Chapter 420

Irene was actually surprised that Isaac would call her first–he never did that after he went abroad twice.

Naturally, it surprised her that he would call her.

“Why…”

“Mrs. Watson told me that you were sick.”

Irene’s fingers clenched on her phone–he only called because Mrs. Watson told him that she was ill, not because he missed her?

Hanging her head, she said, “I’m fine. I just fainted from fatigue.”

“Are you feeling better now?”

“Yeah, much better. You don’t have to worry.”

“Yeah.”

Silence ensued, and it was so quiet that both could hear each other’s breathing.

Neither of them spoke, but they were not hanging up either.

“Yeah,” he replied.

However, neither did.
