Turning Of the Tide by Diana Sander

Chapter 194

Meanwhile, Hackett was still in the hotel

The man was sleeping soundly under the blanket and seemed to be dreaming. There was a smile on his lips, making him look a little silly

The sudden ringtone brought him back to reality. Hackett took out his phone from under the pillow with his eyes closed. He tapped the answer icon and placed it by his ear. His eyes remained closed as he said in a low and hoarse voice, “Hello.”

A resentful voice came from the other end of the call. “Hackett. I asked you to stay in the hotel to win Sherri’s heart, not to enjoy yourself. Hurry up and get up. Look at the time. How dare you sleep soundly without even being able to bring your woman and daughter back?”

It was already half past two in the afternoon. When Joy heard her son’s hoarse voice, she knew he was still in bed. She was so angry that she would burst into anger it she did not scold him.

She waited a few seconds for her son to respond.

There was dead silence on the other end of the call, followed by the sound of his son’s steady breathing.

Joy didnt want to say anything anymore. If her son were at home, she would hit him with a stick by now.

She had no idea why Hackett loved to sleep so much.

Joy was so angry that she hung up the call.

After about five minutes, the hotel’s doorbell kept ringing. The landline in the room also rang at the same time. The knocking on the door and the ringing of the phone made Hackett unable to fall asleep and continue his sweet dream.

He sat up in frustration, scratched his head, and scolded. “Who is it? Why are you disturbing my sleep so early in the morning? Are you courting death?”

The person outside the door might have heard his curses. The next second, the knocking on the door and the ringing phone stopped abruptly. Hackett was already half awake. He sat on the bed with his eyes closed, preparing to wake up.

It took a while for him to open his eyes. He was in a bad mood.

He remembered that his mother had called him. But what did she say?

He seemed to have forgotten. He vaguely remembered she said something about winning Sherri’s heart.
