Celine took out her phone.
"I'll call Preslie and ask her to give us the recipes right away!"
The phone suddenly rang.
Preslie was speaking with the renovation crew when her phone rang. "Sorry, let me take this call."
Checking the caller ID, Preslie stumped.

After all, her mother was still unconscious when her father and sister asked for the patisserie.
Besides, she never asked how her mother was doing and if she had woken up.

Preslie pressed the answer button.
"Mom," Preslie said with a hint of concern, "How are you doing?"
Celine was not in the mood to discuss her health with Preslie.
