneNumber model like $this->Contact->PhoneNumber and save data that way if you need to.
