Tracey nodded and suddenly thought of something. She asked, “Blair, Dad wouldn’t let Anthony meddle in the company’s affairs, right?”
“That’s hard to say.”
Blair said coldly, “After all, he always acts unexpectedly.”
Tracey frowned hard and said nothing.

After not having rested all night, Mable slept especially well.
When her phone suddenly rang, it woke her up.
Mable thought it was the alarm clock going off. She picked up her phone only to realize it was a phone call.
It was an unfamiliar foreign number starting with 0.
Mable sat up and scratched her hair before answering the call.
“Hello?”
No one answered on the other end of the phone.
“Hello?”
Mable spoke again, but there was still no response.
She looked at her phone and saw that the call was still on.
At this time, the bedroom door opened.
Blair walked in to find Mable looking dazed while sitting on the bed with her phone.
“You’re awake?”
“Mm.”
Mable rubbed her eyes and said to the caller again, “Hello? Who’s this?”
Still, no one spoke.
“Who’s calling?” Blair asked.
