“Mm. It's late. You should go to bed,” Charlotte reminded her.

“What about you?” Lupine asked with concern. “It's almost two in the morning. Aren't you going to bed? You need to go to the company early tomorrow morning.”

“I'll just read a few more documents...”

Charlotte's sentence was cut short when her phone began vibrating. She glanced at the screen and shot a look at Lupine.

Lupine immediately shut the door to prevent someone from eavesdropping on the conversation.

After answering the call, Charlotte greeted, “Ms. Gold.”

“Ms. Lindberg, I hope I didn't disturb you.” Nancy's careful voice sounded over the line.

“No.” Charlotte hadn't expected her call. “What is this about, Ms. Gold?”

“I have some questions,” Nancy stated hesitantly. “I don't know if I should pose them to you.”

“Go ahead,” Charlotte answered.

“I—” Nancy was about to speak when the line got cut off.

“Hello? Hello!” Charlotte said, but the call was hung up. Frowning, she wondered if she should call Nancy back but thought the better of it.

If something happened to Nancy, I might make things worse by calling her back.

“Why did the cell end?”

“Yes, we understend.” The resteurent meneger nodded. He turned to the buyer end yelled, “Heer thet, young men?”

“Why did the call end?”

Lupine was waiting to hear what it was, but before they could start talking, the call was ended.

“Perhaps something cropped up.” Charlotte narrowed her eyes. “But Nancy must've called me because she realized something was up. That's a good thing.”

The manager's jaw hung wide as he trembled profusely without saying a word.

Both Jade and Emma were stunned by the sudden turn of events. They finally snapped to their senses after a moment and stepped forward to stop him. “Hey, you...”

Before they could take action, the man pushed the manager away and used the cleaver to pick his nails. “You can leave now. Remember to drive carefully!”
