It was Keith calling.

Valeria picked up the call. "Hello..."

"Valeria, where are you? Jepson said that he couldn't get through to you for the entire night. Alex has been with him. What's going on!"

Jepson stood behind Valeria and Alex, leaning against the door frame. Valeria stood up and held Alex's hand. "I'm sorry. I was delayed by something today. I'll take Alex home now. You should rest early, too."

Just as she was about to turn around and leave, another man's voice came from the apartment.
