On the phone, it was Anna Harris's voice.
Julius Reed could not have mistaken it.
But, he did not rush to question her.
"Anna, where is Quella?"
"Quella went to the restroom! Worried that you'd call her, she left her phone with me."
Over the phone, Anna Harris's voice sounded quite playful.
"When did you arrive in Gonzalez City? Why didn't you tell me? At the very least, I could have treated you to a full package of food, drinks, and entertainment!"
Julius Reed spoke as though he was completely uninformed, his tone very casual.
"I just got to the capital, and Quella picked me up from the airport."
Anna Harris said with a chuckle, "Miss me?"
"Get lost! When are you coming back? I'll cook for you."
Julius Reed suppressed the anger in his heart and asked as if he were very relaxed.
"Not coming back. Originally, Quella picked me up from the airport, but now there's trouble in Gonzalez City, so she's coming back with me."
