Matthew was a little speechless from being yelled at by his childhood friend.
Charlie was a great friend, except for that temper of his.
Moreover, he always had a temper if he had just woken up. He picked up the call because it was Matthew calling. Otherwise, he would never pick up no matter how long the phone rang. He would also make sure to get revenge on whoever called him for disturbing his sleep.
Matthew shook his head with a laugh and continued, “Wake up, CJ. This isn’t a small case. This is the biggest case of all.”
Charlie sneered at being just woken up. He put on his clothes and yelled angrily into the phone.
“What sort of big case is this? Do you have any idea what sort of cases I take on? They involve serial killers and high-intellect criminals!
“Is this all you have to give me? You don’t need to pull out the big guns over something so minor.”
Matthew held back his temper. If it was not for his wife needing a lawyer for a case, he would never have called Charlie! Poor Charlie had to be woken by Matthew over this when he only had three hours of sleep.
How could Charlie not blow his top? Anyone else would have yelled at Matthew too.
“Aren’t we buddies? Just answer this question.”
Charlie rolled his eyes at the other end of the phone. He finally calmed down slightly.
He began to get curious about the person Matthew wanted him to help the case with.
“We’re buddies, but these are two different issues. Tell me who you want me to help with the case. Tell me or I might just beat you up.”
Matthew smiled when he heard Charlie relenting slightly. “It’s my adorable, lively, gorgeous, and delightful wife.”
Charlie spat out the water he was drinking. He was in disbelief. He shouted at Matthew over the phone, “What did you just say?! You've finally found yourself a wife? You don’t need to lie about something like that. You have time to find me a better reason to take up this case.”
Matthew’s lips twitched. He looked exasperated. “What are you implying? It’s the fault of those other women who can’t get me interested enough.
