While Nora was wondering about it curiously, Caleb coughed and said, “Forget it, I won’t say it anymore.”

“…”

The corners of Nora’s lips spasmed a little and she suspected that Caleb was playing her for a fool.

Seemingly sensing her displeasure, Caleb chuckled lowly and said, “I really can’t bring myself to say it. If I ever see you again in this lifetime, I will tell you in person.”

Caleb had returned to the mysterious organization this time as the special department’s spy.

He only had two months left to live.

In fact, if his lung cancer worsened, he might not even have two months.

Therefore, he didn’t know when he would be able to return to America and see Nora again.

Nora realized what he meant, so she said, “We will meet for sure.”

“Hopefully.”

Caleb was about to speak again when a shrill voice suddenly came from the far end of the phone. “Who are you calling, hiding here?”

It was Trueman!

Nora frowned, worried about Caleb.

“No one in particular.” Caleb’s voice was calm and he didn’t seem to be nervous at all.

“Oh? Heh, show me!”

The sound of people fighting over the phone came from the other side. Caleb said anxiously, “Give me back the phone!”

Trueman scoffed. “Am I not allowed to know who you’re on the phone with? I’m going to see what you’re doing behind my back!”

After that, Trueman must have looked at the phone and seen her name, because he sneered and said, “My little servant?”
