Chapter 42

“Sure,” Zane said, immediately pulling out his phone and transferring 15 thousand dollars to her.

“You’re so good to me, Zane!” said Alice.

“Give me your phone,” Zane said.

Hearing his words, Alice stopped grinning. “Sorry, I just remembered I have something to do!” she said, standing up to escape.

However, as soon as she got up, Zane grabbed her by the arm. “Your phone.”

“Do you have to be in such a hurry, Zane?” Alice smiled awkwardly, but seeing his increasingly stern expression, she reluctantly handed her phone

over.

Zane took the phone and opened the contacts, smiling as he saw the number saved under “Elysia“.

Alice stared at him in disbelief. She thought, ‘Did Zane smile? No way!‘ She asked, “Zane, do you have a crush on Elysia?”

Ever since the last time when Zane dropped off Elysia, something had felt off, but she hadn’t quite figured it out until now.

She thought, ‘How could Zane, such a proud guy, possibly send someone home and even shake hands with a girl?‘ The key thing was the speed he drove last time–now she finally understood why.

“You’re just a kid. You shouldn’t be asking this,” said Zane.

“I’m not a kid anymore! I’ll be honest with you, Zane. You and Elysia aren’t a good match. She’s still young, but you’re…” she stammered.

At her words, Zane shot her a sharp look, and Alice immediately shut her mouth. “Well, I still have something to do…” She quickly grabbed her phone back from him and bolted away.

Zane looked at the number he had just entered into his phone, feeling a little uneasy. He dialed the number, and after a brief beep, it was picked up. “Hello?” someone greeted him in a beautiful voice. Zane gripped his phone tightly and didn’t respond for a long while. Elysia, seeing the unfamiliar number, was puzzled. She cautiously asked, “Hello? Is someone there?”
