Charlotte Thompson's heart skipped a beat, listening to Annie Anne's almost uncontrollable voice on the other end of the phone, she couldn't describe what she was feeling.
She turned off the stove, listening to the faint bubbling sound coming from the pot, and closed her eyes.
"Annie, calm down."
Annie Anne had just woken up and was undoubtedly shifting between lucidity and confusion. Seeing Olivia Thompson now might frighten her.
But Annie Anne couldn't calm down at all, Charlotte felt a bit of a headache and pulled over a chair to sit down.
Where was Oliver Hudson? With Annie Anne being this out of control, why hadn't she heard him say anything?
Suppressing the urge to curse at Oliver Hudson, Charlotte heard Annie Anne's intermittent voice through the receiver.
"Charlotte, I want to see Annie. I miss her so much."
Then, she began to neurotically murmur Olivia Thompson's name.
