Lucy's eyes closed slightly. Matthew got nearer and nearer. Their lips were just within reach and were about to touch when a sudden phone call interrupted the atmosphere. Matthew was taken aback. It made the situation awkward, and Lucy slowly backed away. She opened her eyes and smiled brightly at Matthew.

"How about... if you pick up the call first?"

Matthew's face fell, and he chose to ignore the ringing phone. He continued hugging Lucy and said, "That won't do. I'm not about to let my kiss get away from me."

The phone continued ringing, and Matthew attempted to kiss Lucy again. Things began to heat up between them. Lucy suddenly felt shy about it.

Just as his kiss was about to land, the phone rang once more. The caller did not seem to want to give up...

The romantic atmosphere was ruined once more. The veins on Matthew's forehead throbbed, and there was nothing Lucy could do about the situation.

"You should pick up the call first. What if it's something important? You... You can kiss me any other time."

Lucy's voice got gradually smaller, but Matthew heard everything. He burst out with a laugh and pinched her nose while saying, "Alright. I'll pick up the call first and have my kiss later..."

Matthew took out his phone and saw that the call was from Kent. His face fell immediately. It was amazing how fast his expression changed.

"This had better be something important."
