Chapter 436: Dual Cultivation with Wolf Milk

"Have you been paying for this number all this time?"

Edward Harper responded with a hum. He had just arrived at the office in the morning when he heard the ringtone from the briefcase. This particular phone, he usually wouldn't answer.

Seeing that the incoming call was from a number he knew by heart, he couldn't resist answering.

"Your old phone has been with me. I had it repaired. Apart from some paint chipping off the case, I replaced the screen, but nothing else was damaged."

He spoke truthfully, without hiding anything.

Clara Knox's breathing stuttered, recalling events from four years ago.

"The things inside that phone..."

"Everything is still there."

"Can you return the phone to me this afternoon?"

Edward Harper remained silent on the other end of the call for a few seconds.

"Clara... Can't you at least leave me this bit of longing?"
