"I've also considered it, but I'll ponder some more. You should get some rest, I'm hanging up now." Aria Grant ended the call right away, because she had wanted to hang up for a while. Charlotte Barratt on the other end of the line just wouldn't stop talking.
George Flack clearly heard the part about her needing to consider something. But what was she needing to ponder about?
"What did he say to you earlier? And what serious matter were you discussing at the end of the call? It sounded important." At this point, George had lost his appetite and was simply curious about what Charlotte Barratt had said to Aria.
George was actually quite scared now. After all, Joshua Mamet had claimed over the phone he couldn't protect Aria in any way. George had started to waver, feeling that this might actually be true.
