Chapter 603


    The phone rang. It was a call from Theo.


    I picked up the phone, my voice softened slightly. "I just woke up.”


    "Mm!” His voice was hoarse but sounded particrly pleasant. "Eat somethingter. It''s fine if you


    can''t sleep. I happen to be free now and can stay on the phone to talk to you.”


    I nodded. "Mm!”


    "I may have to stay in France for a few days.


    Remember to eat your meals in time and don’t stay upte. If you''re bored, get Jerome to bring


    Munchkin over to keep youpany."


    I pursed my lips. "Okay.”


    It seemed that something troublesome had cropped u p in France and he did not know it would be


    so much trouble to handle before he went. That was why he was now calling me to inform me that


    he was going to have to stay there for a few more days.


    Theo chuckled a few times. "Do you miss me?"


    I lifted my hand to stroke my nose. "I guess you can say that.” "What do you mean by that?"


    My cheeks were slightly red, so I quickly said, "If there''s nothing else, then I''m hanging up.”


    Theo sneered. "Looks like you''re really happy that I''m i n France."


    " n


    Was he deliberately looking for a fight?


    Theo had things to do on his side so he could not have idle chats with me.


    "Tyler and Carlson won''t be in Salt City for a few days, so give Xander a call if you need anything


    and he’ll help you."


    I nodded. "Okay."


    Later, the other end of the phone fell silent. I was a reticent person to begin with, so when he did not


    say anything, I could not find any topic to talk about either.


    After half a minute of silence, I thought about it and said, "Come back early."


    After a very long time, there was a low and hoarse voice on the other end of the call. "Okay."


    Since we had nothing to say, I looked at the phone and nned to hang up.


    Though unexpectedly, the man on the other end of the call said, "Remember to think of me!"


    I...


    My heart warmed up for a moment. It felt a little hot a s if this kind of warmth could surround my


    whole heart.


    "Okay," I replied, my voice subconsciously softened.


    After hanging up the phone, I could not go back to sleep, so I went to the study instead. Thus, it was


    another sleepless night.


    Miss Woods was a very meticulous woman as she woke up very early in the morning to prepare


    breakfast.


    When she saw meing downstairs after I changed my clothes and styled my hair a little, she


    was stunned for a moment before asking, "Are you going outter?"


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    I nodded. "I''m going out because I have an appointment with someone."


    "Do you want me toe along?"


    She looked at me a little worriedly.


    "Your dark circles have grown darker. Did you not go back to sleep after waking upst night?”


    I hummed a reply and took a few bites of my breakfast before going out the door.


    I did not intend to go out at first, but Cassey sent me a text and told me that she was in River Town.


    She asked me to do my part as the host since we were friends.


    There was no reason for me to refuse after hearing what she said, hence I agreed.


    Before leaving home, I looked around the garage and found that several low-profile cars had been


    sent for maintenance. The cars that had just returned from the workshop were too shy.
