Ring, ring, ring!
They looked at the landline that kept ringing loudly and clearly, then Shirley and Fabian subconsciously shared a look.
After pausing for a few seconds, Shirley picked up the phone without hesitation.
Before she could say anything, she heard a familiar voice from the other end of the phone.
“Get Shirley on the phone,“ Carter ordered. Shirley’s hand on the phone tightened.
“Didn’t you hear me? Get someone named Shirley Brown to come to the phone. I know she’s in the villa,“ Carter urged impatiently.
However, less than two seconds after he said that, Carter suddenly realized something.
“Shirley?“
“It’s me.“ Shirley tried her best to keep calm. “ Carter, why are you calling this number?“
“I want to tell you that I’ll be able to avenge our dead child soon.“ Carter’s voice came over grimly.
His tone sounded deep and gloomy for some reason.
Shirley’s heart skipped a beat. “Carter, what do you mean? What are you going to do?“
“You’ll know what I’m going to do soon, but before this, I want you to come to meet me.“
Shirley wanted to contact Carter initially, so when he made this request, naturally, she did not hesitate to agree.
However, after Carter told her the meeting time and place, Shirley’s heart sank inexplicably.
The feeling was like that of listlessness and loss, and it took over her heart immediately.
