The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 272: Chapter 269: Taking a Breather

Halfway through reading the message, Elliana Lyle suddenly sat up in bed, squinting slightly to see more clearly.

Clearly, she wasn’t mistaken.

Without thinking much, she directly dialed a video call.

The ring lasted until the final prompt that the other party might be unavailable, yet Summer Hue didn’t answer.

After it automatically hung up, she considered calling again when a message from Summer Hue popped up in the chat bar.

Summer Hue: "Cousin, I’m driving, and I want to be quiet for a while. Don’t worry about me. Could you let Zane Bennett know?"

Seeing this, Elliana decided against calling again.

Driving was just an excuse; picking up the phone was way easier than typing. Perhaps she didn’t want to answer her call.

She found out yesterday that the two had argued, thought things would be better today, but didn’t expect that they needed to separate to cool off.

Whatever the issue was, she couldn’t guess.

But the couple’s affairs were not for her to meddle in. Her position was indeed awkward, as Zane’s sister-in-law and Summer’s cousin.

She played the role of a middle person.

Which was why this message task fell into her lap.

She rubbed her heavy head and sighed deeply at her phone screen.

Peaches: "Okay, I’ll let him know. Where are you? Don’t wander around alone."

Bzzz～

Summer Hue: "I’m just going to stay by the seaside for a while and I’ll be back soon. By then, I’ll bring you some shells back, cousin."

This was as good as saying nothing. There are so many seasides in the country, at least there should be a name, or maybe a foreign seaside.

But she understood why Summer said this: firstly, to reassure her, and secondly, to keep her specific whereabouts undisclosed.

Probably worried she would tell Zane Bennett.

Peaches: "Alright then, take care and drive safely, look after yourself and eat well once you get there."

Peaches: "Remember to call me when you arrive."
