Chapter 139

It's getting late and Mona hadn't heard from Lester all through the day. She wondered what could have happened. No matter how busy he was, he always looked for a way to communicate with me. He could send a text or a voice note.

But he had not called or sent a text message since last night.

"I hope he is alright," Mona said, sighing.

She got up so she could freshen up and prepare for bed before Ella would come back. As soon as she stood up, her phone started ringing displaying Ella. She picked it up, wondering what could be the issue.

"Mona, I… I won't be back home tonight. I need to go and see Gerald for a late night," Ella said as soon as the call connected.

"Late night date? Who does that?" Mona asked, chuckling.

" What do you know? Have you ever gone on a date?" Ella retorted.
