Shelby hurried to call Wilbur up as well.
"Wilbur, are you alright?" Shelby said in a hurry as soon as the call connected.
"I'm fine. There's no need to worry. I'm friends with the guy who owns the place, so we just talked it out and went home."
Shelby heaved a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness. I was so worried something might happen to you. I wouldn't know what to say to my brother if that happened."
"It's all good, Shelby. I'm more than capable of handling something like this. Please don't hesitate to call me up in the future if anything else happens to you."
"Alright. Thank you so much, Wilbur. I'm so glad you're alright."
"Of course. Goodbye, then."
"Bye."
Shelby hung up the call, confusion still lingering in her head.
It seemed like her brother had been telling the truth. Wilbur really was quite powerful. Why did Ethan not mention a word about what Wilbur's job was, though?
Just then, Whitney entered the dorm looking rather forlorn.
Celine asked, "Did something happen?"
"I can't get to him. He switched his phone off," Whitney said, shaking her head.
Yasmine said, "Could something have happened?"
"Mister Willis is a VIP of the karaoke place. What could happen to him? I'm just worried that he might be annoyed by what Wilbur did just now, and we won't be able to get along as well in the future," said Whitney, glaring at Shelby.
Shelby let out a sigh, getting into bed and taking out a book to read.
