After Death, Love Unveiled

Chapter 73

"He can't take your call right now," Elara said. Lysander hadn't returned for the weekend, and he rarely used his phone

anymore

The military academy had strict rules, and his coach was particularly attentive to him. This left him little time to play with his phone. Even his Instagram account was managed by Elara.

Hearing Elara's words, Jacqueline let out a cold laugh. "Is it that he can't take your call, or do you just not have Lysander's

number at all?"

Elara responded firmly. "Of course I have it

Jacqueline smirked. "I doubt you really do. If you have his number, why don't you call him? Do you think we're all fools?"

"Why am I the only one being singled out?" Elara gestured toward Daphne, who was standing nearby. "Why doesn't she have to call?"

"Daphne talks to Lysander on the phone every day at school. I obviously trust her." Jacqueline shot back.

'Daphne can really call Lysander? Elara thought, struggling to believe it.

"Then how about we have her call him right now? Elara challenged.

"Who do you think you are?" Jacqueline continued, her voice rising. "You show up at my birthday party and question me! Everyone here should believe me, right?" She looked toward her friends for support. Naturally, the crowd sided with Jacqueline. They didn't know Elara at all. In their eyes, she was just a crazy woman trying to get attention from Lysander and his girlfriend.

Seeing that everyone was on her side, Jacqueline turned to Quarry. "Quarry, if your friend keeps making trouble. I'm really going to get angry

Quarry glanced at Elara, lowering his voice. "Elara, let's discuss this later. Why don't we just leave? You don't need to act this way."

Quarry truly didn't want to cause any trouble. Since Jacqueline had declared that Daphne was Lysander's girlfriend, Quarry didn't want to escalate the situation. Elara glared at Quarry. "I can't stand her pretending to be Lysander's girlfriend."

"But you're not Lysander's girlfriend either," Quarry replied. "This has nothing to do with you. Even if she's lying, it's not our business."
