Chapter 186

Seeing that Cecilia was sound asleep, I got up and opened the sliding door to the balcony.

Rosella City was famous for its superior air quality, especially in the neighborhood that Cecilia had picked.

As it was three floors up, the trees and greenery were all I saw. The air was filled with the fragrance of the earth. In the distance, robins and other unknown birds chirped, adding a bit of liveliness.

The phone in the room rang. I quickly answered it in order not to disturb Cecilia's sleep.

"Where are you?" the other party said before I could say anything.

The low and cold voice was familiar. I checked the caller in surprise. There was no name but the number was familiar. I could not recall who it was for a moment, hence I wisely chose to remain silent.

"Talk." The other party sounded impatient and raised his voice.

I asked, "Dr. Lynch?"

It sounded like him but his tone was different. Dr. Lynch had always sounded very gentle.
