Crystal's POV:

At that moment, my heart stopped beating in my chest.

The news almost knocked me out on the spot.

With trembling hands, I picked up my phone clumsily. I couldn't even turn on my phone because my fingers were shaking. When I finally managed to turn the device on, I found that there was no signal. I was so anxious that I wanted to smash the phone on impulse, but soon, I heard a series of beeps from the phone, indicating that its signal had returned to normal.

I quickly unlocked the phone and many missed call notifications popped up.

At this time, I found that my phone was full of power. But I thought my phone was dead. It certainly didn't look like it that it was fully charged in just a few minutes, so why was my phone turned off in the first place?
