Just as she reached out to receive it, his phone rang.

“Sorry, let me get this call,” he said, quickly pushing the napkin into her hand before taking out his phone.

Noticing that it was from Jackson, he frowned before answering it. “Hello?”

“Shane, bad news. Something's happened to Jacqueline,” Jackson said anxiously.
