Chapter 53

Leanne furrowed her brow

They really did share everything with each other.

Beside her, Joy, who had been eagerly eavesdropping while the traffic light was red, couldn’t resist any longer. With a swift move, she snatched the phone from Leanne, putting on a ridiculously posh accent.

“Oh my, if it isn’t Suzie! Why didn’t you tell me you were back in town, darling?”

Suzan sounded genuinely puzzled, “I’m sorry, who is this…….?”

“It’s Joy, sweetheart!” Joy didn’t bother trying to jog any non-existent memories Suzan might have had of her.

“It’s been ages since we’ve caught up and I’ve been absolutely dying to see you! How could we miss your homecoming bash? Even if it were raining knives, we’d crawl there! Send me the details, and we’ll see you tonight!”

With that, Joy hung up without giving Leanne a chance to get a word in.
