“Why didn’t you answer your phone? I was negotiating with the local government and needed you to


    send me the project documents. I couldn’t get through to you at all. How could you turn off your phone


    during work?”


    Shera was stunned. Since she’d started working in the charity department, Mr. Perez had always been


    polite to her. This was the first time he’d scolded her.


    Swallowing her grievance, Shera lowered her head in shame. To add insult to injury, her phone began


    ringing.


    “I’m so sorry for this, sir. My battery died just now.”


    Shera’s phone buzzed in defiance.


    “Shera, someone’s calling you,”


    Lily said.


    “Crank call,” she said dismissively.


    Without raising her head, Shera sorted out the project documents, trying to focus on her work.


    “Okay,” said Lily.

    After tidying up the documents, Shera picked up her phone and checked the call log. As she scrolled,


    her phone buzzed once more. Ryan was calling again.


    She hesitated for a moment, then took the phone to the bathroom.


    “You cklisted me?” he demanded, his voice cold.


    “No,” Shera replied, confused.


    “Why would I do that?”


    “I called you ten times, but you didn’t answer,” Ryan said angrily.


    Ryan gritted his teeth. It was rare for him to call someone ten times and not get through.


    Shera’s heart sank. She remembered the crank call that had been harassing her all day. It must have


    blocked Ryan’s calls.


    Shera held her phone to her ear.


    “There’s something wrong with the phone. I couldn’t answer it.”


    Ryan snorted, suspecting she was ying a game.


    “Anyway, go ahead with why you called,” said Shera.


    Since he’d called her, she thought something must me wrong.


    “I’m also in Peach Town,” Ryan said.
