Ezra got annoyed due to Phil. He ignored Phil after hanging up and focused on having the cozy night with his wife and son.

Phil who seemed sober in the phone now failed to calm down. He kept on pondering what Anya and Maisie talked about. According to Maisie's story, the reason why Anya phoned her was to roast him, which was not Anya's style.

Only Ezra who was love-struck would trust Maisie, but Phil didn't believe a word of her words.

Anya was not that kind of person who would talk about her ex-husband. She actually had a heart of stone, who was unwilling to mention him at all.

If she did say something bad about him, it represented that she still thought about him. It was because of resentment that she remained complaining about him long after their divorcing.

As a cheesy saying went, "Smacking and scolding are a form of love." And the resentment probably came from love.

Phil knew that Anya didn't love him, so he was sure that Anya would not speak ill of him.

So, why on earth did she talk with Maisie in the phone for so long?

Did she get sick?

Thinking of this, Phil sat up on his bed suddenly with a sullen look, which showed he did worry about her. Though Anya was slender, she had a healthy body who hardly got ill.

However, once she fell ill, it would be severe which could make her fail to get up for days.

In retrospect, Anya just got sick for twice during their marriage. The first time was that she ate out with her schoolmates and got an acute stomach flu. On that day, she suffered diarrhea and sickness and even had a fever. Phil sent her to the hospital at midnight, and she had an IV drip all night.

The other time was she ran away from home after being at odds with Phil. It was a cold winter night, and she caught a cold in her flimsy clothes. And she was too stubborn to tell him after that which finally led to a pneumonia due to a fever. At that time, she stayed in hospital for three days.
