Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After (Linsey)

Chapter 773 Mommy Won't Believe That

When Zander locked the bathroom door, he made sure there was no sound coming from outside.

He then tapped on his watch a couple of times.

Soon, Zenia's hushed voice came through the watch. "You aren't back yet, Zander?"

Whispering so he couldn't be heard, Zander said, "The bad man is a tough nut to crack. I need more time."

"But if you're not back soon, Mommy would know you're gone," Zenía said nervously.

"If Mommy asks, just tell her I went to play with Jimmie."

"Who's Jimmie?" Zenia asked curiously.

Zander without hesitation lied. "It's a friend I made here in Grester. Just tell Mommy that. Don't change the

story!"

Zenia, however, was quite hesitant. "We've only been in Grester for a few days, and we've mostly been at the hotel. How then could you have made a new friend? Mommy won't believe that."

"Just do as I say. I'll be back once I've dealt with the bad man," Zander said earnestly.

Then, Lindsey's voice came through on Zenia's end, curiously asking, "Who are you talking to, sweetie, and
