“Then, what else do you want?” She tried to make her tone more calm and more natural so that he wouldn’t notice anything strange. “Answer me a question.” “What?” “Did you miss me?”
Yes.
The word was on the tip of her tongue. But when she thought of Ruby Meeks, she swallowed it back abruptly. “Mr. Nash, how long have we been apart? How can I miss you so soon? And I’ve been busy all day today…” “So, your head is full of work? Without me?”
Zayla responded with a soft “um”. On the other end of the phone, Lincoln’s face was impervious. Afterwards, Zayla yawned a few times, “Lincoln, I’m a little sleepy.” “Go to sleep.”
“Um….”
“If this little head is full of work during the day, is there any space for me in the dream?” “Um..” Zayla replied perfunctorily. She said sleepily, but this was her cover-up. “Good.” “Good night.” My girl.
Zayla responded lightly again, and after hanging up the phone, she put the phone on the coffee table, lying back on the sofa, and looked at this strange city outside the floor-to-ceiling windows. Valley City was a strange city to her.
Although this was not the first time she had come to Valley City, it was the first time she had come to this city, an unfamiliar city to her, in such a miserable mood. “Lincoln, can I trust you?
It must be a ‘Yes’ to this question, right?” She flipped through the phone album and looked at the photo of the two of them at the beach. At the same time. In another place in Valley City.
Lincoln’s stalwart figure was reflected in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. He looked at the quiet courtyard under the night but felt irrationally irritable, a kind of feeling that he had never had before. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. “Lincoln?” Ruby’s voice came from outside the door.
Lincoln collected his thoughts. His stony expression exposed not even a little emotion. “What’s wrong?” He didn’t even open the door. “Lincoln, can you open the door? I’m right at the door…”
“No.”
He replied in a cold voice. Then he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to John. There was only one simple sentence: [Take your sister away.] “Lincoln, did you come to Valley City today because you heard that I was not in a good condition?”
“No.” Lincoln said without hesitation. “Lincoln, I heard from my brother that you have a sweetheart, right?” “Um.” “Good.” Ruby’s tone was full of innocence, but her fists were already tightly clenched. “Then I wish you happiness forever.” © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Lincoln snorted coldly. “You can also give me your wish tomorrow.” Ruby sighed softly. Her voice was still so gentle and innocent. “Lincoln, you also know… my physical condition. “As long as it is what I want to say, I must tell you immediately.
“Otherwise, otherwise, I’m afraid… I won’t see the sunrise tomorrow and can’t tell you what I want to say.” Lincoln heard her words, but he was not moved at all, unsmiling.
This was Ruby’s common trick, pretending to be pitiful to win sympathy. Because of her poor physical health, she felt that the whole world would give her what she wanted. Ha!
If it weren’t because of John, how could he fly to Valley City early in the morning instead of working with Zayla? His slender fingers flipped on his phone, looking through the photo album in which every photo was her. She was pretty. So pretty.
